andrew13 Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 http://www.slashfilm.com/2008/08/15/kevin-smith-has-seen-watchmen-its-fking-astounding/ “I saw Watchmen. It’s fucking astounding. The Non-Disclosure Agreement I signed prevents me from saying much, but I can spout the following with complete joygasmic enthusiasm: Snyder and Co. have pulled it off. Remember that feeling of watching Sin City on the big screen and being blown away by what a faithful translation of the source material it was, in terms of both content and visuals? Triple that, and you’ll come close to watching Watchmen. Even Alan Moore might be surprised at how close the movie is to the book. March can’t come soon enough.” this makes me feel much better about the movie actually. now that a legitimate comic nerd has seen it and said that it's amazing, some of my fears of it being like "league" are gone.

heavyheavylowlow Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 I'll see it, but there's no way in hell Snyder is mature enough a film maker to have handled it correctly, there's going to be too much action and slow motion, it's just something we all have to live with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattramone Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 So long as there aren't Billy Corgan songs in the flick, I'm fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cosmonaut Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 He also wigged out over the 3rd Star Wars movie:http://viewaskew.com/news/sith/ Sith was pretty good. The problem is that everyone associated it with the other two newer star wars movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dynamitekid Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 the directors cut of daredevil was pretty good. The theatrical...not so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayeffscene Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 I liked Jersey Girl, Daredevil, and Episode 3. Oops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebiglebowski Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 the directors cut of daredevil was pretty good. The theatrical...not so much. This is the only version I have seen. I liked it, but my friends occasionally talk about how bad this flick was. I guess that explains it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacobe Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I liked Jersey Girl. as did I. I'd really like to find the Liz Phair song from it (although it may have ended up on something and I just missed it). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew13 Posted August 20, 2008 Author Share Posted August 20, 2008 http://www.cinemablend.com/new/Fox-Closer-To-Destroying-Watchmen-9886.html fox wants to bury the movie and never see it released. oh shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbbrew22 Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 all Kevin Smith was saying is that it was like Sin City in that it followed the comic. Even if you don't like Sin City that doesn't mean watchmen will suck. I'm stoked that they are following the comic so closely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew13 Posted August 20, 2008 Author Share Posted August 20, 2008 well they've already said they're cutting out the black freighter and all the supplemental sections, but they're going to be on the dvd i guess in like a 5 hr deluxe edition that follows the origional panel by panel.
