WatchmenEverybodyknows Posted:
Actually I liked Leonard Cohen’s entire “I’m Your Man” album, but a lot of the rest of his stuff is pretty bad.
As for the CanCon, I heard it was filmed in Vancouver, and there are some pretty hefty tax breaks you can get… maybe they’re “suggesting” a little scratch-back?
My personal favourite theory is that it is homage to the live-action Tick. (It did a gloriously “bad” job hiding it was filmed in Canada). (view post) |

WatchmenRead the book first, greatly enjoyed it. Very favorably surprised at the translation to movie. They did an excellent job matching actors to the original art (except Ozymandias, who ended up more arrogant Dutch prick and less Grecian God). Rorschach was awesome, but a few of his best moments were changed, unfortunately (largely to smooth over chunks that got edited out).
There is a lot missing from the book, but including it would have added another hour and a half easily, and I felt the plot changes were generally very well handled. Several of the 80’s social conflicts were removed, but probably because they’d seem forced today (think of early law and order or homicide).
Overall, easily the best comic-bookish movie I’ve ever seen (with Iron Man topping the family-friendly category).
Oh, fun side note – there is virtually no smoking in the entire movie.
Also, as I was leaving there were a trio of blondes “that movie was so cool, but it was sooooooo confusing” Log in to see images!
Regarding music – I thought the choices were generally excellent… although Leonard Cohen’s version of Hallelujah is easily the worst I’ve ever heard. Probably added for Canadian content or some such. Pity, since Patricia O’Callahan is Canadian (i think) and has a decent version. (view post) |
