Does This Inkblot Resemble a Pyromaniac?

Much as I love The Watchmen, I'd rather see it retold FOR THE SCREEN, than just being a shot-by-shot replica of the comic book. I quite enjoyed 300 as a comic (although I felt it was flawed), but the film is one of the worst pieces of cinema it's ever been my misfortune to sit through.

I don't hold high hopes for this, to be honest.

If this is true to the original it will be BY FAR the best superhero movie to come out since the whole idea became fashionable/trendy again in Hollywood.

Boy am I excited for this. Every shot I see looks picture perfect.
@PVIII: Yeah Supervision is right.. they were trying to do the Black Freighter as an animated film on the DVD. It gives me hope that he understands all the importantance of the media in the story, even if it can't all be included.

Zack Snyder said "maybe" in a fan Q&A. [www.watchmencomicmovie.com]

@PVIII: I seem to remember hearing that black freighter was going to be a separate release on DVD.

Looks great. Just hope Zac keeps the ending. Anyone know if he's cutting the comic within the comic?
