    Interesting. Answers a long held question.

    Still a bad call. The comic told the story in a few panels of the people behind the squid attack. It wouldn't have added a half hour. Maybe cut out the stupid sex scene to save some time. The squid was the best part of the comic. Turning the page and revealing the squid attack was shocking. Bad move. I disagree completely.

      Unfortunately, the movies don't always care what the comic book fans think and we just have to deal with that. Being able to go back and see that page turn is something you'll always have with you though. If they had thrown it in and didn't put their all behind it, it could have been an even bigger disappointment. We'll never know, but maybe that's something to keep in the background thoughts to make it a slightly positive thing? Thanks for watching and contributing!

      @@splashpages Yeah, I don't expect the movies to match the comics. But that movie was so close to the comic that it was almost like...why did you change the major twist??? Also, I might be a hypocrite right now because I hate when people complain that the movies changed from the comics lol.

    It was a good call. Excellent adaptation. The only other one of equal calibur would be V for Vendetta.

      Didn't they change V for the movie to make him way more likeable? I remember something about them changing the movie's message or V's actions to make it more palatable.

    I love Watchmen, but from a story standpoint(comic or movie) the squid just never worked for me, that's why I lost it in a good way when they did what I always thought should have been the incident. Mr. Moore totally missed something that the smartest man on earth would have clearly seen and did.

      Nice! Sounds like you enjoyed the movie. Same here! Thanks for watching!

      Okay whatever you say lol. The squid was an alien presence that would unite the world. You have no idea what you're talking about. Keep yapping and yapping and yapping and yapping and yapping soldier
