      At least make the god damn Daredevil game, and a worthy Superman game. Something so incredible and immaculate that humanity forgets Superman 64 ever existed at all. A game worthy of the original and (with new comics featuring the character coming out on the usual weekly or biweekly or monthly basis nonstop with no gaps from 1938 to present day) probably longest continually published superhero.

    Zack Snyder has said he only agreed to do Watchmen because if he turned it down there was a chance of someone who didn't love the source material making it. His goal was to compress large amounts of detail into every frame of the movie and during the editing process he was constantly battling with the studio execs over the length

      @zooparty1257 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      dildonius i think the ones who despise it hate the changes the film made from the source material and not the film itself. Its ironically way too much like a superhero movie where as in the book the focus was on whats behind the masks and how the characters are very normal, real people that dont have superpowers apart from Dr. Manhattan. In the movie theyre all overpowered as heck and are basically superpowered themselves.
      My opinion dont shoot me also im very tired and probably will forget i wrote this

      @@dildonius it feels like there's more people who don't like it then there actually are. It actually got pretty good audience scores (7.6 on IMDB, 71 on RT) and select critics gave it a perfect 100% rating, including Kyle Smith and Roger Ebert. It's just the film's detractors are very loud about their beliefs.

    If watchmen were a video game, it would have to be a RPG, in the Bethesda style, keep fighting to a minimum and a emphasis on world building and dialogue, have multiple protagonists with different but interwoven story lines, Rorschach investigating a case, The Comedian back when he was still a vigilante, Ozymandias exploring the world, Manhattan solving living his life simultaneously, etc... we can dream can’t we

    Wow, fucking Warner Brothers. If they didn't take so damn long to get the contract revised we could have had a pretty badass watchmen game I really like the idea of playing major events in the watchmen's past and going into more detail based on individual character experiences. It kinda reminds me of what the Warriors did in their game, it helps expand on characters you want to know more about in their past and it gives context into future events that actual happens in the movies. Damn shame we'll never be able to experience it.....

    • @Gammera2000
      @Gammera2000 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Mr. Anderson Ig get's plenty of praise, but I think that it's adaptations and prequels need more care put into them. (Before Watchmen was iffy, I liked the one for Dr Manhattan, but the others ranged from awful to ok).
      What I'd like to see, is a mini series that was treated sort of like Sin City, where they avoid doing to much deviation from the source. It'd allow for the thing to use more time, meaning that they wouldn't need to cut out huge parts of the story, and would probably allow for all of the character and plot development to take place in a cohesive, decently paced manner.

    • @cacaman1391
      @cacaman1391 8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Mr. Anderson The Watchmen comic is the only comic that got in Time's list of best books of the century. And it has got a lot of awards. The movie should have never happened, Alan Moore never wanted it to happen, it was just a cash grab (like any superheroes movie). And you know, when the actual creator does not want something to be made with his/her creation, it should be a respected decision. This movie to me is a graphic description of saying "I don't care who you are, will it give me money? Let's do it, it's all about the $$$"

      inverse Manhattan Two companies applied to the same publisher to do the same projects. They had plenty of space for interaction and the publisher liked bottle rocket's ideas, so they could've pitched them to the other team themselves.
      The combat system shown in the bottle rocket's game looks pretty much identical to the one used in the arkham series. The focus is on the main character jumping between opponents for smoothly transitioning attacks. It's hard to say much on the investigation mode as they never went far with it, but I find myself absolutely reasonable while talking about the combat system.

      Hunter Powell My problem with Moore is his own sense of superiority. I understand that as an artist he doesn't want others to ruin his works, and his anger towards most adaptations is definitely warranted. His condescension and general disdain towards fans is uncalled for, however. One prominent example is the fact that he basically said anyone who's a fan of Rorschach is a sociopath. Or when he said trying to analyze the Killing Joke is a waste of time. The man believes he's so above it all, and that's what irritates many fans.

  • @spartandumpster1158
    @spartandumpster1158 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I don't know if people liked or hated the Watchmen film. I watched it recently after finally reading the comic. Besides having to cut out some things for the movie's length (such as Rorschach visiting Moloch only once) and some other changes like making it clear that The Comedian shot JFK, and the changes to the ending, nearly the entire film was lifted straight from the comics. Most lines were taken directly from the comic, and I even liked some of the more obvious changes. If I remember correctly, in the comic, the original Nite Owl was just beaten to death, but in the movie, he goes down fighting, getting a few good punches in, I really liked that. One of the only things that I didn't like were in regards to Ozymandias, I feel like maybe they could've put in a few more of his scenes instead of some others, and the changes with his scenes. I preferred those guys freezing to death in his Arctic lab/home as opposed to dying on the moon. He seemed more complex in the comic, he was less obviously evil, and at the end of the movie he keeps his strong conviction despite everyone disagreeing, but in the comic he keeps a calm composure with his strong convictions until asking Dr. Manhattan and doubting himself "Did I do what's right?" Helped show the humanity of his character, that, even though it it was a pretty awful thing to do, he wanted to do what was best for the human race, and that it was a tough decision to make even for the "smartest man in the world."
