[no photos of food here. It was dark!]
Snack the Movies: Watchmen.
Worked:
- Reverence in regards to source material
- Attention to detail
- Most costumes
- Casting of Rorschach, Nite Owl and The Comedian (and most incidental characters)
- Gummi Bears
Didn't Work:
- Soundtrack
- Overly-salty popcorn
- Casting of women (especially new Silk Spectre)
- Extra-heavy makeup effects (particulary "old age" and "Nixon")
- My drinking from a giant beverage during a movie this long while sitting three people in from the aisle
- Awkward sex scenes and 3/4 of the nudity
- Overlong conclusion and denoument
- General heavy-handedness
- Mars (boring, just like in the comic)
- Veidt's accent (which came and went)
Ultimately:
- Entertaining
- Flawed
- Not as bad as I feared it would be
- I should never get more than a small popcorn and drink
- Rorschach was great
