But then he REALLY loves The Watchmen. And, I have a thing about loving differing points of view. <BR/><BR/>Jake said, "If she read the novel she'd understand it all." But, it's true this isn't her sort of thing and she only went 'cause Luke wanted to go and was home for the weekend. <BR/><BR/>I say, "Different strokes for different folks." And, "If we were all the same, life would be boring."Kimbra Kaschhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16955657301998255029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704325586983583256.post-67321671713405105252009-03-08T10:26:00.000-07:002009-03-08T10:26:00.000-07:00Sounds like you really enjoyed it, Kim.

I know I certainly did.<BR/><BR/>MacKenzie seems to represent the exact opposite of whom this film was intended for, but it's interesting to hear her opinions, as too often I find myself unable to see movies like this divorced of my fanboy sensibilities. More of the negative reviews for this movie came from those who did not read the GN, or from those who are not really into this sort of fare to begin with.<BR/><BR/>Still, if she had such questions, I can't help but feel it is the film's fault for losing the nuances in the translation to the big screen. Because all of her questions are certainly answered adequately in the book.David Batistahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16447011239238933425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704325586983583256.post-69240292329401741032009-03-08T09:11:00.000-07:002009-03-08T09:11:00.000-07:00I was so excited after seeing the movie.
