    Zack Snyder did a fantastic job recreating many of the most iconic images in the graphic novel in this film. Jackie Earle Haley was born to play Rorschach, there is no one else who could do a better job or look more like his comic book counterpart. Also I highly recommend the 3-hour Director's Cut of this film. Crucial plot points that were cut, presumably for time, are put back in and helps to explain a couple of things.

    • @Umptyscope
      @Umptyscope 3 года назад +10

      Snyder _slavishly_ recreated scenes from the comic book to film. To where, if you saw the film and then read the comic, you'd think the comic was the official movie adaptation, but it was the other way around.

      To be fair there's barely any changes from the source. Like it's frame for prime the most comic book accurate movie I've ever watched. They leave out like one or two sayings and change the fake psychic aliens to atom bombs. I will say that I think Snyder didn't quite capture the myopic tone as well as he should, like it's very important to realize that none of the characters are in the right and I almost feel like maybe Snyder just got wrapped up in the cool superhero aspect

      In the original graphic novel, they don't have that jfk scene but in the "Before Watchmen" comic mini series that DC put out in 2012, it's shown that he is close friends with the Kennedys; He even kills Marilyn Monroe for Jackie! The government actually sends the Comedian on a BS assignment to get him away from JFK and he even cries when he learns of assassination. The series is really amazing and definitely worth checking out. Each character gets their own mini series with a different art/storytelling style that fits them.

    The reason the masked heroes are "retired" is because Nixon outlawed them. Rohrschach is the only one still running around in his costume- Everyone else has either just stopped wearing their custime like Night Owl, gone public like Ozymandias and the old Night Owl or is working for the government like Dr. Manhatten.
    Fun Fact: a lot of the songs in the soundtrack are already mentioned in the comic. if I remember correctly there is a song mentioned on either the first or last page of each chapter setting the musical tone for that chapter. so when you read it you already have a soundtrack in your mind.

    This film is amazingly faithful to the book...the comic was practically a storyboard for the film. I've never seen a greater effort made to be true to the source material. Even the casting was clearly done with an eye towards making the characters look the way they were drawn. There's really only one change of note, but it essentially gets you to the same conclusion in fewer steps, and I've got no issue with it at all. You should absolutely give it a read, though. The amount of detail in the book is astounding. It was the only graphic novel to make Time Magazine's list of 100 greatest books of the 20th century.

    Alan Moore wanted to make this story with actual, albeit not-that-famous, DC characters which were originally from Charleston Comics before they were bought by DC back in the day, but DC didn't green-light the project unless he changed them to original characters because they thought the subject matter was too controversial and they didn't want to damage the established characters' images. So each character here has a pretty straightforward "real" equivalent. Nite Owl I and II are based on Blue Beetle I and II, for instance. Dr. Manhattan on Captain Atom, the Comedian on the Peacemaker (John Cena played him in The Suicide Squad, recently) and Rorschach on The Question, and so on. They're not exactly like the characters that inspired them because they're modified to fit this story's tone by exaggerating some of their character traits and adding some stuff that may or may not be based on other well-know DC superheroes, as is the case with Silk Spectre I & II, whom seem to be mainly based on Nightshade but also include elements from Black Canary I & II. The irony is that despite DC's misgivings, Watchmen was one of the first comic book stories to be recognized as a superior work of art within the medium by both comics fans and non-comics fans, so that the term "graphic novel" started to be used to refer to this kind of thing in order to differentiate it from the regular "trashy" and "non-literary" comic books that were perceived as being for kids and lacking legit artistic merit.

    Adapting watchmen was deemed impossible bcoz the novel had 13 issues and so much material. Also the ending was completely different where instead of a bomb. It was a trans dimensional Octopus monster made by veidt

    • @glennwelsh9784

      Yes. In the graphic novel, Adrian's plan was to fool the world into thinking it was being invaded by interdimensional aliens to force the U.S. and Russia to unite in peace against the supposed threat, thus averting nuclear war. Adrian bioengineers a giant squid-like creature and teleports it into the middle of Manhattan, which results in millions of deaths. While it is a shocking plan, the squid creature was deemed so bizarre that Snyder and the scriptwriter felt that they needed to change the creature into an energy device Adrian uses to frame Dr. Manhattan for the destruction. So even though the plan is different in the movie, Adrian's goals are ultimately the same while managing to tie Dr. Manhattan to the story better than the novel does. John realizes that he has to keep Adrian's secret and leave Earth so the world will remain united against him, forever fearful that he may someday return to further smite them like an angry blue god.

    The HBO Max Watchmen mini series it’s incredible too, y’all should watch it now since it’s a sequel to the comics and this movie are the events of the comics, only the final events were different. (It’s not a spoiler, it’s important if you want to continue to the miniseries) Snyder and co-writers David Hayter and Alex Tse stuck pretty close to the source material for the film except for a pretty bold change to the ending. Snyder's Adrien Veidt essentially frames Doctor Manhattan, leveling several major cities with a weapon that leaves behind the same energy signature as the big blue guy. Moore and Gibbons also leveled cities, but they did so with a massive squid-creature from another dimension...sort of. In the comics, Veidt assembles a crew of scientists and artists in a remote location, telling them he's making a monster movie.
    They create a Godzilla-sized monstrosity, Veidt kills the crew to guarantee their silence, and then he drops the tentacled beast now temporarily alive thanks to Veidt's potent energy source on top of New York City, where it causes utter mayhem and a death toll in the hundreds of thousands. The result is the same, with the world's political powers tamping down war talks immediately to focus on the extraterrestrial and/or interdimensional threat that has clearly set its many eyes on Earth.
    The series won like 11 emmys, tons of others nomination and awards. Highly recommended. Another good reacting, love this channel.

    It was remarkable how well it was adapted. I was blown away.

      The fact that you think Rorschach is a hero and that you came out the movie liking him instead of despising him shows how terrible the movie is and how little Zack Snyder understands the characters he adapts.

It is a follow up to the book more than it is the film because, as far as im aware having never read it, it acknowledges details in the book not included in the film but it is a really fantastic series that deals with some serious issues and I would strongly recommend it! It's simply fantastic!!

    *A bit of history before the movie starts:*
    Sometime before the Vitenam war, all vigilantes were given a choice(Keen act by Nixon) to either retire, work for the government or publicly reveal their secret identity. Most of the Minutemen(1940s suited up cops) retired except Hollis Mason aka Nite Owl 1 (wrote a book and revealed his secret identity). Dr. Manhattan, Silk Spectre 2 (Laurie), Comedian chose to work for the government (secret identities intact). Veidt used his watchmen persona to start a company (hence publicly revealing his identity). Nite Owl 2(Daniel) retired. Rorschach refused and stayed a vigilante (hence was on FBI's most wanted list).
    *About the heros in general:*
    None of the heroes except Dr. Manhattan have any powers whatsoever. They are normal human beings with some training with masks, outfits and gadgets. They seem to be extra strong but that's just for cinematic purposes I guess.
    *About Dr. Manhattan:*
    Dr. Manhattan can bend space-time. So he can bend matter to his will and he sees all of time simultaneously. Like he says he felt fear for the last time but actually he is being ripped apart all the time and he feels all of that all the time. He doesn't have to go back in time per se because he is living that instant right now. According to the comics, he can see alternate realities like the cat in the Schrodinger's box. For instance, before the watchmen first meet(where comedian burns the map and all) the future didn't show a nuclear holocast and then he is paired up with Rorschach(decided through picking chits out of a box) to patrol, so he chooses to alter the outcome of the chit picking and changes it Laurie(hence they grow closer and make out on the roof during one of their patrolling nights). This is the universe where Manhattan's vision of the future is blocked by the temporal interference which the movie covers.

    Difference between the Comic and Movie:
    Almost all of the scenes are shot to be the exact same as the comic. If you read the comic, it'll be very hard to not notice that. The most glaring difference is that in the Alan Moore comic, Veidt drops a gargantuan alien squid on Manhattan and blames on an extraterrestrial attack, uniting the world and preventing nuclear holocaust.
    I am looking for all and any Batman/Superman references.
    Please comment if I got anything wrong or missed any clues.
