When I first learned that the WB was taking on the monumental task of adapting the Watchmen for film I was surprised. I mean taking what is regarded by most as the single greatest graphic novel in the history the comic book industry and making a movie out of it, that takes a set. A huge set.
Watchmen was a 12-issue deconstruction of the conventional superhero archetypes. It was brilliantly crafted using several literary and artistic techniques that have influenced practically every comic book creator and many filmmakers since. But to take it and squeeze it into a two hour movie, I had my doubts. I still do. I personally don't think it should be adapted, some stuff just does not translate and I did not think the Watchmen would.
But there is money to be made so i caved and I at least thought, okay, if you are going to do it, do it as a multi-part mini-series on HBO. Then you could get into everything. Two hours...you're going to lose so much.
It doesn't...
