I never read the graphic novel, but have always been familiar with the story and characters via friends or reading about it online. I always loved the story, but never had much of a "visual" idea of everything other than what was in my head.
Ive been hearing a LOT of people complain, and they sounded very "fan-boyish", about the look of the characters and whatnot that has been released on the net.
I have no problems with the looks, but mainly again, due to having never read the actual graphic novel itself.
but with Alan Moore pretty much against any movie based on his stuff, and all the 'fan boys' whining about the looks, it seems to have a more severe "cult classic" type fan base that seems to be more unforgiving than most materials, at least to what I have seen.
I thought the script was fantastic, and seemed very true to the feel to what I was familiar with, but do you think with no support (from what I heard last) from Moore, and rampant fanboys saying "The comedian looks too bad-ass" and similar, will hurt the movie much?
I know Ill be seeing it, but then again, im not a hardcore Watchmen fan, but I am very happy with everything I have ever read up on it.
