Wasn’t a big fan of the comic. Didn’t figure I’d like the movie any better. |

I don't revere Watchmen the way most comic aficionados do...I think its fine. Synder's Watchmen seemed pretty much definitive to me. I really don't see the point in doing it again unless someone really wants to see an ending just like the comic. |

I'm a big Lindelof fan but this seems like a terrible idea. Judging from his Instagram posts, he has the same feeling. |

...what? Jeremy Irons as Adrian Veidt / Ozymandias is poor casting. He's supposed to be a prime human, not in decline and wanting to marry his son. Quote: On May 22, 2018, Lindelof posted a five-page open letter to fans of the comic book series wherein he revealed that the television series would not be a direct adaptation of the source material or a sequel to it either but instead would depict a new, original story.[9] On August 17, 2018, it was announced that HBO had given the production a series order for a first season set to premiere in 2019.[10] On September 20, 2018, it was reported that score for the series would be composed by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross.[11] So what I'm getting from this is we're getting a decent score but that's about it. |

I get the urge to do something original but give it a subtitle or something then so it's readily apparent that it's going to suck. |

I don’t know if the characters translate well outside of the context of the original work and I worry it will just be too tempting to swap in Trump for Nixon. |
