All the Blue Wiener You'll Ever Need

"I'm not locked up in here with all of you... you're all locked up in here with me."

Watchmen.

Saw it last night. I could have done without the demonization of fossil fuels, but that kind of puerile hysteria is too common these days to get my back up much.

Short review - I liked it, a LOT. I've been looking forward to this movie ever since I saw Terry Gilliam appear on Letterman's show back in 1989 wearing a bloody Comedian's smiley on his lapel. It's a long, slow, wet kiss for the graphic novel, and puts paid to Moore's claim that it could never be movied.

If you liked reading it, I can't imagine you not liking watching it.
