All Along The Watch(men)tower

      So last Monday, I got a free pass to see Watchmen for free a few days early. Naturally, I feel I need to blooooooog about this. I'm sure there's enough in depth reviews that I won't go into too much depth, just would like to say a few things. (Some stuff may be spoilerific or just not make sense without knowledge of Watchmen, but if you haven't read the comic by now, seriously why not? I actually bought a physical copy of it, but I read it in for free online first. There are ways you can do this too.)
      First of all, I feel like enjoyment of this movie is probably inversely proportional to how many times you've read the book or how obsessed you are with it in general.
      Yeah, there's a lot of important stuff left out, but this is to be expected in pretty much any movie based off a book. Books are longer than movies. Get over it. Read the damn thing again if it means that much to you. There's only so much to be expected
      There are more fight and sex scenes in the movie than in the book. I have no information to support this, but this is my theory for how things went:
Zack Snyder: "Hey guys, I want to make Watchmen into a movie finally"
Evil Hollywood Moneybags: "You're the 300 guy right? Soooo... this will have lots of violence and some relatively pointless titties right?"
ZS: "But... those aren't in the book"
EHM: "TITTIES AND SLOW MO FIGHTAN"
ZS: "le sigh"

      Now most importantly, Watchmen parodies!
Watchmen Cartoon Intro
PvP Comic Parody
WatchmeX - Wiki about the 90's XTREME comic and other spin-offs
And finally, Alan Moore sabotages the movie

P.S. Almost forgot one more!

    quick question in which I'd like to ask if you don't mind.
    I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your thoughts before
    writing. I have had a tough time clearing my thoughts in getting
    my thoughts out there. I truly do enjoy writing but it just
    seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are generally lost just trying to figure out how to begin.

    Any recommendations or hints? Thank you!

  37. I think that everything posted made a bunch of sense. But, consider this, suppose you added a little information?
    I ain't suggesting your information isn't good,
    but suppose you added a title to possibly get folk's attention? I mean "All Along The Watch(men)tower" is a little vanilla. You might peek at Yahoo's
    home page and note how they create post titles to grab people to click.
    You might add a related video or a pic or two to grab people excited about what you've written. In my opinion, it would bring your posts a little livelier.
