except I'm not complaining, so unless you mean yourself, that doesn't make any sense

I don't know, maybe I'm a biased Leftovers shill but this show sounds incredibly fascinating and a much more interesting direction to take Watchmen than just "Dr. Manhattan fights Superman!". I'm sure it'll be very, very controversial and inspire hot takes from both sides though considering they made Rorschach a symbol of white supremacy.

Ok saw the podiatrist today.  Gave me a cortisone shot and off my feet for two weeks.  Then one week on, then I see her to decide on surgery.

Well now.  THIS has the potential to be very interesting.  And very uncomfortable for some.

 

Much like a certain comic released in the 80s, then.

ok, this is complaining 😛  dammit my main movie theater just raised their ticket prices to $13,99.  It was just $11.65 the last time I went like 9 days ago.

yeah it does, even the non-recliner, non-reserved seating one 3 minutes down the road raised their prices to $12.25.  I know ticket prices go up but this was literally out of left field.

You would think seeing how cheap Tuesdays do, the theaters and studios would pick up a clue or two.

you would think.  I believe i have a Tuesday and a Wednesday cheap day at different theaters, so I won't complain about, but yeah raising the prices much more on the other days, I guess to make up the difference, doesn't help me out much

i agree of course they did because it's a logical extension of the character from the original text.

Just now, The Futurist said:

Sure.

If you thought Rorschach was the good guy I think you missed the point of Watchmen...

Sure.

glad we agree and you can finally apply critical thinking over reactionary whining. big moment for you.

yeah the movie downplays these aspects i think, but in the comic he's Travis Bickle the superhero for sure.
