- Which worked perfectly for the movie. I liked that the TV show showed the comic ending quite a bit. -- nm - Remlik May 4, 12:11
- I have no issues with that. Some things would be silly to adapt. Specifically a giant squid beast destroying NYC. -- nm - Jovian May 4, 12:05 3
  - This is something I really liked about the miniseries. They leaned into the silliness of that plan. - Beryllium May 4, 12:06 1
    - the mini series was also spectacular. I still cant believe Josh Hawley played himself in that. :P -- nm - Jovian May 4, 12:12
  - I thought the HBO show actually handled it not bad, but had zero problem with the movie switch. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request May 4, 12:06
- It would have been more fun and less dour to keep the original ending. heh. -- nm - Beryllium May 4, 12:03
ah, but you're forgetting about Richie Rich. -- nm - Beryllium May 4, 12:02 4
- hehe. I just will never understand the Watchmen hate. Its almost perfect. -- nm - Jovian May 4, 12:03 3
  - It's worth it even just for Rorschach. - Beryllium May 4, 12:05 2
    - just perfect casting -- nm - Jovian May 4, 12:11 1
