I'm doing a case study on the Watchmen for my film course, and I had heard that Snyder had actually talked about the CGI for the squid, but there were many conflicting stories.

Good movie to do a case study on by the way, been in production for 20 years, lots of lawsuits.

This reminded me that i still need to read the comic before i see the movie, i want to be one of those people that goes: meh, the comic/book was better. I "bought" the entire series a while ago but never got around to read it, i shall do so now!

he dropped it because it required too much back story for it to work.
that's the only story i've heard. its exclusion raises a few questions.
par example:
the tales from the black freighter. yeah, it's not in the film but they're releasing an animated version and such. without the book's artist designing the squid, what relevance does it have?
bubastis. adrian veidt's mutant cat thing. never gets named in the film, never even really acknowledged by the characters. it's just sort of there. without veidt's genetic research for the squid also leading to bubastis, what the hell is it? i can't imagine what it was like watching it having not read the book. "ok, so... veidt has a pet... mutant... tiger..... what?"

will be seeing this on my birthday which is this sunday.

Marlin Clock · March 05, 2009, 11:07:59 AM

Also the movie calls them the watchmen when they're the minutemen right?

I'm gonna see it, but I still have the same problems with the original story that I aired a few months back when there was another thread for this.

no
they call the Crimebusters the Watchmen. the 70s team

it is a little annoying but it gets said like 2 or 3 times and is never really focused on
it ruins the poetry of the title though

DigitalLemonClock · March 05, 2009, 11:34:57 AM

im not gonna see it

Marlin Clock · March 05, 2009, 11:44:10 AM

What was the significance of the title again?

buttplug · March 05, 2009, 11:59:04 AM

Gonna see it tomorrow.

A few things, I like that the "watchmen" are never outed, and it can be seen as either the group of heroes, the government or Manhatten/Veidt depending on your view
