Watchmen - A Brief Note.

Posted on 16:54 by Unknown
Ticket sales for Watchmen went down about 67 percent for its second weekend. This, for a big, expensive movie, is so not good. But I am very grateful that Warner Bros. blew so much money and effort to give me an evening of single-minded nerdjoy. And, if they had it to do all over again, I bet they would have told me and those like me to get bent and made a movie with 50% less plot and 50% more fightin'.
