"The Watchmen" is one of my all-time faves. :D And one of the nice things to come out of the success of "300" is that the director, Zack Snyder, who was slated to work on the ill-fated "Watchmen", now pretty much has the carte blanche to greenlight the whole thing again. *squee* :) My biggest worry about the film, though, will be casting; I fervently hope they don't make the film into "The X-Men", which it's NOT. I want them to keep the middle-aged average-Joe-ness of Dan, show the utter bastard-ness of The Comedian, and so forth. I do think Snyder is knowledgeable enough and a fan-boy enough to keep it true; as a big-shot director now, he has the option (which I think he'll take) of calling more shots behind-the-scenes. I believe, when it gets done, that he'll do a great job. *crosses fingers*
