I read the comic a couple of week ago, and I really enjoyed it. Great themes. According to some online previews (grain of salt please), sounds like they were pretty accurate to the comic. I'll be seeing it friday =)

This was the comic that got me into reading comic books in the first place. Rorschach is easily the best anti-hero in the medium. Been looking forward to this for a while, especially since Snyder got the go ahead to direct it. You probably won't miss too much by not seeing it theaters. The action in the story really isn't that elaborate or extravagent, so I can't see the spectacle of the movie being too large.

And if your going to see it in theaters, wait a few months for them to release the extended directors cut in theaters in June.

I'm wanting to go see it this weekend, but the director's cut is tempting clicking in at a whopping 220 minutes long. almost four hours long. The Regular version of the movie is long in itself at 163 minutes. I'll probably end up watching both of them.

saw it tonight pretty accurate to the Book, there were a few scenes that made me wonder if I was watching a Porno, the sex scene's IMO took away from the movie, and I don't need to keep seeing Dr. Manhattan's twigs and berries every 2 seconds, I mean it's the freaking movies you can't tell me that they couldn't have done some tricky photograph to keep me from seeing that.

This just looks like a "wait for rental" for me. I'm not into comic books at all (or "graphic novels" if you want to be a prick) and movies based off comic books, video games, etc etc are usually god awful.

We've been doing well on the comic book front lately, Mesmer lol. But yeah, I'm still waiting for that good video game adaptation to come out.

I generally like movies from Gaphic Novels or comics. The Crow was a very good graphic novel and a pretty good movie. (They could have kept the follow on Superman or Batman movies (Except the Dark Knight ones.)

Hellboy's and X-Men have been good. At least it's not a rehash of past movies or movies from old TV shows. (No more Charlie's Angels, Beverly Hillbillies, Maverick etc.)

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By Basbear · Posted

      According to the website 2-4 weeks before the shipping starts, but that part is free currently. "Orders containing this item will be shipped separately 2-4 weeks after the player’s number is officially confirmed. Confirmation will take place no later than the start of the 2025 NFL regular season. Please trust your item will be produced and shipped as soon as possible." I think he's already confirmed the number, it just hit me about the jersey and maybe it was the free shipping(24$ ??) that was hit today.  you can call the team store, but I doubt they got any information.   goodluck!

      just hit the market?  it's been up there since the night we drafted him lol My question isn't about ordering it but if they're being sold in the team store yet, as that would signal them being shipped out sooner than later. I want the blue one and if the blacks won't ship for a few months, I'd rather wait to see if they put the blue out there before then.  But if they're shipping in the next couple of weeks, screw that, I'll order this now and get another blue later, hahaha. I'd also prefer the next step up in the quality, but again, not sure when they'll make those available.
