The Ultimate Cut's my personal favorite version, but I think it ends up being a toss-up for people between that and the DC.

In regard to the pacing, I don't think the Black Freighter really messes with it. The film doesn't really have a solid pace to begin with and making it longer doesn't really detract from anything, I don't think.

I'll be right back. I gotta go see a man about a mule.

Why did they replace Rorschach with Dan in the scene where he goes to tell Adrian about the masked killer theory?

Also, how did Sally know Eddie's name? Because none of the Watchmen knew who he was, so why would he have to wear a gimp mask in the novel?

I'm confused.

Oh, and do you think Eddie knew it was Adrian when he came to kill him? Like, from his perspective, could he have seen his face and knew it was him?

Idk.. Just a few questions.

He had to wear the mask in the novel because he received a nasty scar across his face that anyone who knew him would recognize if they saw him dressed as the Comedian. And presumably he told Sally his name.



Adrian didn't show up at Blake's apartment in disguise, so I would assume he did.

But.. He's not wearing a gimp mask in the movie. So wouldn't they know all along he was Blake?

Yeah, especially since he knew what Adrian was doing he would assume it was him anyways.

I seriously fucking love the intro of the movie, it's so good imo.

We all know that's not THE reason.

If it's just to cover a scar, why was not ANY kind of mask equally as effective ?

He had to use a goddamn GIMP MASK ?

It either says something about him, or like we've discussed before, it's a statement from Moore about The Comedian's sadism.

lol, my bad. I watch the movie a lot and I find it very interesting, I just tend to forget. I indulge too far.

It is interesting, and its very impossible to indulge too much.

This isn't a question, just a minor detail that I experienced last night that I thought was really cool. You see, my dad isn't really that big into...anything. He does love some movies, but only a very minor few. He tends to fall asleep through almost anything and I think most of his love in the arts tends to go towards music and literature. And when we saw Watchmen a few years ago, he thought it was "okay" and nothing else. So last night, I was in my room and I had one of the making of Watchmen close to me, which I'd just taken out for nostalgia, I guess and he told me he had read this book called "The Shadow of the Wind" and he said the main character reminded him of Rorschach. Again, just very cool and surprising given he wasn't that very impressed with the film and he tends to forget about movies very easily.

That's pretty cool actually, though it's probably a testament to the effect Rorschach has on people.
