no need to be hostile with me guys, just a thought.

While I don't particularly want to see one, I reject the notion that a spinoff movie or prequel would somehow "detract" from WATCHMEN itself.

Hell no.

No Watchmen sequels, prequels or spin-offs. Period.

I think JEH himself put it best when it comes to Watchmen prequels or spin-offs:

"Only if it's a musical."

Hmm, I wonder. What would the Playbill look like . . .


Thought I might as well do it some justice.

I think JEH himself put it best when it comes to Watchmen prequels or spin-offs:

"Only if it's a musical."

One of the reasons Rorschach is popular is because he is also complex and somewhat mysterious.
