Watchmen out next Fridaty! (can't find the original topic)

Post by orald »

So Watchmen is coming out in a week and a half, i.e next Friday, March 6th. :D

Only problem(for me that is, not for you dirty yanks) is, what's the screening date for Israel? :? I tried searching it but it only ever gives me the USA one.

This is the first time I'll go watch a movie in cinema since, like...when LoTR: RoTK came out here. That's like 5 years!

Well, I'm no big cinema fan, but I can't wait to see it in good quality, and I'm not sure the internets can provide me with a high quality copy.

I do lament the fact that I'll have to endure Hebrew subtitles though.
And the unwashed masses. :|

" Nature beauteous form
Contains a lovely essence
Called by some- decay
By this lovely presence
New life finds its way.
Tears shed silently
Are but water of soul
They bring new life
To the pain of being--
A separation from that seeing
Which death makes whole."

I'm not sure when it's coming out in Israel, but I luckily got tickets for an IMAX showing on March 8. I haven't seen a movie in IMAX before but I hope it's worth it considering that movie tickets are overpriced to begin with.

I'll stay with the graphic novel.

Well, it's coming here on Thursday night, midnight to be exact(so kinda makes it Friday too).

My ex watched it too, so I've heard of some of the changes, and will ask about the ending now.

What's worst is that the movie could have been faithfull to the graphic novel, but that new ending just reeks of Hollywood producer meddling.
