When people say the Watchmen movie is better than the comic

the scene where he becomes dr manhattan is literally kino, spoilers: the music helps a lot
It's unironically got a better ending, the story has a circular quality to it after the change. Shame about all the ponderous slow-mo, though.
DOES THE COMIC HAVE KICK-ASS FIGHT SCENES IN SLOW MOTION?
DIDN'T THINK SO!
The change to the ending made Comedian's character pointless.
Snyder misunderstood Watchmen. His film glamourizes superheroes, while the comic made fun of them.
>OH DEAR OH ME OH MY

moore is a hack
I think that depends on how fast you read each panel
Jesus Christ, look at those digits.
Quints confirm, movie is better.
whoa
The Comedian still serves as a catalyst for the whole story, and helps highlight the hypocrisies in the other heroes.
YES I LOVE WHEN MOVIE GOES *BAM BAM* ME LOVES MOVIES
Comic is better but i liked both.
snyder confirmed for director of the century
The movie's ending doesn't make sense. The whole point of the squid is that it's a truly alien threat that unites the earth. Dr. Manhattan isn't an alien, he's an American and a weapon that America uses to end wars. His attacking the USSR wouldn't deflate tensions, it would increase them.
He got wrapped up in his work, tried to understand Rorschach and it backfired. He wanted to write a detailed analysis of Kovacs to get famous...ended up getting mindfucked. I didn't like it either but I could kinda see what Moore was going for
I CLAPPED
Oh yeah comics, that dead medium with none of the narrative depth of a novel and none of excitement of a film/tv action sequence
Anyone who doesn't think the directors cut is better than the comic is a pleb. Favorite Snyder film by far.
this
But.. it doesn't glamourize them at all
No it doesn't
Dr Manhattan vs Dr strange? Dr Manhattan vs dormamu?
You are retarded. You're literally non-functioning. You're describing something with a facade of logic but it literally is meaningless and has absolutely no correlation to reality.
>the music helps a lot
yes it was lifted from a much better film
I liked the cartoon show better
Manhattan was discovered, not made. By attacking everywhere at once he becomes the alien threat, without the introduction of a weird plot device which had little relation to the rest of the story. It's a better story structure.
It’s not better than the comic but it’s a great companion to the novel and the differences between them are justified and artistically valuable. Not everything is a war.
It's not a matter of which one is better desu. They both took different approaches to the "masked vigilante" characters. While the comic was satirizing the concept, the movie treated them in a more conventional way, while still placing them in a gray moral area. And neither of them is wrong to be honest. Also, I gotta credit the movie for the cinematography, which fit the tone perfectly, not being over the top, while still having ingenious fight choreography and dramatizing everything just enough. I liked both of them, although the comic still has an edge in terms of its originality in its approach to the subject, while the movie attempted to adapt it for a more mainstream cinematographic release while still keeping what made the comic great.
