Watchmen

My fear is that they haven't eliminated anything. That it is all on the screen but because of the nature of movies it really can't all be on the screen so it is a series of hints and references to what fans will know happened in the book (see several Harry Potter movies and the last two LotR movies).

I don't want a perfect on-screen recreation of the book. I read the book, I've already had that experience. More so since this is a visual book.

But I'll be seeing it (though I hear it is about 23 hours long -- really, 2:43 -- so that may be tough). Probably next weekend, though.
