Who watches the Watchmen comments?
Posted in others on November 27th, 2009 by admin – Comments OffI finally got to see Watchmen last night and in talking about it afterwards, I was reminded of a comment I read on the blue that I cannot for the life of me find again. I have been looking for a couple of hours now and beginning to wonder if I made the whole thing up. Please help. The basic argument of the comment was that the person who should have directed Watchmen is some kid whose still in high-school right now and has been watching and critiquing superhero movies his whole life. The comment suggested that this hypothetical director has been making his own movies in the backyard and if given another decade to hone his craft would be the ideal film-maker to properly bring Watchmen to the screen. I think that I have probably paraphrased that pretty poorly. I remember the comment as being fairly long and getting a pretty good number of favorites. I have tried a bunch of different search terms and have been reading through the old Watchmen threads with no success, maybe someone out there is better at this than I am.
