Nixon's nose, Nixon's nose.
Jimmy the Squid:
I saw it again last night and was just even more convinced that the films ending made more sense than the comics. I'm ok with the genetic engineering aspect of the Giant Psychic Brain Squid, that makes total sense but the fact that there was no mention of psychics or any kind of superpowered humans other than Dr Manhatten anywhere in the books made it seem really unbelieveable. I mean I know a blue atomic man is kind of stretching things but at least it was introduced and made a part of the actual story. Moore wrote this really complex world full of compelling and interesting characters with everything being explained and suspension-of-disbeliefable and then fucked the entire thing by going "Oh and there are psychics too lol" at the end.

Heh, look at any non-fanboi review of the film and you'll see the same complaints. Honestly I thought she was better than Matthew Goode, but not by much.

Nixon's bill. It took over half his screen time for me to stop inadvertantly concentrating on his... snozz is maybe the best word for it.
Many parts of the film were good. Some bits were great! As a whole it's not a great film though. I'm not sure if it's even a good one. I don't think it's one people are going to talk about much next year.

No. No. No, and no.

I think it was supposed to look kinda like a dick if you looked at it straight on.
