I will put up a full review on Friday after I get up at noon. Regardless, if you ever enjoyed superhero comic books or films, I strongly recommend you check out the graphic novel, originally published in 1986. I started collecting comic books again at that time, and kick myself for not picking up Watchmen because it was two or three issues in. My guess is they'd be worth around $100 for the set even in Very Good condition, even though the series has been collected and published repeatedly in the past 23 years. I even got a hardcopy for my father-in-law for Christmas this year, although I don't know if he's read it or not.
Hrmm.

Matt R. and I plan to go at midnight in Sherwood.
The Pirate-ship story is supposedly not going to be in the cinema version much at all - but it was filmed, and is going to be included in the DVD box set.
Or so I have heard from fairly reliable sources (read: ones who keep up with comic and entertainment news way more than I).
That's exactly what the Newsweek article said. The article also complained how closely the director followed the story line of the book, rather than put some of his own views into it.
We're going to see it Friday night at Bridgeport. I understand there was a slight change to the end. Also, the running time is 2:43 so be warned!
I'm seeing it at Bridgeport on Friday afternoon with some folks from work.
