Quick poll: 'Watchmen'

I didn't get around to seeing 'Watchmen' this weekend -- and I'm not sure if I ever will. It just doesn't interest me.

But you tell me: What was the movie like? Great, good, ok ... or awful?

Watchmen is my favorite book. There are a handful of scenes that were truly brilliant (the opening, Doc Manhattan's origin), and a great deal of the film that did not satisfy me.

I would say that unless you're a fan of the book or are an action movie geek, which I don't think you are, Andy. I'm seeing it for a third time tonight, but that's because it was my birthday on Thursday and everyone knows this is my favorite book, so my friends keep getting me tickets as birthday presents.

It was good! I got my money's worth, at least (Even though I didn't pay for it)

I also saw I've Loved You So Long on Saturday night and it wasn't anything special--I will say that Kristin Scott Thomas was great and the screenplay did have its moment, but everything else was just plain bad.

Oh and Andy, I watched You Can Count On Me and that was garbage as well. The screenplay sucked and Linney shoulda have been nominated for a razzie---just kidding haha. But really, what was so special about Linneys performance that its the best from the decade by a female? She was nomination worthy and so was the screenplay, but Linney probably wouldn't make my Top 25 of the decade.

The opening 15-20 minutes of Watchmen will surely find its way onto my top ten list at the end of the year. Some of the most powerful, visceral filmmaking I've ever seen.

Oh, and just thought you should all know, I made a bet with a friend that I could sit through all of Epic Movie. It was worse than I expected. A lot worse. But I made $10. I expect you guys to lift me up on your shoulders and parade me through town.

I give Watchmen about a B

I'll say this, it's no The Dark Knight

but it's much better than 300
