I'd go for the Director's Cut. Ultimate Cut is more of a ''made for the fans'' type of a cut with tons of extras, but the Tales of the Black Freighter side story, while on its own is great, feels more like a padding that doesn't move the plot forward and instead breaks the entire pacing.

@@EditedAF987 the original comic critiqued and satirised the concept of superheroes by showing how morally grey and flawed they can be. The movie shows that well. It even talks about Dan's erectile dysfunction. Also, moore glamorised ozymandias and portrayed him as a total badass when he made him stop a bullet with his hand. They have to be shown as badass to be convincing career-superheroes. Silk spectre in the alley fight was a little too unrealistic though.

I wouldn't say Snyder missed the point. I think it would be unfair to say that. I _would_ say he made a couple boneheaded decisions here and there that I didn't like, or that I personally wouldn't have made. But it really doesn't detract much from the overall film, which is still a clever film, mainly because it is so slavishly faithful to its source material. And ultimately, this is pretty much the best Watchmen film adaptation anyone could have possibly hoped for, so no one should really be bitching too much, I feel. It isn't perfect, but it _is_ quite good, and it's absolutely beautifully shot and nice to look at. No, it's not better than the book. No film adaptation ever is.

The whole point of the fake alien ending was to satirize the Cold War. The point was that the entirety of the Cold War was driven by ludicrous fear from both sides. The soviets were worried that the Americans were gonna make the first move, the Americans were worried that the soviets were gonna make the first move, so as a result both sides ended up living in constant fear, when in reality neither one would have done anything had they not thought the other side would. The idea that the only thing that could unify these two enemies would be a giant alien squid highlights the absurdity of the Cold War. By changing the ending from an alien to Dr. Manhattan, it defeats the whole point that Moore was trying to make about humans as a whole. We fear the unknown more than anything else, and there is nothing we would fear more than some potential enemy that we know nothing about. By having the "enemy" be completely made up, Moore points out just how stupid and fearful and irrational the human race is. But if the "enemy" is Dr. Manhattan, the the fear isn't really that irrational, is it? Because we know Dr. Manhattan exists, and we know just what he is capable of, thus completely justifying any and every fear that any human may have about him.

@Professeur Râleur I don't think you understand what Snyder's vision for the DCEU Superman was. You see, this more somber and contemplative Super was not like, the definitive version of Superman for this universe. Over the course of 5 movies, consisting of Man of Steel, BvS, his Justice League, and 2 more Justice League films directed by him, Superman would gradually grow into the traditional hopeful and optimistic Superman we know and love, giving him a character arc. Unfortunately, because of what they did to Justice League, we never got to see that arc to it's full conclusion

I thought Rorschach's motives were well explained. The story began with him thinking humanity is too evil to be saved and in the end he demanded "Armageddon" be allowed to play out honestly because to him it was justice and the fulfilment of the Watchmen mission - to stop evil once and for all 🔥 Adrian instead believed a massive sacrifice and shock could save the good in the world by waking everyone up to an appreciation of cooperative unity even if it's cause was fear. As the Bible says with conflicting words in Deuteronomy "Fear the Lord your God and serve him only," and in Mark "Fear not but only believe." What is right? As the Watchmen story says, "I leave it in your hands."

The problem with the Watchmen movie is that if they were gonna adapt it, it should've been a miniseries done in 2020. The reason for that is that Watchmen was released in monthly issues & because of that, the issues are cover lots of material but also are closed off so they can focus on only one thing like the history of the minutemen, Rorschach's philosophy/mentality, the origins of Doctor Manhattan, etc whereas film does centrally focused continuous stories well but that's not Watchmen. But also, the context of when it was written, it was a commentary on not just the superhero genre at the time but also the global politics. When Watchmen came out, superheroes dominated the comic book market & other genres were a minority in comics but also, it came out from 1986 to 1987 when it was still the Cold War & tensions between the US & Soviet Union were rising again to the worst they'd been since the 60s (which is why you constantly see things like references to nuclear war, namely little boy and fat man which is a reference to the nuclear bombs that were dropped on Hiroshima & Nagasaki respectively or the Soviets invading Afghanistan) to the point to where it was a terrifying threat that a nuclear war would've started. When the movie came out, there were only 2 MCU films, 2 out of 3 Nolan Batman films were released, the Raimi Spiderman trilogy wrapped up 2 years prior, you had a couple others but superheroes were not the biggest thing in movies/television in 2009 nor was there any serious global event going on that everyone was afraid of destroying the world directly. However, in 2020, superheroes DID dominate movies & television, not to mention the "you know what" happened where people were terrified of the world ending because of it. So a Watchmen miniseries would have been more relevant 3 years ago now (my gosh how quickly time goes by) but would've had to be modified to fit today & comment on the state of comic book films then not to mention the tensions surrounding the "you know what".

Then it would've received even more hate from hardcore comic book nerds for not being faithful enough to the source material (as if it didn't get enough, even though it was extremely faithful, save for a few moments), and flopped even harder for being too far removed from the typical superhero adaptations the world had come to expect over the last decade. It came out just in time, and only gets most of the hate from dedicated Snyder haters. It's a masterpiece! We got a modern sequel series and it stunk!

But being a fan of films, collector’s editions & alternate cuts, that big boxed set collector’s edition just kept calling my name. So I shelled out more money than I should spend and popped in the Ultimate Cut that night. I was blown away even with the animated film spliced in, it worked. It also made me a Zack Snyder fan. Loved his Ultimate Edition of Batman Vs Superman as well. His Director’s Cut to Justice League, while better, was still kinda boring though. And 300 is way too overrated.

I think the Ultimate Cut is the definitive version. Tales of the Black Freighter is very important allegorical foreshadowing for Watchmen’s overall narrative, and I don’t think it bogs down the long runtime whatsoever. For me, it feels just as long of a movie watching experience as the Director’s Cut, which is a testament to the UC’s pacing

I wish a cut would fix the ending. Instead of having the weird ending change with Manhatten being framed for destroying New York, it’s the actual comic ending with the fake Alien. It really doesn’t make sense. It’s such a masterpiece. Frame by frame exact representation of the comic on the screen, but then he just changed the ending. It really made me dislike the movie.

I like the Black Freighter as a standalone, but with the rest of the movie it feels kind of jarring. Snyder himself prefers the Director's Cut.

What I didn't like about the directors cut is the interruptions by the director explaining some shit you don't care about, sometimes this is done over the movie it self ,In my opinion don't buy the directors cut.
