[@UltimateKyuubiFox]

I heard Robin Williams as Rorschach and went “What the-?” Before almost immediately going “. . . Hey, whoa.” That is super interesting. He was a fantastic dramatic actor, so there’s something about that idea that just hits me right in the intrigue nerve. Robin was incredible at portraying an almost pathetic vulnerability and that constant underlying feeling of isolation that hits Rorschach perfectly (e.x. One Hour Photo). So to add a real edge to that? To think how he would’ve handled the VOICE? Damn.

[@davidjames579]

He actually said "Aw! Come on now".

[@jordel2010]

He was an excellent dramatic actor as far as I'm concerned, more than people liked to give him credit for -something which still to this day baffles me.

[@prod.danterose]

Knowing that Robin Williams was considered for The Riddler AND Rorschach! Man…R.I.P. I think they would’ve been iconic portrayals. He was also offered The Joker in Tim Burton’s Batman, but that was only to negotiate the role with Jack Nicholson.

In the movie the scene when Dr Manhatten is born is really well done, the musical score is perfect. Thats the best part of the movie for me.

[@jaredcress4328]

agreed. I wish they would have spent more time in the movie on Dr Manhattan, his chapter in the original book was one of the most incredible pieces of fiction ever written. but I get the limitations of committing the whole story to film and time constraints and all and for what they ended up with I agree it was the best part of the whole movie.

[@TheNYCGoldenGlover]

It is the one part that pretty faithfully follows the narrative and look of the graphic novel. I am connviced they took a cue from the Warner motion comic which perfectly nails "Watchmaker" from every aspect, especially music. Check it out if you havent seen it yet.. About 16 hours long in total but worth it. "Watchmaker" and "the abyss looks inward" BY FAR being the best

[@jaredcress4328]

[@aurahoneydew9607]

Oh to have the ability to just poke a hole in parallel universes and pluck Blu-Rays because all those potential takes are fascinating. I genuinely had no idea on most of these and the more details I got the more I wanted to see these versions that sadly will never be. Even if bits are recycled in later versions they just won't hit the same. Like a Burton in his prime version and a Ultra grounded 9/11 take, and even Robin Williams! They're bizarre and different in the best of ways. Noticed I always appreciated comic movies that stray away from the source material and aim to be more innovative and awesome takes even if they're not "the best" there's a charm to them. Prefer them to have roots and flavoring of the iconic but still go all out on an ideas and be a movie first, like how Batman 89, Batman Returns, classic Superman , 2000s Fox, Universal, Paramount, and Sony Marvel movies and MCU phase 1 were handled, Man of Steel, BvS, and Joker. Even something like the bubble gum pop style of Suicide Squad has something I enjoy all be it feeling too soft for a film about murderous flamboyant psychopaths While having no intrigue on the Disney MCU and post Zack Snyder DCEU. I've read the books and wanting the exact same beats from would be selfish in a way and also while the idea that everyone in the audience is a die hard fan of the source is a romantic idea it's mostly a lie because of trends that results in watered down very bland movies people could pretend to enjoy. Wish we could drop the act and let go all out again.

Snyder didn't understood Watchmen. He was more into slowmotion scenes and explotions. He started with giving all the "heroes" in the film superpowers. Right in the first scene, where in the book the murder of Comedian is only mentions in flashback. Snyder had to ruin it all by showing a fight between two person with superhuman strength (smashing their fists through walls etc) that is the opposite of what the comic was about. Snyder also thought that Rorscach looks cool in his mask and fedora. Lets make him the misundertstood hero of the watchmen, a working-class-Batman. So he took out some of his lines and make him more "human".With Superpowers of course. Rorscach in the comic is a highly antisocial individual. A dangerous psychotic with personality disorders. But Snyder just makes him look misunderstood with cool lines and a little bit of PTSD maybe. Snyders other big mistake is that he made Adrian into a boring Bond villain. In the comic, Adrian is really sad by the murders he committed and even doubts his own plan. He is a philanthropist and a utilitarian. And a very complex character. But Snyder made him into a one-dimensional Bond villain. In my opinion Darren Aronofsky could had made a great adaptation in the form of a miniseries. Which we eventually we got but with only a few of the original characters who was completely out of character. BTW, excuse me for my bad English. I am from Sweden.

I like the idea of bringing the story into the modern day. The themes are still relevant. But of course it would need to be really well done so that it doesn’t lose the layers present in the original story. Snyder’s film was pretentious. He’s obsessed with slow motion in order to distract from the empty and surface level storytelling in his movies. His adaptation is superficial lip service that doesn’t understand the themes of the story. There is no depth because Snyder is more interested in ‘cool, dark, and gritty’ aesthetics. The story is about these heroes becoming the villains they were meant to stop by believing the ends justify the means. Snyder thinks it’s about the power these characters possess, which leads to his vapid presentation. I saw the movie first and thought it was totally forgettable and I made no connection to the story’s themes or messages. I had no interest in reading the comics after seeing the movie. Then, after many years, I saw the motion comic and was blown away by one of the greatest pieces of American fiction.
