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.

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.

@@nobody127yago8 Dude, would you just shut up? All I did was pitch an idea for a film, and there you go on some political rant. This is why I hate both the far left and the right. You can't say literally anything without them taking it as an opportunity to "educate" you.

So make it about race... Just the the other one...🤔

The tv show wasn’t all about race. 😂 That’s just all you see if you’re triggered by honest discussions about race relations. Sad.

Almost ever time they showed the look of the different versions of watchmen they wanted to create i just started going " what the fu... Im happy that didnt happen"

One and possibly the only lacking thing in your wonderful documentaries is volume normalisation - some interviews and dialogues are very quiet, some are loud while all of that should optimally be on the same volume level as your narration.

Snyder's adaption was fine overall. But, unfortunately, his involvement in the watchmen project ruined his artistic vision he used to have when he did the 300 film, which was a masterpiece. Now he can't do anything else without referencing or paying homage to it. Like he did with Superman and Batman.

Could you ever talk about the decon frost solo movie

The 2009 movie, while it pales in comparison to the book, was, when taken by itself, fine. Snyder was about a fitting director as the movie was gonna get. He did the best as probably anyone was going to.

The Watchmen movie is a video game with actors in it. That’s the problem with it. Too much CGI. The writers cheated.

I love Snyder's Watchmen. Still believe it to be one of the best comic book movies ever. But I also wish to have Watchmen with Ray Stevenson as Rorschach. Rest in Peace, Ray Stevenson. You never gave us your Rorschach in full power, but you still gave us a lot of amazing performances Titus Pollo, Punisher, Volstagg to name a few. Rest in Peace
