Watchmen (2009 film)
It's so fucking slow and SO GODDAMN LONG.
During the scene where the naked blue dude says "it never ends", I blurted out "yeah, like this movie", and the girl a couple of seats down laughed so hard that her boyfriend got mad.
Yaaaas, omg. Luckily I didn't see it in theaters but even renting it at home, I remember by hour 2 I was just laying on the floor begging for it to be over while my now-ex insisted we watch it through to the end.
I also never understood why people thought Rorschach was "such a badass" and supposedly some kind of role model when he clearly needed therapy and was just stewing in his own self-pity and self-hatred and made that his whole personality.
You know it's sad when I can say "The book was better and far easier to take seriously."
And it's a comic book that's so poorly written that Alan Moore hates everyone who roots for Rorshach despite him being the only proactive non-evil character in the story.
Dr. Manhatten is the goat though.
Look I love Watchmen, it's a great book, but if I'm NOT supposed think Rorshach is the good guy, then Moore shouldn't written him like he's the closest thing to a hero this world actually has.
I liked it but only as it was quite close to the comic, definitely understand why most others would dislike it
