Superhero Origins: Rorschach 

He was perfect.

y big ups for dat actor

Cosmic Flow Could you repeat that? In English?

Yes. yes he did. *gives you Rorschach, in his current reincarnation as dalmatian puppy :)

I KNOW RIGHT?????

Just like what he did with Freddy Krueger. Say what you want about that movie, but his purformance was absolutely bone-chilling

The best dialogue in the whole movie

So this is where that came from!

Agreed, still one of my favorites

Kj Ayy it sure is an amazing movie.

Kj Ayy I'm still in love with this movie

Kj Ayy Watchmen is one of the highest ranked movies ever. Tf you talking about?

Nah. found it boring a way shallower than the book.

I think it's too complicated for some people. It is a lot of history and a lot of nasty, tricksy dialoges for those who have no interest whatsoever in using their brain. Those who watch superhero-movies only for the fist-fights, pew-pew-pew-shootouts and blood-splattering violence will probably not like this film as much as it deserves.

koalakid11 I heard it was because a lot of people thought it was another movie that turned away from the source material. After watching this video though I think it was one of the few movies that didn't do that.

The novel is even better. Trust me!

***** I have considered reading the comic. And I really want to read Before Watchmen: Rorschach, because he is simply the coolest anti-hero I have ever seen.

koalakid11 The "Before Watchmen" for Rorschach isn't as good as I would like. But I still own it. It doesn't have an in depth 'origin' story like Dr Manhattan or Ozymandias. But it's still cool. :)

Yeah, this had nothing to do with his origins so much as it was a sum-up of the whole plot. Come on, y'all. There's plenty of material on Rorschach to have focused on nothing but where this guy came from and what he was about

I think that's the point. This WAS his origins all the way through to his end. Granted they also said in the start that it's only one series of comics.

Ikr??

well, in Watchmen (and by extension here) they do relate how Rorschach originated (the little girl incident). So they kinda did tell the origin story....with some toppings. lots of it.

+RafaAnto that's not Rorschach's origins, that's just the reason why Rorschach started killing people

No, Wolverine

+Cody Luis no, batman

The answer is always Batman

Too bad he looks like woody allen

Batman voice is not hardcore, its only Nolan worst idea of making him voiced like that, my favorite batman voice is kevin conroy, The bat voice changer in the bvs was good tho

Joker will probably end up dying even worse than the first guy Rorschach killed.

gr8gmr doubted joker is above him

@Fire Heart He doesn't. Rorschach is just a human in peak condition. Doctor Manhattan is the only one with actual superpowers.

Fire Heart he’s just strong he’s no superman

@Fire Heart i agree with u

In some comic comparison discussion, he's being compared to The Question.

+Greg Rizal Rorschach is more like Bruce Wayne's father as batman

Perfect place for Rorschach is Mortal KOMBAT!!!!

+Greg Rizal And he's shorter. And he can't fight as good.... and isn't as rich.... but he's as badass as Batman.

+Greg Rizal you man like what batman SHOULD have been after dark knight strikes again?

*Punisher* thankyou!

Yup

If I’m not wrong Rorschach was inspired by the Question and the Question was inspired by Mr. A

And The Spoiler

J, Ludwig yeah I’d like to think he’s a combination of the Punisher and Batman

2019: say no more

lol u see the future

GOD DAMN YES

@@ianmacario7359I mean the actor who played him should play carnage

that'd be so good

+Nathaniel Charles welll hbo is discussing with zack snyder to make a series about watchmen ;)

+TheLegoproduc Sequels are not Snyders forte. Neither is world-building and maintaining a good movie.

+Anders Linden he will adapt the before watchmen comics series.

This is exactly what i was thinking. I watched it yesterday

hi, i read the comic and wached the film, it have different ending if u enjoy the film read the last part of the book. is in all librarys if u don't want buy

Before rorshach explode im saying "no, no, plz no" then ¡BUUM! :'(. I hope they made a precuel about rorshach.

I don't know whether to be upset that they changed him taking justice out on that guy who killed the girl. He kills him with a cleaver, effectively showing his sense of punishing evil and putting down dogs. But in the comics, Rorschach handcuffs him and give him the option to escape the burning building by giving him a hacksaw, knowing he'll be too scared to saw it off. The kill is not quick or really by his hand. What do you guys think?

I guess it's a proven fact: Rorschach IS the Watchmen. But yeah, I agree, it seems like a summary of the Watchmen series, not Rorschach specifically.

This was annoying I wanted in-depth information about Rorschach. It's even more annoying that whilst I was going to give WM it's dues on little information, said information is readily available. This summary left a lot of information out, especially I believe the part regarding to his excelling in amateur boxing whilst in the care home, that I feel is information people readily want to know. Walter Joseph Kovacs was born on March 21, 1940, the son of Sylvia Kovacs, a prostitute, and an unknown father only known to Kovacs as "Charlie". His mother was frequently abusive and condescending towards him. In July 1951, at the age of 11, Kovacs became involved in a violent fight with two older bullies, and subsequently his living conditions were finally looked into. He was removed from his mother's care and put in "The Lillian Charlton Home for Problem Children" in New Jersey, where he rapidly seemed to improve, excelling at scholastics as well as gymnastics and amateur boxing. In 1956, after leaving the Charlton Home when he was 16, Kovacs took a job as a garment worker in a dress shop, which he found "bearable but unpleasant" partly because he had to handle women's clothing; it was here that he acquired a certain dress fabric that he would later fashion into the mask he wears as Rorschach. In 1962, Kovacs scavenged the material from a rejected dress that had been special-ordered by a young woman with an Italian name. Though Kovacs learned how to cut and fashion the material successfully with heated implements, he soon grew bored with it, as it served him no real purpose at the time.[13] Two years later when buying a newspaper on his way to work in March 1964, Walter read about the rape and murder of Kitty Genovese, whom he believed was the Italian woman who had rejected the dress. Ashamed by what he read about the unresponsiveness of her neighbors, Kovacs became disillusioned with the underlying apathy that he saw as inherent in most people. Inspired by Genovese's fate, Kovacs returned home, made "a face [he] could bear to look at in the mirror" from the dress's fabric, and began fighting crime as the vigilante Rorschach. Initially, Kovacs left criminals alive, but bloodied, for the police to arrest. In the mid 1960s, he teamed up with Nite Owl II, a partnership which proved highly successful at battling organized crime.[13] In 1975, an investigation into the kidnapping of a young girl named Blair Roche led to the transformation of the "soft" Kovacs into the ruthlessly uncompromising Rorschach. He tracked the kidnapping to a man named Gerald Grice. At Grice's shack, Kovacs found evidence that Grice had killed the girl and had fed her remains to his dogs. Rorschach killed the dogs with Grice's meat cleaver and waited for his arrival. When Grice returned, Rorschach handcuffed him to a stove, poured kerosene around him, gave him a hacksaw and told Grice that he could cut off his own hand in order to escape. Rorschach then set the building on fire and left. No one emerged.[13] During a later psychological evaluation, the vigilante stated that Kovacs went into the shack, but that Rorschach came out. When the Keene Act was passed in 1977 to outlaw vigilantes, Rorschach responded by killing a wanted multiple rapist and leaving his body outside a police station with a note bearing one word: "neveR!".

Ozymandias was also the inspiration of Erwin

And poor

Sandip Gajjar trueee

Sandip Gajjar Rorschach is batman if he were a dick The comedian is captain America if he were a dick Dr Manhattan is Superman if he were a dick

also like midnighter

Unproductive anomaly Rorschach is like Batman too.

Supermovies ikr he gives me ideas for anti hero that im creating

Supermovies To me there isn't much anti to him. He was the song of the executioner nothing more . he wasn't killing people over a speeding ticket.

"While many heroes are in the limelight and uphold peace and being a good person, there is always someone like Rorschach, a person who makes the scum that seeps through the cracks and evades the gaze of even superman, it ain't pretty, it isn't clean, but someone's gotta do it." Random Elias, sound like a good line for your character? You'll probably have to take out the heroes names but the premise is solid.

Eh dark hero

Supermovies agreed

the original batman voice wasn't even supposed to be raspy , it was supposed to be dark but also dominant and commanding. he was never raspy even in the comics . only rorchach was known to have a voice like that because of his bubbles

kingpiccolo colin How do you know if he was raspy or not in the comics (O_o)

I believe his speech/dialogue bubble (Don't know the official name) looks like it's distorted or something

Trivial611 its comic logic , with block like sharp bubbles with computer fonts means they are electronic like ironman and when they are red they might be angry . black might mean sinister and dark like venom or other dark characters . raspy bubbles have disfigured with some sharp and soft edges . before the movie came out , Alan Moore in his interview would read the novel and would do the rorchach voice raspy/

Rorschach Kovacs It is the voice of saints and the most beautiful birds are jealous.

Thats a stupidly generic line, that was never in the novel

coming from Rorschach tho, it was cool as fuuuck

Alec Silva are you kidding me? not everything has to be exactly like the comic ... that line was badass

xDark Star117x dude its such a generic line

Alec Silva it was badass

nathan tesfamicael Watchmen's it's own universe, DC just published the graphic novel. It'd be hard to have that universe share the same universe as DC, you would think that Superman would've stopped the fake alien invasion somewhere.

except for christopher nolan sucks you dumbass

it happen before superman was old enough to stop it

***** well many dislike chris Nolan cause they blamed him for turning movies that were supposed to be full with fights and blasts turned into some soap opera drama.... But I still feel the way he did the character development and presented the twists in each and every movie he directed was just awesome.... But...well Michael bay's movie always commercially outrun chris movies... So yeah no matter how bad he is making his movies...people are there still appreciating it In the same way...no matter how bad chris Nolan is...people are there appreciating him

nathan tesfamicael not sure about your timeline dilemma...but events of watchmen happened in an alternate world The events of world war 2hppened in a different way where the watchmen helped them win the war

+Mutimedia fun times

Joker = head chopped off

+White_Death15 I would wager a dead Rorschach

he get's put down like a dog.

+ChefMatt Reviews joker, right?

+O.G. Loki Batman is way older than Rorschach.

so

+O.G. no, they are just birds of the same feather

except one bird kills people whereas the other doesnt

O.G. Loki That's right. Actually, if Batman and Rorschach ever met, Bats would probably bring him down for murder.

Could be a prequel of his work before and during his time as a Watchmen. We know from the actual origin comic of Rorschach that he used to work with Nite Owl and had a good deal of solo cases beforehand too.

@L Yeah... about that T.V. show. They ruined it. Lol

Dr.manhattan is dick

Docter Manhattan is a sex symbol, afterall

2 time It happened 2 time

Rorschach was supposed to be hated and the author was so confused when people started loving him.

herogamer555 Thats because hes awesome :)

***** probably not, Inhuman means not human, inhumane means without compassion or pity.

Except for one difference. When push comes to shove, Batman won't do what's necessary for the greater good (killing Joker), whereas vigilantes like Rorschach will make the call without question. Yeah, it's inhumane to kill another human, but in the end it's the ones like Rorschach that actually save lives. Look at Jigsaw, from the SAW movies. He's portrayed as the bad guy at first, but as the series continue you understand that he does what no one else will, and deals with criminals as they deserve it. He serves justice as it should be.

But Batman dosen't kill people. Rorschach is more like a costumed Dexter Morgan.

Agents of shield?

The best superhero movie

RedLightning007 *Cough* Civil Argument *Cough* every single MCU movie that isn't ironman 1 and 2 or hulk *cough*

xDark Star117x Iron Man 3....Thor 2..etc

RedLightning007 yh the actor did an amazing job

One of the essential comics right up there with Maus and The Spirit in it's impact on sequential art. Watchmen did for comics what Citizen Kane did for film in it's own way.

WhosThatGuy opinion*

DutchPool Fact*

Arc Noble Opinion*

joan sebastian gaitan nieto Factinion*

omgomgmikeomgomg Stop being douchebags about it, just because people doesn´t think the way that all of you think. Watchmen is my favorite graphic novel but that doesn't mean that everyone has to think like me. Accept different opinions and grow up for god sake.

more like antihero

madd ace he was by no means an antihero. he actively sought out and attempted to bring justice. He was a very elemental hero, sociopathic, but definitely a hero archetype.

Harrison Moore Like Travis Bickle.

madd ace He was just obsessed with the common good, he accepted death and the whole lets kill a million to save a billion plan but said to reveal it to public for even the smallest reason of why.

iMyoto Nice

*Ahem* Kevin Conroy would beg to differ.

Gotham Knight everybody quit that Kevin Conroy best voice ever sh*t

sawyer grey Then Mark Hamill *And he IS the best Batman voice ever though, at least*

Conroy is the best Batman voice, but Haley did a great job of Rorschach

tied with batmans steroid voice

Unlike most superheroes, Rorschach only has one story, so there really isn't anything else to tell other than the plot.

Duh

DUH, jk just trollin ya

He jeopardized a world peace over something that had already happened. New Yorkers died for world peace, Rorschach made sure it was for nothing but his own conscience.

Corey Knight He tried to save lives he believed that killing good people is wrong and its not okay just because others will live

anal lover no he didn't try to save any lives.. They were all already dead. It was over. There was nothing to be gained from revealing the truth. The only result of telling the truth was that the peace was destroyed.

Corey Knight he was revealing the truth of it was not an act of justice but a killing of millions of innocent people

paulsbunyans could not agree more

In my opinion, Rorschach is more like an anti-hero while Batman is true superhero

gianhet until he died

Yeah Rorschach was my favorite. I am not all into Dr. Manhattan cause he is like a super all powerful being.

He died, but he still out smarted everyone in the end. He got his journal, a long with all the secrets released to the world.

Trevor Tharp You just read the wiki pages.

surprisingly not. Just so happens I watched this video before an ethics lecture. I'd always known that Ozymandias was a utilitarian just never knew Rorschach's behavior actually had a school of thought.

Trevor Tharp This was so obvious, you shouldn't need to be taught that

***** what I'm suppose to know what Deontology is before I've ever heard about it before?

Trevor Tharp Alan Moore knew what he was doing.

Nice to know this

Oh piss off. Ever tell someone that you like something? That's what this is. No need for sarcasm. If your a smartass you first must be smart. Then you're just a dumbass

Good news dude. Rorschach is just a normal dude and has no powers. Nothing is stopping you from buying a mask online and becoming him.

PkSuperProd well said. be deadpool and just wear a rorschach mask for like £20, lol

Sorry can't help u

oh

Actually he was based on the question

Greatest superhero movie? LMFAO is that some kind of joke?

SONYroxs I know it wasn't the best laid out movie, and yes sometimes (like 10 mins) the movie got boring and irrelevant, but this is the first mature superhero movie. This is the only superhero movie i actually emotionally connected with any of the characters, and cared for. If you like superhero movies made for kids and made to sell, your probably are right, dark night is the best. But if you read the comics, this is what you should want from a movie representation, not a pg 13 movie for kid

So 3 characters that represent batman is good and the rest that are representing other heroes.

TheClanNemoireProductions I think I should narrate some of the facts about the origins of the Watchmen saga for you to make it clear that this epic is pretty far from a Batman ripoff. It was back in the old comic days that DC comics got the licenses of several characters from the bankrupted Charleton Comics publishing. The DC figureheads decided to let Alan Moore, one of Western comics' most conceptually potent writers, to make a rebooting story for the charleton characters, including The Blue Beetle, The Question, Nightshade, Captain Atom, The Peacemaker, and Thunderbolt. As a response, Moore wrote out what would be the entire storyline of Watchmen for this project, because, well, he's a genius who crafted Helraiser and V For Vendetta. However, DC comics found the story to be slightly unacceptable, due to its controversial concept depth that literally killed some characters or rendered them unusable for future storylines. This is why the charcters were completely reimagined into new characters specifically for this story: The Question became Rorscharch, Blue Beetle became Nite Owl II, Night Shade became the second Silk Specter, Captain Atom became Doctor Manhattan, The Peacemaker became The Comedian, and Thunderbolt became Ozymandias. As you can see, no Batman is involved here. Howevr, Watchmen is a best buddy with Frank Miller's "Dark Knight Returns" as two of the most intense superhero comics ever made.

Nima Emkani For you to proclaim Watchmen to be the best comic story, how many comic arcs have you actually read? Demon in the Bottle? Judas Contract? Killing Joke? God Loves Man Kills?

deadpool is also cool

​@@dinothunder629he's just a parody

Because people who doesn't read the comic expected something like all other superhero movies. So lot of explosions, easy plot, a bit of humor. "The Watchmen" is just too deep and hard for them. People just expected someting else.

Demogorgon White I think you're right, about expectations at least. I don't remember really liking the movie, but after learning more about Watchmen through other sources, I can see why people are so enthusiastic about it. Maybe the movie is better as a companion piece to the original graphic novels than a standalone?

Most people didn't like the blue dick tbh

btw the dick was a mistake of snyder,cuz it wasnt needed to be shown in the whole movie!

MrDexterrock I don't hate the movie, but it just doesn't hold a candle to the original comic. I always thought a movie treatment of it would fail, there just isn't enough time to cover all the depth of the source material. It should have been made into a TV series instead.

MrRappScallion Watch the ulimate cut. 3h 35min long

***** Just watched it lol. Great movie!

Rorsach isnt fighting ninjas, or Mr. Freeze. They are not really comprable.

Not pushing it. He definitely is

Definitely pushing it, Batman is over Rorschach. You think Batman can't do anything Rorschach can do, and can you say the same vice versa.

I enjoy him more than Batman honestly

Except Batman is basically superhuman.Rorschach isn't.

Oddly enough, if you think about it. The movie was all about him, even at the end it ended with him like the beginning. Overall the movie follows him and his last ever quest to find the big plot. Every other characters just seemed like minor characters. If you're considering his appearances throughout the movie without his mask he had more screen time than most of the heros.

Hell no Unlike that wuss batman,Rorschach never compromises,never rests and he is not afraid to kill

Epidemic Pain batman doesnt kill because he would be afraid of it. batman doesnt kill because he doesnt want to murdering scum like the one who killed his parents. tho that doesnt mean that he would not brake every last bone in your body. also he did "kill" joker.in dark knight returns. batman doesnt rest during the day, than he has to be bruce and go through different kind of crap as leader of company and millionaire. he cant go out as batman during the daytime. neither he compromises, he does everything in his power to do what is right.

MrAnimepredator Lets compare,batman that,batman does not kill because it brakes his code despite the fact that joker killed thousands among those Jason Todd and he still did not kill the joker( or anyone else for that matter) while Rorschach is,you fuck with me and my morals you die He doesn't rest during the day?Explain why,because hes batman thats why,Rorschach is barely sleeps but does sleep,everyone needs to sleep....except batman We never see batmans day around the office if I recall,and the day time never bothered batman when he was in the justice league did it? And batman compromises,he revelead his identity to the justice league,He adopted like 4 kids at this point despite being "the Caped Crusader" that does everything on his own among others He does not make everything to do what is right,Red hood does that,not batman

Epidemic Pain Agreed. Rorschach could take Batman anyday.

fizzledizzle62 No he couldn't because batman fans will always say BECAUSE HES BATMAN THEREFORE HE WINS Don't believe me,people say that batman can beat god damn superman just cause

No, its a single story with some prequels, not enough material for a whole TV show.

Their making up stories for DC and the Arrowverse. A lot which didn't happen or wasn't accurate. They could do the prequel first then do a spinoff of the Watchmen

+Freya Mikaelson It's not that simple. The DC universe has more than 75 years and going worth of history that writers of a show could pick from and alter to fit the show. Watchmen is a short series in its own universe with a set beginning and end. They couldn't give it the same treatment unless they decided to make it a miniseries.

I agree, they could easily do a prequel of this Comic. There's plenty of plot and character exposition that could be displayed.

They're gonna ruin it

Fuck yeah he is

Wow... That is a good one. Even though I'm not a huge fan I am curious of his origins.

***** The Question is that dude!

showlegacy619 Rorschach was based of the Question.

They need to bring the Question on Arrow!!!

Ian Karels Arrow has ruined enough, they don't need to ruin Question.

Exactly! Even guys like the Punisher. He is willing to get his hands dirty if it means ridding this place of the human waste that plagues our world. Rorschach is an extremely complex and Bad Ass character. I am glad they actually portrayed him very well in the movie. Rorschach ='s LEGEND!

Ronin Hmm a character having a black and white moral compass and yet being blurred in his methods of justice. That is truly a dynamic character.

Spiderman never kills

Correction: marvel universe characters are prone to it, not dc. very rarely does DC thats why DC made a different universe for their killers for Watchmen.

John Doe I agree. I.E. Dexter. I dig it.

thesis statement, peace based on a lie could not last? I really loved your comment

Stopaskingformyname He _was_ paranoid. What intuition? All of hos detective work was based on a paranoid, erroneous belief. If it weren't for Dan Dreiberg, he probably wouldn't even have come close to exposing Veidt. I really don't know about "moral compass" thing. Rorschach didn't kill criminals for any other reason than his own dogmatic beliefs (ironic, huh?). He was perfectly fine with rape (as long as the rapist was a person he liked). I don't think he had any real moral compass beyond his black-white insanity. Peace based on a lie cannot last? Any historical examples? This is actually ironic, because the new Doomsday Clock storyline reveals that Veidt's scheme actually kept world peace going for several years. It wasn't until a journalist actually seriously investigated Rorschach's journal (and Veidt was exposed) that the world turned to shit and the US and Russia were at war again. Oops. Honestly, Rorschach is a great character, but people in his fanbase (such as yourself) tend to oversell him just a _little_ bit.

I always thought Rorschach was the Worst of bat man and and Night owl was the Good parts of batman.

Doom9000 More that Rorschach was an exaggerated version of The Question (back when Steve Ditko was at the helm) and Nite Owl 1/2 is the Blue Beetle: Hollis Mason = Dan Garret; Ted Kord = Dan Dreiberg.

Phil Smith The question is in fact a tamed version of Rorschach, that born when DC buy the rights of the Watchman, don't need to say why the question is so awesome and redhead on the DC universe.

Would have been such a sick spin off on hbo or some shit

Truth

was that a quote for another movie? it seems ive heard that from something else

Agreed. The way he said it was both badass AND terrifying at the same time.

You're right, can't argue with this statment.

MrHarrystank I think a video like this for essentially a one-time character is beyond pointless, and an entire chapter of Watchmen is dedicated to Rorschach's origin, going into tremendous detail. (And yes, just ignore my username).

eh homicidal anything

+Allen Jacques Honestly I'd settle for Aquaman at this point.

Absolutely! The justice system doesn't work. Why let criminals live longer than they should when they didn't care about ending other people's lives?!.

What if it turns out your criminal was an innocent man? You can't release someone from death.

Oh well then

Maybe even more strict than even Bruce would ever be!

Well thats the point, the writer of Watchmen, Alan Moore, intended Rorschach to be a realistic version of Batman. in real life, people would be afraid of a super aggressive masked man, with a super strict "moral" code, which people weren't for Batman, but were afraid of in Rorschach.

That was the point of Rorschach, he is what Batman would be like if he was real, bat-shit crazy.

Rorchach and Night Owl were supposedly based on the two halves of Batman. Rorschach being the ruthless vigilante detective while the Night Owl, the inventor with his suit, gadgets and hi tech vehicles.

Arrest you, they would probably employ you.

you win at commenting back. You took my dumb joke and made it good.

or deadpools haha

tcturtle89 except you live in real life, and then being like deadpool would be stupid

MSNDBZ24 yes but id be crazy enough not to care

***** If you haven't read the comics then you can't truly appreciate Batman imo. Even the Dark Knight trilogy (which is AMAZING) didn't capture his true essence. Batman is a badass, but he's also a brilliant detective, something no movie yet has managed to portray.

***** I'm not telling you to go out and buy the comics, but to judge Batman without knowing the character fully is a bit shortsighted. He's definitely a badass, and he's also leaps and bounds more intelligent than most of the characters people compare him to like Rorschach, Punisher, etc.

***** If you decide to I'd definitely recommend starting with issue #30 of Detective Comics in the New 52. It's a new storyline that's been pretty amazing so far. Also if you don't mind weekly series I'd say pick up Batman Eternal as the story and art for that one are probably some of the best stuff to *ever* come out of the New 52.

Sectai You're really going to compare a 75 year old comic to today's standards? Really, dude?

long? it shoul have been longer-or a trilogy. Because the comic is super detailed and long

+LeThayle the comic book was the greatest ever made

Wish it was longer, 9/10 imo

comic was better

Goochkins lel It's nearly 3 hours long

They marketed it as a superhero movie, but in reality the point of it isn't action, but a philosophical statement. As a result, lots of people who saw it were never going to like it, and some comic fans were upset that they changed the ending, even if the films end made more sense.

Alex Zarandi What exactly did they change about the ending?

This and V for Vendetta are, personally, the 2 best and most accurate superhero movies made by DC

OggyTheTiger Film ending Ozymandias makes it look like Dr. Manhattan destroys New York in order to unite the people of Earth against a common foe, and thus end the Cold War, and forcing Manhattan to flee, as well as making him kill Rorschach to make sure the lie stays real. Book does the same but by pretending a space alien kills a load of people in New York, which is a) ridiculous, and b) fails to explain why Manhattan leaves.

I hated the movie, not because they didn't adapt it right, but some stuff should just be left to the page. I really didn't feel like this was nearly as good to watch, as it was to read

+Joshy Song Sp___ everywhere?

I read watchmen and it's my favorite comic book of all time

dejan mandic Ikr. Man of Steel was certainly better than Watchmen and Man of Steal altogether.

Maybe I'm too late but can I know what did that man steal?

Bone apple tee!

@@orignalazian5130 wtf? Watchmen is better than MoS and BvS combined bruh

Both are masterpiece

It's a horrible adaptation of a story that was multi-layered and meant to push the boundaries of the comics medium that was never meant to be filmed.

TheSweetestCurse I'm guessing you didn't see the directors cut

TheSweetestCurse That's your very sorry opinion. The movie was a masterpiece (especially the director's cut). And the few changes that were made were the right ones.

It wasn't the best but when it comes to superhero adaptations it really worked out.

AMEN!

True but then he doesn't qualify for this category.

PkSuperProd Wel it tells his past and the girl case where Rorschach was kinda born, but yeah it just tells the plot of watchmen
