t'was a response for all to share, no direction intended.
as for the future plans? who knows. if there are any, i actually see much more value in creating a sequel/prequel than retelling 50-75% of the story in a smaller format.
sure, the non-cannon story might upset, to the point of blood tears, a few hundred fanboys (or be generous and say thousand?) but it's not them that make these movies a financial success, its the mainstream audience. and, i think its a fairly safe bet that 90% or more of the folks who saw the movie never heard of the watchmen before, and were just riding high from the "holy fuck superheroes are cool" buzz that dark knight and iron man left in their wake. to them, it need not be deferential to the books. and, quite frankly, i'd include myself in that notion, as i tend to prefer seeing a movie i haven't already read.
...not that i look forward to the specific "rorschach-as-white rapper" mid 1990s sequel that is certainly already being dreamed up as an option. well, maybe a little.
