25-30 minutes worth I believe is how much they put back into the film. What scenes those'll be, I have no idea, but we'll see in a couple weeks.

Considering most "comic fan"s say The Dark Knight Returns is one of the best graphic novels of all time, which I didn't think was that great, tells me that everyone has an opinion. Besides I don't think you have to read Watchmen to be a "comic fan". It may be a great read and I'm sure it is. But there are limitations at the moment that prevent me from reading it: money.

In short: I'll be sure to get around to it first chance I get. 😉 And yes, I do consider myself a "comic fan".

The "Extreme" Cut which isn't due out until winter will include the "Squid". Not the Director's Cut. Just a head's up if you didn't know.

Seems like Watchmen isn't an opinion.

Barring that, Hulk.

Will the squid be part of the special features? Because from all I've read, the "Extreme" Cut just has the Black Freighter stuff incorporated into the film.

I just find it hilarious that over three hours and an additional DVD later, and they still haven't come close to fitting everything in.

Lesson; leave Alan Moore's stories the f*ck alone.

LXG was bad, granted, but I found V for Vendetta and Watchmen great.

Seriously though, Unbreakable was undoubtedly the best one.

I disagree although it might find a way somewhere in my top ten. It's a good film. Love the part at the end where Mr. Glass reveals all of his plans and evil schemes.

Yeah, that is a really strong scene. "Now that we know who you are, I know who I am..."

I think the Box Office "flop" killed any plans of sequels. Which is a shame considering Jackson's will and talent in that area.

They're shit compared to the books.

Loads of stuff was sacrificed, endings and characters were changed. You just can't make movies of Moore's books. They never work in comparison.

i really, really liked that movie... 🙁

A History Of Violence is another good one not that i've read the comic.

The Watchmen actually bored me...I didn't really care for it.

My picks are:

1. The Dark Knight
2. Spiderman 2 and 3
3. Incredible Hulk
4. Iron Man

The way the G.I. Joe previews look....I may be adding it to the list.

The Hulk above Iron Man? Spider-Man 3? Reasons?

That's what we call "Being retarded" though.

If you have to ignore the source for it to be good...
