Maybe not so much to measure length but how hard or easy it was to enjoy reading the story....

Tedious in the sense that it was a long read. And I've read the novel many times over the years.
But...it wasn't long.

Are you saying you thought it was boring?

Watchmen is the single greatest graphic novel ever and will ever be written. Anyone that says differently is either lying or a commie

It's not even the best Moore comic.

It's a shame. You don't know what you're missing.

I guess age needs to be put into context.
I was 17 when it was collected as a graphic novel in 1987.

Wikki now describes it as a nonlinear narrative, jumping in plot, time & space...plus the inclusion of Tales Of The Black Freighter...it was a long, challenging read.

The source material?
Miller didn't write a movie script, he wrote & illustrated a graphic novel without the knowledge or inkling that one day it would be converted into a film.
IMO you can't blame a comic book for not being something that it wasn't meant to be.

i'm not blaming it for anything. I actually liked 300. I just think that most complaints can be attributed to the comics, not the movie. Obviously excepting for things like the slow-mo, sure.

it usually is used to mean bad and long, not just one or the other, but it's a flexible term.

The only complaints I ever heard/read was from insecure guys claiming it was homo-erotic.

The word can also mean slow or dull.

But Moore was a commie.

Admittedly the same critics couldn't handle the big blue penis in The Watchmen movie...

I always hoped Connery would be an opium addict in the film but sadly no.
