Never cared for a movie adaptation of a comic book, but I just watched [spoiler]Rorschach's death[/spoiler] on YouTube and... anyone has that page from the comic? Because it was pretty damn bad.

I don't know, personally I don't think the comic had the strongest ending and there I think they did the comic justice.

Two things bugged me about [spoiler]Rorschach's death:
- Dan witnessing it and going Darth Vader
- Rorschach unambiguously begging Doc Manhattan for death - in the comic the emotions are more complex IMO[/spoiler]

Is the Motion Comic worth it for fans, or would I watch it once and then go, "Hrm. Must read book instead"?

I can't say. It was my initial Watchmen experience. It's worth a rental, at least. It's read by one guy, so the Sally Jupiters, and other female characters are sometimes unintentionally funny, and sometimes confusingly male if the characters start a scene speaking "off-screen".:laff:
Five-and-a-half hours of comics, nothing skipped.

Except the in-between-chapter extras, which are quite integral. :p
I like what I've seen of the Motion Comic, but I don't know whether the novelty would wear off after five minutes. And I doubt it'd be easy to get a rental here in Switzerland.
Have you read the comic in the meantime (including extras)?

Just go and read the comic.

Are you commenting on the Motion Comic's quality or are you just trolling, Koki? I've read the comic before, as should be clear from my earlier posts. Experiencing it in a new way may be worthwhile - if it's done in an interesting way.

I simply skipped the last 13 pages. So I didn't know you read it.
