Scots has a PS3 though, so he can rent the shithouse game and watch it that way.

Ah yes, I forgot he had one of those. Lucky sod.

Game rentals, there's an idea!

Necromancy, I know. Tsk tsk etc. Finally decided to chance it, got as far as the first rorschach bit and seriously, fuck this movie. Eerily exactly like listening to a favourite novel read out by a fucking idiot. So I guess Zack worked out a way to file the unfilmable, right? Which is to film it atrociously and recalibrate your wanking machine to give congratulatory handshakes for following the most basic criteria possible for a comic book adaptation. So were Terry Gilliam fears to tread, Zack Snyder slow-mos in with cgi tits? What a collossal dick disco. Consider the entirety of my goodwill stored up by the suprisingly good dawn of the dead remake entirely earthed, you moronic fuck.

Harsh!
But I was starting to fell I was the only one on TTLG who truly loathed this movie...

Thread tl;dr, but I saw this film a while back and found it to be long and boring. The ending was kind of cool, I guess, but the rest didn't really interest me.

Yeah, that was actually my big surprise for the film. I ended up being so bothered by nearly every script/direction decision for the entirety of the film, that when the changed ending came along it didn't bother me at all and in fact seemed to work (well, the key change, anyway: the execution of some parts was really lame, particularly Dan's ham-fisted lecture to Adrian about how HE IS A BAD PERSON.
That said, I'm really interested in *what* makes the movie so bad and how it came about, so I'll probably end up watching the director's cut with someone who has never seen the film to get a second opinion. Maybe I would have liked it if I had never read the book, I dunno.

Saw it awhile back. It sucks, but Zach Snyder directed it, so what did anyone expect?
Vivian on 2/10/2009 at 07:54
True.
