    Finally saw it at the weekend, it was wonderful.

    The first movie I've seen in a long time (last was there Will Be Blood, I think) where I could have happily started watching it again immediately after it finished.

    Yeah, there were a couple of flaws milling around likelihood and logic, but it's the best comic book movie I've ever seen - probably because it wasn't in any way a comic book movie as we've come to know them (sorry, necromotion!). Actually, maybe Watchmen did too.

    .

    Partner wasn't too thrilled to watch it - she wanted something easy and light as she was in a bit of a grim mood, but given I always let her choose films, she said she was happy to give it a go. She spent much of the movie quietly murmering that perhaps we should've finished off the Mandolorian instead, whilst Mr Nairn was cackling at loads of innapropriate moments. Not sure I was supposed to find some of the bits I did funny... .

    • It's usually me saying "Let's watch something 'easy'" with Mrs Nairn opting for something heavy or forin with subtitles or whatever it is I don't need Sat nightNairn
    • if you havent seen it, i would suggest the HBO Watchmen series ... that and Joker, DC finally getting their act together for screen adaptations ...Bluejam
    • Yeah, I finally watched the WM series over christmas and loved it. Like Joker, as much as I'd love more/ or a sequel to it.. I also don't. Perfect as-is.Nairn
