Watchmen

An HBO Limited Series
Mar 05, 2020JCLIanH rated this title 5 out of 5 stars
I don't think anyone knew what to make of this. Zack Snyder's film version of watchmen was terrible and proved that adapting Watchmen was a fool's errand in the first place as it is so perfectly suited to its original medium. Was I expecting a sequel series set thirty years after the events of the graphic novel with a thematic focus on American race relations and generational trauma? No, I was not. Did it end up as the most compelling thing I saw all year? It absolutely did. While there is certainly a demand for a second season, I sort of hope they leave it as it is. It's a perfect and thrilling miniseries.
