The Watchmen was one of my all time favorite movies and I'm guessing that you're one of two people:fix-the-spade said:
Fanboy who's obsession with the comic makes him hate every other interpretation of the source material.

A moron with the attention span of a dyslexic squrriel.
Don't say something isn't good without giving reasons.
i think everybody flipped shit when that happened, in the graphic novel and the movie. I did it at the movie, and I read the book so I already knew what was gonna happen.AkJay said:

Or did he? It seems to me that the only way for Kaizer Sozey to kill the man that saw his face AND get back at the people who stole from him was to do it HIMSELF.
Besides in the final boat scene, who could have killed Hockney?

Try almost any Tarantino movie.
In Pulp Fiction there were no actual heroes; in Reservoir Dogs the good guys were the bad guys and (almost) everyone died;in Kill Bill the bride was a hero, but only acted her role as a hero by acting as a villian; in Inglourious Basterds, the villain (by which i mean Han's Landa, not Hitler) gets away, if not marked for the rest of his life; And in Jackie Brown, she worked for the villians until they try to kill her, and it ends with her taking a ton of money and running.
Robert Rodriguez movies do the same as well, it that same vein of thought. But boy those films are good.Hidan03 said:
QFT. Although after the prequels something occurred to me: We all used to call Luke a whiney farm boy. Then we see Anakin and he's a whiney emo. Apple didn't fall far from that tree did it?Mr Smile said:
On topic: Who are the two who voted no, and what standards of 'good' for a movie are they using?
Good endings are for saps!
And because of that, a lot of people may hate the movie just because they're like that.
It will still be a good movie though.
Edit: SPOILERS A' GALORE!

I now hate myself for forgetting Seven. I am now going to jump off a cliff. Thanks.Darkness62 said:
The Godfather I and II.
There will be Blood.
Though it call be argued that in the Godfather II, Micheal won and lost at the same time. He's more powerful then ever, and his entire family is either dead or hates his guts.
There will be Blood. Plainview wins at the end...and ends up a bitter, twisted old man.
