        As much as I hate the toxic POS that is Mark Millar, he did write a good comic book there. Shame about the shitty film.

      That one is not bad if you go in knowing that it’s just fucking ridiculous. It’s great for a bad b-movie night.

        I went in knowing it from the comics and was not amused. Even worse than Snyder making Rorschach the good guy in Watchmen. Even misunderstanding/deliberate sabotage of everything from the source is better than just ignoring the best part of the plot.

        How the hell do you take a setting where the supervillains won and end up with “some dudes just curve bullets bro”

        I didn’t even like the comics but that was just lame

          Watchmen was the only movie I saw people leave.

          Granted, they were probably expecting some generic superhero movie.

        It’s neither bad (it’s entertaining and competently-made even if absurd) nor a B-movie (by definition)

      I loved Wanted, that movie captured what it was like to work in a hive office environment with an equally horrific boss everyone pretended to like, also great action flick that bordered on a superhero movie.

      Bruh, YOU can’t curve bullets, don’t bring the rest of us down with you. I for one have been breaking the laws of physics for years
