Alan Moore - Fucked Again Over Watchmen?

Alan Moore. Great writer of comics. Undoutedly one of the best around. Unfortunately, adaptations of his work have not fared so well.

The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen - Hollywood fucked him.

V for Vendetta - Hollywood fucked him.

From Hell - Hollywood fucked him.

Now, they're adapting one of Moore's best works, Watchmen. One of the best comics ever, it concerns an alternate history United States, which is edging closer and closer to nuclear war with the USSR. It tells the story of the last remaining superheroes and the events surrounding the mysterious murder of one of their own. The superheroes are presented as real people who must confront ethical and personal issues, who have neuroses and fuck-ups, and who are largely lacking in superpowers. Watchmen destroys of the superhero stereotype, and combined with its innovative adaptation of cinematic techniques and heavy use of symbolism and multi-layered dialogue, has had a profound effect on later comics.

And it's being made into a film and directed by Zack "Dawn of the Dead remake" Snyder.

I think I am going to cry.
