Snyder's foray into the major leagues comic book universe blended the usual Snyder conventions with one of the most seminal artistic exercises of the graphic novel of its time to create an attempt at adapting what previously had been deemed impossible. And, really, was probably still proven to be. :-P
Nevertheless, after all this time, it's always been an enigma to look back on. Coming on the heels of stuff like The Dark Knight and Iron Man, a lot of folk were warily interested in seeing whether Watchmen would be able to live up to the hype, to competently make some decent celluloid out of a comic book that relied so heavily on its medium to convey its noirish, existential deconstruction. What do you think of it today, purple place? ^^'
