Watchmen	comment	Watchmen is the 2009 Film Adaptation of Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' Watchmen, directed by Zack Snyder.After almost 20 years in development limbo (including a script by David Hayter, a.k.a. Solid Snake, and not one, but two attempts by Terry Gilliam), the movie was eventually made and released, using a script by Alex Tse which preserves some of Hayter's elements.The story follows the comic really closely, with dialogue and scenes lifted shot-for-shot at times. There are only a handful of alterations, much of it removing excess backstory and subplots to streamline the story, with the primary change being key elements of the villains' plan at the end. That makes it probably the most accurate adaptation of an Alan Moore comic (with the possible exception of the Justice League episode "For the Man Who Has Everything") and one of the most comics-accurate adaptations ever made overall.This page is for movie-only tropes — most will be on the main Watchmen page. Similarly, movie-specific character tropes go here.

Watchmen / int_108c268e	type	Hotter and Sexier
Watchmen / int_108c268e	comment	Hotter and Sexier: Laurie's costume is tighter and much more revealing than it was in the book. The pudgy, homely Dan Dreiberg is played by a good-looking actor. And the sex scene in the owlship is much more explicit than anything Dave Gibbons ever drew.

Watchmen / int_121b3725	type	Age Lift
Watchmen / int_121b3725	comment	Age Lift: Sally and Eddie had their Minutemen-era ages lifted for the film, as Gugino and Morgan could not convincingly play the characters that young. Sally went from being 19 to being 25, while Eddie changed from 16 to 19 in early screenplay drafts before they settled on him being 22. Other ages and dates were tweaked a bit, as revealed in supplementary materials. In a broad sense the main cast are played by actors in their 30s while they are supposed to be in their mid-40s in the present day. It was a necessary deal since so much of the story features flashbacks to decades in the past, rather than trying to subtly portray the age differences of 25-45 they maintained a standard appearance throughout the film. This contrasts the older heroes, who are seen in various stages between their 20s and their 70s using make-up.

But since that was taken out, Bubastis has little purpose.

The fans of the comic also have no compunction about dropping major plot points. Said fans include a major webcomic. This is because a lot of the comic's power came from the fact that the plot points were stupidly obvious. Like, if you missed the fact that Ozymandias was going to be the main villain you just weren't paying attention. And it worked anyway.

Watchmen / int_23e32a30	comment	Genre Deconstruction: Snyder said his intention wasn't to translate the comics deconstruction of comic book conventions to comic book movies, but by its nature elements of this certainly crept in. Rorschach's voice is about the most extreme Private Eye Monologue you can imagine, especially as this movie was made in the wake of The Dark Knight and talk of Christian Bale's absurdly low and scratchy Batman voice. The costumes of the 1940s heroes are generally made of cloth and leather while the 1980s heroes wear latex and rubber suits, which reflects the changing pattern of Hollywood superhero costumes. Ozymandias outfit in particular has sculpted nipples, a reference to the infamous designs in Batman & Robin. The violence level is also ramped up.

In the opening sequence, Nite Owl I appears to save the Waynes in front of a wall of Batman posters outside the Gotham Opera House. Dreiberg has a copy of Watchmen on his desk. Captain Metropolis and Hooded Justice can be seen staring at each other adoringly in the retirement scene from the intro. It was mentioned in passing in the original comic that those two were secretly lovers. Veidt's Watchmen toyline is made up of the real-life action figures released by DC Direct. However, the ones in the movie are painted in brighter, comic accurate colors. The pirate comic can be seen briefly.

In the intro, there's a brief scene of a bunch of hippies protesting Nixon, facing off against some National Guardsmen pointing guns at them. One of them puts a flower into the barrel of one of the National Guardsmen's rifles, and the camera focuses in on the gun so much we can no longer see the hippies. Then all the guns go off... It's Most likely a reference to the Kent State shootings. With this famous photograph of a different protest. Also used during the cut scene where Hollis Mason is murdered.

Carla Gugino as the elderly Sally Jupiter is far prettier and healthy looking than how the character was drawn, as she originally looked frail and I Was Quite a Looker is a major part of her personality. Patrick Wilson as Nite Owl II may not look just like in the graphic novel (being far less tubby than Dan was), but considering Dan was a male version of Beautiful All Along once Laurie pulled off his glasses in the original too, it's hard to see this as a problem. As far as Matthew Goode as Ozymandias is concerned, the average fan is equally likely to either find him incredibly handsome or complain about his enormous eyes, rather understated chin (in contrast to the graphic novel's Lantern Jaw of Justice), and long neck. The characters' costumes also tend to be dramatically more impressive in the film, most notable with Nite Owl II looking like Batman and Rorschach's costume seemingly having been washed this decade.

Nowadays, a saintly seeming character in a work otherwise full of grim antiheroes sticks out really obviously as the villain, so in the film Veidt becomes a glacial, aloof, rather sneering figure to actually detract the likelihood of his being the culprit from a newcomer's POV — only for it to still be him. But then it's twisted again in the end by how much less at peace he seems than his comic-book counterpart...

Watchmen / int_603f1a80	comment	Pragmatic Adaptation: The original comic passed through generations of filmmakers, including the likes of Terry Gilliam, trying to make it into a comprehensible movie. It became famous for being impossible to adapt to the screen. Among the reasons listed is the constantly switching narrative (the first chapter is mostly the perspective of the police investigating Comedian's death), the page layout being too intricately crafted to replicate in a film (the chapter "Fearful Symmetry" mirrors itself in color and layout) and the non-linear order (Dr. Manhattan alone sees time as omni-present, leading to his chapter being about him experiencing all major events of his life at once). The film's solution was to replicate the story as closely as possible, using the comic itself as a storyboard (much like Snyder's adaptation of 300), and streamline the narrative to keep the focus on the principle characters. The antagonist's plot is simplified to reduce the number of new concepts needing to be explained to the audience: instead of Veidt sending a genetically engineered squid upon a major city to scare the world into fearing an alien invasion, he detonates Dr. Manhattan-inspired bombs (of comparable strength to a nuke) around the world to make them fear Dr. Manhattan personally, achieving the same effect of distracting the world from nuclear war and being more open to world peace. This has caused some debate as to its value compared to the original comic, while it may have lost that visceral reaction to such a devastating event, many said it possibly improves upon the original by being simpler and better foreshadowed.

He's shaky, staring into space, and looking like he's about to fall over. Of course, the fact that what he did saved the world could make this just as strongly count as a Heroic BSoD. Ozymandias actually confirms this on screen. He is the type of person that despises killing and would not normally ever willingly do it. But the destruction he caused was the only way to prevent global nuclear annihilation (conflict between the US and USSR which was rapidly approaching). He killed millions, to prevent a nuclear holocaust that would kill billions. And he stated that he forced himself to feel every single death and that he would have to live with that burden.

Ozymandias in the comics presented himself with a pleasant, charming and charismatic exterior, and maintained a high degree of self-confidence. Matthew Goodes' performance is colder and more introspective, making him more self-aware on what he is doing. Rorschach was a calculating and unnervingly calm character, when unmasked his expression conveys boredom and disinterest. In the film every line feels like he is about to snap with barely contained rage.

Watchmen / int_9002083e	comment	Character Exaggeration: More likely to be cited by those who didn't like it. That said, Rorschach is undeniably more forward with his prejudices in the movie. Rorschach's craziness and morbid personality are a little more scaled back in the movie though. In the book he seemed calmer and creepier in his actions (Laurie says he gave her the creeps, even before he went truly crazy), while in the movie Jackie Earle Haley plays him more like a small terrier, with lots of anger and aggression. His facial expression, blank in the book, is a lot more of a scowl in the movie as well. Thanks to the Bloodier and Gorier aesthetic, Dan and Laurie end up mutilating and killing criminals (where in the comic they would leave them with non-permanent injuries at most). This brings their methods much closer to Rorschach's and undermines what Moore intended by creating costumed heroes of differing levels of violence and compassion.

Veidt could've probably stood completely still and been perfectly safe, considering his first two shots aren't even close to hitting him while he's standing still. And much earlier, Rorschach proves he IS completely safe standing still, conveniently framed in a busted window, as a police officer fires at him. Although we see the officer looking startled by Rorschach's abrupt off-screen disappearance from the window, moments before is a shot of the vigilante looking calmly over his shoulder as his face is lit up by the flash, as though mocking the cop's poor aim. And later, Rorschach evades automatic gunfire from a SWAT team in the close quarters of a janky stairwell. Unlike Veidt, Rorschach is not faster than a bullet; but apparently he IS faster than a trained gunman.

The use of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" during Dan and Laurie's sex scene. The song was already meant to be ironic and melancholy. The use of the word "Hallelujah" in contrast to the general mood of the song only emphasizes its mood, making it even more melancholy.

It helps to establish that he's just that cunning. Sadly because this was done rather subtly, quite a few viewers saw it as Ooh, Me Accent's Slipping or just plain wondered What the Hell Is That Accent? There's a video of the actor discussing the role doing the switch very suddenly and for contrast, going from his own British accent to explaining that "Veidt's public peRRsona is veRRy AmeRRican" [in an American accent, hard Rs and all] "bot oo-en hhe iss in pri-vit he bekomms a bit Gehr-mahn" [in a German accent].

Watchmen / int_f3f6d99c	comment	Scary Symbolic Shapeshifting: During the animated Tales of the Black Freighter chapters, the shipwrecked captain appears to physically degenerate as the horror of his efforts to save his homeland weigh upon him, at one point even manifesting Black Eyes of Evil and a grin full of shark teeth. However, though there is a supernatural element of the Black Freighter comic, it's clear that this is intended to be a strictly symbolic transformation given that he appears fully human when he arrives home.

If not, the opening montage (which includes among others, two dead women with "LESBIAN WHORES" written on a nearby wall in something red that looks very much like it could be their own blood) could be enough.
