So, I was entertained when I saw Watchmen. It had amazing music.

I swear that all of it was chosen by amusement criteria, which is highly awesome. It was wonderfully comic book-y and the texture of it was great.

Viewing Watchmen I didn't do much analytical thinking. There's all sorts of shiny and violence and stuff to distract you from things. This vid, then, is incredibly useful, because it's a vid and it examines. It's about the relationship between Rorschach and Dan, which is something that I just accepted in the film, but there's a very interesting question in here: what is Rorschach doing in a partnership? (...and how is it that he's with the person who appears most well-adjusted in the film?) It's a vid that inspires questions. For me, anyway.
