Watchmen - Rorshach: You're locked in here with me!

I just noticed this was in cooking. Just because it is a fryer, doesn't mean it belongs here.
The cooking channel has a strict anti-cannibalism policy, then.

Watchmen - Rorshach: You're locked in here with me!
>> ^Sylvester_Ink:
I thought the movie was pretty decent and all, but one thing I object to is that Rorschach was never this sadistically brutal in the GN. In the GN he uses the cooking fat as a quick way to defend himself, but here he uses it as a coup-de-grace that's really unnecessary.
The same goes for the flashback scene of the child rapist. He does not outright murder the guy, as he does in the film, but provides him with a more fitting punishment.
And finally, there's his killing of Big Figure. In the GN he drowns the guy because that's the quickest and most efficient method he has on hand. In the movie . . . well, although we didn't see it, it was certainly unnecessary.
That's what made Rorschach a likable character in the comic. He was dispensing justice in his own way, but here it seems to be a slaughter he savors, and that makes him less likable a character.
Ah well, enough from me.
Weird, I'll have to reread the GN to say for sure, its been a few months, but I remember the whole thing with Big Figure going down about the same way. I at least remember laughing at the blood leaking out from under the bathroom door. I thought this scene and the one with the pedophile murderer being fairly close. Maybe I read into it a bit differently.
All and all I was impressed by the movie, it seemed to stay fairly true to the GN aside from obvious time issues(no guy floating around on dead bodies in a GN series for starters), and the complete lack of tentacled beast at the end.

I thought that the whole point of Rorschach wasn't to be a "likeable" character, but then again, I experienced watchmen in the wrong order. I watched the movie first, then went and read the gn over the course of the next few days.
Anyway, I thought that one of the main dramatic thrusts of Watchmen was the moral ambiguity of vigilante-ism. Here's Rorschach, the most principled super-hero in the series, treated like an anti-social murderer. And, well... isn't he?
I actually really didn't like how he dispensed with the child molester in the movie, nor the graphic novel. The movie was too grindhouse, whereas in the GN he's basically laying down some plot points for the movie Saw, 20 years earlier.
OH, I should mention, I HATE the movie Saw, so that is a bad thing.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)
The guy who played Rorshach was very good - and kind of stole the show. Evidently he's the next Freddy Kruger as well.

Interestingly enough, the line is not said in the comic directly. There it's told indirectly through the psychologist and his notes; "Rorshach said (...)"

My favourite line from the comic!
Oh the horror, the horror! Snakes and Fishies eaten alive!
That fish thing might just be the worst thing I've ever seen.

Brilliant! Laurie as a pop star seems so right. Also love that Rorshach is a friend of Alsatians
