Open Watching the Watchmen Post

Good movie, fine movie or sacrilege?

I liked it. There are some false steps, but not enough to spoil a good effort.

Credits:
*Opening sequence
*Lack of giant squid
*Rorshach largely handled appropriately
*Mostly made sensible choices about what to exclude

Debits:
*Soundtrack choices often distracting
*Some of the speechifying came off as overwrought
*Contained most hilarious sex scene in the history of movies

Is Futurama Coming Back?! :The Sequel

David X Cohen, co-creator and producer and writer, gives it even odds:

The good news is there seems to be a genuine fact that the powers that be at Fox are discussing more Futurama. The bad news is they’re not discussing it with us. They are only talking among themselves, and I don’t know what they’re thinking. I place the odds at 50/50.
