I like the movie, but it's got a slightly different plot than the comics and shifts in context for some of the more political ideas presented there. If suffers from Snyderism though so be forewarned.wease wrote:Wasn’t a big fan of the comic. Didn’t figure I’d like the movie any better.

So what I'm getting from this is we're getting a decent score but that's about it.On May 22, 2018, Lindelof posted a five-page open letter to fans of the comic book series wherein he revealed that the television series would not be a direct adaptation of the source material or a sequel to it either but instead would depict a new, original story.[9] On August 17, 2018, it was announced that HBO had given the production a series order for a first season set to premiere in 2019.[10] On September 20, 2018, it was reported that score for the series would be composed by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross.[11]

I don’t know if the characters translate well outside of the context of the original work and I worry it will just be too tempting to swap in Trump for Nixon.Monkey_Driven wrote:I'd rather have an original story than a TV version of the movie/graphic novel.Bi_3 wrote:I’ll try it, but an original story?
