Sorry for the quietness round these parts in recent days/weeks.
Real life has been real busy and there is another project taking up most of my time at the moment.
All will be revealed shortly.
In the meantime we saw Watchmen (on IMAX!!) at the weekend. I think it worked pretty well considering the context. It’s obviously made by someone who loves the comic book (perhaps too much to make it into a great film). The more you think about what is missing, the more more you wish he’d had the budget to make it as a 12 episode HBO series-and really done it justice.
That said, I can’t wait to see the extended cut and the ‘Tales of the Black Freighter‘ looks amazing and if you’re in the mood for more Moore, there’s a great interview with the charmingly obtuse scribe/magician/beard from yesterday’s Guardian that’s really worth reading.
Speak soon.
