those arent bad well 300 and watchmen , if you read the source material i'd say they are great adaptations, tbh i think they are good movies for what they are made from, was never gonna appeal to alot of people tbh

I hate stuff that sticks TOO close to the source material when adapting to a film.  It's also why I don't like the animated version of Dark Knight Returns.  They need to update stuff from the 80s to fit modern times and adapt certain story elements to fit the medium of film.  For some reason with comics, novels, and graphic novels people always seem to get mad if anything changes.  They are adaptations not copies and when they copy it just shows lack of originality and laziness clothed in "respecting the source material"

Real talk? I would have HATED the version of Watchmen you would have liked. If it took place in the modern day and was full of corny superhero fluff, I would have wished it into a fire.
