My brain hurts. xkcd. I shouldn't read horror, even horror-as-a-satire-of-critical-analysis.

Also, last week I finally saw Watchmen. It was like watching Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy again - a movie made by some people who obviously really, really loved the source material but had little idea how to make anything but a blockbuster action movie. Watchman strains when hammered into that kind of mould, even when the director tried to stay true to the source material. Nite Owl was wonderful, Manhattan was good, Rorschach was inconsistent, Silk Specter was bad, and Ozymandias was a freaking catastrophe.
