I went and saw Watchmen at the Spectrum at 3:30 AM. I went alone. The theater was packed.

Here are my run time notes:

1. Photo had Nixon, not Ford.
2. Future looks Darker, and the Past–even the grimmy parts–looks brighter.
3. Stereo in bedroom with records & cd’s
4. “I just had the locks installed”
   “I did not know where else to go”
5. Birds, Airplanes, Mythology
6. You refuse to see life on lifes terms
7. Pioneer Publishing logo is a Rorschach.

And some observations

1. To the blond arty pixie chick sitting next to me with the geeky boyfriend–you give us all hope! I love the way you curl your feet up onto the chair. Your loud observation during the costumed love scene that “She is Horney” may have been the best part of the movie.
2. to the ticket booth guy–I know working the three am shift is a drag, but when you said “I Max?” and I responded “I Tarzan!” you could have at least smiled.
3. To the overweight, lesbian, festy crew sitting in front of me–way to stay focused.
4. To the ushers who were not handing out 3D glasses–what?
5. To the guy who missed the BF sub ploy–I am really impressed that you read the comic. Really.
6. To the guy who wanted to see Watchman made into a two part movie “or maybe three like Lord of the Rings”–your blind obedience to inner voices will one day pay off!
7. to the massive mexican skin heads–nice popcorn spill.
8. To the guy in black who felt like he was walking out of a Vegas Casino–you need to get out more.
9. To the girl in the plaid skirt–The answer to your question was as obvious as your delight at all the attention.
