Oh, now I have to have a Watchmen release party.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

It could be a costume party, except then you'd have to worry about someone showing up naked with their skin dyed blue....

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Well, what are the odds that anyone inclined to do so will look like Billy Crudup?

Ah. The essential ComicCon flaw.

Yeah. I'd have been more ethused about the popularity of 300 a couple years ago if more of its convention-going fans had the abs for the costumes.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Steph posted this in COMM already, but I think Matt's comment needs to be added.
I barked laughter out loud after reading it.

I've been trying to get a group to go as the Watchmen for Halloween for years, but no one will consent to being Dr. Manhattan. At least not while sober, and Dr. Manhatten passed out drunk on the sofa and only blue on the visible parts just isn't right.

Or as Funeral-Going-To!Dr. Manhattan, with a wet suit!
Plus he did have a costume, back in the day. He just decided to stop wearing it at some point.
