Watchmen Creator ... Officially Bonkers

Yet another Watchmen related post? OK I may be going on a bit too much about this flick but the back story of how such a movie is being made is way to interesting to be ignored.

Alan Moore is the English writer behind the Watchmen graphic novel, according to Time Magazine it is one of the 20th centuries greatest pieces of literature, which was issued as a limited series of DC comics in the late 80s. His other most famous creation is V for Vendetta which was released as a movie in 2006.

"Moore sometimes wears metallic talons, describes himself as an anarchist and, in the past, has told interviewers that he worships an ancient Roman snake god. But what's really unusual about him is that he seems to be the very last creator in comics who would hang up on Hollywood anytime it calls." Read more on Geof Bouchers LA Times
