For a film this size it needed its domestic to be better plain and simple. The film will just creep past 100 mill and more than likely wind up around the 120 mark if its lucky. It dropped 78% this weekend. That is terrible for a film that needed to have legs. Thats a bigger percentage drop than the happening. DVD will help but this was an extremely expensive film and it is going to struggle to break even. heads will roll at the studio over this. it has opened overseas in a ton of places and is not setting the BO on fire.

The opening credits sequence with the music was great and put you in the mood. My only problem with the film was their was one scene of violence that grossed me out, and also, while it didn't phase me as much as I thought it would and I can understand why the director did this, I wasn't thrilled seeing Dr. Manhattan's penis. Other than that, the movie rocked. Oh and another thing, is anyone on this sight complaining about the ending? I liked it and all, but I'd figure it would be argued about. The soundtrack was awesome.

Id put money on it. It makes a hell of a lot more sense and the ending was the only part of the book I actually disliked... SS2 is a lot stronger of a character and less whiney in the movie as well. At least thats how she come off to me... You will like the ending of the movie 100% better. Id put money on it.
