also, the movie had a genuine Blade Runner feel to it. Mainly due to some Vangelis sounding soundtrack music.
Which wasn't a bad thing.

it's pretty cheesy but it does make the movie feel alien and unique .
But no, I don't care for Vangelis.

I've heard more compelling music out of Simon's mobile-and even those lullabies don't make me as sleepy.

I liked it plenty, so did my huge-blue-dong-loving girl. But I never read it, so I had no idea what I was walking into.
I like the first hour the best, the conclusion dragged a lil for me.
And btw, sheesh, they ripped off a bunch of stuff from The Incredibles!!
(wink)

Problems:
[spoiler]1. On Dr. Manhattan had actual powers, right? How come everyone was able to be thrown full-speed into blocks of cement and marble and get up with barely a scratch? Everyone appeared to have superstrength.
2. Using "All along the Watchtower" for the final showdown. They were doing some nice era-appropriate music up til then. (especially the Tears for Fears muzak in Veidt's lobby)[/spoiler]

a lot of the music references come from the comic.
issue #10 was titled "TWO RIDERS WERE APPROACHING" and throughout that issue you kinda had these images that were drawing that parallel. that issue ends with Rorschach and Nite-Owl approaching the arctic base.
But you're right. In the movie it just kinda comes out of left field.

I don't think Simon and Garfunkel was in the comic though..
