140. Watchmen isn't so much popular as it is important (not saying it's not popular too) - the context makes all the difference. This was the eighties, and after years and years of stuff like this (http://superdickery.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=76:people-starving-in-the-world-jimmy-cares-not&catid=29:confounding-comic-covers-index&Itemid=32) with comics being "for kids!" and not being respected as a medium, all of a sudden there was a bunch of comics (Watchmen isn't the only one, but one of the most notable). It was essentially, one of the first comics on level as literature, rather than pulp. It had layers. It had depth. It had symbolism. It referenced current events. I read Watchmen right around the time I was learning about the Cold War in history class, so it helped.

I don't really blame you for not liking it, but I think it's more important than being 'popular'.

But the trailer really was one of the best trailers I've seen, even if it was kind of misleading.

154. I would love some fics exploring Sheppard's darker side. Those were some of my favorite episodes. Like the one in the mist with his buddies - and he's all cautious around them because - yeah.

156. Most of my fandoms have problems. Doesn't mean I don't stop liking them - but I find that it's better to know that it has problems than accept it without thought.

Watchmen isn't so much popular as it is important.

Thank you. That's exactly the point, summed up right there. Like so many classics, it's not so much about being a fun way to kill time as it is about the impact it had on the artform.


Also, a fun way to kill time.
