Description Nomad's Journal. February 25, 2009:

Didn't sleep tonight. Rarely do these days.

Got bored while working on NFR. Decided to do something a little different.

Read 'Watchmen' recently. Liked it. Liked the character 'Rorschach' even more.

Is it pronounced, "raw-shack" or "ror-shock"? Heard it pronounced both ways..

Hurrm....oh well.

New favorite superhero? Possibly.

=Nomad=

nb4 'lulz diz isnt sawnik?? o_O;;;;'

(Okay yeah, this movie better not suck. Seriously.)

Everyone calls him "roar-shack" in the movie and in the official narration of the novel, though.

It's pronounced "raw-shack", =3. I'm really glad you did this though. I loved the movie greatly, and haven't had the chance to read it yet, ^^". I love Rorschach and Dr. Manhattan. Both VERY interesting characters, .

Personally, watchmen didn't sit too well with me. Everyone was too damn depressed.

Yeah, it's definitely not the best book ever, but I liked it enough to hope that they don't rape it in theaters.

Odin-Lionheart In reply to Nomad-The-Hedgehog [2009-02-27 03:14:34 +0000 UTC]

I feel the rape cannot be avoided (gosh, that felt funny writing). From the trailer alone it feels like they are gloryfying and adding special effects to a degree it completely misses the point.
But I will see it and give my vote.

Yeah, not many instances where you get to say that. O_o

To me, it just looks...unappealing. I can't quite put my finger on it. But yeah, I'll prolly go see it for posterity.

It's not quite as bad as the Dragon Ball Z or the Chun Li movies. At least they try to follow the source-material here.

Have you seen the tie-in game though?

Fangette [2009-02-26 03:08:20 +0000 UTC]

It's definitely pronounced ror-shock. There's a video on youtube where the author of watchmen reads a page from Rorschach's journal aloud... it drips awesomeness. Anyway, you'll hear him pronounce it there.

Fun fact: Dr. Rorschach was the man who invented the ink blot tests.

Ai!! Yes, I too cannot wait for this movie. Excellent piece of art. It looks almost identical to the one in my copy of the book. You are very good.

Yeah, I used that as a bit of reference, while trying not to make it a carbon copy. Didn't want people yelling "TRACE'D U SONICFAG" at me. :/

Doesn't look traced. Heh. So, waiting for March 6th, or have you already reserved the premiere tickets?

RaketTH [2009-02-26 00:16:11 +0000 UTC]

Very well done.
I've never actually heard of The Watchmen until the movie came out. I do have a question about him though. What is his power? After I saw Rorschach I became intrigued by him.

Nomad-The-Hedgehog In reply to RaketTH [2009-02-26 02:43:06 +0000 UTC]

Power? He uhm.

...he breaks pinkys? He doesn't really have a power per se, he's more like Batman, without the gadgets. Read the novel before seeing the movie, you can download it via torrents and such. You'll see what I mean.

Just make sure you have a lot of free time, it's a doozy. I think nearly 500 pages? Not sure. But it's long.

I pronounce it 'raw-shack'.

Then again, I ALSO pronounce it 'Toh-mah-toh'.. (No, I don't that's just retarded...)

Nomad-The-Hedgehog In reply to manic-the-lad [2009-02-26 00:03:28 +0000 UTC]

Well I saw part of the audio book adaptation of the novel and they pronounced it that way, but ol' Merriam Webster says, "NO 'RAW-SHOCK' FAGS."

I am so confused. o_o

I think maybe that's just part of the character's mindfuck games, you know? We're not supposed really know how that damn name is pronounced....
