I did not realize this was supposed to be a sequel. Thought it was a new adaptation. Can't say that interests me as much.

Im super excited for this and love that its a sequel. That means Damon Lindelof wont be too constrained by source material and can just go crazy.

The Leftovers got so much better in season 2 when they werent directly working off a book anymore.

and they got Jeremy Irons to be Ozymandias! Thats going to be so good.

I think theyve said officially that this is a sequel to the original comic. Any other Watchmen sequels are non canon to this show.

Huh.

Looks intriguing, but didn't hype me for some reason.

Prequels and a crossover, but no real sequel.

Oh look big surprise. Ozymandius' plan didn't do what it was supposed to

I prefer sequels- I want to see new stuff happen, I already know the old story

You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured.

A show "exclusively seen on HBO" people will forget about in a year from now.

*cough* 13 Reasons Why *cough*

And yeah I know 13RW was on Netflix. Same thing.

I'm on board the hype train for this. Really looking forward to some new content with these characters from a fresher voice.

As a side note, the original pitch for Watchmen was for a group of Archie Comics superheroes. When that didn't pan out, the pitch was reworked for Blue Beetle, Captain Atom and a host of other recently-acquired Charlton characters DC purchased. It's crazy to think how the most well-known graphic novel of all time could have been completely different.
