I once made a handshake up with my brother that was based on the characters in this very film. This a film deeply misunderstood for its time that people tend to revisit, or re-edit it in new ways to try and find its potential. I do think the story, in terms of superhero stories, is way more interesting as a whole than MANY of the Marvel Avenger films that made probably 15 times as much money in the box office as Watchmen. Watchmen took chances and I believe that HBO is making a show out of Watchmen due to this untapped potential.
