Try a used College Book Store.
Many Literature classes are either reading Watchmen or The Dark Knight Returns.
You may be able to get it for 15 or even 10 bucks.

I'm still
at how well they got Rorschach down.
I hope they don't deviate too much from the movie. Movies that are made from comics seem to be subpar in my opinion. Wanted is a great example.
Falcon have you read that other Alan Moore novel, I sort of forget its name but I think its called Brought to Light?

For that price I can get it new at Barnes and Noble/Amazon though. I'd either rent it from the library for free or buy it from Barnes andNoble since its closer.

Should be epic.
I don't know how it's going to be able to come close to the GN though...

I've read the GN and I just don't see this movie being as good as people are expecting. Are they going to put in the pirate story? Are they going tofast forward through events? I remember reading that Alan Moore said he wrote the story to be unfilmable on purpose. This is one of the best books I have everread and there is too much in it to fit into a 2 hour movie. And as a personal opinion, a "visionary" director isn't someone who chooses to useslow motion capture in scenes where others would not

Well the movie is expected to be 2.5 hours at least and whatever unfilmable items are goign to release in animation form or other books I believe.
Snyder did 300 justice and page for page accurate when it comes to the comic book so I expect the same in this case.
The story is perfect as is and keeping true to that will make this movie great.
Nice Emoticons john23.

--Saw on Yahoo that the movie clocks in at about 2 hours and 46 mins. Pretty hefty.

for those interested and that have a ps3, the online store has the full motion comic of the whole book. visually stunning and is the actual pages and drawingsfrom the book. have to buy it in chapters but the whole thing will run you about $24 and is def worth it

nice. Still undecided about reading it before the movie though. Since I'm not too familiar with them, I'd like to be able to watch the movie notknowing anything and then going back and reading the comic book. I'll d/l anyway though
