“Because face it. All this time…You there, with the Smiley-face pin. Admit it. All this time, you’ve been waiting for a director who was going to hit you in the face with this story. To just crack you in the jaw, and then bend you over the pool table with this story. With its utterly raw view of the darkest sides of human nature, expressed through its masks of action and beauty and twisted good intentions. Like a fry-basket full of hot grease in the face. Like the Comedian on the Grassy Knoll. I know, I know…”
David Hayter, screenwriter of Watchmen
In an incredibe letter to the fans, Hayter thoughtfully and poignantly discusses his pride in how this film turned out, and his plea for fans to continue to support the film. This states everything that yesterday’s article did, only more eloquently, passionately, and in a tone that will make others actually want to see the film. And maybe even, hopefully, see it again. Read the entire letter to AintItCoolNews here.
