Eh, too much CGI for me. I'll pick it up when it's in my local bargain DVD store.
That and I really don't care for Zack Snyder.

But you have to give the guy credit. He was able to adapt Watchmen where other directors like Terry Gilliam, Paul Greengrass, and Darren Aronofsky failed.

I actually didn't like Watchmen, although I didn't see the director's cut. I would have liked to see Gilliam do it.

Ending blew, rest of the movie was good up to then.

Neither did I. I actually got so bored that I stopped watching after an hour, and then watched the rest of it on a night when I was even more bored.

When I think about it, Snyder's entire reputation rests pretty much on two films so far - "Dawn of the Dead" and "300", and IMO, the latter is grossly overrated (even though I liked it the first time I saw it).

If he would have done it, it would have been so epic our feeble minds wouldn't be able to handle the epicness.

Don't over-use the word "epic", especially when talking about movies. Otherwise, the "epicness" of the word is inherently diluted.

ANyone who uses "epic" more than 150 times before age 18 should not be allowed to breed. Tests scores would skyrocket after one generation

I liked Dawn of the Dead, 300, and Watchmen. Unlike he gives us the Superman equivalent of "Batman and Robin," I think he gets the benefit of the doubt.
