5. I've loved the comic since it came out when I was 15. The movie is a C+

Is Alan Moore a drunk? I may have to revise...

7. Saw the movie, never read the comic.
I've heard a lot of people say the same thing. My son is reading the book now, I'll read it when he's done.

Don't know if Moore's a drunk, but he did get expelled from school at 17 for dealing LSD.

Junkies and whores, the lot.

But, they made some heavenly music.

12. I don't think so. Sometimes the view from the bottom is the most accurate, know what I mean?

13. I don't know - I find flawed people more interesting than otherwise
Flawed people tend to produce great art - pain is very compelling. And being able to articulate your pain in some way is pretty inspiring. I don't know if your heroes are of that type, but to me those people show me that maybe there's hope for me to do something beautiful even while I spiral around in pain. :shrug:
