Alan Moore reads Rorschach’s Journal

1. It's creepy. I'll give you that. But Moore's a bit monotone. I'll take the professional actors version. "Watchmen" is now my favorite Jackie Earle Haley movie, replacing "Breaking Away." But unless Watchmen becomes a TV series, "Breaking Away" will still be my favorite Jackie Earle Haley TV show! And speaking of creepy, Jackie Earle Haley is slated to star as Freddie Kruger in a "Nightmare on Elm Street" reboot due in 2010.

2. I have to disagree, Russ. When I first read Watchmen, Rorschach's Journal and dialog all sounded monotone in my head. For me, this was a guy who had had all the feelings beaten out of him long ago. To be honest, even Moore's reading had more inflection than I would expect from Rorschach.

   1. I'm with you on this one Jon, I feel he did a great job at reading it, just dug up my copys of the COMIC to reread to see how my voice sounds !

3. Clean up on aisle 6 please. Mr. Fishman wet himself again. Gotta go with Jon on this one, if only because it's just THAT creepy. Obviously this materials should not have the thick british accent, but… I just love moore's ungodly baritone.Now please Mr. Moore… take that knife from beneath my chin….

4. This recording is a couple of years old. Why is this being posted as news? It's not even like you can use the movie as an excuse since that's been out of theatres for months.

   1. I had never heard it before. It's News to me! Here's Moore singing "Sinister Ducks!" It's even older and more out of context! Woo hoo! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFK2Xq2RyiU

5. Sounds like a drunk Grinch. Awesome.
