Who was watching?
Yesterday I saw the work of a master, which first appeared in the 80s, but has been updated to the new millennium. While a handful of gifted costumed champions were featured, one stood apart from the others – a blue god, indomitable, possessing abilities beyond those of common men, an unnatural vision of what’s coming and an inhuman calm. It was several hours of sustained, often brutal, action and spectacle…though the ending was a bit disappointing.
And I also saw Watchmen.

I just finished watching the match today; couldn’t get to a computer to watch the video while it was going live. It’s like every match is a 20/20 for the Indian side. Unreal batting, particularly from that Little Master of theirs.
Saw Watchmen as well. Pretty entertaining way to spend 3 hours.

Now there’s a coincidence. I watched the game upto the point where Sachin reached his century…and then headed out to watch the Watchmen. In the end I was doubly disappointed – both by the movie (which was a little too faithful to the book for its own good) and the fact that I missed Jesse Ryder’s onslaught.
Nice write-up on the parallels, though. The difference being (in my opinion) Sachin was at his vintage best while the most tiresome bits of the movie were reserved for Dr.Manhattan.
