I disagree - I had been ambivalent on seeing Watchmen, until I read a Moore interview prior to the LXG movie lawsuit disaster when he was talking quite reasonably about movie adaptations of his works, and said he would rather see something like "Blade Runner", where the movie took its own take on his work that could…

Look, there's some properties that are tied to creators.  LOTR is Tolkien, Dune is Frank Herbert (sorry KJA and Brian Herbert), and Watchmen is always going to be Moore.
 That doesn't mean the story is bad or good.  But, as Warren Ellis once said about fan fiction, why not take that creative energy to make something…

The only two games I'm aware of is an actually not-bad FMV game where you play an ordinary FBI agent who ends up involved in an X-Files case that involves Mulder and Scully vanishing (most of the regulars have bit parts in the game) and the console X-Files game - I don't think they've made one since then.

Oddly enough, the X-Files game (the second one) ended up being more entertaining than a lot of the later episodes, which is odd because it apparently arose from three episodes that Chris Carter had plotted out.  (Of course, that you get to play Scully and Mulder shooting up zombies around a town at the start of the…

Twin Peaks at least had Lynch coming back at the end - and rewatching it recently, it really only lost focus between the mystery being solved and Windom Earle showing up (as soon as James drives off into oblivion, it really begins picking up speed again).

Get out of here, Stalker!

I'm guessing that it will be an attempt to ape the highest-rated episodes without understanding anything about what made them great.
 You're almost guaranteed a paintball episode (although one with as little paint as possible as that costs money and the sets have to be reused)

Season 2 of "Walking Dead" seemed short on… well, the walking dead.  Also, it seemed like their budget somehow became inversely related to their success in Season 1.

I almost feel bad for the new guys.  "Okay, if you could just shoot everything within these three sets, that would be great.  Otherwise, the sky is the limit!"

"If you were really a fan of the show…"   Sigh.  Apart from sounding like a Sony shill, that's nonsense - and to turn it around, if Sony wanted the show to succeed, maybe they could've (a) tried harder than doing absolutely nothing to work things out or (b) not screwed over NBC by doing this after the show was…

Back in the day ("day" being defined as "the early 90s") Lifes Rich Pageant was held up as the "quintessential" REM album by a lot of fans. Never got that myself - the album is almost as throw-away as Dead Letter Office, with a cover, old staples revamped for the album, and songs left over from previous album…
