Watchmen thoughts:

It's amazing how much make-up and new hairstyles can transform a person so much. I admit, I was a bit infatuated over the character Rorshach. Something about his solo walking, deep voice, fearlessness, and words makes him seem so cool.

And then he took off his mask, and I saw that the actor was Jackie Earle Haley! The same guy that played the creepy sex offender in the movie Little Children! He suddenly got a lot more attractive with orange hair and an attitude. What a great actor! He can transform so quickly! And here I was thinking, right after I watched Little Children, that Haley specialized in playing creepy outcast roles. But no! He can play a superhero! Oh by the way, the name Rorshach is really clever, the way it matches with his mask. Props to the writers of the graphic novel.

Another example of an amazing transformation: the actor Patrick Wilson who played Nite Owl II. He was gorgeous in Little Children, and yet in Watchmen, he is kind of nerdy and starting to bald. I didn't recognize him with the glasses and had to look at the credits to realize who he was!

A third example, Matthew Goode, who played the British heart throb in Chasing Liberty. In Watchmen, he completely lost his accent, became a blonde and played a (sort of) villainous, cold role as Ozymandias.

Though I can't act as well as the three above, I am now wondering how different I could look with different hairstyles or hair colours...or no hair! (haha kidding) Nevertheless, so many possibilities to explore!
