Tired of that man. All he does is bytch and moan about everything people do with shyt he claims as his own or is his own. While also forgetting his shyt isn’t creator owned; DC owns watchmen and can do whatever they want with it. If he’s got an issue take it up with them. Man is sitting on piles of money and all he does is bytch bytch bytch

My thing with him is he sold the film rights for these things didn’t he ?

 

[Abraxus]

This shyt will be epic. Can’t wait

No if you work for dc, they own everything...like Suge with Pacs masters...from what I understand (and im. No expert) has lost millions just by not wanting involvment in the projects created off his work. He wont even consult on them...i find that kinda odd but then again he wrote a comic about the sexual adventures of Dorothy (from wiz of oz) Alice from wonderland and wendy darling...so hes a bit off, for how great he is.

I don’t think he ever owned them. Dc does. He was a creator for hire

Leftovers was a classic. I can't wait for this shyt. HBO basically undefeated recently

No I'm not wrong. I'm saying he's paid, which he is. If not from this, then from his other works. Moore isn't broke. But the ultimate point is, after a while, stop bytching which is what I would do. I don't want to be or wouldn't want to be that person who created something dope and constantly bytched about it until I was blue in the face; the shyt isn't cool after a while. There are two ways to handle the situation, with grace and the way he's handled it. I'd choose the former

Terrible Coli opinion top to bottom sad cuz u felt smart writing this

Ehh I feel smart all the time so I’m never too worried about someone telling me my opinion is terrible. Regardless of what smileys they use to make themselves feel like big, bad, men.

Moore didn't want to be involved with any adaptations of his work after the shytshow that was the production of The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen. He loosely accepted the adaptation part for the money and part because he believed the comic itself would stand strong with the movie taking lots of creative liberties. But Fox got hit with a lawsuit by Larry Cohen (screenwriter of Phone Booth, Maniac Cop, Black Caesar) who said Fox plagiarized the movie from an idea he pitched in the 90s and used the comic book as a ploy to hide the true inspiration (all of the story changes made the movie closer to the originally pitched idea by Cohen). Moore got caught up in the middle of the lawsuit, felt his name and work misused and vowed never to involve himself into adaptations of his work ever again.

Not saying the guy can't be full of himself (it is certainly ironic he complains a lot about the mishandling of his writings when he himself wrote pornography with characters from Alice In Wonderland, Peter Pan and The Wizard Of Oz) but the man is in the same place as CM Punk is with wrestling. He doesn't want anything to do with the shyt anymore but people keep asking him about it, so of course he remains a sourpuss about it.

Woooooow. Good looks man. Learned some new shyt today.

Alan Moore is fukkery personified

@TheGodling that CM Punk/Wrestling analogy is spot on from everything Ive heard about him.

I don’t think he ever owned them. Dc does. He was a creator for hire

I thought there was some deal where he was suppose to get the rights once the book went out of print( none of the characters are technically legacy characters) but it became so popular that DC kept reissuing collections and keeping the rights because it was so popular.
