The Mindscape Of Alan Moore

Am I the only one on here who's seen this film? (This isn't calling you out, it's had a very limited screening)

It covers lots of ground perhaps better covered elsewhere (such as some of the content of the George Khoury book), but has some very good interview footage indeed with Alan Moore showing he's as funny in conversation as some of the CDs imply he might be.

Perhaps the most impressive bit, however, are the cut scenes from some of the comics. The opening parts of V For Vendetta and Watchmen are both here, pretty much how you'd want to see them on the screen. But made for within the total film budget of $10,000 - most of which went on the Swamp Thing model used in one cut-scene, and most of the rest on the Constantine steadicam shot at the end. Does anyone want to bet this vision of V is better than the forthcoming film?

one year passes...

I just finished watching this, it's very, very good and shows both Moore's humor and much Moore is influenced by Robert Anton Wilson and his ideas and influences - as the whole movie could be played as a sequel to Robert Anton Wilson's 'Maybe Logic', especially Moore's ideas, via RAW, in-turn via Korzybski that 'the map is not the territory' or that all we experience is our own perceptions and not any underlying reality. My copy also had subtitles for Moore, as that is one strong, malty and robust Northampton accent, "Oih buh-leaiveh oiah culltuarh is turneaning into steahm"
