MOVIE URBAN LEGEND<\/b><\/u>: Zack Snyder said that he couldn’t get into “normal comics” when he was growing up because there was not enough “sex or killing.”<\/p>\n

I had a buddy who tried getting me into “normal” comic books, but I was all like, “No one is having sex or killing each other. This isn\u2019t really doing it for me.” I was a little broken, that way. So when Watchmen came along, I was, “This is more my scene.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
