Watcher chat: Answering your 'Dollhouse,' 'Mad Men,' 'Chuck' questions

Are Critics Or Crowds Right About 'Watchmen'?

Watchmen topped the box office in its opening weekend, but critics across the country panned the film. John Ridley, who has written both movies and comic books, thinks there's "nothing wrong" with the film and that critics might just need to get over themselves.
