Finished #Sandman on #Netflix last night. Great central performance by #TomSturridge . Probably the most faithful comics adaptation I''ve ever seen, with most episodes precisely matching a comics issue by @neilhimself and his various artists. I wonder what other comics series could support such a faithful issue-by-issue adaptation?

@RanaldClouston Watchmen (the film from 2009) was pretty close to the original.

@GeorgWeissenbacher I didn't see that, but my understanding was that they cut all the pirate stuff out, which is a surprisingly large part of the comics.

@RanaldClouston @GeorgWeissenbacher Check out the ultimate cut of the film, it adds that all back in.
