Linnea: Yes, you do! XD Especially if you want to finish it before Saturday. I've only seen the movie once, so I'm sure I missed layers there, but I know it didn't heavily involve the pirate comic subplot or the newsstand or anything... Did they include the perfume imagery at all? I can't remember...

Space Invaders! Classic game. :)

Linnea: Choices, choices... XD The perfume thing is more of a background detail. Not really part of the plot, but something to watch for. Especially when Laurie visits Jon on Mars. Or rather, you can't miss it there. But once you see it there, you won't miss it elsewhere, either.

Um, you'll know what I mean when you get to it.

It's further along in the story, but you'll get there. Just... When you're reading, pay attention to billboards, graffiti, that sort of thing.

Oh, good! Yeah, they are cool tidbits! And again, the perfume thing. I know it sounds weird, but it's not insignificant. (I really have to watch the film again, see if it's there.)

I can't remember. Was the characters' team actually called Watchmen in the film? They're the Crimebusters in the book. And the Minutemen before them.

XD Huh. Well, anyway, I bet you'll be sufficiently prepared to be geeky at the party, Linn. However much you get through.

That is good, Saber! I'm awful at Space Invaders. Need to practice that.

Linnea: Yes! I know you can do it. Finish it so at the very least you can argue about how they changed the ending in the film. That sort of thing makes for good geek fodder...
