I said no for the reason stated before.
No matter how faithul the movie will be it can never capture the magic of the comic.
for example, I liked the V for Vendetta movie when I first saw it.
Then I read the book, and I loved that too.
Now I can't stand the movie. BUT, I least I managed to enjoy both.
I know how you feel, I read V about 5 years before the movie and when I saw that travesty I felt really bad, not because they reamed that story (hey the book is still there) but because everyone who I talked to loved it, loved V, (you make one egg for someone and suddenly you're friendly) and worst of all thought they had received an equivalent experience. The reason I chose yes is because whenever I would like to discuss V,and since the movie came out I've gotten a lot of (false) opportunities, I find that people have a hard time separating the two and end up thinking "this guys a fanboy who can't get over things, I got, albeit in a shortened way, the book this guy is talking about he's just mad they didn't include minor things from the book."
Oh god I just had the most horrible vision: Me talking with a group about the end when someone says "that's not what happens dr. Manhattan blows up a half dozen cities makes a galactic threat meant to tie in to the title, and nite-owl kills Veidt" (shudder)
