That's why the costumes were altered to look more "modern." On the same line, the use of popular music is meant to play with the way it is used in other superhero or action movies.

That's my problem. Watchmen wasn't like other popular comic book/superhero/action stories and the soundtrack didn't showcase that. I haven't seen an exact track list, but in the end it reminded me of the Forrest Gump soundtrack which had all these classics on it. Just wouldn't have been my choice.
