Final Watch - Movie References

Movie References

This book is notable for being the only book in the tetralogy so far to reference the Watch movies(see Night Watch):

  • In the movie, when Semyon, Tiger Cub and Bear go to help Anton with the vampires in their yellow truck, they nearly run over Zabulon. The latter throws the truck over him, then it hits the road and keeps going. In the book, Semyon says he saw the same thing in his dream, but doesn't remember who was with him or where he was going, only that they were in "some old van".
  • In the movie, Egor is Anton's son. In the book, when Anton meets Egor on a plane, Egor says he saw Anton as his father in a dream, and that later he joined the Day Watch just to spite him, which covers the overall plot of both movies. Anton then mentions dreams are sometimes visions from other dimensions.
  • In the movie, the Night Watch's cover is the City Light Company (in Russian "Gorsvet"). In the book, Gesar mentions during a staff meeting, an old cover the Night Watch once had which was in fact the City Light Company/Gorsvet.

Famous quotes containing the word movie:

    Each day a few more lies eat into the seed with which we are born, little institutional lies from the print of newspapers, the shock waves of television, and the sentimental cheats of the movie screen.
