The way I understand it, Nite Owl was more an amalgam of Ted and Bruce, but I can see more Ted than Bruce there. And The Question is a really interesting case. Rorshach was loosely based on The Question, and then when the Justice League and JLU cartoons came out, The Question was altered to be more like Rorshach, complete with the 'ugly' face beneath the mask as a direct tribute.
Anyway, I read the graphic novel twice, and I thought the film was an absolutely brilliant adaptation. Obviously there were things they couldn't fit in, but what they had to skim over they did really well. The changed ending worked even better than what was in the graphic, IMO, and there's a whole plotline that's gonna be released as an animated short, so... there you have it. :)
