Oh my god... first Watchmen teaser out! (1 Viewer)

[Lion]

I can't believe that a trailer is finally out! now this is a movie I have been waiting for a long, long time. It's based on the graphic novel of the same name. And seriously, If you've never read the novel before, you're missing out on not only the greatest graphic novel ever, but one of the greatest and most jaw dropping stories ever told.

check out the trailer:

[da_ledgeaun]

[swag]

Excuse me... for a minute there I thought you said "graphic novel" and "greatest ... stories ever told" in the same paragraph.

 

[Lion]

....and your point is?

 

[swag]

That's like saying "finger painting" and "mankind's greatest works of art" in the same paragraph.

 

[Lion]

Have you read it?

 

[GordoDeCentral]

Have you read it?

dont ridicule yourself further

 

[Lion]

No one's talking to you, foozool.

 

[Enron]

It's another Miller GN right?

 

[Lion]

No, It's written by Alan Moore.

 

[Enron]

Is it the one with Hartnet in it or am I thinking of something totally different?

 

[Enron]

Never mind. I was thinking of something totally different.

Never heard of it. And I can't watch the trailer since I don't have quicktime installed.

That's like saying "finger painting" and "mankind's greatest works of art" in the same paragraph.

hey man, give it a read if you have any interest in story-telling or for that matter films and film-making.

it is quite simply a modern legend, a fable which transcends the comic book medium and elevated the entire genre the same way 2001 showed what could be done on celluloid.

for the fans of watchmen, what do you think of:

ozymandius, actor and costume, the comedian without eyepiece and teh nite-owl turning into some sort of matrix-esque badass... ?


here's a neat link too which compares screenshots with the comic panels:

Yeah, Night owl should be a bit more overweight. The Comedian does wear the eye piece in some scenes. There were earlier pics out that showed him wearing it.

Ozymandius looks meh. Of course this is just based on looks, and not acting. His constume is ugly, and he's a bit skinny. I always imagined Ozymandius to be a big guy. The acting may change my mind though.

I'm just curious how they are going to put so much content in one movie.
