zach snyder may have been one of the worst choices for director of the Watchmen possible.

that might be an exaggeration, but man i do not like him.

That Dr Manhattan disintegration scene was pitch-perfect. And I am a geek for using such adescription.

 

Also, it's spelled Fuckin'.

 

Fucken is the last name of Christopher Walken's distant cousin.

 Thank you monkey.  I resisted making that correction.  I've been resisting for hours now.  Now I can quit twitching.

This movie is going to blow, I'm sorry. It just is. They're going to make it into the X-Men and we will all fuckin' cry.

visually it looks great and I'll still see it even though the film will probrably turn out mediocre at best.

the main drawing point for me is Jackie Earle Haley.

not just x-men. X-Men 3.

Zach Snyder somehow got through life without learning about subtlety or nuance.

okay that's enough hateorade out of me.

Well the big question here is if they stay true to the ending.

If they do, then it is a potential box office bomb. Average people don't want to see a movie end like that.

If they don't, all nerds everywhere will spit fire, and obviously we've proved that nerds are not insiginifcant at the box office or at generating good press.

well, to his credit, Leonidas didn't live at the end of 300, but yeah, unless  they do a kill bill type thing and break it into two movies of about 2 1/2 hours apiece, it's going to suck. But it will be damn pretty to look at so i'll see it regardless. Plus it'll probably have some kickass trailers before it too!

Anyone know the song from the trailer off hand?  Actually works pretty well with the clips.

and yes, it's the Smashing Pumpkins

Yeah, it is a Smashing Pumpkin's song called "The End is the Beginning is the End", it's the last track from the Batman and Robin soundtrack as well, funny enough. The Beginning is the End is the Beginning is also that song, just another version of it.

The trailer was beautiful btw. And as for staying true to the ending, it's looking like they are. It also seems that the lead designer of the Cloverfield monster is the one designing the (OMG SPOILERS) squid monster thing according to fan sites.

From what scripts people have been able to get from the movie, it does look like they jacked around with the story a bit, but we'll never know until it is out of course. They recently released some more pictures that look stunning as well, I'll see if I can find them.

There we go.

That's what I've been afraid of ever since they thought of making it a movie. How in the bleedin hell are they going to capture Dr's view of time? You can't have that experience through film, you just can't.

Also, thanks everyone for agreeing that X-Men sucked. It totally did and I hate people who won't admit it.

But this doesn't stop me from getting all excited. We all know we're going to see it, regardless of how suspicious we are of it. We're either going to be happy and sad at the same time that we were right and it's crap, or we're going to see it and be dissapointed/surprised that it wasn't crap.

Here's a great fan site for the movie. Currently has an interview with Matthew Goode about his role as Oxymandias and how he's putting his own "spin" to his past.../groan. We should be getting new clips/info from the San Diego Comic Con tomorrow as well.

 

Oh yeah, and here's a pin-up of Sally Jupiter they released from the movie.

I'm scared to even find out what kind of "spin" they're putting on Ozymandias.

not only is that one of the worst song titles in history used in one of the worst movies in history... not only that but someone else actually decided to rip it off?

and the people that came up with this bright idea are making the watchmen movie? I don't even want to see the trailer.

i feel a little better about this film after seeing zach snyder on comic-con saying how if the best he does is just make a three hour commercial for the book he'd be perfectly happy with that. That's really about the best that can be done with a movie of this.

Here's a bunch of comic con posters they released. No real news about the movie though, just the things we could already figure out. It's staying pretty true to the comic, but does have some original parts and has a hard R rating. The clip they showed had more images directly from the comic, Rorschach discovering Comedian's secret costume nook, more graphic Mr. Manhatten blowing up people, Silk Spectre unvieling the Owl Ship, Comedian getting slashed by the Vietnamese woman, etc.
