COMIC CON 2008: Watchmen question, how dark is the film?

[KariKiljunen]

dark to the point of nihilism?

he was probably waiting all week to get that gem off his chest haha

why would you need to balance that out and not have it one sided? i'm glad that dude wasn't the director!

[Straq]

I know what you mean lol, just wanted to get up there for the sake of trying to impress people instead of asking a legit question.

[rhindeen]

wow snyder is impressively inarticulate

[mtz313]

ya half way through i was thinking, what the fuck is he talking about?

[samh09]

Yes, I agree.

[apictureoffunction]

yeah, it's a good thing he can still direct, he must work with incredibly perceptive people.

[Nola213]

The Book is dark? What frigging book was Sneids reading? The story may be dark, but the Book color wise is not dark.He needs to brighten up these costumes, and make them not futureistic,the costumes were handmade with whatever was available.

I see A Dark Nite Owl 2(with a physic).*puke*

Dreidberg is supposed to be past middle aged and overweight.Veidt is supposed to wear such bright gold and purple, not this dark knight Batman X-men crap.GJ ruining the best comic book story ever created.

[pwntermute]

Patrick Wilson gained 20 pounds for the role of Dan, and all the costume changes are very obviously intentionally mocking the costumes of super heroes in recent movies.

[plasticine86]

I feel the same way.

[KariKiljunen]

he's not talking about colours.......

[dontgetangrybut]

no obviously he was talking about colours. it's not like it's *not* just a series of pretty pictures! God...

[dontgetangrybut]

oh dear.

[wowrules222]

he gives me a headache when he speaks

[dlweiss]

That's why he makes movies instead of voice-overs.

[brabon]

did mahalo have the only rights to vid?

[mrnosaj]

I love Zack. He's a terrible speaker, but I bet he's great to hang out with. Just one of the dudes with a taste in the good stuff.

[brabon]

its funny...zack is 41, looks 29 and sounds 14

and he needs to put his hot wife on his next panel

and i wanna know what his ex looks like

[cdowg187]

Keep in mind he's also pretty nervous. I mean Watchmen is one of the greatest comics ever, so that's a pretty daunting task to do for a movie. You wanna please the original fans of the graphic novel but also not alienate the rest of the movie going audience. I didn't know he was 41 though. lol I thought he was in his early 30s.

[brabon]

zack was born in 67 and i know he has a portrait of himself sitting in the attic that ages instead of him...he isnt nervous, that is his persona...he is the exact same way in every interview...he has cultivated that aw shucks thing for so long, he cant turn it off...and he is an og...dude has a full size han solo sealed in carbonite statue sitting in his basement

[MadScout]

Really?! Damn...

[xylonisawesome]

Ya.
