SDCC 08: Patrick Wilson Watchmen Video Interview

[7cupcakes7]

i liked his version of nite owl and love the movie.

[McFlanker]

Watchmen was suprisingly good...gotta love the Comedian :)

[o94ght]

wats so cool about a guy dressed as an owl

[Mycatjewel]

He was perfect in this movie. It made me love him to pieces!

[KyuubiKris]

his biggest battle was against impotense

[kiswang]

MYGOD I ALWAYS ADORE HIM SINCE THE PASSENGERS, LOL and his name is patrick wilson? mygod this is killing me

I THOUGHT HIS NAME WAS MICHAEL

[BlazingSoulz]

...besides the name being michael part...... (how'd u get that?)

I TOTALLY AGREE WITH U...honestly in the movie, Wilson stricked me as a mama's boy....40 years old virgin....NO OFFENSE, (please dun b mad)...but honestly he looked so bad in the movie!!! :O....then after the movie when i researched more about him, i thought THIS WAS HIM?????? DANG HES SO HOT!!!! <3....but anyways....i didn't like nite owl :(...i LOVE RORCHACH and Dr. Manhattan<3<3<3 and adrian :D...sigh i cant wait for the DVD<3

[selty]

It's funny, I didn't really know Patrick Wilson before Watchmen but immediately could tell he was a theatre actor as he used his diaphragm (where your booming voice comes from) - unlike most film actors.

[arachnoman2099]

He graduated from Carnegie Mellon Musical Theatre BFA Program. (I got rejected. Meh.)

[selty]

Oh! That is quite an achievement. I commend him.

[luanswan2002]

He was the best actor in Watchmen!!!

[amberKaharuva]

Why did they make this hottie look all old and gross in the movie?

[orlyvredad]

because the character was SUPPOSED to be physically unspectacular?

[yoda9999]

he looked like Chevy Chase in the movie

[LeadTester]

Too bad the movie turned out to be a huge piece of shit.

[darthlozer2]

i agree the onley good scene is the jail scene it was a big disapointment!

[Pwells1]

Costner could have done it. No one else really though, besides Wilson.

[HilliardM15]

he's perfect for our favorite shy awkward hero in watchmen, Nite Owl

[Transformers217]

I agree. And people need to check out Wilson's other performances in "Little Children", and "Angels in America." :)

[cdowg187]

He was great in Hard Candy. It's funny in Little Children he thinks with his dick a lot, in Hard Candy he has a "castration" scene. And in Watchmen he has Impotency. lol

[amdnovello]

impotence? maybe the first try he's too embarassed but give him the second chance and he'll make you change your mind

[evelau]

In the novel, the character says himself that he is impotent.

[amdnovello]

yeah but i didn't know the novel. in the movie the 2nd time he's rock hard!

lol

[ToDenyASound]

god! i'm in love with this boy! shit!

[pudekcufsisiht]

Watch Hard Candy and Little Children.

[KorokoMaoriBoy]

Wow this dude seems like the perfect choice to play Dan Dreiberg. He completely understands what to do and yeah, glad its him.

[crbb0]

so they're actually calling them the watchmen in the movie instead of crimebusters?

i kind of like that actually.

[Transformers217]

It's actually pretty stupid. And the panel, the interviewer said "crimebusters." Which implies that they are still going to be called the Crimebusters.

But if will be changed to "Watchmen", then that's just stupid. It might not hurt the film, but it takes away some great subtext that was totally evident in the GN.

[JBHutto]

Fuck you, how's that for subtext.

[bwaydiva10]

hes brilliant...hes an amazing person...and you would not understand how good of an actor he rele is until u work with him...hes simply brilliant

[thecomedian217]

tratoritorro

[prophetjen]

Please tell me that there are more men out there like him. I am sending it out there!

[nfolkving]

God I love this man!!!

Patrick - I love you.

(I don't think he will read this though)

Hehe... but whatever. I love him anyway.

[Bananaraptor]

I agree, he IS -damn- awesome!! I love how he understands how the fans feel about this becoming a movie!

That gives me utter faith in him. He totally feels Dan too. So perfect.

[deChagnysAsian]

*giggles*

Patrick- I love you.

(Well, if he reads this, I'm just as much at fault.)

[wolfgar45]

is he the one who played the victim guy in that movie hard candy?

[deChagnysAsian]

*nods* He played Jeff Kohlver in Hard Candy.

[tessa0104]

he's such an underrated actor!! love him1!

[aladypotter]

Thank you
