I just got done reading "League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" actually all 3 books including the "Black Dossier" and I truly see how his work has been so butchered when put to film, but I will give this ONE film a chance only because of who the directer is- what he did with 300 was almost dead on, I will keep an open mind and hope that they will land this film closer to its original than all the others in the past.
the last guy is right. its not going to be a dark knight. but it is something more. I hope this movie is not just for fans. I think more people should be more informed about the watchmen because it is honestly the greatest thing that can be read. It compares to no other comic
I agree this will be another slaughter of another Alan Moore graphic novel even if it is 3 hrs long there must be at least 8 hrs of story in the novel so corners will be cut just leave it alone its a classic they killed V and L.O.E.G i wont be going to see this movie i will sit at home with a glass of wine and re read it in the true form instead i urge you to do the same
its less the fact that they arent accurate replicas, but more the fact that they are getting these graphic novels out there. it's like slumdog millionare. not the greatest movie that could be made about indian poverty, but hey it got people talking and stuck the issue into a mainstream movie. without these movies, maybe people interested in cult graphic novels would read them. but so many more would never even know such an awesome thing existed

Alan Moore, the author, says he will not watch it mainly because a movie is probably one of THE worst ways to show this novel. Moore said that he and Gibbons did things to the novel that could only work in a comic, for example issue 5. And after what the hollywood has done to movies like L.O.E.G and From
Hell (2 really good works by moore destroyed on film) I highly doubt Watchmen will be the movie everyone wants it to be, I actually think it will disgrace the novel.
The Purists will scream bloody murder...but having read and loved the Graphic Novel when it originally came out i'm going to trust in Snyder to do it justice....
Just the fact that they included the goddamn Nixon in the movie basically destroys everything watchmen had to say, because in the movie, every problem that america has will be nixon's fault. I mean come on, it's like the future dictatorship they introduced in V for Vendetta intstead of the fascist party.
umm... Nixon's in the comic and has a very small part. I find it difficult to see Zac Snyder make Nixon's role larger when theres so much of the book that should be included instead.
Forget it, I'm just dumb. I forgot that Nixon was already in the comic.
(I read it something like one year ago, I re-readed it now and I noticed that nixon was actually in there)
I am now positive with the movie btw. I changed my mind after seeing The Spirit. I mean, it can't be worse than the spirit, right? lol.
Just one thing I don't understeand. In the movie, there was actually a super hero team called the watchmen? "Watchmen, one of us died tonight", "Watchmen are over" etc. make me think.
Also, there's this scene where someone is taking a picture of The Comedian, Dr. Manhattan, Nite Owl, Silk Spectre, Rorschach and Ozymandias toghether, when they never actually team-up in the comic.
(Captain Metropolis tries to create the crimebusters with the same people, but fails, because the comedian fucks him off, lol)
Maybe they removed the old generation of heroes from the movie? Nah, there Hollis and Sally Jupiter are in there. I don't know what to think, really.
yes, but its different having the opinion that the movie is going to be hollywood crap & going to see it that being involved in it, as an espectator I have the right to say its shit and watch it anyways; if any of us were alan moore that would be hypocrite and even so the guy(moore)says he aint gonna see it because that matters it aint matters if any of us watches it or not. Paraphrasing a Nirvana song : "All the kids will eat it up, if its packaged properly".
what the hell's so great about this trailer? Looks like every other typical CGI-Matrix stylized superhero crap, why is everyone so gushed about this?? I don't get it, what reality is everyone being manipulated into experiencing??? Get me off this planet please
it is not supehero crap but something much more. Read the graphic novel because it is actually in TIME MAG top 100 novels. I just finish reading it recently and it is honestly the best thing ever.
the guy playing Rorschach hasnt done any acting in 13 years. was driving limos and delivering fucking pizzas. this trailer is badass, havnt been this excited since the dark knight. Which was kindof a letdown actually, hmmmm.
I've been reading a lot of comments and i cant believe people fall for this. They've turned Watchmen into plastic fast-food shit, Hollywood has taken a piece of art, chewed it and spit it out. They have drained all integrity from it.I mean what´s that crap about "watchmen is over" now youre gonna tell me in the movie they were a team called watchmen? that they were all a little happy justice league or wathever? that just goes against the nature of the novel.Call me purist but i dont dig it.
oh come on they're taking a fucking line-up photograph! silk specte is standing almost next to the comedian everybody is smiling and for goodness sakes roschach is letting himself being pictured! thats just corny man...remember a thing called the crime busters fiasco?
I can't recall seeing a trailer that was quite THIS freaking good. The last several seconds give me chills, like "leave my body" chills, and it doesn't diminish with subsequent viewings. I'm going to just say this is, in my very clear opinion, the single greatest trailer ever produced, period. I've gone from having a vague interest in seeing this, to having a deeply pronounced desire to see it.
if you love comics, then read the graphic novel coz is almost a guarantee that this will be dissapionting, specially if you consider how the other adaptation have been...
This movie looks ok, seems fun, but i bet you it wont be as the graphic novel...
I think the other trailers are so much better. This trailer is all over the place. Rorschach's voice is so annoying; it sounds like the faux-growl that Christian Bale did in Batman.
I think the movie is still worth seeing but if I only saw this trailer I probably would wait for the DVD.
Holy sh1t!! I just had a geekgasm. "The world will look up and scream: Save us. And I'll whisper: No" my favorite quote ever! and I've finally heard it from Rorschach himself. Friggin' awesome!
Watchmen (the ultimate cut) is a masterpiece. Far better than The Dark Knight. Cinema at its best.
