WATCHMEN Director Zach Snyder Talks Shop with Matt Zaller

[SlasherIncorporated]

From what Zack was talking about with superheros that people know and what not,

I think that's EXACTLY why some people hated Watchmen. They went into it not knowing anything about it and expecting it to be a traditional supehero movie like Spider-Man or X-Men.

@SlasherIncorporated I went into it expecting it not be anything like normal supher. movies and hated. it was kinda like SHOCK VALUE SHOCK VALUE SHOCK VALUE I thought. But, yknow, Prove Me Wrong!

[SlasherIncorporated]

@100FingeredMonkey

Yeah some parts of the movie were shocking, but it wasn't just shock value to me nor was it just style and no substance. It was a story driven movie and I think that's a reason why people didn't like it. Either they couldn't understand the story or just missed the entire message behind the movie. Some people also don't care about story. They just want to see action, which Watchmen has, but isn't full of.

That's my opinion. To each his own though.

[nubpjuju]

wow a matt zaller interview which went somewhere ;)

[scrummyporridge]

the internet is viral!

[julianochoa1]

wtf he didnt actually do anything creatively he just copied the novel scene for scene

[HappiestTomato]

@julianochoa1 Which of itself is amazing, considering the source.

[SlasherIncorporated]

@julianochoa1

And that's why the movie did so well. It stayed true to the novel.

Zack actually sticks to the source material rather than adding in his own stuff and completely changing it.

Would you want to see a completely different movie? That was absolutely nothing like the novel? No, I don't think you would.

Why do you think so many video game movies do so poorly? Because the directors and or writers always change the material.

[dogface701]

yea wsell i thought the movie freakin ruled and that it was increadibly close to the original comic

if u didnt like it y the hell do you care enough to even comment on the interview?

[tocobell11]

the movie wasnt that good:(

[robotrw]

I AGREE. I went and saw it in the theatre with my brother and, there was way to much nudity and just plain stupid scenes.

[penguento]

wow havent you read the comic? it has the same amount

[darkness442003]

None traditional super heroes, arent these losers wearing costumes and saving the world? Sorry watchmen Super heroes still suck ass they all need to be on predators trophy case...Death to all super heroes incuding bat man

[goldensun38]

seeing how "traditional super hero's" arnt real....good luck with that man.

[darkness442003]

Your wish for luck is not needed. I ve been knowing their not real for a while. I just clown on the entire super Hereo "wanksta" persona. Dude i was ripping on the director what made you think i believed that?

[Roblonglol]

Predator blows.

[darkness442003]

Survey says "Wrong" Predator's books and early comics do not Blow. Just Hollywood and European Directors made predator look pussy. In "blood sands of time" And the first Alien Vs. Predator all humans died. I hate how hollywood fucks up everything

[ExplorerBillyy]

if you stop it right at 1:11 it looks like he's flipping off the camera.

[Raycheetah]

Huh. Like the director had anything to do with establishing the superhero elements in this story. He didn't write the story; he merely directed an adaptation of the original work. Pretty much a pointless interview. ='[.]'=

[GrayFox2k8]

[ItalianMafia36]
