Every time I see that image of the energy-emitting guy levitating, I think, why is he in an elementary school cafeteria?

What better place to show up without pants?

I just realized that this thing is scheduled to come out in March of this year. I guess it'll be pushed back as they sort out the legal stuff, but the release has somehow managed to sneak up on me despite the incessant online hype.

I hope that's Frank Langella, and this movie is in continuity with Frost/Nixon.
Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

Man, trying to make super-slick CGI special effects look like footage from the early '60s must be a thankless task.

I would camp out for this movie if it looked entirely like this.

Also as an aside, I love how for unexplained reasons one of the "related videos" that popped up on the bottom at the end is a clip for Del tha Funkee Homosapien's "The Wacky World of Rapid Transit".

Yeah, I know. But despite the enthusiasm with which I'm participating in this viral marketing, I'm still pretty skeptical about this movie.

i'll probably wait for the director's cut, because from what I understand it'll be 3 hours and some minutes long.

i thought 300 was terrible, but i think that may be more on Frank Miller than Snyder. though his love for slow motion is pretty annoying

Well here's a shining endorsement from Kevin Smith:

http://hollywoodinsider.ew.com/2008/08/watchmen-update.html?iid=top25-20080823-Kevin+Smith+says+%27Watchmen%27+is+astounding+%28insert+%27but%27+here%29

Kevin Smith: "Remember that feeling of watching Sin City on the big screen and being blown away by what a faithful translation of the source material it was, in terms of both content and visuals?"

No.

A link to five clips from the movie.

Allow me to edit my earlier post:

Ew boy, this thing is gonna be really fucking TERRIBLE. I'll still go see it in IMAX, though.

Fixed!

Dammit. This looks really, really bad.  The advertisements before the clips were superior.

Something in the colors of the Watchmen poster that's up in the subway reminds me of the Ninja Turtles. There's been so much hype for this thing that by now I feel like I've already seen it and am over it.

Hold on now people! Didn't you know that this was directed by one of our greatest film artists?
