Watchmen Trailer Makes Early Debut

Started by Mike Olbinski · 11 months ago

Mike told us yesterday that the Watchmen trailer would be premiering with the IMAX version of The Dark Knight and he was absolutely right when he said it.  Not long after, however, the trailer was leaked onto the internet and now all of us can enjoy it equally.

    I am SO!!!!! excited about this. I was one of the people naysaying this endeavor; I felt there was no way Watchmen could be done on the big screen with a modicum of respect for the source material.

    Then this trailer comes out... My god.

    I think I watched it 15 times already.

    Better than I expected, only thing I didn't like was Billy Corrigan, and I usually like the Smashing Pumpkins.

    Jason, you ought to take some time and read it before it comes out...I think
    it would be beneficial and also make the trailer even more awesome.

    Well, as you know, I'm not a huge fan of graphic novels in general. However, this might be one that would be worth reading.

    So when you say graphic novels, do you mean you don't really get into comic books in general? It's just not your thing?

    Yeah, you know, as a kid it was always movies for me. I never read comic books for some reason. I always loved reading so I read actual books. It's nothing against comic books, I just never got in to it. I'm absolutely CERTAIN there's some brilliant stuff out there, but I never have taken the time to try to get in to anything.

    I'll just add one more time how awesome this trailer was. It gave NOTHING away, everyone looked like they should have, the sets, the vehicles, etc...all of it just FELT like the graphic novel.

    I liked the music playing in the background too, but I did hear someone in the theater say it sucked, so must not appeal to everyone :)

    Yup, loved it. Billy Corgan was great in my opinion. =D I've never heard of the Watchmen, except here on PopCritics, but this trailer looks FANTASTIC!!! This is definitely what a comic book should look like.
