Pop Critics: Watchmen Trailer Makes Early Debut

  • Triseult · 1 year ago
    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.

    I'm sure my wife will love it. She loves Corrigan and the Pumpkins.
  • daddyjason · 1 year ago
    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.

    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.

    its a lonnngggggg read man... long...slow in places so make sure you have a nice seat cushion..
  • daddyjason · 1 year ago
    You just talked me out of it.
  • Mike Olbinski · 1 year ago
    That didn't help :)
  • Mike Olbinski · 1 year ago
    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?
  • daddyjason · 1 year ago
    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 :)
