Just curious to see what everyone thinks of Zack Snyder directing The Watchmen. I've been waiting for this to be made into a movie for years.
 
I'm not familiar with the story, but comics2film.com says they are pretty far from the comic. I think that means they are screwing up yet another comic film.
 
I don't see how that much story can be whittled down to a 2 hour film.

Not everything needs to be a movie. Hollywood needs to remember that.
 
The Watchmen is my favourite graphic novel, it's amazing. I kindof agree with Alan Moore (the author) though, who said: it was written as a comic, nothing else, to show off what that medium could do...

I like what Zack Snyder did with 300, but that was a much more straight forward and shorter comic, I can't really see how the watchmen could be done.....but then i'm not a succesful director lol, so i'll wait and see.
 
Humn... It could be done as a trilogy. Don't get me wrong i liked to comic, but I don't think it was mainstream (fanfare) enough to make enough mulaugh to warrant more than one film, if even one. Sad but true.
 
Wow, I had no idea this was coming. I loved Watchmen.

Gotta say, Rorschach looks pretty good...

Now if we can only get Pixar to tackle Cerebus...
 
Wow, they're quick. It's gone.

I'll summarize--

Billy Crudup does something...speed ramp to slo-mo--

Somebody else does something...speed ramp to slo-mo--

A girl walks sexily to camera...speed ramp to slo-mo--

etc...speed ramped to slo-mo--

The End...speed ramped to slo-mo.
