Hint: I’m lazy at jokes. But this looks great.

I know Alan Moore is really down on movie adaptations of his work, and granted 300 kicked me backwards into a pit of derisive laughter, but isn’t it time the world finally had a superhero movie it could get excited about? Get it? Because of Batman? HBO stand up comedy special, please.

Watch the trailer in HD here.

WATCHMEN: In Retrospect
Zack Snyder is the Anti-Christ. So is the rest of Hollywood. At least that’s the impression one gets from comments made by Watchmen author Alan Moore following some pretty disappointing experiences dealing with the Hollywood system. Ironically ...
'Watchmen' prequels to be published
"After 25 years, the Watchmen are classic characters whose time has come for new stories to be told." Director Zack Snyder adapted the graphic novel for the big screen in 2009.

    Holy FAIL. Good Job finding a working video(not a good job)

  3. 300 was a Frank Miller adaptation. V for Vendetta was Alan Moore – and one of the worst movies ever. Watchmen will probably suck just as badly – it was a pretty lame graphic novel.

      Waitasec – I found ‘im. The penultimate “everything generally held as good that you like sucks” person. Give me a second & I’ll start a slow clap for you before you go back to watching “Strange Wilderness”.

    • THE GRAPHIC NOVEL KICKED BUTTOCKS! you’re bitter.
      Also, i saw the video before it went down, it was pretty mediocre. I heard that they are playing a watchmen trailer before the dark knight, so….go see batman!

    • You’re my faaaaaavorte. Not. (Has Borat been gone too long for NOT jokes to be passé?

    • I’m pretty sure he mentioned 300 because it’s the same director as Watchmen, not because he thought it was an Alan Moore book.

    The graphic novel is the fucking shit. I want to know what your idea of ‘good’ graphic novels are before I can snort derisively at you – and you’d better not be saying Sin City or Sandman or some shit like that. This movie looks like it’s going to make me cry with shame – seriously, they couldn’t get a director better than zack snyder to do this? or any actors that are remotely recognizable? dr manhattan looks cheesy as hell. and why the fuck does rorschach talk like Gob Bluth?

  5. You and me both, Gabe. CANT. FUCKING. WAIT. But…i’m gonna have to cuz its not coming out until FUCKING FOREVER.

    …and a half.
