The Watchmen, it's long be hailed as the most have graphic novel movie, and finally the world will get to experience the film in all its hyper-violent, super-sexy glory early next year. So, in honour of this film, we have the Official Watchmen Countdown thread!

What kind of items are to be included in this thread?
Well, all news, on-set pictures, screenshots, official posters, fan art, trailers, video previews, articles... pretty much anything! Everything and anything Watchmen is too be posted up right here, it will be the one stop thread!

Will our efforts in keeping this thread alive be rewarded?
They certainly will! Much like the thread for the Dark Knight, I will give everyone a medal when we reach a certain post count. This time around the post count will only be 500 and everyone will be rewarded with this super cool medal...

Please note that the medal will only be granted to those that post in the thread before 500 posts is reached.

If you have any other questions that you would like answered in regards to this thread, then please send me a PM, its what I'm here for.

Now post away and get ready to...

They are... doesn't mean we can't have a Watchmen thread

Interested read about Q&A session with Dave Gibbons, one of the Watchmen creators, on the new movie... timesonline.typepad.com/

I quote (and this gets me excited)...

Dave has seen a 2 hour, 45 minute rough assembly of the – in his words – “very sexy, very violent” movie which he expects will receive an 18 certificate from the British censor.

rofl nice. this movie use much blue-screen?

Not sure... but it will probably have a good amount. Zach Synder was hired right after 300 was released, so im guessing it would have a fair amount of it!
yeeeee, we need more movies that would look awesome on bd.
So, it's basically almost a 3-hour, R rated action movie full of violence and pure sexiness?? Awesome!! But seriously, I can't wait for this. The trailer was mad. I wonder what Alan Moore will think of it, he doesn't like any of the films they make of his work, not even V for Vendetta!
I was hoping we would do this for Quantum of Solace. But watchmen looks good. Better, almost.
And when does it come out in the states? Meh, I'm probably the only American here.
EDIT: official site: watchmenmovie.warnerbros.com/
It's coming out here in Aus on March 5th, and I think the US get it on the following day on the 6th. Hopefully it won't be delayed with all those lawsuits or whatever.

Schaweet!
But I bet the lawsuits will delay it.
I'm anticipating this less than Quantum of Solace, but more than Half-Blood prince.

At least you're not one of teh fans who hate Daniel Craig.
hyper-violent? super sexy? sounds like someone should actually read the novel and hop off the bandwagon...
Is there any need to call it the "official" Watchmen thread? Surely if someone else created another thread for it, you'd delete it or merge it with this one.

all i'm saying is. if people are going into the movie thinking "ahh this is gana be hyper violent and super sexy" then i rekon we'll be seeing watchmen a fair bit on that "movies u fell asleep in" thread..coz the writting in this novel and the themes expressed are not at the pre-school quality...of say, sin city or 300.

woa woa woa, dnt bring sin city into this.
So whens this coming out and is it got to do with a book? Like the pic. I'll look for some pictures of it now.

Edit: Here are some pictures i found when i typed in watchmen.


This looks like it's going to be pretty awesome.
So is this like people with super powers. Looks good even if its not.

Whats your problem? You seem to have a problem with everything I say... I was merely stating what the creator called the film after he saw it and yet you shot me down.
my bro says that the medal's bullet shot is on the wrong side of the smiley face btw
