Sweeeet.

What makes me very envious of a select few here at my uni is that said group of individuals is blessed with having a class that HAS WATCHMEN ASSIGNED TO THEM AS A REQUIRED BOOK OF STUDY FOR THEIR COURSE.

asdfghjkl; SAME AT MY UNIVERSITY. Except not with Watchmen, but with Buffy.

and is it just me, or does the viral website look just like the "I Believe in Harvey Dent" website? Do all the Warner Bros. viral websites liik similar? :monster:

Re: Will 'Watchmen' Really be Delayed?

My friend who's a celeb down at home had Watchmen assigned to him as a thesis for his philosophy class. Something about Rorschach's and Oz's principles and how it affects the morality of human nature, along with super heroes. And Nite Owl's impotent issues as to why he needs the persona/costume.

I want professors like that someday... But I probably won't ever be that lucky.

I never looked at the "I Believe in Harvey Dent" site, so I'm not really sure.

Re: Will 'Watchmen' Really be Delayed?

Perhaps they wanna check if the Dark knight's charm can work on Watchmen. Quite frankly, they should stay old school and just post fake 70's/60's news about the heroes than use TDK's ideas.

Frankly Mumble, seeing the lingering marketing and after effects of the Dark Knight's 'charm' has made me so repulsed and bored stiff that I'm praying Watchmen doesn't go the same way.

Well it's not possible to manufacture VIRAL MARKETING as such as Cloverfield's.

I like this fanmade trailer. More relaxing and has style.

I mean, that trailer just got me so hyped up.

I'm hoping the soundtrack is as excellent as that trailer seems to say it is... :monster:

/sarcasm. Sorry. Failsauce right there.

I've never read the watchmen comics and haven't bothered to watch any trailers for the film.. Until now; been to the flicks today where they ran the trailer and liked what I saw, just glad the studios got themselves sorted out.

That song does match the trailer quite well. Awesome find!

Kunoichi, you really should check out Watchmen from a library or something. I know quite a few people that almost never read graphic novels and they love it.

Lol I might just do that if I end up liking the film, but I haven't got a clue where to start with US comics (I mainly read manga.) How long has it been running then?

I should probably mention that Watchmen has been flying off the shelves at work for like the last year.

It's not one that's still running. Just get this:

And you're ready to go. :monster:

I read somewhere that Alan Moore was surprised at how faithful the script is to the source material.

If that's true, isn't that almost like a glowing review, coming from him? :monster:
