Please, Watch the New Watchmen Trailer. Do it for me.
Talk about making an entrance. Geez.
io9, which is a much better site than this little thing, did a deep and thorough dig through the new Watchmen trailer. I don’t have time for that. I have to watch CNN at least twenty hours a day or I feel lost. What I liked about the new Watchmen trailer is how “modified” the entire Watchmen concept is now. I want to make this pretty clear: I didn’t 100% love the Watchmen comic. It was all right, but it felt stupidly heavy-handed. Add to that some of the racist and sexist themes and I sort of got a bit of the classic “UGH” feeling. The movie? Of course it looks and feels different. Is that bad? Probably. But I don’t care. Things have to evolve. But I do feel bad for Alan Moore. Homeboy has to be pulling out all his hair right now. I mean, how can they have a Watchmen without a fat Owlman? It is blasphemy. Peep the trailer after the break and check out i09′s analysis here.
Oh it’s good, very good.
