Lets hope this turns out OK

They're making Watchmen???

That's got to be my favourite graphic novel of all time. Please please PLEASE I hope they make sure that those responsible for making it are fans of the novel itself, or it could turn out to be a disaster.

Its been in various stages of production since the 80's...at one point Robin Williams was cast as Rorschach:eek:

So far on this production however, the only detail that I know of is that Zack Snyder is currently attached to direct. As far as Im aware they havent released any other details.

Just done a bit of reading up on this Watchmen project, and it sounds quite exciting. I'll definitely have to keep a close eye on this one.

Apparently a bit rests on the success of 300 - re casting and budget. So we should all go and see 300 if only to do our bit for Watchmen - but hey, it looks fantastic anyway.

Very cool. :cool:

My boyfriend and I saw the trailor for this when we went to see Pan's Labyrinth and were hooked. We're seeing it opening day unless I have to get those horrid drops in my eyes at my eye appointment and can't see. That better not happen though or I'll kill for sure.

I can not wait for this movie

I've always been a HUGE fan of the darker side of comic books (Sin City, 300, Preacher, etc...) so once Spiderman & X-Men did huge numbers at the box office, I started crossing my fingers that eventually some of my faves would find their way to the big screen as well. Sin City was obviously huge & in my opinion THE most perfect comic adaptation we've seen thus far. 300 looks like it could rival that. Frank Miller is the man. I hear they're gearing up for Sin City 2 as well which will cover everything they skipped in the first film. I can't wait!

And Preacher... Don't even get me started on Preacher. This is far and away THE BEST comic series I've ever read, but it's way too deep & complicated for a 2 hour movie, so I was delighted to hear they are gonna be doing this one the way they oughtta as well... As an HBO series. Perfect. They can make it as graphic as the comic books and each episode will equate to one issue of the story. That is pretty much the best case scenario for me as to how they could do this because initially I had heard it was heading to the big screen & that gave me pause. Now I'm fuckin' stoked.
