New Watchmen Character Art Revealed
Six glorious new posters unveiled

New Watchmen Character Art Revealed
Here in full posterly gorgeosity are no less than six new posters from Watchmen, featuring the film's primary characters in all their splendour. We don't think it's too gushing to say they look absolutely stunning and should be lapped up by everyone who's counting down the days to the film's release in March.

For the handful of you who have been living under a graphic-novel-free rock for the past two decades or so, the Watchmen protagonists include: The Comedian (Jeffrey Dean Morgan); Dr. Manhattan (Billy Crudup), Ozymandias (Matthew Goode); Rorschach (Jackie Earle Haley); Silk Spectre II (Malin Akerman) and Nite Owl II (Patrick Wilson).


The excitement is killing us now - we want to watch the Watchmen! Zack Snyder's long awaited adaptation opens simultaneously in normal cinemas and IMAX on March 6.

RE: Film Rating?
Along with Zack, Producer Debi Snyder has consistently stated that it can only be an R rated movie because of the content (graphic violence, nudity, etc.) and according to lick)rating is as good as official... ... Read More

Film Rating?
Has it been confirmed anywhere if this will have an 18/R rating? It could probably get away with a 15 (not ideal) but if it has anything below I will be majorly pissed off. ... Read More

WATCH THIS FILM FLY!
Can't wait for March to come around! I'll probably be disappointed in the end but who cares! Never thought I've ever see a Watchmen film hit the screen. ...."Ozymandias looks too skinny, his neck is the wrong shape, blah di blah di blah...." Nit pickers be damned. I don't think there's ever been a comic book movie made that's EXACTLY like the comic. If anyone has issues on the day this movie comes out - might I suggest you all stay at home and watch your copies of Batman and Robin i... Read More

RE:
L: Dr Quinzel As ever, Rorschach and the Comedian are stealing it. Unfortunately Ozymandias still looks like a refugee from a mid-90's day-glo embarrassment. But, to be fair, he looked ridiculous in the comic too, and if the people want a faithful adaptation... hat you have to remember is that Ozy is a walking advertisement.  He is a retired superhero (two years before it became law) who dresses the way he does because he is the live-action version of his own cartoon and toy empire... Read More
