Okay, so I went to see that little movie based on some four-color funny book that just hit theaters, “Watchmen,”...
The deconstructionist middle finger of Alan Moore’s “Watchmen” showed an industry built around taking masked heroes seriously just how silly...
So "Watchmen" is not a perfect film. But it is, without a doubt, a damn good one.
Does it hold a candle to the original, or is this just a case of fearful symmetry?
When the film adaptation of the graphic novel sensation “Watchmen” was first announced, the main concern was whether director Zack...

Three exclusive Watchmen scenes.
The 18 minutes of "Watchmen" footage reaffirmed what I already anticipated - "Watchmen" is brilliant. Dave Gibbons, co-creator and illustrator of the "Watchmen" graphic novel, discussed with the audience how director Zack Snyder incorporated a combination of scenes both in and outside of the comic book to create a better visual picture for all audiences to appreciate.

Yahoo has posted the newest trailer for Zack Snyder's "Watchmen," set to release March 6, 2009.
This newest "Watchmen" trailer was aired during the Spike TV Scream Awards.
Director Zack Snyder tried to stay as true to the original story as a two-and-a-half-hour movie can to a 416 page novel.
"Making a movie about the war on terror and [modern politics] seemed really wrong in a lot of ways to me," said Snyder. "It's cooler if people go, 'Oh hey, this makes me think,' instead of me telling people what to think."
Their mission is to watch over humanity…but who is watching the watchmen?
