The Japanese trailer for Watchmen has lots of new footage, and once again, it feels like I'm watching Dave Gibbon's panels faithfully come to life. Having reread both the graphic novel and Dave Gibbon's new retrospective over the holiday, I am SO jonesing for this movie, it's hard to contain myself.
If the Fox lawsuit screws this up, YBNBY will officially boycott promoting any Fox properties for the rest of 2009, unless it's to ridicule them (which may not be hard).

Looks like the did get rid of the alien in place of a nuclear explosion.
Well, if you want to be specific, it wasn't really an alien, it was a home-grown psychic cephalopod designed to look like an alien.
But yes, they did.
...which is disappointing, not having seen the final result, but the whole point was for the world to band together against this new threat from beyond. Who is the nuke supposed to suggest is responsible?
Yes, Snyder admitted that the movie is squidless some months ago. That really fucks it up... BUT it still has just about everything else nailed down and looks quite impressive.
From what I hear, the blue explosion is caused by Dr Manhattan having a vindaloo curry the night before and letting one rip in midtown. That's way more scary a threat to band together against than an octopus.
i'm reading this book right now, bout halfwaysa done, reaaaally good, i love it, cant wait to see it in theaters.
