So I went and saw The Dark Knight last night at IMAX.
Amazing, I highly recommend seeing it in IMAX.
Anyway…
I got to see the trailer for this movie and I almost fell out of my seat.
Has anyone else read this graphic novel?
Does anyone else think its the greatest ever written?
Anyway, Here is the trailer if you haven’t seen it:

Cannot wait for this.
Billy Crudup as Jon Osterman / Dr. Manhattan is great casting.
I dunno. That’s what people said about 300 and I thought that was one of the worst, dullest, most homoerotic movies I’ve ever seen. Maybe the whole comic book genre just doesn’t do it for me. I did like Sin City though, so maybe I’ll give this a shot.
I’m pretty pumped about it. I’ve never actually read the graphic novel but I definitely know of it. The preview looks badass and I like how there’s not really any BIG name actors. I’m sure I’ll go see it.
looks pretty good, i’ll see it
For one, wasn’t there WAAAAAAY too many frickin previews during Batman? God, it was horrible. Make it stop.
And I don’t know about Watchmen…I never read the comic and the commercial seemed a lot more about the “artsy” side without having much substance. 300 was okay in the neat and pretty images but plot-wise it was a total dud. At the same time I loved Sin City. So it’s more like Sin City, I may like it. We’ll see…it took me a year and a half to get around to seeing 300 a month ago.
Stevo
I read it… it is awesome… the movie shall be awesome, so shall it be written so shall it be done.
I love the fact that there are no rediculously huge names in this movie, because that is what super hero movies do. they have really weak stories (excluding newest batman) so they load up with A list celebrities and and explosions. Great casting.
also this is the only comic book to make the list of the top 100 english written books of the past 75 years… so you know that it is good.
