Thanks for the updates, Vic. You’re doing a great job there at CC.

Now THIS film is LIVING PROOF that ALL the comic book characters COMIC BOOK COSTUMES can be done right and still look like the comics suits spot on (sans Ozymandias’ nipples heheh).

I want a Batman comic book suit, big budget, black and gray STAT! Just look at how friggin’ awesome Night Owl looks, his character is similar to Batman’s, and he looks pretty much exactly like how he looked in the Watchmen book. I hope they get Batman right someday.

Also……

….. ZACK SNYDER FOR LIVE ACTION JLA MOVIE!!!

I’m surprised no one asked about that at the con yet.

This movie will probably perform a lot like 300 … big first weekend with better word of mouth that most pictures in the genre so it will have less of a week to week drop-off and therfore have a somewhat higher box office total..

“The footage was shown again. I hate to use flowerly language but it was like looking at a richly detailed tapestry. I cannot WAIT for this thing to come out.”

You Sir are a veritable poet and a ingenious muse with a gift for literal translation of the medium..;)

C’mon dude you just had to say what you felt…

@Joe F

Thanks for the correction, bud. It’s difficult to try and accurately type what is being said AS it’s being said.

I’ve changed the post accordingly.

Correction: Snyder said he would *like* to see Miller’s DKR made; he didn’t say he wanted to make it.

The clip we saw was much more graphic than what’s shown in the trailer. Also, the scene where Billy Crudup is turned into Dr. Manhattan and he vaporizes actually showed him disintegrating in much more detail as his skin, then organs explode away from his body finally leaving his skeleton.

The trailer with TDK looked Epic !!!

Watching the Blue guy vaporise VC was unexpectedly cool.

This could be a HUGE film.

goodstuff, I truely hope the film doesn’t add or take away stuff from the graphic novel. It’s already perfect it just needs to be animated.

So far everything sounds good and I truely hope this movie destroys the box office next year
