Which is why now a ton of people are upset that it was used in this trailer. I personally thought it (the song) rocked for this (Watchmen) trailer, so who cares! Effin' nerds. Panda and Bozz -

He's just not that good a director. The slow-motion throughout the trailer makes me very nervous...

The trailer looks awesome btw Bozz,

Actually it's pretty funny - the first thing in the trailer is the DC Comics logo and then it cuts to a guy with electricity sparking on his forearm. My mind starting racing wondering "What the heck DC superhero is THIS?!" A second later I saw it was Watchmen - and was STILL excited as hell! Vic @KEL Now THERE’S an idea, bro!

I'm glad you liked it, Vic. I'm just trying to imagine how awesome this would be if it were a Zack Snyder directed JLA film instead. It would've been awesome to have a trailer for a good JLA film premere with TDK. :D Still going to read this, I can’t wait for the trailer. I’m glad you liked it, Vic.

You're going to freak when you see the trailer. I would recommend avoiding the crappy Youtube version that will no doubt surface in the next day or two and wait for a high quality version. As soon as one becomes available I'll post it here at Screen Rant. :-) Vic Yeah, you have no idea. You’re going to freak when you see the trailer.

I thought the graphic novel I read of the Watchmen was THE MOST amazing and riveting story of “superheros” that I have ever read..The immediate tone it starts out with along with the tension produced throughout the series. From placing heroes that were experiencing the human condition to the anti-veneration of those same heroes to it’s social commentary on the Vietnam War and the Civil rights movement, apocalyptic themes and conspiracy theory and human morality..and I still haven’t come close to hitting all the themes this story touched on.. I mean this HAD IT ALL!! If you haven’t read it please go get a copy and read it!! It was voted one of the 100 best works of fiction of the 20th century for cripes sake!!It is also relevant to events in the world today with its fatalism themes, Keen Act (RFID anyone?) and theme of megalomania…You won’t be disappointed…A Definitive Masterpiece!!! Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?

Honestly, I'm still trying to wrap my head around it. I'll be seeing it again tomorrow night. It's an Oscar-level crime drama and not like any Batman or any other superhero movie you've seen. VERY dark and "grown up," not suitable for kids under 10 or so (nor would they enjoy it much). Vic LOL, sorry about that. Honestly, I’m still trying to wrap my head around it.
