Kevin Carr looks at Watchmen.

Kevin and Neil watch Watchmen and give their opinions about the most anticipated movie of 2009. Joining them in the Magical Virtual Studio in the Sky is Cole Abaius, FSR’s resident Watchmen aficionado.

We have watched Watchmen. Is the early negativity spot on? Is the counter-hype correct? Will fans come to praise Snyder or bury him? Find our thoughts within.

We tow the line between spoiling everything (we don’t spoil anything) and educating (just some slight preparation) in order to give a decent look at what to expect from a film based on a book that you might not have read yet.

It’s the most anticipated movie of 2009, and it’s finally coming to theaters. Zack Snyder’s grim adaptation of the classic graphic novel may run 163 minutes, but it’s still a visual sight to behold. And why not behold it with Dr. Manhattan’s giant blue wang in your face and a drink in hand.

Continuing on with my attempt to keep this week’s Daily Diversion selection Watchmen related (which is much harder than I originally thought), I’ve rounded up a little clip from the DVD documentary The Mindscape of Alan Moore.

In 1986, “Watchmen” was published as a limited series comic book. Twenty-three years later, it’s finally being released as a film. Here’s a look at what it took to get here.

Warner Bros. has released their final round of photos for the upcoming costumed hero flick Watchmen, and instead of just picking out the 30 or so new images from the bunch we’ve decided to just give you everything — all 58 officially released photos in glorious high resolution.

It seems as if every day brings us some sort of obligatory Watchmen update. And why not, it is one of the most anticipate fanboy movies… ever. Today we bring you two new TV spots and news of a Portrait Book and a cameo by director Zack Snyder.

Before The Dark Knight came out we thought we had a lot of marketing materials. We thought the same prior to the release of Iron Man. But neither of those films seem to be holding a flame to the sheer amount of materials (mostly photos) that we’ve seen online for the upcoming comic adaptation Watchmen.

For those of you wondering about the ending to Zack Snyder’s Watchmen, check out the potentially spoilerific (?) scenes in the newly released (or leaked?) Japanese trailer.

Despite the fact that Fox announced this week that intends to delay the release of Watchmen, Warner Bros. continues to release new video. It’s enough to make any fanboy cry…

We knew it was coming. We’ve been waiting all night. And it is finally here — the second full-length Watchmen trailer.

Earlier in the week, some lucky fans got the chance to attend a test screening of Watchmen in Portland, and spilled the beans about how the movie is so far.

Our friends at First Showing and Collider did attend the event that took place last night at the Warner Bros. lot in West Hollywood, where director Zack Snyder was on hand to show off some footage from his highly anticipated comic adaptation Watchmen.

A great close up look at Watchmen’s Archimedes – the ship used in filming Zack Snyder’s forthcoming adaptation of Alan Moore’s masterpiece graphic novel.

Last year Zack Snyder vowed that he would return in 12 months with all kinds of cool stuff from Watchmen for Comic-Con ‘08. This year, we are ready to take him up on that offer.

Don’t know if you’ve heard but there’s a new Batman movie coming out. Hot on its tail, however, is Zack Snyder’s interpretation of the greatest graphic novel of all time, Watchmen.

A few months ago, Zack Snyder asked fans like you to participate in making fake commercials for the upcoming Watchmen movie. We now have some of the first entries for your viewing pleasure…

Our Crave Online comrades at Coming Soon/Superhero Hype have gotten their hands on the first video diary from the set of the upcoming graphic novel adaptation Watchmen. Since we are all friends here, we thought we would pass it along to you.
