In discussion with another uber-geek, i heard this was going to be awful because it's being done by some guy who'd wrecked some other thing.. 300 maybe? Then again, this uber-geek disagreed with me on the first season of Heroes, so i was just going to see what you had to say about it. Apparently it's "hab... hamma... hccccht... habbbaminna"
i'm sure it will have its flaws... and it will in no way be perfect... but from what i've seen so far all of the shots are taken directly from the panels of the comics and the look and tone of the movie so far look incredible.
I may be more excited for this than the next Harry Potter movie (though we'll be able to tell by the guttural noises i make when those trailers start surfacing).
While I've never read Watchmen (gasp! - and yes, i really really want to now and know the whole plot and synopsis already), this movie looks like it will be pretty fucking awesome. Although, I thought that about 300 and it turned out to be, well, 300.
I'd also like to say, that doing this movie any earlier than now would have rendered it a CGI nightmare, which the trailers so far don't seem to indicate.
This may end up being the case of "see the movie before reading the comic" for me. But I do worry that, with the high regard in which Watchmen is held, many fans will be disappointed with the end product.
