The Watchmen Trailer is Awesome

If you haven't seen the above trailer for Watchmen yet, you are missing out. It officially premiered this morning with the first showings of Dark Knight, and I have to admit, I was pretty blown away. The graphic novel is a classic (it won a Hugo award and made it onto time magazine's top 100 20th century English novels), but Hollywood has a way of eating good stories like these, digesting them with marketing drones, and pinching little loafs of cinematic dogshit. Since the only thing floating around out there were a few campy stills, I was pretty sure that this story was done for. I was wrong. After reading this article and watching the trailer, I cam to the conclusion that this movie may be as totally awesome as the novel.
