Watchmen is a comic book film that begins in a world where masked crusaders have…

When director Zack Snyder originally professed his desire to stay as true to the Watchmen graphic novel as possible, in some interviews he also extended it to the music choices as well. The much lauded source material uses a lot…

Not quite three years ago, director Zack Snyder turned a beloved comic book miniseries, Frank Miller's 300, into a hyper-stylized bloodbath of a movie that, in many ways, transformed the way motion pictures will be made. His…

If you're attracted to women, you've no doubt stared slack-jawed at the black-and-yellow latex-clad images of Malin Akerman as Silk Spectre II in Watchmen. Though she spends much of the movie as her civilian identity, Laurie…

After twenty years of false starts, the most ambitious graphic novel ever created is finally just six months from the cineplex. Director Zack Snyder has finished shooting, and the trailer made a splash at Comic-Con, where even the…

Warner Brothers obviously has big plans for Watchmen, their adaptation of the classic '80s graphic novel. They debuted the trailer in the prime-time slot before The Dark Knight, which means that something like 29 million people…

"I don't know if I made a good film, but I know I made the book." This is one of my all-time favorite quotes from a filmmaker. It comes from Terry Gilliam during an interview with Charlie Rose about Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.…

Who's listening for Watchmen? We are. I've made no secret of the fact that I'm extraordinarily worried about Watchmen, the upcoming comic book adaptation from the director of Dawn of the Dead and 300, Zack Snyder. While possessing…

If you're a Watchmen fan, then you already know who Dr. Manhattan is. If not, he's the buff-looking blue dude you've seen on billboards and magazine covers everywhere you turn these days. Underneath all that CGI glow is actor Bill…

As we've been left with nothing to do for March (thanks Hollywood!), I figured I'd hazard a guess on Watchmen's box office chances.

The superhero film Watchmen will be watched by audiences after all -- and on time.

Warner Bros. and 20th Century Fox settled their nearly yearlong dispute over the movie on Thursday, the studios announced in a joint statement.…

Dearest 20th Century Fox,

The reason we're writing is that we read some concerning news over the weekend. And then…

The new Watchmen trailer is yet another double-barrel of awesomeness. More and more it appears director Zack Snyder has nailed it. Before I go into the obligatory geekasm as to how excited I am to see Snyder bring graphic…

Who are the Watchmen, we hear some of you say? It’s a fair question because most of us grew up around more prominent superhero characters, like Superman, Batman and Spider-Man. As the animated director, Zack Snyder, remarks: “Even…

After almost 25 years, the "unadaptable" comic masterpiece hit the screen in March riding an avalanche of hype. Now Zack Snyder's two-disc Director's Cut comes to DVD with more of what made this Watchmen his -- which, depending on…
