Watchmen

So the Watchmen trailer is out, and it is very visual. The same director made 300. Like that movie or not, it reflected the source material, a brief action-oriented graphic novel. The Watchmen is a densely plotted, very long and thoughtful graphic novel. This comic is beloved by critics and fans, Time Magazine, in a fit of indie hipness, included it in its list of the 100 best novels of all time. This doesn't look like a long thoughtful movie, but it does look like an effects fest.

See what you think.
