Episode 19: Watchmen

Watchmen
Come one come all to our longest commentary yet: the Zack Snyder film Watchmen. Maybe we should say the Alan Moore film, since Snyder pretty much lifted the images from the pages of the graphic novel. We would say that, but Moore would undoubtedly get really mad at us since he didn't want his name anywhere near this movie. Joining me for this very full commentary are stalwarts Jen and Zo, plus Joe Evans plays Watchmen convert. Also there's Mark, a complete Watchmen virgin. Showing up late (someone always does) is Maxim.

Watchmen ComedianHere of course is the image of the Comedian falling out the window at the beginning of the movie. If somehow you haven't seen this image in the past year -- here it is.

Watchmen SilhouetteJust about my favorite image in the movie. The lady who hardly gets any screen time at all is named Silhouette.

Watchmen opening creditsDon't you just love these brilliant, cheery opening credits?

WatchmenPublic service: screengrabbing these magazines so that you have time to look at them beyond the 1.2 seconds of screentime they get.

Watchmen Silk SpectreSilk Spectre: The Velocitang.

Watchmen electricityCapturing screen images from this movie was the funnest ever. So much imagery not seen everywhere already.

Watchmen ComedianJeffrey Dean Morgan as the Comedian. Lookin' quite studly.

Watchmen Janey SlaterLaura Mennell as Janey Slater. She wins the award for hottest chick in the movie.

Watchmen Rorschach VeidtIf you look very carefully on Rorschach's aerosol can, you might be able to see "VEIDT."
