    Just the long shot of The Comedian falling for what seems like forever sold me. Hopefully it actually comes out in March. Judging by the popularity, I can see a settlement in court being made not to long before the release with Fox walking away with a lot of money.

    Do you realize how many 'slow motion' shots were in that preview?? Like almost every one. Just like in 300, it seems like Zak Snyder uses that technique to death. Visually, the movies are outstanding, but hopefully there's going to be room for at least a little substance. God, HOPEFULLY more than was in 300. Watchmen is such a rich material, it will be utterly shameful if it isn't explored and developed thematically as much as it deserves to, which should be at least enough to match the visuals, if not more.

    I've seen the "regular" trailer in the theaters, and was blown away.

    The "new" parts that I noticed in this looked terrible! Manhatten blowing up the tank looks like crap, Rorschach "leaping" up onto the window sill felt all wrong. He's the detective, torn and probably insane yes, but the one guy who doesn't have ANY kind of super powers, just his detective intuition and "clarity." Here is is leaping up onto the ledge as if he is Jet-Li in an ariel sword fight from Hero.

    I certainly hope the rest of the film is better than that. If the film makers turn Rorschach into a "wire" fighting martial artist than this will be a travesty.

    In the book do they ever show Rorschach's real face or is he always in that mask?
    And how does the mask keep changing?

    Here are some SPOILERS for 790's sake, but really, if you haven't read Watchmen, what are you waiting for?

    They show Rorschach's face in the book, and the mask keeps changing because the material is a plastic-like cloth with ink in between. It was meant to be high-fashion.

    Thanks Cole ,,,
    I havnt read the book yet because I'm waiting for the film.
    At this point so close to the release date, I don't want to fall in love with the book and be let down with the film. So I'm waiting......

    Thanks for the info,,, I hope they show Rorshachs face in the film,,, I love that Owl Ship "Archie" I saw that ship up close at the Scream Awards and it looked awesome.... ( I wanted to get in and fly out of here ;-)
    The trailer looks great as well. !!!

    790 you need to read it, if you wait for the film and it blows then it will turn you off
    to reading it besides do you really want to be like all of those other losers who is
    going to look it up on wikipedia then watch the movie and then read the comic
    book? trust me you will appreciate the movies detail more if you read the comic
    book. if you read it the movie will be good no matter what because seeing the
    characters come to life is amazing
