ingvildI've thought that making a movie of Watchmen was a bad idea ever since I first heard about it. The comic is dense, heavy, and with several storylines - and a deconstruction of the superhero genre. I've argued that for it to be proper as a movie, it would have to be a deconstruction of the superhero movie genre - and that doesn't have enough history yet.
While the trailer looks awesome (for a comic fan - I don't know about the people who aren't familiar with the work), I'm still not sure I want to see it at a movie theatre.
However. If the rumors are true, and they really do include Tales of the Black Freighter as a cartoon and Under the Hood (Nite Owl 1's autobiography) as a documentary, I definitely want the DVD.
