With eleven months to go until its release, the Watchmen movie makers have committed to releasing one video journal per month, on the 6th of each month. A quick check of the calendar uncovers that that means the first one is due right... about... now!
It's hard for me to express just how exciting this film may be for many of the comic fans who, like me, recall the thrill of reading each chapter of Watchmen as they arrived on the shelves in 1985 and 1986. Even just this inaugural four minute video tour of the "sets and sensibilities" going into the production of Watchmen fills me with hope that Zack Snyder may actually pull off the impossible and translate Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' masterpiece onto film. For the next eleven months, at least, I can dream.
