Watchmen in Entertainment Weekly
July 18, 2008 by Ann Lake
In Entertainment Weekly’s Comic Con Special, Watchmen graces the cover with an interview with Zack to complete the package. The images are below.
In his bungalow on the Warner Bros. lot, keeps a suitcase large enough to hold a rocket launcher. It doesn’t. Popping open the lid reveals a set of finely crafted action figures encased in black foam: Dr. Manhattan. Rorschach. Ozymandias. Nite Owl. Silk Spectre. The Comedian. They’re based on comic-book superheroes that aren’t exactly household names, but if the director of the sword-and-sandals smash has his way, these characters will become icons as explosive as any state-of-the-art weapon. ”In my movie, doesn’t care about humanity, can’t get it up, and the bad guy wants world peace,” Snyder says with a smirk. ”Will has his way, these characters will become icons as explosive as any state-of-the-art weapon. ”In my movie, Watchmen be the end of ? Probably not. But it sure will kick them in the gut.”

It is nice to see superheroes who are human and have the same faults and ideals which is akin to all of us…..This movie will be very successful, because it seems to hit us all in the “gut”….And by the way, someone commented that Alan Moore is a master story teller!……Well, if you look at Snyder’s body of work, I can’t think of ever being disappointed(Clydesdale Super Bowl Commercial-2002, “300″, Audi Eskimo Commercial, and the list goes on and on)……He’s one of the few people who brings it right to your heart, whether you are a steelworker or a Harvard MBA…..
The real question is, “Who’s watching the Watchmen?”…….It’s pretty obvious that Zack is…!!!
