er... just testing

Incidentally, I should admit that these pictures look really, really good.  Seeing Bernie and the Gunga Diner for real was an odd experience.  I just have a long standing objection to changing the medium of this particular work that won't let me, or it,  be.  It's probably phisiological in origin, a leison in brocca's area, or something.

Good link, Larf.  Interesting that the crew drank 1 gallon of water for every donut they consumed, or indeed used 10 nails per donut.  I'd love a ramble around that set!

I'll savor this moment when things look good for the movie in case it goes bad later. Remember, there was an earlier Watchmen movie script that leaked onto the net that changed the ending (I seem to recall all the characters appeared in the 'real' non-Watchmen world or something.

I think they'll keep it loyal but whether it translates we'll have to see.

Can someone put up scans of the comic to compare the scenes?

For me, I'm still not impressed, they look like a movie set, something a bit fake looking about them, the buildings don't look 'solid', you can kinda see it's a facade..... or something like that.

They've shown some panels from the comic alongside their photos here...sort of...

Would you look at the picture of the Max Headroom chap beside Moloch. You'd be hard pressed to find a closer match.

[Roger Godpleton]

Those stills are almost good, but they seem a bit too stylised.

[Radbacker]

cant wait for this, hope Snyder can pull it off.  I like his movies so far but there both pretty action packed, Watchmen is not an actionpacked story really.

As long as he has a box of tissues he will be fine.

Oooooh looky look. Apparently this image is hidden in the 300 DVD trailer...http://watchmencomicmovie.com/photos/rorshach_badge.jpg">

The Rorchach badge shot looks like a publicity shot mocked up in Photoshop probably long before filming.

The other shots look pretty convincing to me, nice that they got all the extras in place.
