"Tales of the Black Freighter" aka More Watchmen Crap

black

Ok so above we have a screenshot from the “The Black Freighter” and down below we have the trailer. What the hell is “The Black Freighter” you ask? Well lucky for you I know. Think of “The Black Freighter” as a story within the story of the Watchman. It was cut from the movie but Zack Snyder has decided to do an animated version of the tale that will be released on DVD on March 24.

It doesn’t look too bad. It has a Ninja Scroll vibe to me, but whatever. I still can’t believe how much news keeps coming out about this damn movie. Every 4…no wait…yeah every 3 seconds there is more news about it. Just come out already!

New Watchmen Pictures Look Lame

the-axis-of-evil-630-75

Since I was just talking about the new Watchmen movie I thought it would be a great time to go ahead and post a couple new pictures that were released over at TotalFilm.com. You may want to visit their site for the entire story and a few other pictures that I didn’t bother to post here because I thought they were boring.

But for the two pictures I did decide to post here…uh…yeah. What the hell right? I mean really what the hell? These pictures look like they are winners in a Wizard magazine costume contest. And please someone tell me why a Nazi supervillian isn’t wearing any pants? Anyone? I mean I know Germans can be pretty weird sometimes but come on. This is just too freakin’ much, even for a Nazi! But I guess I shouldn’t pick on the Nazi too much, because he at least looks cool from the waist up. It’s just the waist down part I can’t handle. I mean really is he trying to showcase his “package”?

But I guess in some weird way it’s better than the “old man balls” beside him. That jackass looks like an idiot from head to toe. Jeez. And don’t even get me started on the fucking hamburgler in the back. These morons better be pretty damn cool and in some seriously heavy shadows if they are going to pull this shit off.

Last but not least we have Night Owl’s Antarctica outfit. Wow just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse right? I’m still trying to figure out if he is supposed to be pimp at a ski slalom or a lucha libre. Freakin’ La Parka’s costume scares me more than this shit.

I still have faith in the movie but after seeing these pictures I have to say I have my doubts.

20th Century Fox screwing over the Watchmen

Looks like the assholes over at 20th century Fox are stopping the release of the Watchmen movie according to this article from E! online. I quoted the lines that enraged me below.

Fox originally tried to develop the project more than a decade ago, but didn’t manage to get the film off the drawing board. The studio claims Warners never properly acquired the rights to Watchmen, and, in a major twist, instead of seeking a share of the would-be blockbuster’s box-office gross, Fox is seeking to kill the flick entirely before it unspools in theaters March 6.

Cue the agonized cries of fanboys everywhere.

A federal judge in Los Angeles agreed with Fox lawyers that there’s enough evidence to keep the lawsuit going forward—and keep the film’s release in limbo.

Can you believe this shit? First off I am still trying to figure out how Time Warner, the company that owns DC Comics, managed to not have rights and/or control over what should be their property. In other news 20th Century Fox also plans to punch your mother…in the face…twice.

You can be Zack Snyder's bitch!

I like Zack Snyder. He did one helluva remake of Dawn of the Dead and also did a great good job on 300. But now Zack is giving you (yes you) the chance to make a commerical/ad for his newest movie the Watchmen. That’s all great and everything but if I am going to be doing ads for some big Hollywood movie there better be a little more to it than glory. Like oh I don’t know…money, maybe smelling Angelina Jolie’s hair (ahhhh) or getting Sean Connery coffee.

But if you are still interested click here for all the details….you attention whore.

Watchmen Costumes Revealed! ooohhh ahhhh..

Below are the first images of the costumes for the upcoming Watchmen movie. To put it eloquently, “I love me some Watchmen”, but I don’t know about these photos. I mean the costumes don’t look bad but they don’t really look all that great either. Sorta like a mini-cooper or Jennifer Aniston.

If you want to read more here is the link the Zack Snyder (he’s the director ya know) blog.
