Watchmen character pics! Mar. 6, 2008

Source: Warner Bros.

Today, in honor of having exactly one year until the release of WATCHMEN, director Zack Snyder posted our first full look at five of the superheroes in costume on the film's official site. You get Jeffrey Dean Morgan as The Comedian, Patrick Wilson as Nite Owl, Matthew Goode as Ozymandias, Jackie Earle Haley as Rorschach and Malin Akerman as Silk Spectre. I'm sure most of you have tuned me out by now, but some pretty impressive stuff! I'd follow Snyder into a Rue McClanahan biopic at this point but what he's been able to do with this material really impresses me. Let's get a teaser trailer already!

I'm not quite to the point of getting overly excited about this film (I emphasize not "quite"), but I do like these images. Nice, dark mood to all of them with some cool costumes. Maybe a teaser will get me more pumped. Or maybe I should just read the comics. :)

Oh, and here's to hoping we get nipples with Silk Spectre's costume too.

Not only can joblo coin the term, but you can sue anyone that uses it. Thus increasing the advertising profit =)

Does Veit have nipples on his fucking costume??! Are you shitting me?!! Did they hire the costume designer from Batman&Robin or somethin? I would've thought Snyder would have the good sense to stay far, far away from that territory....

Aside from that, everybody else looks pretty good, especially Comedian and 'Scach. I'm still a tad underwhelmed though....

Hey guys, this is my first ever post here on joblo, and wow, what an article to post on! With these images, it looks like Snyder is doing something very damn right! The earlier production stills were good, but now that we can take a look at the characters, we can actually see what Snyder has been able to piece together. Here's to hoping this film is as good as it looks!

[link]!!

I mean, they do look really good. Especially so The Comedian, Rorschach, Ozymandias, and Silk Spectre II. Okay, so that's all of them except Nite Owl - he DOES look awfully Batman-ish, but I'd imagine the dark tone of the picture is adding to that, and he'll look more unique as we see more of him.

This is awesome. Seriously awesome. I just wonder what Doctor Manhattan will be like. Will he actually be a buck naked blue guy growing to gigantic proportions (ugh, that sounded awfully gay, lol).
