Well, most likely, you have heard things about this movie. Whether it is the preview, the comic (graphic novel basically), or you have heard about the quibbles it had to get on the big screen, WATCHMEN is a superhero (if you can call it that) movie and is being directed by the "visionary director" (eh) Zach Snyder, which you may know from his only 2 other movies, haha: Dawn of the Dead (the recent re-make) and 300. I would tell you the premise, but frankly, from what i have read in the many reviews, i still cant rap my head around the plot. There are many things going on here, but there are some things i do know:

1) it isnt really a superhero movie considering the only actual "super"hero is Dr. Manhattan, who is a naked blue-glowing man. The rest are actually just normal people in latex.

2) it takes place in an alternate 80's era where Nixon is in his third term.

3) the graphic novel inspired the writers of Lost (YAY!)

4) its rated R, and its Zach Snyder, which should just say it all, haha

Well, i'm very excited about this movie and i cant wait till this saturday when (hopefully) the guys and I see it.
