VIDEO: Watch THE AVENGERS Cut In The Style Of Zack Snyder's WATCHMEN Trailer

Watchmen and The Avengers - two well-loved CBMs that couldn't be more different. One was a commercial smash hit, the other a darker, cult favorite. Now, one YouTuber has brought both properties together, with pretty interesting results! Check it out!

Last week, we shared a very impressive Star Wars/Age Of Ultron trailer from YouTube editor, The Unusual Suspect. It seems he's been up to his old tricks again, delivering another entertaining little mash-up. This time, he turns his focus on Joss Whedon's original Avengers movie and Zack Snyder's Watchmen. The video features footage from Marvel's 2012's smash hit, re-cut in the style of Snyder's epic trailer - arguably one of the best CBM teasers of all time. Check it out below:


Perhaps what's most impressive here is the way he manages to seemlessly blend together two movies with such contrasting tones. It's also always great to hear that Smashing Pumpkins theme again. The Unusual Suspect has been making waves for some time now. If you haven't already, I'd recommend you check out some of his other works over on his channel.

What did you guys think? Are these two CBMs too different to ever work well together, or are there more similarilties than you initially thought? Let us know below!

@Korso - Tell me about it - it's the song that's always made this for me! Did you know it's a slowed-down version of the Batman & Robin theme song? I was mind-blown!



I prefer Snyder's version though.

This defintiely reminds me of just how good looking a movie Watchmen was, all my problems with it aside. Man, did I have a good time following the making of that movie! :D

The video itself is a nice mash-up, but it doesn't work for me as well as I'd hoped. I've the feeling that a similar video made from Age of Ultron footage might work better. Or maybe a general MCU/Watchmen mash-up, since there's already a little Cap 1 included here.

@minty Please don't bring back the horror of Batman and Robin...... Can't take the pain....

I may hate some and love others, but all of Snyder's movies look beautiful. Watchmen in particular.

It worked for watchmen. But I can't see that in the MCU. So far Iron man and The Winter Soldier have the perfect blend..
