"Watchmen" is set in an alternate 1985 America in which costumed superheroes are part of the fabric of everyday society, and the "Doomsday Clock" -- which charts the USA's tension with the Soviet Union -- is permanently set at five minutes to midnight. When one of his former colleagues is murdered, the masked vigilante Rorschach, washed up but determined, sets out to uncover a plot to kill and discredit all past and present superheroes. As he reconnects with his former crime-fighting legion -- a ragtag group of retired superheroes, only one of whom has true powers -- Rorschach glimpses a wide-ranging and disturbing conspiracy with links to their shared past and catastrophic consequences for the future. Their mission is to watch over humanity... but who is watching the Watchmen?

I loved this movie. One of the few that I actually prefer the movie over the comic.

Can't imagine why they didn't use the Rorschach one, what with it featuring the Twin Towers...

Just read two Watchmen GNs, Minutemen/Silk Spectre and Rorschach/Comedian. Loved both of these!
That first poster on Lady Liberty is badass!

@MAC
I'm pretty sure Silk Spectre was originally meant to be Black Canary. Comedian was The Peacemaker.

And of course, the problem with using the characters that DC acquired from Charlton Comics, is that it sort of removed a lot of them from play... at least for the time being.

@Jollem - That art is amazing. Never seen that exact one. Featuring two of my top 5 favorites ever. Rorschach and Constantine up front. Just amazing. Thanks for sharing.

Agreed, Director's Cut of Watchmen is amazing. Saw this one in theaters way back when. Agreed with all that Jackie Earle Haley absolutely nailed Rorschach. He need's the respect that performance deserves.

not everyone appreciates censorship, or is insecure enough to care.

Not a fan of Watchmen. Didn't really like the graphic novel that much and I didn't like the movie much either (although I am glad they took out that squid). I find both to be respectable work, but I think like many things that are held in very high esteem, a lot of people love Watchmen partially because it is so highly praised and they go in with the attitude of "this is brilliance."
