Warner Bros. Pictures has provided us with the new trailer for director Zack Snyder's Watchmen, opening in conventional theaters and IMAX. Warner Bros. Pictures' big screen adaptation of the graphic novel stars Patrick Wilson, Jackie Earle Haley, Matthew Goode, Billy Crudup, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Malin Akerman, Carla Gugino, Stephen McHattie and Matt Frewer.

A complex, multi-layered mystery adventure, 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 washed-up but no less determined masked vigilante Rorschach 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?

You can watch the trailer in various formats here!

WOW! I'm more excited than ever to see this movie, and I was pretty darn excited before. Any trailer/movie/book that starts with defenestration is okay with me.

i think comedian and the killer are duking it out in the beginning of the movie, it won't start out like the comic where he's already been dead for a couple of hours. i still think this gn can't be done faithfully unless it's a 12 part mini-series on hbo or something. 12hrs of watchmen? i think we'd all watch it.

...psst...jon voight is nixon.

sure its a bit of a cop out to change the crimebusters to watchmen, but you know people who haven't read the book will come out of the movie saying "why'd they call it watchmen?" "they never said it in the entire movie!!" so it probably was a good idea, even though it sounds weird to those of us who've read it.
