The Watchmen
By admin | July 22, 2008
Was anyone else as impressed with the Watchmen trailer as I was? My second viewing (yeah, I’m that loser that saw The Dark Knight twice) pretty much solidified it for me. Undoubtedly, the trailer would not have had the same dramatic affect without the awesome remixed version of the Smashing Pumpkins‘ “The End is the Beginning is the End”, which was ironically written for Batman & Robin. Unlike it’s predecessor, the remixed version which is titled, “The Beginning is the End is the Beginning” drops the pop act, and brings to the surface a much darker and thought provocative feeling. Not only does the song work wonders for the Watchmen trailer, but for me, having the song precede the Dark Knight was like a parallel between the Batman films of yore, and the new and improved Batman of today.

At the huge San Diego International comic book convention, The Watchmen was all the rage. It should be huge!
Hope all’s been well with you!
