Apparently, I'm crazy. At least, that's what Odie Henderson thinks, since I found the trailer for Zack Snyder's Watchmen movie to be awesome, and Odie thinks it is worthy of a torch enema. I personally think Odie is a little crazy, but I understand why people are protective of the classic graphic novel. Which is why I may have just the thing for Mr. H. and others of his mindset: a Watchmen movie that exactly follows the comic book -- to the word, and to the line.
DC has turned the Watchmen comic books into motion comics for iTunes, using the same technology that many others have used to turn their comic books into "cartoons" before now. MTV has done something similar with Invincible, but Warner Brothers has done an amazing job with Watchmen, packing an amazing amount of animation into each panel, given that the images were static just six months ago. If you want to see what Rorschach's mask looks like when it moves without creating a so-called travesty of Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' work, you owe it to yourself to check it out. The first chapter is available for free download now.
