Zack Snyder's Watchmen was relatively well-received by fans and overall was a box office success. Devoted to making a faithful adaptation of the Alan Moore/ Dave Gibbons graphic novel, the fact that Snyder's Watchmen film got made on the scale it did is a miracle. However, several other versions of Watchmen were in the works before Snyder got involved, with several coming close to being made. In this episode of WTF Happened to this Unmade Movie, we dig into versions that almost got made involving folks such as Terry Gilliam, David Hayter (who filmed a demo reel with Ray Stevenson and Rorschach and Iain Glen as Nite Owl), Darren Aronofsky and Paul Greengrass. Suppose any of these versions had gotten made. In that case, we might have gotten someone like Paddy Considine as Rorschach, Joaquin Phoenix as Nite Owl, and possibly even Tom Cruise as Ozymandias (in which case the adaptation likely would have had little to do with Moore's comic). In the end, perhaps it was best that no one succeeded in getting the movie made until Snyder, with it also paving the way for the excellent HBO limited series and maybe some future Watchmen stories to come.

“This Hugo Award-winning graphic novel chronicles the fall from grace of a group of super-heroes plagued by all-too-human failings. Along the way, the concept of the super-hero is dissected as the heroes are stalked by an unknown assassin.One of the most influential graphic novels of all time and a perennial best-seller, Watchmen has been studied on college campuses across the nation and is considered a gateway title, leading readers to other graphic novels such as V for Vendetta, Batman: The Dark Knight Returns and The Sandman series.”—Via Goodreads

Merry Christmas everyone! So in honor of the Christmas spirit, here's a little story: 34 years ago, Alan Moore & Dave Gibbons create arguably the magnum opus of the comic book/graphic novel genre. It's widely praised but when it comes time for the comic to be adapted, it goes through development hell and is considered widely unfilmable. To add insult to injury, Alan Moore goes crazy and considers comic book writing "sacred" and that any attempted adaptations of his work would be considered an abomination of man. Furthermore, he goes on to state that any comic book writer who creates anything derivative is a useless hack who contributes nothing to the genre. Even tho he himself made his name for publishing derivate works of other, more widely known characters. Fast forward 20+ years and Zach Snyder's adaptation of the comics is released in theaters in March of 2009. It receives mixed reviews, but the things that are undeniable about the film are thus: Snyder truly does do a pitch-perfect adaptation in every sense of the dictionary definition, as the film is, for the most part, a shot for shot, panel for panel straight adaptation of the comic with one of the most visually interesting aesthetics of any film, with two major differences: one, the infamous changed ending in which the manner through which Ozymandias enacts his final plan is changed significantly, and two, how he presents the heroes as more so cinematically embittered antiheroes with plenty of flash and matrix-like fight techniques, for the purposes of revere rather than deconstruction. The second point I feel is the larger criticism that stands out because it ultimately goes against the theme of the comic and ends up creating a severe clash of tones. As for changing the ending, that one I'm chalking up to dumb luck because there's no way Snyder is smart enough to think of an ending that's better, makes more sense by every definition and in a way makes the flaws of the comic almost passable on his own. Then comes Damon Lindelof, who's made a name for himself for having created two of the most widely known and critically praised shows of the last two decades. Having been offered the opportunity twice before to adapt Watchmen, he finally accepts the third time knowing he probably won't get a shot like this again. It's been 34 years since the comic, 10 years since the movie, and the time is ripe. So he does it. And now Chris & I are here to review it. Merry Christmas to all, this is...HBO's Watchmen. Enjoy. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
When we decided to take on Watchmen for the podcast, we had no idea how different the series would be from its graphic novel source material. The show has proven to be exactly the “remix” that showrunner Damon Lindelof said it would be, but a central question of our podcast discussion is this: Do you have to be familiar with the 1986 Alan Moore/Dave Gibbons comic in order to understand what’s happening in the HBO series?Other points of analysis include why this version of Watchmen decided to make race a central factor, whether or not police chief Judd Crawford is a good guy, why the costumed vigilantes like Red Scare and Looking Glass have such simplistic costumes, and what the heck is going on with Will and Adrian Veidt: two equally mysterious characters. We also break down nods to the original comic such as the squid storms, the Minutemen biopic, the Rorschach masks, and the many references to Dr. Manhattan.As with most of our show discussions, we focus on the events in the first two episodes of the season, and because that’s all that has aired on HBO so far (until tonight anyway), there is no “spoiler zone” in this edition of the podcast. However, the opening story gave us plenty of fodder for discussion and debate even as far as analyzing the delightfully cumbersome episode titles: “It’s Summer and We’re Running Out of Ice” and “Martial Feats of Comanche Horsemanship.” See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
We are diving into another graphic novel this week, probably one that most people have heard of. And we thought we should get a comic book expert on to help us out! Thanks to our special guest Sam Bashor for all the history and background info that we definitely didn't know and be sure to check out his podcast Only Stupid Answers and YouTube channel Might Be Awesome!

Esta noche anticipamos el apocalipsis. Toca hablar de la obra que cambió las mallas de colores tal y como las conocíamos. Repaso más o menos exhaustivo del universo Watchmen, sin pelos en la lengua y con ligeras dosis de comedia. Desde la obra original, pasando por la película, proyectos paralelos y, cómo no, las polémicas secuelas y precuelas. "¿Sabes qué me gustaría? Me gustaría que toda la escoria de la Tierra estuviera en una sola garganta, y tener mis manos en torno a ella" (Rorschach dixit). Intervienen: Pablo González, Álex De la Vela. https://www.facebook.com/tipososcuros/ @CineHeroico
It's the first anniversary of #KomrikPodcast! Untuk merayakan, kita akan membahas salah satu modern comic masterpieces yang udah banyak kalian request, WATCHMEN! Bukan cuma komik Watchmen, tapi bekas yang ditinggalkan karya Alan Moore & Dave Gibbons ini di dunia perkomikan dan pop culture. Very influential and one hell of a comic book. Enjoy!
SDCC 2018 - The Len Wein Memorial Panel (Room 4, Thurs 19th July 2018) The first day proper of this years San Diego Comic-Con was hectic, eventful, punishing, exhausting, rewarding, and ultimately heartwarming and very emotional - Thursday had plenty to see and do throughout its programming but there was one panel that I was determined not to miss: the Len Wein Memorial panel, celebrating the work and mostly the big, big life of the comics industry giant who passed away in September of last year. Len Wein was, with no word of exaggeration, a titan of comics, not only in his output - co-creator of characters like DC Comics' Swamp Thing and Marvel Comics' Wolverine, as well as one of the men responsible for the revival in fortunes of the X-Men and editing Alan Moore / Dave Gibbons' WATCHMEN - but also in the size of his heart. He was, by all accounts, a boisterous, exuberant, warm, generous and extremely kind-hearted man, as evidenced by the love and joy that was on evidence at this 'let's not call it a memorial'. There were many major players in his life in the room, and on the panel, moderated by Greg Weisman: award-winning TV producer Lynn Latham, writer/producer Gillian Horvath, Wein's widow Christine Valada, writer Melinda Snodgrass, former DC Comics' President Paul Levitz, and writer/producer Charlotte Fullerton. All had many personal stories of living with, working for and generally having a blast with Len Wein over the years. There were a few absent faces I thought might make an appearance - Dave Gibbons was in town so I assumed he might show his face, also Neil Gaiman was pencilled down to be the guest moderator of the panel until some reckless fool spotted Gaiman's name on the CCI programming schedule, tweeted out that he would be in the room and instantly pulled (yeah, that 'reckless fool' was me - gutted!!). Still, there were plenty of people willing to share their stories from out in the audience and it was a pleasure and an honour to be there to help celebrate the legacy of this amazing creative force. Len, as then as is now: you are missed, sir.

'Tis the season for Zack Snyder, fa la la la la la, la laaa laaa laaa---ahem, yeah, given Snyder is all in vogue, we thought we might keep the focus on the big man as Chris Wallace (hosting for the first time) and Wikishuffle compadre Phil Sharman are joined by Pop Culture Parlour's Stacey Taylor. They look at WATCHMEN, Snyder's divisive adaptation of Alan Moore & Dave Gibbons's unfilmable graphic novel, square the focus on Alan Moore movies in general, before looking also at EVIL DEAD 2 - though that's not the one all of them have watched. Oh and this one has, without doubt, the most fun & protracted quiz Pick a Flick! has ever done. Thanks to all for the nominations and join us next time for more fun & japery.
