Saturday, February 21, 2009 at 4:11AM New Viral Video - Who Watches the 'Watchmen'
Even more viral video now from Watchmen, although I have to admit, this is the worst of the three we've seen. The concept behind it is good enough, but in never really goes anywhere or shows us anything about the movie we need to know.

Set in 1983 on the Veidt Music Network, named for Watchmen member Adrian Veidt (Ozymandias), the video is a spoof of the early days of MTV, back when it played music. Your host for the countdown, Who Watches the Watchmen, is Jenny Jones, who has shades of Martha Quinn. I got really excited at first, though, because I thought this would have an actual music video.
Of course, none of this stuff is in the movie, but the viral videos have created timelines for the uninitiated out there. However, if that's the real purpose, they should just give you a copy of the graphic novel. We're less than two weeks away now, with Watchmen opening March 6th.

I can't wait for this movie. It looks fantastic. At least they managed to solve the legal disputes regarding this movie and got it released on time.
