Zach Snyder has been putting out great product ever since he did the impossible and remade Dawn of the Dead and actually pleased most fans. After that he went on to direct the stunning 300 with Frank Miller by his side. Now taking another comic adaptation he is bring to life Watchmen. What we have seen so far has been amazing and UGO has just posted a new video journal in which artist Dave Gibbons reminisces about working on the comic and enjoying what Snyder has done with the material.
You can check out the full video journal over at UGO. Watchmen is scheduled to hit theaters on March 6th, 2009. "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?
