"Watchmen" reel shown at European Film Expo




The website CHUD (Cinematic Happening Under Development) has the following information about European Film Exhibitors seeing a bit of "Watchmen":

"The first audience to see footage from Watchmen was a bunch of European exhibitors at the Cinema Expo convention in Amsterdam. And frustratingly, that's all we know at the moment: footage was seen. We don't know what it is, how it went over, etc etc etc. Hopefully some information will leak out in the coming days.

I do know that there's a finished cut of the film and that the people who have seen it have been ecstatic about it. I have heard that the trailer will be attached to The Dark Knight, but that seems common sensical rather than revelatory. And I know there was an 18 minute sizzle reel that blew away Warner Bros suits last year and that will likely be seen, in a much shorter form, at Comic Con."

At the end of the article is a link to posters created from the character's photos we saw earlier.
(above is the poster created from the earlier shot of Patrick as "Night Owl II".

The excitement is building!
