Posters and Footage from Watchmen!

Now that The Dark Knight hoopla is winding down it’s time to start switching our attention to the next potentially great comic book movie: Watchmen. Despite the fact that the movie doesn’t come out for another 7 months, the Warner Brothers marketing machine is already gearing up. They started by showing the trailer in front of The Dark Knight, which means that countless millions of people have seen it. Not a bad way to start off a marketing blitz.

The next phase of the campaign took place at ComicCon, where the cast and crew answered questions, screened some footage, and showed off some posters. The posters are below, and the video is after the jump.

Here’s the footage that was shown at ComicCon, though I have to warn you, the quality is really bad:

Stay tuned as the marketing machine really gets going. We’ll keep you posted each step of the way. Oh, and go buy a copy of Watchmen now so you can be up-to-speed when the movie comes out on March 3rd.
