  2. 1138 says:

    That looks terrible!!!! Man that looks cheesy!!! They look so much better in the movie trailer!!

  3. Sound Designer Dan says:

    Why do EW covers always have to look so goddamn cheap?

  4. Big John says:

    That looks like the gayest movie I’ve ever seen. I don’t think she needs to worry about hanging around in those superhero change rooms.

  5. Mozzerino says:

    Yep,it’s not a good cover. The team looks photoshopped together and the blue background gives it a cheap look.
    But what’s the worst about it is that Ozymandias looks like he just came from Christopher Street Day. Now I don’t have a problem with a bit of campness, but that’s overdoing it by far.

  6. Nixon says:

    I agree, movie looks so much better !!!

  7. tzaylor says:

  8. digitaldrew says:

  9. Bobby says:

    the trailer was badass but i dont know how i feel about this cover. i doubt non-watchmen fans are gonna be interested in this.

  11. parker says:

    I am not a wacthmen fan, and have never even heard of it until this movie. So when I see a trailer that tells me nothing about it and a photo of the characters I must say I am not too interested int his. Looks like a serious take on mystery men, which is pretty awful.

  12. grendel25 says:

    Has anyone complained that the Comedian is smoking on the cover?

  13. cib3k says:

    Amazing my a$$. Looks terrible as hell.

  14. chris (the real one) says:

    i dont know much about the watchmen, my pops (rip) has the books somewhere, im looking for it now. i personally thought the trailer was amazing, but many in the theater were like wtf when they saw it….i dont see this movie doin well in the box office, unless the have better promotion…

  15. Mike Mai says:

    as long as we see nite owl banging the shit out of laurie, i’ll be happy.

  16. Stevie says:

    It’s 90210 meets the Village People!

  17. bjon86 says:

    yea the trailer does do the movie more justice. but question: is the blue guy the bad guy?

  18. CC says:

    Lemme get this straight…you’re freaking out over how the cover looks compared to the movie trailer? And that some is indicative of the quality of the film?

    The trailer was cut from the film, on which they spent millions.

    The EW cover was probably shot in a few days with some high-gain light to catch everything and with some Photoshopping to paste them all into the same shot. The cover of a magazine will, generally, not look as good the trailer.

    The trailer, by the way, is amazing.

  19. Travis Clark says:

    Grendel25m r YOU complaining that the comedian is smoking? Cuz if u r, that’s ridiculous.

    I’m gonna put this out there so all of you who say this movie looks “cheesy” can shove the words right up thier asses:

    If u haven’t read the amazing graphic novel by alan moore and dave gibbons, and ur ridiculing the movie based on the trailer, YOU HAVE NOTHING TO SAY. I doubt you’d be saying that if you’d read the book. If you know nothing about watchmen, read the novel before you make asswipe remarks.

    The novel, which is considered by many to be the greatest piece of popular fiction ever produced, is NOT a serious take on mystery men, as i read someone saying. Neone who says that CLEARY has no idea what the hell they’re saying and ur basing that on THIS cover, which i admit is not great, but guess what? THIS IS ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY. THEY did this cover, not the creators behind the movie.

    Learn ur facts b4 u make stupid comments bout stuff u have no clue about, kay?

    Just watched Watchmen, one of the shittiest movies I’ve ever seen, one of the highest budget shit movies I’ve ever seen. Total garbage I would say, the movie was a big fucking gay escapade basically. More blue cock and balls than anyone should ever have to deal with, we’re talking like 4 sets of junk on screen at one time, the plot was idiotic, the thing was boring as hell, like its almost always a 35 minute wait in between anything that resembles ass kicking, and with the cheesy fucking suits it still sucks, I felt like I was watching a cross between the power rangers and some gay porn. I want my money back and I its too bad Miller would put out such a shitty gay ass movie after his last 2 movies were so completely bad ass.
