As Director Zack Snyder (300) promised before, he’ll release one video journal every month until the release of the movie WATCHMEN, which will be next year, March 6th, 2009 to be exact.
We’ve seen the first video journal HERE, which discussed the set location and the art designer.
This time, via Joblo, the clip talks about the costumes and how clothing needs to match with the two eras depicted in the story, which are the 1930s and the 1980s.
You will see that they’re being very loyal to the graphic novel that this movie is based on. The color and the looks will feel like they jump straight right out of the pages.
It’s going to be colossal.
Don’t forget the advertising contest, if you got what it takes to win, you might get your commercial video clip featured in the movie.
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?”
