However, comic fans won’t be satisfied with this and neither will regular audiences." I loved both 300 and what he's doing for Watchmen so far, and I've been a comics fan since I was a kid. I guess I'm a unique snowflake in your world. “He has the sensibilities of a music video/commercial director, which I guess the ADD youth responds to.

Along with cheap plastics that give after you pull them from their packaging. I find that they don't pose well either. If it's a good sculpture I don't care if they can't move. I like this TDK DC Direct one http://www.dccomics.com/dcdirect/?dcd=9825&lst=new&cat=JUST+ANNOUNCED I think McFarlane statue figures suck.

He has the sensibilities of a music video/commercial director, which I guess the ADD youth responds to. However, comic fans won't be satisfied with this and neither will regular audiences. Unless he really changes things, I don't see a R rated period superhero film with minimal action scenes to do big numbers at the BO. Snyder obviously doesn't handle actors very well (DOD and 300's non action scenes played like bad soaps) which will really hurt him on this film since Watchmen is mostly dialogue.

That said...these are pretty cool though, aside from what I said. Rorschach is def. a must have. Except, not digging the tiny hands. Now I'm Negative Nancey.
