    David Chen! I haven't listened through the whole podcast yet so I don't know if this has been corrected, but it's "WATCHMEN", just "WATCHMEN", not "The WATCHMEN". It may seem like a small detail, but putting "the" in front of watchmen signifies this is some sort of specific group. Unfortunately, I think the film will label the main protagonists "the watchmen" even though no such title appeared in the comic. It's a shame because this word in the comic related to the Satires quote as restated in the Warren Tower Commission Report (very last page of the comic), as well as the larger concept of those with authority, those who hold power in our society. It's not supposed to represent a specific group of people called the watchmen, it's just the meaning behind that word that's important.

    Please don't call it "the" Watchmen!
