Watch Out For THE WATCHMEN

This March, Zack Snyder, director of 300, brings us a cinematic adaptation of the most celebrated graphic novel of all time, THE WATCHMEN. Based on the trailer below, I have no doubt that the film will prove to contain ultra visual and styllistic eye candy, but the depth and richness of the storytelling is what gives me the most reservation. 300, though at times visually stunning, had a weak story, week characters, and presented a world in which pointless violence was celebrated, along with a false sense of machoism and heroism. I am weary but hopefull that THE WATCMEN will prove different.


Coming to a Universe Near You...STAR TREK!

Let me just say, when I heard JJ Abrams was rebooting the STAR TREK film franchise, I was a little worried. Abrams last directorial effort, MISSION IMPOSSIBLE 3, was good, but felt more like an action packed episode of Alias then a full blown cinematic experience. But, with the trailer below, and Abrams apparent love of the various STAR TREK television series, most notably THE NEXT GENERATION (my favorite), my interest has now shot through the roof. Abrams hope was to introduce STAR TREK to a whole new generation and if the following is any indication, Abrams may very well achieved just that.

Enjoy...
