Wanna see Vargas-esque Pin-Up Art of Carla Gugino as Sally Jupiter from WATCHMEN???
Hey folks, Harry here... Wow - maybe it's Comic Con coming up - but tonight is Art Night at AICN! Got sent this from James Jean - and it kinda symbolizes how fucking awesome filmmaking is. You see - here is a created piece of mag-fucking-nificent art that looks as if it came from a by-gone era! To Dream of a time and place where Vargas painted Sally Jupiter for a Pin-Up! Sigh... What a dream. Here ya go...
Hey Harry, I wanted to share an illustration I did for the Watchmen movie that made a super-brief appearance in the trailer: Click Here For The Whole Story! It's a Vargas-esque portrait of Carla Gugino as Sally Jupiter. I worked with the great Alex McDowell on the piece. They told me the piece would play a role in introducing Sally Jupiter in the film -- hopefully it doesn't end up on the cutting room floor! Thanks for the support! All the Best, James Jean

Carla Gugino has some great tits.
by The Guy Who Slept Through Everything.
That are even more emphasized in an illustration. yum.
-
much like Carla G. -it does not look like says I.
-
That shit is almost NSFW. Excellent.
-
Sally Jupiter is a fox.
-
will be watching how they handle they very specific time frames explored in the film. The culture within the story was extremely defined, and it will be cool to see how well Snyder interprets it.
-
but I'd much rather see an actual picture of Carla in that costume! yowza!!
-
Carla Gugino is so fucking foxy. Remember Sin City? Yeah...noir boobs. Exciting.
-
she was great in both. sigh...

I mean....I look at my local 30 screen megaplex...I look at their grand marquee....I see Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Hellboy 2: The Golden Army, and now The Dark Knight (I mean not even with Batman in the title is how far we have come!!!) all up there...ok Iron Man is already off there but still....this is the dream. I even get to see an incredible trailer to FRACKING Watchmen in front of said Dark Knight movie!!! I gotta say if 10 years ago when I was graduating high school and sad that the world would never get to see how great comics are and I would never see the characters I grew up with done justice....if I went back and told that 18 year old what his eyes would behold on the marquee....he wouldn't believe it. Next time you feel like complaining about any comic movie...justified or not...just take a moment to think about how far we've come. PEACE ALL!

Want to touch the heinie...

Of course I also buy them a few sizes too small but that's another story for a different day.<p> She has great cans, that broad, and she's a good actress, which is almost as important as having a nice rack.
-
Carla Gugino is a huge step up from the comic version.
-
It's a nice painting.
-
She's cold and is wearing no bra.
-
there?
-
watchmen must have lots of boobies

Wowza.<p> Love the attention to detail Snyder is displaying for the Watchmen movie, but I still think hes not up to the match.
-
Agreed!!! and just think, in about six or so months from now, all these great flicks will be in our hot little hands on dvd and blue ray to watch repeatedly. Oh what a happy time that will be :)
-
She looks exactly like Carla Gugino. A bit younger Carla, naturally, as she is going to be playing Sally in the flashbacks and in the 80s.

I still think the trailer is a little over saturated - too comic booky. I always though it should be shot as a simple thriller, that happens to have people in silly costumes. But I love this, and the picture of the Minutemen. If they throw in some 30's serial and 60's Batman series and some saturday morning cartoon imagery for the different era flashbacks I'll love the hell out of this one.
-
Is A-O.K. by me.
-
are there too. You can't see 'em, but they're there. Now give us the more graphic (interpret that both ways) George Petty version!
-
His Fables covers are always goddamn amazing.
-
They should have used a NIN song. But using the pumpkins was not too shabby.
-
and I would bang ms. jupiter
-
that looks exactly like Carla G. in the face, once you can draw your eyes to her face. great job! new desktop background for me!
-
I almost wish I was single and in college so I could buy a poster of that and put it on my wall. Or ceiling.
-
homina homina homina<p>Carla Gugino was the deciding factor for my Sin City purchase...

Sorry, but if I saw that painting without any info...
by TheGhostWhoLurks
I wouldn't recognize the face as Carla Gugino's. It's too idealized.
-
This "poster" is a complete yawnfest. Who gives a shit?!?! AintItCool just loves to call anything news...really trolling the bottom of the barrel, aren't you guys?
-
Rebecca De Mornay... not that that's a bad thing.
-
go check out his website, jamesjean dot com, if you want to see some fucking sick art.
-
... is there a website that will give me the breakdown on what the mania is all about here? I saw a few photos of a few pages, and it didn't even strike me as a 'high art graphic novel' - looked like something from an early 1980's newspaper.
-
Grrrr.
-
Carla is hot!!!
-
I guess you could go to wikipedia and read up on it, but if you want my opinion, you really should read the book. It's incredibly multi-layered, not only the writing, but Dave Gibbons' art as well. It's a work that demands to be read several times because on the first reading, you're going to miss a lot. I realize a lot of people are not into comics, and I understand, but if you can overlook the medium, the story is amazing.
-
..the person painted on :) And Gugino's already VERY hot! Anyway, nice paint.. I'd like to have that on my wall
-
I want Gugino on my damn bed! Or kitchen table, anywhere so long as I can get a taste! DAAAMN!
-
ugggggh!
-
pin-ups are all about the legs. I want this one on my stealth bomber that i don't have.
-
covergirl . . . fantasy twosome. Boing. Nah, too much trouble. Where's that favorites page for Helen Mirren's bikini shot . . .
-
nice nipplage , yummy
-
Gugino is a goddess. Respect.
-
one of her legs is way longer than the other.
-
and this time it is not from chin drool. No one warned me I would need a tissue here.
-
The image won't end up on the cutting room floor; it's in the background of the Comedian's apartment during the fight scene.
