Has Warners Gone Too Far With This Promotion of WATCHMEN?!?!?
Hey folks, Harry here... You may have seen images of Dr Manhattan appearing along the Thames in London. And I remember thinking... That's outrageous. Then later I got sent this link! Seems that Warner Brothers' marketing department has really pulled out all the stops. I'm convinced that future Warner Brothers, sent a team of promo people to Mars, 45 years ago, to create a smiley face on the surface of Mars to tie in to a scene from the movie and the comic. That WARNER BROTHERS decided that TIME & SPACE technology would further maximize the market penetration and stability of the WATCHMEN is indeed very forward thinking.
The sneakiest part of this promotion is that we're supposed to think it is just a coincidence. That the image from VIKING inspired Alan Moore. But I have a strange feeling of Deja Vu.... so I think this is something that has been altered in our time line. How about you?

You're not serious are you?

Be cooler if there was a drip of blood along the upper left side. Cynical talkbackers are Go!
-
Whatever were you smoking just now, Harry?
-
I was reading about this somewhere the other day (either in one of the Watchmen companions or online), about Gibbons finding out about this smiley face formation on mars and incorporating it into the book (Moore wasn't aware it existed). Turns out it was just a happy coincidence as Gibbons was looking for ways to reinforce the smiley face symbology.
-
Okay.............
-
Straight up, this "article" is sub-par by even relaxed blog standards.
-
REAL TALK
-
what's with all these weird District 9 ads i keep seeing everywhere?
-
But it did not make it into the final rover images, alas, because the robot did not think the people at NASA could handle it.
-
Tell Yoko to pack me a bowl, I need to catch up to where you are right now.
-
I actually laughed in the movie when they showed that, I thought it was pretty clever.
-
your fucking lucky i JUST got back form seeing it, cuz u make no fucking sense and just spoiled a part of the movie
-
but the pics are pretty ^>^
-
watchmen is awesome. there's a smiley face. and harry cums all over himself with even the slightest reference, intentional or not.
-
Damn You Mattforce7
-
thnks
-
...here's the link...http://tinyurl.com/ba8sds
Quite impressive, in my opinion. -
but sense they are adapting the entire comic, i give them some room for error, cuz it played out pretty good, felt like chapters in a book almost
-
oh, that must have been from the Christian Bale Caption thingamajig...who ever won that anyways...cake??
-
basic research on Wikipedia will tell you that Gibbons incorporated the Galle crater into the comic long after it was discovered Harry...I mean, come on! Next there will be an article dedicated to how the recurring silhouette images that are graffitti in New York follow Rorschach throughout the book....I mean Jesus dude, no offense, but you NEVER knew this until now? Im no Watchmen expert but Ive read the book 3 times and I knew this....I mean fair enough if you didnt find this until out, but theres no need to write a friggin article on it....
-
Did you know that the smiley face is actually copyrighted by someone?
-
Go fuck yourself.
-
There's a shot of it in the comic.
-
and we really think it is in your best interest if you put down the paint, the sock, and stop thinking about "Watchmen" right now. No..don't start crying...and throwing a fit isn't going to make the situation better... We your talkback parents overlooked the signs all those months ago when you cried at Indy 4...but this Watchmen obsession has just grown to unhealthy proportions...something has to be done before you hurt yourself..or hurt others around you. So at this time we really think that your computer needs to be taken away for awhile...your comic books and movies collected for safe keeping..and that you go outside with the other kids, see the sun..and in a few weeks we'll reassess whether or not you've made enough progress to be able to have them back. And No you may NOT have a Pepsi.
-
thanks for the link...those credits are pretty damn nifty...
-
... THE WATCHMEN?
-
someone is developing a horror script based on it right now..
-
You should know better Harry.
-
He's really starting to reveal himself to be a mouth-for-hire, in the form of a naive, sycophantic, inarticulate, overgrown child.

..amusing

Is it a comic strip?

Does Zach Snyder have any thoughts or emotions
by guy who got a headache and accidentally
How do you film that half hour awkward sex scene without your brain shouting out, "STOP, this is stupid!" Or any of the other really weird scenes. It just seemed like in the hands of any other director with the same script it wouldn't have been so stupid. It didn't help having that terrible out of place soundtrack that I already heard half of on the radio on the way to the theatre.
-
ever since the books, or book, and the constant coverage and critical appraise, its like, he doesn't even exist anymore, like someone replaced him with...PLANTS...and Donald Sutherland is fucking pissed off about it too
-
just weird dude
-
not very consistent, the songs chosen were fine, but the score went from cheesy guitar riffs echoing in the dark night to operatic grander! ONe fine piece of music was Rex which is part of Mozarts Requiem.

Best news fangirls have gotten all year. That's quite enough trout-slapping for one weekend, Warner Bros!
-
Weird, huh?
-
Are you saying the pics are faked, just for advertising? I think they have been around for years as someone above mentioned.
-
...stop. Just stop. It is beyond madness.
Everyone already knows way too much about this fucking movie! The whole movie is spoiled, thanks to your staff and the rest of the internet pundits. We know where to find the reviews, we know what Ebert thinks. For the love of all that is sacred...STOP. -
Seriously...
-
its like half the movie...the dong saves us
-
It's supposed to read: "Has AICN Gone Too Far With This Promotion of WATCHMEN?!?!?"
-
Did it ever occur to anyone that Harry was just posting something he thought was fun and neat? Anyone who comes to those site knowws how Harry writes and it's blatant he was just having fun. It's sad how the viewer ship of this site has just spiralled down to people who just want to bitch about anything and everything and jump at the chance to trash Harry. I'll be the first to admit I don't care about his political opinions, his lap band, most of his childhood or his wife's taste in music but this time around the guy was just trying to share something he thought was fun. Give the guy a break.

Other than that there's some blue guy in it, and a ship that looks like an owl.

Just sayin'... -
...in promoting this movie. i love you guys, but enough already.
-
...Harry truly hates the english language. Anyway, yeah, Gibbons inspired by pic, etc etc. Harry, try purchasing a retarded monkey. You can dictate, he can type. We might start getting somewhere then.
-
You really have to be kidding me if that is what you really think Harry...sheesh...start opening your eyes and really see the world of whats out there...
Stupid shit. -
...And the sex scene. They were both completely fine. Is everyone here a 12 year old fat kid terrified by anything involving sexual arousal or bodily functions. Fucking immature retards.
-
That made no sense Harry. I know you were trying to be cryptic but that was just incomprehensible.
-
we get it there's a movie called the watchmen that is out in the cinema at the moment..sheesh
-
WATCHMEN WAS COOL. AND THAT VIKING PIC WAS GREAT! FUCK THE HATERS ON THE BLUE WANG. GROW UP HOMO PHOBES
-
I didn't hate it or love it... I give it a C... the awkward sex scene... the bad musical choices... the horrible acting. The only person who really shined was Jackie Earle Haley.
-
and cynical talkbackers even ruined that. yay. granted, hairy is an industry shill, but still. whatever.
-
And I NEVER heard of the "Watchmen" until this movie.
-
You get the feeling that ole' Harry doesnt read these talkbacks anymore? Either that or he just likes the abuse. Get your shit together Mr. Knowles, the natives are growing restless
-
He's able to take a fictious characters and an outrageous story and blend in real world facts and history that you just have to admire the way he connected all those dots. Amazing. And that story could only work in 1985. Moving it to present day would have seriously fucked it up.
-
hahhahaa..
-
Had to do it. HAD to.
-
Humor." HAHAHAHAHAHAH that was good. (and let me guess, theres a few missing children involved too)
-
Harry, you're an idiot. Nuff said.

I thought it was funny, Harry
-
Just think of how much time, money, and effort is simply being wasted.

At first I thought this said "Has Harry gone too far...?"
by juansanchez
The answer is yes.
-
not in the comic or the film. Trying to link this to the Watchmen is so fucking dumb. The smily face looks like a retarded kid with a crayon drew it in a worn out van going over a rocky road. the only perfect circle is the outline which is the crator
-
Is Burger King closed? Bored? WTF?
You are a sorry sack of sweaty lard filled skin. This isnt news and it is not cool. -
The horror...
-
holy hell, it's a JOKE. do you really think Harry believes Warner Bros. has time travellers?jesus christ, people need to lighten up.
-
This site is a total fucking joke, you will use any excuse to promote whatever gives you a kick back, you are a fucking casting couch whore, you suck Hollywood's big blue cock, there is no point coming here for movie news, you just simply promote whoever is sticking some free bluray up your big fat ass...your site has become a joke...nerd you maybe, but you're on the leash now...sad fucking site full of shills and bullshitters...I resign and from this point on, I'm not contributing to your pay per click advertising bullshit...you are an asshole whose opinion means nothing, you have proved you will just say 'yes yes yes; to whoever tickles your balls...Fuck you, fuck your stupid ass kissing website and fuck off you greedy fat cock.
-
All this AICN hype over this movie. I consider myself to be quite the cool movie fan, but this Watchmen hype escapes me. I will watch it but as being the movie fan that I am, I'm not really pushed about this. I'm like yeah, I'll watch it, whatever. I'm pretty sure it'll be good but... no big deal. I'm thinking back to my personal life when I missed the whole PIXIES phenomenom. They never really did it for me. Was that my fault or theirs?
-
My god you hit the nail right on the head! Well said. The fat fuck is a sell out. Typical hollywood trash.
-
It can build up crap work, and slaughter movies that are actually good.
-
Or too obvious?
-
Is there a quota for Watchmen headlines to meet by the time opening weekend's over?
-
feel the fucking wrath on this talkback! whoa! Harry, are you reading this shit? do you care? It looks like youve become KING of the bullshitters on this site. Youve lost ALL street cred. Yeah, yeah, we know, youve got $$$ and a nice mail order bride, but the fans here dont RESPECT you anymore. This has building for quite sometime now. Like MANY posters have said, youre items are NOT cool, they are NOT news and all they do is serve your pathetic fat ego, they do NOTHING for the readers, who MADE you what you are! Get out of your fucking wheelchair and start doing some work! Pretend its the late 90's......nuff said
-
Please do not tell me this is the first time you're hearing about the Happy Face Crater.
*smacks head* -
It doesn't have to look like the pin. It's a smiley face on Mars, just like in the comic and in the movie, and it looks just like that. Like I said, I suspect some people missed the face on Mars in the movie.
-
It's just the way the light hits it, and we "think" we're seeing a smile face, because our brains are trying to work out a familiar shape.
-
You're excited about the movie, Harry. But let's be real. In a year you'll look back on these "cool" news stories and realize you were just a sugared-up fanboy all too eager to hit the submit button on a post before really considering whether you had anything interesting to say.
-
I had no idea this existed. Never thought I'd learn something from AICN, so thank you Harry for postig this stroy. And screw off the rest of you deriding him for it.
-
Is it worthy of a newstory? Fuck, no. "Hey, lookee! A decades-old photo which ties into this super awesome movie that just came out." Harry might as well be proclaiming "Hey, look! I'm ignorant!"
The graphic novel has been out for 24 years. Which means that this association with the Happy Face Crater has been known for that long by some segment of the fanbase. To waste readers' time with a bit of trivia just to gush some more about a new movie is just incomprehensible, especialy coming from the guy who's been running this website for 15 years now. -
You assume that all the readers of AICN have read Watchmen for years. I'll admit the gushing is a bit lame. But the story? Not one bit.
-
WTF? "Has Warners Gone Too Far With This Promotion of WATCHMEN?!?!?" Whaaaat?? Stupid dumbass. What kind of stupid question is this?I'm sure Harry is a nice guy but he really is embarrassing and seems to be getting worse.
-
...in their promotion for MISSION TO MARS? There really *is* a face on Mars! Hyuk hyuk hyuk. How did Mickey Mouse do that? How!?!?
If Harry had posted that when MtM came out, would we all be cutting him a break? -
....that as much of an idiot as Harry is...the people in the talkbacks are even worse.
-
in my diarrhea filled toilet bowl this morning. Just thought id share
-
.........harry started paying attention to WATCHMEN around the same time "yoko" started paying attention to U2. which was either too late or too early for either of their opinions to matter very much.

said months ago I hoped Snyder would use updated NASA Galle imag
by g100
Pretty odd that Harry is just finding out about this now. Though I have to say some of the Mars imagery in the Movie is great, some of it.. well.. a bit disappointing and the zoom out which features Galle was not as stunning as it really should have been TBH.
But constantly mentioning Watchmen on the site really ISN'T going to make more people go out and see it. Harry is barking up the wrong tree here I'm afraid. Those who frequent this site are well aware of the Movie.
Besides, if Harry had wanted a superfluous but topical story that vaguely ties in with Watchmen I will now give it to him free of charge. ;-)

MONTEREY (CBS News
A giant Humboldt Squid found along the California coast.
It may seem like something out of a horror movie, but giant squid have invaded key fishing areas in the Pacific, gobbling up everything they can find.
Off the California coast, its been getting harder to catch big fish like salmon — but a whole lot easier to hook a deep sea monster, the Humboldt
Squid.
The population of the Humboldt Squid, which has huge 6-feet-long tentacles and weighs up to 100 pounds, has soared along the California coast line.
The giant Squid's usual territory from Chile to Mexico has expanded dramatically over the last seven years. Once rarely seen off California, they are now strong arming their way toward dominance.
William Gilly of Stanford University said one thing is for sure, the squid are not picky eaters and right now millions of them are consuming whatever they can find off the California coast.
For fisherman, that means the tug on the end of the line may have tentacles instead of fins.
Some marine experts said the one defense against this giant squid invasion may be to eat them as quickly as they are eating everything else. ----
----
CLEARLY Snyder has angered the Giant Squid Gods with his Blasphemy and must now be cowering far from the coast in mortal terror. ;-) -
I say ditto!
-
For those interested.

I picked up a free paper on the bus yesterday and the front pages had fake articles about the vigilante Rorschach and Blake's death.

This is a geek site. We're all geeks. Stop knocking Harry because he posts something like this and out-geeks the lot of us.You're still King Geek, Big H. Ignore the trolls.

It seems to be Aint it Watchmen News at the moment. All this talk over a mediocre film.

...of WATCHMEN? Maybe.

ha, and one day forest gump happened to help coin the phrase: "shit happens."
-
AUSTIN, TX (AP) - It has been announced that Internet movie news site, Ain’t It Cool News, is changing it’s name to Ain’t It Watchmen News. To reflect this change the owner of the sire Harry Knowles is demanding that all forums be completely dedicated to discussing the film the Watchmen and that all registered names be based on characters from the movie or graphic novel, or people involved in making of the film.
Harry Knowles told readers of the site that the name change is to reflect that fact that there is no longer any other stories in film, television, comics or fanboy/geek culture that need to be covered or talked about since the release of the Watchmen. “I mean, it isn’t like there is a film starring Johnny Depp and Christian Bale coming out this summer, or a new movie by Cameron.” Harry Knowles wrote.
Some readers of the site have no welcomed the new direction that Ain’t It Watchmen News (AIWN) is taking. One talkbacker going by the pseudonym ALANMOORES DICKBLOOD wrote, “This is fucking unprofessional” before he was banned by Mr. Knowles.
-
see a jizz-soaked watchmen review on here yet? it just so happens that to run a publication that includes critique AND citing freedom of speech--there happens to be a degree of ass-kissing to sell stories on a product; trust me i know, i wrote some shit for publications myself. so please note: on this site are paid advertisements (money for AICN crew to pay rent), AND general geekish enthusiasm, but no review for the product. could that be that some well-moneyed god fears a negative review from AICN? well, i'm not one to pass immediate judgement; but something is funny here...
-
but you are making lucas look like a fresh faced kid with whiz bang ideas and insight. please retire harry.
and wathcmen was not really all that good. not shocked you loved it though.
-
It's called a ' joke '.
-
how much has warner paid u to promote this movie?
because this is definitely not news about the movie,but just a way to update the news column of the site,with something which will focus,yet again, the visitor's interest in the movie and keep the movie in the frontline as long as its on the cinemas.
in other words,Harry is purely a nd clearly a PR beacon for the movie,and it has nothing to do about him being a geek,fan,cinefil or whatever.he justs advertises the movie for his personal profit. -
--there's also one that looks like Kermit the Frog there-so?

pull out all the stops, due to their lost to Fox. They will be lucky to recoup their investment, let alone receive any profits from this movie.

I'd love to know what the source is for the first part of that video.
Otherwise, I haven't seen a screamer since the late 90's, back on Ebaums. -
And this has to be the most pathetic attempt at a 'news piece', whether intended to be funny or not.
This is truly a new low for this beloved website. In fact, the only reason I come back here is for the coaxial work of Herc, and, perhaps, my nostalgia-tinted glasses.
I try not to believe that this is Harry manifesting what's being paid to him to promote this movie, because, even if it was, it would be an absolutely dire attempt at doing so, and if anything, WB should sue YOU for tainting was has been a fantastic ad-campaign all over the world (some of the stuff we've seen here in London's been brilliant).
I would recommend that the more wordy talkbacks head on over to /film, where news breaks 99% of the time earlier than it does here, and much more intelligent discussions are held. For fuck's sake Harry, you truly are amateur. -
talkbackers**
-
Legally Fox could do it and get some money out of it. But that's short term. Long term, they may have fucked themselves out of a deal with Warner Bros. down the road. I mean, Watchmen was already a two studio movie with Paramount onboard. Sometimes studios have to work together to get movie made. Why generate bad blood? It'll fuck you in the future. It was a bone-headed, greedy move. FAIL.
-
What's all this "Human/Non-Human" stuff? Kinda cree-py...
-
That was dumb. Just plain dumb. Why don't you make sense anymore? Your writing has been incoherent for the past couple weeks. FACE.
-
what is written on this site any longer. If a movie is reviewed as being good be very suspicious. If a movie is reveiwed as being bad then Harry is probably not on the studio payroll. Oh i will celebrate the day when this piece of shit site goes down. Fuck you Harry. Piece of hollywood trash.

Step away from your ComPooter. Turn it off. Go w/ Yoko and explore some of Hunt County Texas, esp. Greenville and Commerce. They'll thank ya for the trip. I liked journey to the Center of the Earth over this.

I think we get that Harry doesn't actually believe Warners did this as a marketing ploy, it's the rambling incoherentness in the post, and the fact this is the 14th fucking article on Watchmen on the front page of this site that get people itchy.

-
I mean you guys are really being harsh on the guy. He's just posting what HE thinks is cool. It doesn't mean you have to fuck with him. So what he's a huge fan and is excited with this film? Good for him!
And honestly, what is with everyone talking about the "blue dong" and that sex scene. What are you people sexually confused? Get with the program, it's a fucking movie. If you don't intend on possibly seeing some nudity (whether it's some CGI penis or a steamy sex scene) then don't go see a rated R movie you retards. It's rated R for a reason. And I keep hearing shit about the sex scene like it's some bad thing. I mean seriously, grow up. It's something normal people do. It's not like there isn't people having sex in every movie that we watch anyway. I'm sure that someone was having sex in Mary Poppins, but just because we didn't see it, it isn't there right? It's a way of life and if people want to film it in there movie then let it be.
I've been coming to this site for years now. Just to check out what's going on every so often and I just recently started reading these "talk-backs" and there are some real assholes on here. I've seen people calling Harry (who I believe is the creator of this site, right?) a retard, fat ass, etc etc etc. Now, if you don't like Harry. Don't fucking come to his site, right?
Watchmen was a really good movie in my opinion. It had everything. Great violence, great acting (with the slight exception of Malin, but she wasn't terrible), a great storyline and a great director who did wonders with 300 and Dawn Of The Dead. He's talented and he knows what he's doing. And he did an amazing job with this movie as he did with the previous movies.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. So stop bashing people about theirs. Stop being so fucking childish. -
I tried to convince myself that it looked like a smiley face, but it didn't. It really looked more like a dead cat I saw once. But that's not even the true horror. The truth is, it really didn't look like anything at all. It's just a smudge of endless limitless blackness. We are alone.

Maybe. AICN? Absolutely. No less than 11 Watchmen references on the front page ranging from news, reviews, comment and opinions.That's fucking ABSURD I care not how 'hot' the property is. Yes, people have been waiting for the film, but christ in a cornchip can you say running something into the fucking GROUND? And this stupid Mars post is the feculent cheery on top of this turd pie, enough is enough! You've already got a dedicated goddamned section to talk about it, fuckin' A gather all your fucking reviews into one thread and give the rest of the world, i.e. those who aren't trying to work "...hurm..." into our vocabularies, a fucking Watchbreak!

-
the problem is that it is apparent that fat ass is getting some type of kickback. That makes this sites reviews of movies very suspect from this point forward. That tard is just another hollywood scumbag that will sell his soul for a buck.
-
...People click on the link and feel like they've wasted, what, 2 minutes of their lives? I've wasted more than that. Chill out, dudes.
Having said that, it's pretty obvious that AICN is owned by Warner Communications, which is owned by Veidt Enterprises.
-
what's with all the harry hate from you whiney emo cunts? ok, so his enthusiasm for watchmen can be a little cringe worthy, is that a fucking crime? are you paying to use the site? does it still not gather almost every fucking cool movie/tv story out there in one easy to view place? some of you fuckers make my blood boil, you piss all over what other people have built up from nothing and then accuse them of selling out. you're fucking leeches, i outta put your head against the bulkhead and blow your frakkin brains out.

enough with watchmen, its just a movie. a story done by a guy with that Bio: "Moore was born in Northampton, England to brewery worker Ernest Moore and printer Sylvia Doreen. He lived in a very poor area, and was expelled from school in 1970 at the age of 17 for dealing LSD, later describing himself as "one of the world's most inept LSD dealers". With his first wife, Phyllis, he had two daughters, Amber and Leah. The couple also had a mutual lover Deborah. In time, Phyllis, Deborah and the two children left Moore. On May 12, 2007, he married Melinda Gebbie, with whom he has worked on several comics. He currently lives in Northampton. He is a vegetarian, an anarchist, a practicing magician and occultist, and he worships a Roman snake-deity named Glycon, which he acknowledges to be a "complete hoax". ---- i think that shows you what a retard alan moore is.

The writing of the article was more mind-blowing than anything else involved. Reeeeal interesting use of the English language. Another feather in Harry's cap.

-
This last two months there have been a whole bunch of huge movie releases, geek-friendly movies, that didn't appear AT ALL on this site. I was amazed at this until I realised that those missing movies are not Warner's. It all makes a lot of sense now. Don't get me wrong, I have no love for the uber-right-wing nazi Fox Studios either, but it is clear that Harry and the other writers on AICN are affiliated with Warners, because they simply ignore interesting movies that aren't connected to their little circle of movie industry buddies.

...and LOVED it, mostly. Watched it in IMAX, with the sound cranked up. Having now seen it, I think I can understand Harry's busting-at-the-seams need to talk about it as much as possible.But Jesus, man, show some professionalism! The good films don't need the extra coverage. Heck, in some ways, oversaturation of news just leads to backlash. And yes, as a previous poster wrote, 11 stories dedicated to mostly fluff talk about a movie that really doesn't need the extra marketing just reeks of kickback, or at least of brown-nosing the studio.

Uh, can I buy some pot from you?

No it is not...just another market to tap. Do the space thing.

His Watchmen poster is in between the mattress. The Silk Spectra cardboard cut out has a hole in it at the V piece. His Archie model kit has a Flesh Light modification. His Night Owl mask is missing a lens. His Black Freighter dvd is in his porn file. And he has a Smiley Face t-shirt with a jizz splash where the blood should be.

Totally amazing event in railway arches under london bridge - complete with around 100 actors in full costume, dancers (that was me), roller girls, Dave Gibbons, and the Comedian arriving on a F'ing TANK!
Check the 'Future Cinema' flickr set for wonderful pix... massive thank you to everyone who made it happen! -

Little did we humans know that when we learned to smile--
by the reluctant austinite
--we were actually just learning to promote "Watchmen."

Got ya!!!

Harry has been absolutely slammed in this TB and yet I don't see any black boxes from him full of insults and condescension. In fact, I never do.

This once great website has been reduced to a Twitter Account for one Harold Knowles.
true shame. -
Its simple, really. Harry doesn't read his site. He posts, checks out the first four comments, and moves on.

Zack Snyder, the least visionary director working today. Makes Michael Bay and McG look like fucking Kubrick and Kurosawa. Instead of movies he makes badly-acted motion comics with random Ipod shuffle soundtracks.
