Watchmen: New Photos, EW Cover, Walkie-Talkie CG a...

Since the Watchmen trailer broke earlier today, the web has been going Watchmen crazy. First up, Watchmen graces the cover of the Comic Con edition of Entertainment Weekly (seen above), and is accompanied by a feature article with a bunch of new photos (like the photo below) from the film. Read that article now on EW.com.



Meanwhile, MTV sat down with director Zack Snyder who points out some of the secrets in the trailer. For example, in a sequence where Ozymandias avoids an assassination attempt, the MPAA forced Snyder to digitally remove the gun out of the hand of an assassin. Apparently, the MPAA prohibits any shot of a gun pointed directly at the audience. Snyder had the gun replaced with a walkie-talkie, a reference to Steven Spielberg’s 2002 rerelease of E.T. Check out the shot below to see the digitally added walkie-talkie.
