Click the image above to watch this thing of beauty.  The late-era Smashing Pumpkins that plays over the trailer works surprisingly well.  Too bad the same song was used in Batman and Robin.  Hopefully this film doesn’t meet a similar fate!  Man, 2009 can’t come soon enough!

*Update*
Apple has the trailer up in glorious quicktime!

    Well, hopefully the Dark Knight tides us over for at least a while!

    Come on people! Let’s talk about this trailer! I can’t wait to start shoving this graphic novel to people who haven’t read it yet.

    There are some downright beautiful shots throughout that trailer (i.e. The Comedian getting tossed through the window, the Dr. Manhattan reveal, Silk Spectre walking down the stairs, every Rorschach shot, etc.). This trailer just completely works 100% as pure fanboy service.

    Holy crap that gave me a nerdgasm.

    Alan Moore is awesome – too bad Hollywood screwed up the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. If you haven’t read Watchmen by now, you are an idiot.
