Most people say Deadpool was the 1st R-Rated comic book adaptation. But for me Watchmen holds that title. It's one of the best comic book movies out there.
@@fernandonobobadillaenrquez3642 exactly what I was going to say. Sin City is basically a shot for shot recreation of the comic, and a fucking solid movie on top of that.
It's becasue if they record at normal speed, the actor would have to actually punch the other actor. As you see in 1:33 the punches are fake so nobody gets hurt. In the intro scene they had to show every detail, that's why they are acting in slow-mo
Also because high speed cameras are expensive even today. to get something that could shoot in a high FPS so it would have a smooth replay back then would have been a huge cost
Watchmen was pretty underrated at the time. I was always confused how some people disliked it for sticking too close to the source material while others disliked it for straying too far away from the source material. I think that Snyder found just the right balance. I'm not really a fan of Snyder's more recent movies but Watchmen is one of my favorites!
God, this is why i love Snyder. His movies are so artistic, he has his actors that do their fighting stunts to a level, his action choreography is epic (no shaky camera scenes like Nolan or Marvel movies), and his visuals are so god like. Such an amazing director. I want more from him. Watchmen, MoS, 300, and BvS are my favorites so far. I've watched them to death, and i still can't get enough.
sєηd ηudєs BvS was fuckin epic. What exactly did he ruin? Don't give me that style over substance or Martha bullshiit. It was a great comic book movie.
tsuki97 I was actually talking about both (as in Owlman and Nite Owl), but thanks for the correction anyway. And I haven't really been reading up on webpages or videos where people listed the similarities, just went and saw the movie and noticed it myself. So yeah, it's pretty cool.
1:00 That’s crazy. I thought they shot the opening scenes at normal speed with a crazy expensive, high FPS HD camera and just reduced the playback in post... but they really moved in slow motion on set! :D
Zack Snyder stands in the line of one the most under appreciated & underrated film makers of all time. He mesmerized us with 300 & then doubled it with Watchmen. This movie making scene is a proof of how much he is involved in every aspect of the movie & not just treated it as another money making opportunity sadly which the movie studios have resorted to in the present days. I heartly wish He makes a comeback & that His work is genuinely recognized.
Still the best superhero movie of all time ever!!! Thank you Zack Snyder what you gave to us. We will never forget. Peace to all. #ReleaseTheSnyderCut #ZackSnydersJusticeLeague
She may not be the best actor, but props to Malin Åkerman for doing her own stunts. Given the way her hair flies in front of her face I always assumed a stunt double stepped in for the fight scenes.
They actually did the same to Henry Cavill, sort of. While the fire on him in The oil rig rescue was cgi, the fire surrounding him was real and they put the flame retardant gel on him. Apparently it was so hot that when he finished the seconds long shot of walking through the fire, the gel had dried up and cracked.
I dont understand why people hate snyder view of directing any movie....i like all hiss movies especially this one regardless i never knew that its a graphic novel adaptation. But i loved first time i see it..

Punisher
Man of Steel YESS! It’s pretty incredible.
Love the two mentioned, but i think it was Blade.
Blade
Actually it was The Crow. But I agree that this movie is fantastic!
Watchmen is still probably the best and also most underrated comic book film ever. I class it next to the Dark Knight trilogy.
What about Sin City?
@@fernandonobobadillaenrquez3642 exactly what I was going to say. Sin City is basically a shot for shot recreation of the comic, and a fucking solid movie on top of that.
Definitely underrated, but not in same league as any of nolans batman films
@@hiderz watchmen is better
Winter Soldier was great as well, along with Constantine
1:00 - I didn't know that some of the slow-motion scenes were made by actors acting slowly.
It's becasue if they record at normal speed, the actor would have to actually punch the other actor. As you see in 1:33 the punches are fake so nobody gets hurt. In the intro scene they had to show every detail, that's why they are acting in slow-mo
Also because high speed cameras are expensive even today. to get something that could shoot in a high FPS so it would have a smooth replay back then would have been a huge cost
Before this video I thought the same
@@lucastrevisan4970 well they did use high speed camera in the scene where Rorschach tries to escape from police arrest.
such an underrated film. beautiful cinematography.

Agreed
Sucks Zack Snyder doesn't get the recognition he deserves
Who needs recognition when you have awesone fans
True
@@tamla9875 also true
I love the part in the beginning where he is adjusting where the framed pic is sitting in the shot. every last detail.
He duz now.
God, this is why i love Snyder.

Good Lord you really like his films? Yikes
@@dan-mb2ne any trouble kid
This was such a great movie. God Bless Zack Snyder. The man is an artist.
Nd O He really fucked up Batman v Superman :(
sєηd ηudєs nope. Made an excellent movie. The ultimate edition is his movie.
BvS Wasn't that bad. 90% of the hate is all bandwagon
sєηd ηudєs BvS was fuckin epic. What exactly did he ruin? Don't give me that style over substance or Martha bullshiit. It was a great comic book movie.
Nd O agreed, I liked justice league but it kould have ben better if the studio didn't butt in and just let the man wurk.
I watched this film over 10 times, it's perfect.
Wow they really set the prison guy on fire lol
Was really hoping they'd let that clip play until they put him out haha
That's not CGI folks, hes actually on fire.
Cherry Stone he was a buff stuntman just what who they needed to play the part. Pretty cool though.
Amazing
Breathtaking. Seeing the comic come to life pane by panel gave me chills. I dont mind the ending change anymore.
ninjaraph it made more sense, and was less cheesy than the novel
yes, the ending in the original comic is so weird.
Huh, never noticed how similar Batfleck's Justice League (2017) Cowl/Goggle combo is similar to Owlman's...
**nite owl. yeah lot of people mentioned that :-/
tsuki97 I was actually talking about both (as in Owlman and Nite Owl), but thanks for the correction anyway. And I haven't really been reading up on webpages or videos where people listed the similarities, just went and saw the movie and noticed it myself. So yeah, it's pretty cool.
Because Nite Owl is intended like parody on Bruce Wayne/Clark Kent;)
That's an Easter Egg
Read Leatherwing comic.
Billy Crudup was perfect as Manhattan.
I thought it was a tiny Manhattan at 3:53
lol hahaha
ruclips.net/video/MMiKyfd6hA0/видео.html
Easily the best comic book movie ever
Justice League should have been this passionately made and well casted. Shame.
Officer Dibbles it was until WB fucked Snyder hard
We finally gettin it
Your wish has been granted
The practical effects are just... wow
Wooow all the practicle effect I just took for CGI/post production.. All new respect for this film
Loved The Watchmen. It literally still holds up till today; which is insane.
One of the greatest films I myself has ever seen. Super hero movies just aren't this good anymore. No not even Infinity War.
Doug Foster infinity war was good, but just in a different level and type.
Back when Zack Snyder was underrated
Remember that time?
He's still greatly underrated, one of the best directors working today
Ah.... NO
Still is. BvS was a great film
Todd Garver Are you serious? HAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA
DC screwed him over. They forced him to work with a terrible script. He supposedly took that stress home and it hurt his family.
The most underrated comic book movie
Underrated actors. Underrated movie.
1:00
That’s crazy. I thought they shot the opening scenes at normal speed with a crazy expensive, high FPS HD camera and just reduced the playback in post... but they really moved in slow motion on set! :D
Great film! The Watchmen: The Ultimate Cut is the version I follow.
me personally, this is Zack Snyder's best work!
the greatest comic book movie EVER

Watchmen and V for Vendetta the best superhero movies tbh
Comedian about to be in The Boys can’t wait
WATCHMEN WAS REALLY GOOD I LOVED IT I WATCHED IT ALMOST ALL THE TIME
This mvie is a modern goddamn classic for me!
lol i like how Rorshach got up the building
Malin Akerman is unbelievably hot.
Patrick Bateman terribly miscast though
I think it suits her well, she has that sad beauty type and it conveys greatly with the character
She may not be the best actor, but props to Malin Åkerman for doing her own stunts. Given the way her hair flies in front of her face I always assumed a stunt double stepped in for the fight scenes.
The making of a masterpiece
hope he gets this freedom he got in making watchmen .. #restorethesnydercut
Dr. Manhatttan looked great for 2009
This is the only Superhero movie that is comparable to the Dark Knight series.
1:31 I love the look on that face 😂🤣
Dr Manhattan behind the scenes - Dr QR Code
So, Billy Crudup was in Automan, Tron and Watchmen
themexguy2011 and Barry Allen father in J.L.
The way he moves at 4:11 is so uncanny
best Zack movie
Mae que jeta.... Lo ví en comentarios de Varas Ticas xD y me lo encuentro aquí
@@NeallyRigger873 soy yisus ando en todo lado
What I wouldn't do to see every scene like this
This gives me chills. This is the best comic book movie. Periodt.
Of any movie deserved a 4 hour cut it was this one.
From this cinematic piece of art to Rebel Moon... What a tragedy, man.
He'll come back stronger than before. Every artist has to fail to become the very best of themselves : )
2:27 what is the name of that song? Is amazing.
Sounds like a Phillip Glass piece.
Will try to find out and update message. I like it too!
@Noise Pollution no, sorry
Mate, we need more Watchmen BTS. Please upload the other ones...
4:43 lol Dr. Fathattan
Tron, he fights for the users xd
I still can't believe this movie was made in 2009,fucking masterpiece
hail snyder
Dr. Manhatan came out of Tron, confirmed!
such a beautiful movie
The greatest superhero film ever made, the detail is staggering
Sin city and watchmen are visually stylised it’s makes a strong impact on story
Best DC's product
I LOVE ZACK SNYDER!
music in the background, ironic
Esta película fue realmente utópica. Cuando la vi por primera vez desde la primer escena me dí cuenta que estaba ante algo totalmente único.
Emotionally art....
This movie is a masterpiece
TheCarlaGugino "SilkSpectre" Vignette.
its so cool to watch how this is all done.
Manhattan's light suit looks like something out of Tron!
Here is my boy Jack doing his magic
3:14 Zack Snyder's son got slapped.
Hallelujah, Hallelujah....
Where can I get the piano version of the song playing in this video?
BTS to one of my favourite movies of all time
Hallelujah!!!
Watchmen is the best Rated R superhero film ever!
One of my all time favorite movies
Love you Zack Snyder❤
Snyder ♥️
This was as good as watchmen's adaptation could get tbh
Not gonna lie, that sex scene between Silk Specter and Nite Owl was pretty dam hot and I loved the music lol.
How to squat like slav with style 3:20
0:56 is that cpt America ???
metropolis i guess
Wov they really set that guy on fire.Whit no ptotective clothes.Crazy man crazy.
The liquid they put on him at 2:17 protect him from getting burned.
They actually did the same to Henry Cavill, sort of. While the fire on him in The oil rig rescue was cgi, the fire surrounding him was real and they put the flame retardant gel on him. Apparently it was so hot that when he finished the seconds long shot of walking through the fire, the gel had dried up and cracked.
best film I've ever seen
It's my first DC movie
This is simply fantastic, at least to me it was…sure people may hold a different opinion but I liked it, it’s simply just fantastic
one of the best movies, this is how dc movies should be, but probably is just that their other characters suck
Man, i love that movie!
Silk Spectre is beautiful
I love this movie so much
not sure why no one mentioned cool physical form of actors (especially Spectre) - fight scenes look great, and they're not using stuntmen
JL Snyder Cut's first teaser also has Hallelujah (Leonard Cohen) as a background song. is that song Snyder's favorite of all time?
Very classy
2:25 I don't understand how the man on fire avoided being injured. He seems really shirtless. 2:25.
I thiink they made him fireproof with some liquid
Best comic movie ever
Hallelujah
I dont understand why people hate snyder view of directing any movie....i like all hiss movies especially this one regardless i never knew that its a graphic novel adaptation. But i loved first time i see it..
This Film Is Released Too Early
2:26 do stunt performers actually get lit on fire while shirtless? How do they survive?
ComradeSam1994 they put a slime like substance and if makes you somewhat fireproof for a short period
How did they set the guy on fire?
Hail lord Snyder
