Plenty of big news came out of this weekend's San Diego Comic-Con, including the first clip for Watchmen Chapter I, Warner Bros. Animation's R-Rated adaptation of Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' iconic graphic novel.
That divisive CG animation style is on full display as Dr. Manhattan is welcomed to The Benny Anger Show. He's confronted by several angry audience members who demand the all-powerful superhero answer for the supposed role he may have played in the people he's crossed paths with over the years being diagnosed with cancer.
As all of this is happening, we see Nite Owl and Silk Spectre - in their civilian guises - fending off an attack from criminals. Everything we see looks like the graphic novel and, unsurprisingly, Zack Snyder's 2009 Watchmen movie (which itself was a near shot-for-shot remake of the source material).
With that in mind, we can't help but wonder what...

Rorschach is back on the case.
Matthew Rhys (“The Americans”), Katee Sackhoff (“The Mandalorian”), Titus Welliver (“Lost”), Michael Cerveris (“The Gilded Age”) and Troy Baker (“The Last of Us”) are among the voice actors cast in “Watchmen Chapter I,” the new animated feature adaptation of Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons’ seminal graphic novel. The two-part film — directed by Warner Bros. Animation veteran Brandon Vietti and adapted by comic J. Michael Straczynski — was first announced at San Diego Comic-Con in 2023, but no details about the cast and filmmakers had been revealed until Wednesday, when the official trailer for the project first premiered.
Set in an alternative world in which costume vigilantes are real, “Watchmen” has been hailed as a masterpiece since it debuted in 1986 and challenged the nature and morality of superhero storytelling. Rhys will voice Dan Dreiberg (aka Nite Owl), Sackhoff will voice Laurie Juspeczyk (aka Silk Spectre), Welliver will...

The first trailer for Watchmen Chapter I has been released, and with that comes the full voice cast for Warner Bros. Animation's R-Rated adaptation of Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' iconic graphic novel.
It's also been confirmed today, courtesy of IGN (who have also shared cover art for the He release), that the movie will debut on Digital on August 13, with a 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray release following on August 27.
As with Zack Snyder's 2009 movie, it looks like the comic has come to life, begging the question of what this latest version will deliver that its live-action predecessor didn't. The Man of Steel helmer did take some liberties with the source material, though, so perhaps this version will be even more faithful.

If you were as disappointed in Watchmen as I am, you might have felt inclined to avoid any of its permutations trickling out to DVD. Say, this Tales of the Black Freighter release. Especially since Zack Snyder is planning on releasing a big ultimate cut on DVD down the line that would have the Watchmen movie intercut with the animated Tales of the Black Freighter, bookended by scenes of the two Bernies (fans of the book would know who they are) that are missing from both the theatrical version and this DVD. If you do so, however, you’ll miss out on the real treat of this DVD release.
The disc contains two features: the 25-minute Black Freighter and the 40-minute mockumentary Under the Hood. I’m not sure why Black Freighter gets the first billing on the cover, because Under the Hood is easily the better feature and the...
