Who’s watching the ‘Watchmen’ trailer? Well, just about every comic book geek who has been nervously awaiting the adaptation of Alan Moore’s ground-breaking, immensely popular graphic novel.

Directed by Zack Snyder, whose ’300′ and ‘Dawn of the Dead’ were both enjoyable popcorn flicks, this will be one of the most ambitious comic book films ever made if it stick to the source material as closely as it appears to. Love the relatively star-free cast (except for the great Russell Hammond of course), and the dark yet obviously hyper-real look of the photography.

And no, that’s not Robert Downey Jnr playing the Comedian, but it does look a little like him in the trailer.
