WB has released the final Watchmen poster:

And an article on Watchmen’s R rating. I’m just linking to it since there are major spoilers here:

This is a great shot of the Comedian in Vietnam, looking disturbingly happy…

Here’s the soundtrack and original score listing for Watchmen. I love this song list. I’m a huge Leonard Cohen fan and am very protective of Hallelujah and hate to see it overused. His version is by far the best (please no flaming, Jeff Buckley fans. And Rufus W. fans, please! don’t even go there).

I wonder what scene it’ll be in. I have a good feeling it’ll be used well .  And since Leonard Cohen was cheated out of all his money by his manager, he could use the royalties!

Music From The Motion Picture Watchmen track-listing is as follows:

1. Desolation Row – My Chemical Romance
2. Unforgettable – Nat King Cole
3. The Times They Are A-Changin’ – Bob Dylan
4. The Sound Of Silence – Simon & Garfunkel
5. Me & Bobby McGee – Janis Joplin
6. I’m Your Boogie Man – KC & The Sunshine Band
7. You’re My Thrill – Billie Holiday
8. Pruit Igoe & Prophecies – The Philip Glass Ensemble
9. Hallelujah – Leonard Cohen
10. All Along The Watchtower – Jimi Hendrix
11. Ride of the Valkyries – Budapest Symphony Orchestra
12. Pirate Jenny – Nina Simone*

Here’s a Youtube of Leonard singing it on some cheesy European variety show:

When “Watchmen” adapts Alan Moore’s uniquely dark vision of the superhero genre to film this year, audiences would do well to prepare themselves to see some of the ugliest sides of human behavior that come with it. In the “Watchmen” comics, one of the heaviest flinch-inducing moments comes from a flashback scene involving the rape of Minutemen member Silk Spectre by her teammate, The Comedian. The actor portraying The Comedian, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, confirmed to MTV that director Zack Snyder did not overlook the event’s significance. “It was a three-day process shooting that particular scene, and it was hard,” Morgan told MTV News. “It was three of the hardest days of filming I have ever had to do. It was really very violent.”

Embedded in the colorful pages of the comic, the sequence stands out as a moment when “Watchmen” really broke away from the safety-netted standards of normal monthly comics. As Morgan explained, decisions had to be made as far as how much weight to give the rape in the movie.

“When you’re looking at the comic book you only get a couple panels so there is a lot of stuff there that needs to be filled in,” he said, “so we fill in the blanks there between three and four panels, and it turns out to be one hell of a violent scene. And it’s all intact, [Hooded Justice] comes in and interrupts the attempted rape — it’s all there. We stayed very loyal to it, and I haven’t actually seen the scene yet, but I did see a piece of playback when we were filming it and it’s a lot.”

Asked if he thinks the general public is ready to see a rape scene pulled from the pages of a comic book, Morgan expressed faith in Snyder’s dedication to the material.

“I know certainly the fans of the novel are [ready] and now it’s a matter of reaching an audience that isn’t familiar with the novel,” said Morgan. “I think Zack is the guy who is going to stay true to the novel and be able to reach a main stream audience as well. If they are ready for it? I don’t know, we will see. It’s rated ‘R’ for a reason.”
