KS: I saw it [WATCHMEN] once when they had out of something like 500 visual FX shots, they only had 10% done. Next time I saw it, I think they had 15% done. That’s the one think I haven’t really said. I watched that movie without all the FX shots done. Through most of the movie, Billy Crudup – even as Dr. Manhattan – looks like Billy Crudup. And still that movie works like gangbusters, even though it’s not completely fleshed out and finished visually speaking with the digital FX. That being said, when I watched the movie, the biggest impression I walked away with was, This could totally be Pulp Fiction to some degree. For the mainstream audience, when Pulp Fiction came along, they said, Okay, I know crime thrillers. I know the genre, kind of. But this is a movie that spins it with this left of center view. With Watchmen, you’ve got people very familiar with the comic-book format of the movie, but it takes this left of center view of it. People who love the comic book are definitely going to go in droves, but I think they’re going to get a lot of people who would never see this movie – based on the buzz factor. It’s the goods, man. It’s a really smart, intelligent film. It’s just like reading the book, but a movie.

Man, “Watchmen” just sounds better and better every time Kev mentions it.

As a bonus, Collider was also given the first set of actual clips from “Porno” — This isn’t just a re-hash of the trailers or commercials, but actual (edited) clips from the movie! Visit this multimedia page for the trailer, FOUR NEW CLIPS, a behind the scenes clip, and stills. The movie’s still 12 days away, but stuff like this always makes the wait a little bit easier. Enjoy.
