Comic Book Resources hat ein schönes Interview mit Production Designer Dominic Watkins, der an der Verfilmung von Watchmen gearbeitet hatte, bevor Zack Snyder das Ruder übernahm und Paul Greengrass (The Bourne Supremacy) noch für die Regie vorgesehen war. Dazu gibt’s haufenweise Watchmen-Conceptart.
“I think from the point of comic book enthusiasts, we might have pissed off some people, but even some of the real purists were pissed off that Snyder’s wasn’t close enough to the original. I just thought it wasn’t anything original, and ours was going to be an original take on it while trying to do as much justice to the graphic novel as possible.
“It would’ve been done a little bit documentary-style, with a little news reporting mixed in. I feel like that would’ve been really interesting to see it as real-feeling as possible. Obviously, Doctor Manhattan was always going to be the biggest challenge to that. When there’s a 50-foot blue man, it’s hard to cinematically make it feel real. I felt they actually did a good job with that in Snyder’s.”
