Watchmen (What to Know)

Zack Snyder's latest trailer for "300" contains a first glimpse from his upcoming film "Watchmen" based on the bible of comics from legendary writer Alan Moore.

"Watchmen" takes place during the time when super-heroes are banned, and one group of costumed heroes must resume their old identities & work together to save a doomed Earth from a mysterious force.

The picture that's featured in the trailer, which is above, is of Rorshach, the main character in the "Watchmen" comic books. Wearing the inkblot-like mask, he considers his true face, Rorschach has continued his one-man battle against crime long after superheroes became both detested and illegal. Rorschach’s views on good and evil are clearly defined and evil must be violently punished. He has alienated himself from the rest of society to achieve these aims.
