CATCH THE WATCHMEN VIRUS
01.22.09Watchmen (most recent trailer here), which opens March 6th, recently released this fake news report with fake reporter Jim Sizemore on “10 years of Dr. Manhattan” (Billy Crudup). It’s great if you like stuff that wasn’t important enough to put in the movie. I like how they can mention two ex-presidents and call them by their real names, but have to make up a fake TV station. What, are the real ones going to sue? “NBC is outraged at this vicious slander. We resent the implication that we would be involved in superhero stories, even if we did exist in a fictional faux reality where superheroes did exist.”

A big blue doctor? Named after an island? That’s crazy talk.
They should have used FOX news, they’re used to making shit up and passing it off as journalism.
Hey, Vince, I forgot to send you the <a href=”http://www.hollyscoop.com/award-shows/2009-oscar-nominations-list_19073.aspx”Oscar noms cuz I figured you already saw them by now. RDJ got a supporting actor nom for Tropic Thunder.

Eh, you’ll get my joke in a few days.
WATCHMEN UPDATE: So, I finally finished the Watchmen book. Not bad. The ending was cool. Once Chong Li started losing, he threw sand in the Watchmen’s eyes which blinded them. After a lot of moaning and bitching, the Watchmen dug down deep into their psyche and remembered all the training they recieved. Then, without the power of sight, that blue dude whips Li’s ass with a bunch of spinning kicks. At least I think that was how it went. I kind of got distracted. Bloodsport was on TBS and I hadn’t seen it since last Sunday.
If you gentlemen will excuse me, I will be away for the next 30 to life as I will be rape-killing the families of the Academy voters.
Shortly after his stint as a fake newsman, Jim Sizemore went on to shoot fake porn videos to support his very real meth addiction.
I caught the watch men virus in high school. I still think it’s hereditary.
10 Years of Dr. Manhattan, A.K.A. How long we’ve been reading stories about this movie.
This is really unbelievable, far-fetched, sci-fi. When was the last time you saw a bald TV anchorman?
Shia Leboeuf has the “Watching Men” virus.
I wonder if anyone else has the Watch Men virus?
I caught the “Walkman virus” in the 80s but I got better. Now I have the “Ipod illness.”
I was in Tijuana when I caught the Watchmeng Virus.
I have a disease that makes me constantly have to check the time on cheap timepieces. It’s caused by the Swatchmen Virus.
George Clooney returning to ER? I won’t watch this unless it’s George Clooney related.
This video takes me back. i remember turning in Coke bottles for the refund and getting a pack of Kool’s with the money i made from them, and i was only 5 years old at the time. i wish my kids could do this for me too, but since they can’t, i just use them for Mormon bait.
