Watchmen in Legal Trouble

The new movie coming out March 2009 called Watchmen is in a whole mess of legal trouble right now. A federal judge has denied Warner Brothers’ motion to dismiss Fox’s lawsuit regarding the rights to distribute Watchmen. That could mean a delayed release for the movie.
A federal judge has denied a Warner Bros motion to dismiss 20th Century Fox’s legal battle over the rights to develop, produce and distribute a film based on the graphic novel Watchmen. This is huge Hollywood news because Warner Bros plans to release on March 2009 its highly anticipated big-screen version of the popular comic book written by Alan Moore and illustrated by Dave Gibbons.
Let’s hope that the movie still comes out and I hope a deal is made or something. There was one other superhero movie that was sent to limbo and was never seen again and that was The Fantastic Four movie from 1994. Course it did look horrible, but in 1994 it would have been pretty cool. Have a look at the trailer after the jump.

I was expecting something pure trash. I was delighted to find a really cool movie. It's 28 Days meets Road Warrior. The special effects were excellent. A worthy rental. - John

Not the best spoof movie I've seen, but it did have a few laught out loud moments. I probably would wait until it hits television though. - John

As spoof movies go, this was one of the best I've seen. Maybe it's because I'm a comic nut, but I liked it a lot. - John
