I’ll look down, and whisper “No.”
Another Watchmen teaser one-sheet, following on from the one I posted lasted week. This actually reminds me slightly of one of the teasers for The Dark Knight, in which The Joker is standing in the streets of Gothan, the buildings towering over him, his back turned.
I love the fact that teaser trailers and artwork can be uncompromising in this way, using copy lines, compositions and artistic styles that would never make it onto the final signature marketing material. It’s a chance for the film-makers to tap into the growing fervour of the fans, and to spread a little intrigue amongst the broader audience about to discover Watchmen for the very first time.
The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout “Save us!”…and I’ll look down, and whisper “No.” RORSCHACH
