Warner has just sent out an e-mail alerting press and retailers that they plan to bring “Watchmen: The Complete Motion Comic” to Blu-ray Disc on March 3rd in anticipation of the upcoming full-length motion picture Directed by Zack Synder which will open in theaters 3 days later on March 6th. The release will include a Digital Copy of all 12 episodes of the motion comic, an exclusive Sneak Peek at the “Prison Break” scene from the upcoming “Watchmen” motion picture and also preview (by that time trailer) of the upcoming Blu-ray Disc release of “Wonder Woman“. We currently don’t have tech specs on the release aside from those regarding bonus mentioned above.
UPDATE: There is now a PRE-ORDER listing available over at Amazon.com with a $24.99 price tag.

They put an MSRP of $35 on what most other studios would release as DVD extras? Warner has really dropped off in the past year, what a shame
So this is like the thing on the Incredible Hulk but with an audiobook attached to it?
I’ll save the cash and buy the comic then see the motion picture. Do they really think people will buy this?
BTW – I can’t wait to see the Watchmen movie, shots from the trailer look jaw dropping.

I agree about the trailer charle, but I actually like this motion comic. I saw the first episode through a podcast. If you’re a fan of the graphic novel you’d like it.

Here’s a better view of the cover art.

I will probably rent this if it’ll be available in Netflix. I, too cannot wait to see the film. I’m only halfway on the graphic novel. Gotta finish before the film comes out!

So it’s not like some lame power point?
I think I’m going to pick up the graphic novel this weekend.
I want to find out what Warner did to get Fox to ease up. Glad they’re done with that. I have my fingers crossed that they were arguing over Narnia, and now Fox will be allowed to win the franchise.
