There's no cure for the horrible, brain-melting insanity of the G.I. Joe movie, which clearly would rape your eye sockets if it could take corporeal form in its relentless quest to eradicate joy from the world of the living. However, you can ease a bit of the pain by checking a few new awesome Watchmen pics from Empire and Total Film magazines. Above we have Nite Owl's Antarctica suit, which is quite...ahem..cool.
And this is just a new smoking hot pic of Silk Spectre II. Two more after the jump.
Here we have the "Axis of Evil," which I assume fights the Minutemen in a montage or in historical documents or something similar in the flick. Do you know how we know they're evil? Because of they way their suits accentuate their genitalia. Seriously, I thought Nazis had more class than that; spacemen, of course, are known sluts.
And last but not least is this neat cover to the Watchmen comic-to-film book, hitting February 6th. This is where Total Film got its images from, so be on the lookout if you're interested in more. (Via FilmDrunk)

The problem I have with Nite Owl's snow costume is that he looks more like a cobra than an owl.
As for Silk Spectre... Jesus, she's so hot.

The forties bad guys are so awesomely retro!
I know Moore might have his misgivings but I can't help but feel some serious love has gone into the details of this movie.

Pierre, I'm not sure what you mean. Both Sally and Lauren operated as the Silk Spectre. It has been common in comics to assign roman numerals to characters whose names have been used before, whether the characters were related or not.
I doubt Laurie will be referred to as "Silk Spectre II" by Nite Owl II (as opposed to Mason, who is Nite Owl I) or Ozymandias in dialogue, but it makes it easier to refer to her as such in print.

Well, I'm pleasantly relieved by the split-screen of Rorschach at the bottom, there—he looks appropriately worn and weatherbeaten to my eyes. A lot of the other costumes have looked a little too...well, polished. A little too pretty and clean for outfits that vigilantes put together themselves out of pre-synthetic materials and then went running around beating people in alleys in. But maybe that's just 'cause of the resolution of the photos I've seen, and the fact that they're all from photoshoots...I dunno. The movie will tell.
And Spaceman clearly looks like Daniel Craig. :)

I'm digging the Nite-Owl snowsuit. The comic one looked...a little silly.

I am not sure about the Night Owl's Antarctica suit, granted it looks better than in the comic, but the mask looks like a modded paintball mask, those arm slits seem a bit impractical, and it does not look like his legs would stay warm enough to fend off frostbite.
Wow you are right about the old villains, Holy Codpiece y'all play nice, it's all fun and games till someone loses an eye. The nazi dude looks like he stepped off the stage after doing a matinee performance of "Springtime For Hitler".
I was a bit disappointed that the olive oil baron did not have a tommy gun.
The space guy is so retro looking, those shoulder pads are a nice touch, but his raygun is a little puny. I guess it is not the size of the gun but how you use it.
Yes she does look hot. All I have to say is.
Please Silk Spectre, cuff me, don't be gentle! I have done many evil things! Many many many evil things...........

To Jon :
Yep, my bad, sorry...
I confused the names 'Silhouette' and 'Silk Spectre' in an act of over-confidence.

Even if this movie some how destroys our holy bible of a comic, at least we can watch Silk Spectre and hopefully reduce the blow.
My god, it's just unfair how good she looks.
Spaceman are total sluts, ask Adam Strange!
