Buy Or Don’t Buy

Adding some nerd enthusiasm makes anything better. Movies, books, television shows, phones. Throw in some obsession and let the freak fan flag fly!

The latest nerd infused project? The Watchmen. Graphic novel turned motion picture is due to hit theaters 03.06.09. (That’s even a mathematical equation! How nerdy!) What I like most about these kinds of releases is that you feel like you are part of the club. A member in this society world. And for Watchmen, I’m not a faker either. I read it.

There is all kinds of viral material for the Watchmen on the web. The most recent video that appeared is featuring the Keene Act. (For you non-nerds, that act changed the way the masked heroes roamed the streets).

The same account that posted that video leads to a flickr account, twitter profile and Facebook profiles.

If you want to get hip to it check out any of the movie websites:

• I Watch The Watchmen, which has all the viral tools you need to support the film
• Cruel and Unusual Productions; The Film Production digital site
• The New Frontiersman, the viral affiliate to the website. They write from that time and place P.O.V.
• Watchmen Movie, Warner Brother’s official website, containing flip clips and usual movie promo stuff

You excited yet? At least I have a Halloween costume idea ready…
