There's a lot to like about the latest "Watchmen" video journal to appear on the 'Net, including some great new footage that not only features a 40-foot, glowing Dr. Manhattan working in his laboratory, but also a quick peek at everyone's favorite right-wing vigilante, Rorschach, marveling at the aforementioned naked, blue-skinned giant.
The video, which you can watch over on SciFi.com, also provides a visual companion to our earlier post about bringing Dr. Manhattan to life on the screen, including a look at the impressive (dare we say, "Tron"-like) motion-capture suit actor Billy Crudup used to play the atom-manipulating Manhattan. Among the many glowing, signal-sending apparatuses strapped to the mo-cap suit were even a pair of glowing lights strapped to the sole of Crudup's boots -- used to simulate the glow on the floor when Dr. Manhattan takes a step.
Now that is the sort of attention to detail we like to see, folks.
What do you think about the new footage, folks? Does Dr. Manhattan look believable? And what about that suit?
