Tales of the Black Trailer--I Mean, Freighter
Topless Robot — ... it is, boys--the first look at the Tales of the Black Freighter animation, due on DVD on March 24th. While Watchmen fans know what they're getting, of course, I can't help but wonder what the mass audiences will think they're going to get, because I'm pretty they won't be expecting a tale of one dude on a corpse-raft occasionally fighting a shark but mostly going bat-shit crazy. They may be a little disappointed, frankly. But I'm looking forward to it. (Via MTV) ...

Animated trailer for TALES OF THE BLACK FREIGHTER premieres! It's sharktacularly awesome!
Ain't It Cool News - The best in movie, TV, DVD, and comic book news. — ... But with that idea came concern that if the production couldn't afford to do it live-action that the animation wouldn't be top of the line. Now that I've seen the below-linked trailer, all my fears are put to bed. It looks sharp, it looks beautiful and it looks badass. And Gerard Butler's voice seems perfectly suited for the material. Is it just me or does this remind you of a smoother AEON FLUX-type animation? Can't wait to see all this come together! We're less than a month away! MTV has the premiere of the trailer here! Make sure you click on the 720p High Def link below ...

Trailer For Tales Of The Black Freighter
TheBadandUgly.com — ... Black Frieghter (and “Under The Hood” a superheor biography that is excerpted in the graphic novel) as a DVD and eventual “complete” directors cut of the film, which will intercut “Hood” and “Frieghter” into the overall Watchmen arc, just like the graphic novel. It’s a ballsy move, and I love that Warners is trusting Snyder to calm the fans in this way. Check out the trailer under the cut or the 720p Hi-Def version by CLICKING HERE. ...

'Watchmen' Trailer for 'Black Freighter' DVD
Get The Big Picture — ... of the Watchmen ultimately unfolds. It appears in several issues of the original, more as a counterpoint to the Watchmen storyline than anything else. Still, Warner Bros. knew it had something special on its hands when it started making Watchmen, so a Black Freighter animated feature is a fantastic idea for an off-shoot, especially because you hate to discard it for purposes of efficiency in the movie. There's a new trailer for the DVD over at MTV, and that voice you hear is Gerard Butler: ...

Animated Trailer for 'Watchmen: Tales of the Black Freighter' Debuts
RopeofSilicon.com — I continue to wonder just how good or potentially bad Watchmen (3/6) may be, but I can't deny my anticipation in seeing it. I also can't deny I am anxiously awaiting the March 24 release of the animated story Tales of the Black Freighter, a comic that is woven into the "Watchmen" graphic novel and will debut on Blu-ray and DVD before getting a special feature treatment on the Watchmen release sometime later this year. Today MTV debuted the trailer for this animated adventure and I have added it directly below but you can ...

/Film — ... Warner Premiere has released a movie trailer for the animated direct-to-DVD adaptation of the comic book within the story of Watchmen - Tales of the Black Freighter.

Watchmen: Tales of the Black Freighter Trailer
Film Junk — ... . The quality of the animation looks decent, although I’m still not quite convinced that it deserves its own standalone release. (I think it would have made a better bonus feature on the Watchmen DVD.) You can also check out the trailer in HD courtesy of MTV Overdrive (in the U.S. only). Is this enough to convince you to fork out the cash to buy the DVD or Blu-ray? ...

Watchmen - Black Freighter Trailer
Movie Moron — ... to interupt a film to show a cartoon. So here it is: I haven’t read the comic, so this means nothing to me. It’s a cartoon about pirates voiced by Gerard Butler. Is this going to make people’s heads explode or something? Tales of the Black Freighter hits DVD and Blu-Ray soon, probably around the same time the film unleashes havoc upon the cinemas.

Watchmen Director's Cut Will Be Back in Theaters in July?!
FirstShowing.net — ... Snyder also talks about the details on the DVD and Blu-Ray, which will be double-dipped with an initial release and a combined secondary release later in the fall, which will contain the Tales of the Black Freighter animated movie spliced into the live-action movie. But considering we're all about theatrical releases, this is very exciting news to hear. I'm kind of amazed that Zack got Warner Brothers to approve this, but if it ends up being as big of a hit as everyone is expecting, then why not? Plus, they need to make up some of their lost costs due to the ...
