A few lucky European cinema owners are getting a chance to view exclusive footage from the upcoming Watchmen movie at this year's cinema expo. Now the rest of us can do the same online - kind of. Under the jump: Glimpses of what you can see in next year's superhero movie of the summer, if you squint hard enough. A couple of months ago, Watchmen director Zach Snyder invited fans of Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' graphic novel to create fake advertisements for products created by Adrian Veidt's corporation that would then be played in the background of various scenes of the actual movie. The fans, of course, ...

The idea was that the winning entries would be played in the background of the movie as advertisements for Veidt’s products. A pretty sweet idea, not to mention a cool way to make fans feel like they’re ...
