Yes... I want to see a Patrick Wilson Nite-Owl manip.
And a Jason Patric Doc Manhattan manip would be nice too.

Good manip... but does he have any qualifications other than looking like him?

[ConcreteBlock15]

As a viewer of his past efforts, I'd unequivocally shout a resounding YES!

But I'm not a Hollywood casting director... more's the pity. Let's see.

[Rust]

Some old manips I did...

John Corbett as Manhattan (I'd still like to see him in the part):

In the meantime here's one of Thomas Jane as Edward Blake. That's just in case they actually offer him the part and he gets it. Guess it could work... somehow.:)

Great manip! I completely sympathize with your dubiousness/skepticism. When I heard about Jane, I immediately took to google-images to see how it might work. I mean, didn't anyone else find that Punisher film completely laughable?
In any case, I found a photo that totally sold me. I posted it in the casting thread, then it abruptly and mysteriously vanished from its original source... CUE SPOOKY MUSIC! Anywho, fortunately for us "Carmine Falcone" from this very same forum put the pic up somewhere on the internets and posted a link:

Doesn't this bloated spectacle make you forget all your doubts? Apparently he produced that bat-s**t crazy David Arquette movie "The Tripper" -- which, to me, indicates that the dude is intelligent (and boning Arquette's sista, but who among us will say boo to that?!?!). And while I find the prospect of Mel Gibson shooting a pregnant Vietnamese woman in the stomach rather eyebrow-raising, I will happily resign myself to trust that Snyder is making outright inspired casting choices.
Anyone up for manip-ing this pilled-up, glorious bastard?

[Wolfman]

Nice manips, you've seen this? I didn't made this, just found it:

http://www.logicalcreativity.com/jon/watchmenposter.jpg

Ed Harris as Dr. Manhattan? Lol. Only thing right in this manip is John Cusack as Nite Owl. Allthough Patrick Wilson is confirmed on that role, right?

[Iglius]

That's the one I was talking about--the one with Mel Gibson. I just didn't think it was that convincing-looking. And I reeeeally don't agree with the rest of that cast, except for, maybe, Cusack.

When I saw that I was immediately reminded of the sensation I had during a nightmare of my dick falling off.

[Iglius]

I seriously don't know about Jane as The Comedian.


And it looks like he's in Dewey's apartment from School of Rock in that picture ^

[Carmine Falcone]

I would love to see a manip of Jackie Earle Haley as Kovacs...

[Iglius]

Would you want to see him with some prosthetics, or just as is?

[Carmine Falcone]

I don't think prostethics are necessary, he has a scary looking face of himself. And the way Kovacs looks isn't as important as Rorschach's look. As long as he has red hair, so he should definately wear a wig.

But that's Jason Patric not Patrick Wilson.

It's veteran character actor Colfax Mingo. He is best known for his turn as "Professor Delacroix" in the short-lived Mr. Belvedere/My Two Dads crossover. He's out of the running, however, since he recently immolated himself on the steps of the capitol building in Topeka. A note found posthumously indicated that he did so in protest of cottage cheese. He was a loon, and would have been a cunning choice for our vigilante.

I'm not sure Selleck can bring the proper sadistic tone to the role. Also, they are going to have to pick people who can play anything from mid 20's to late 50's agewise (unless they hire 2 actors for each character), he's too old to play the young comedian.

yeah thats watchmen-y but it wouldnt necesarily entice people to see it or captivate them.

[Jon Osterman]

i think it would because it would get peoples attention

[ThatDamnNinja]

The poster needs to be something that is vague and mysterious, but still says something about the movie, grabs people's attention and says to them "This is not your typical superhero movie. This is not your typical thriller. This is not your typical anything."

...And just to be clear, to avoid misinterpretation, I'm not suggesting that as a tagline... I mean that metaphorically.

I'm not positive they should go in this direction, but character posters might work. Or, short of that, a Rorschach poster. Much like the movie, Rorschach himself is unlike anything most people have seen before.

Well, NONE of them are confirmed at all, so lets not jump to conclusions here.
And Rorschach will be wearing a mask most of the time, so a manip of him is pretty pointless, I guess.

... but since he's gonna be CGI, I guess he's gonna be more... well... Silver Surfer-like looking with smooth skin and no human anomalies. Hopefully he'll still resemble Crudup.
youre really good at those. you should do one of jefrey dean morgan as the comedian

[ThatDamnNinja]

Agreed. And a blonde, Ozymandified Matthew Goode. And Jackie Earle Haley with hair.

[Rust]

Yeah, I'll try Morgan as The Comedian and a blond Goode and probably a horisontically challenged Wilson. :yay:

They confirmed he's gonna be CGI? Damn, SS looked like total ass.:csad:
This looks amazing. Why can't they just touch up the actor with some digital glow? Or even do what they did with Abe Sapien in Hellboy? All CGI characters never look good.

That's how I felt too. Just another stiff-looking Silver Surfer in a blue glow.
But Snyder compared the CGI to Davy Jones and Co. in Pirates... rather than the SS, so that definitly comforts me somewhat. And with all CGI they have complete control over the character, whereas with a real actor things are more complex and limited thus more expensive.
But I really really hope that they'll make him look alive and dynamic (opposite SS) with lots of texture-anomalies. Maybe even make him slightly transluscent like a jellyfish, exposing his organs. I've seen an early concept-sketch of that.

Still, I would've liked to see what an actor painted blue and then CGI-enhanced would've looked like...

WHAT?
Apart from a couple of scenes there's no logically explanation for using CGI to portray Doctor Manhattan. Greengrass was planning to use a special kind of body paint to do the glowing in camera, too.
The CGI money could have been used to cast some better actor.

Better actor? Reeves maybe?
Believe me, Crudup is as good a contender as anybody.

And I meant that since they're going the CGI-route, then I'd rather have Snyder comparing a CGI-Manhattan to Davy Jones than to SS.
And you have more control with a CGI-character than you have with an actor that you have to manipulate with CGI and now I'm refering to making him bigger or making him fly etc.

But like you, I'd choose an actor in blue added CGI over a full CGI-rendition anyday, so chill...

I thought Davy Jones was Bill Nygh in makeup with cg enhancement.:huh:

well as long as manhattan looks like a real part of his environment like davy jones did, then it sounds good but other wise its a waste of money and more proof that CGI is being over used like crazy these days

Holy ****!:wow: I never would have guessed in a million years. I can no longer ***** about CGI being unconvincing. If they are using the same techniques and level of artists to bring Doctor Manhattan to the screen, they have my blessings. That is seriously awe inspiring.

[Artistsean]

i aint knockin' your efforts Artistsean but they all look so.... happy :oldrazz:

I never said it was the best, more meant to inspire others. Get somone to do a better manip of that I had hoped. And meant to just put all the actors together in the classic group shot to see what they would look like together.

Also, you try finding good headshots of actors not smiling. Its very hard.:woot:

The actors who plays Hiro on Heroes works at ILM (Industrial Light and Magic) and worked on the previous Pirate movies, Jarassic Park, and some others. He does stuff like that when he isn't acting. (just thought I'd add that in.)

[StorminNorman]

slightly homoerotic, but not bad

[tekken]

i think dr. manhattan will look more cgi than a blue skinned man. i'm thinking he'll look like silver surfer(when off the board/not shiny) in the f4 movie.

[Carmine Falcone]

slightly homoerotic, but not bad

Are you suggesting that's a downside? :wow:

Is all my hope gone StorminNorman?

[Lobster Charlie]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v422/artos/dr_m.jpg

That's very well done! If I may offer one suggestion: try to adjust the hydrogen atom symbol a bit so it looks more natural and contoured to this head. If you're using photoshop, it's the "warp" tool under Transform. Maybe even play with the blur (like 1 pixel to give it natural softness) and I think you've got perfection!

Other than that...best Doc Manhattan manip I've seen thus far. :up:

[Captain Carnage]

Are they gonna try replicate the whole effect of the comic, I wonder?

Save for the hatching lines that define his musculature so as not to make for a completely flat 2-D drawing on the page... no shadows or highlights fall upon Dr Manhattan's body; his surface repels them, an effect deliberately created to make him appear even more 'otherworldly'.

Nowhere is this effect better demonstrated than in the digitally recolored ABSOLUTE edition - it serves to reinforce the whole idea as described by Hollis Mason in Chap V. of his Under The Hood memoirs... that meeting Manhattan face-to-face makes you uneasy, the initial "shock of his physical presence" means "...your brain wants to scream, blow a fuse and shut itself down immediately, refusing to accept that he exists."

That's a good point. The only problem I see with that being put on film is that it might come off as bad cgi to the audience. It'd be really hard to pull that off, but it'd be cool to see them try something like it.

[Rust]

Yeah, I guess the glow from his skin will make him shadowless and 2D-like. Will his skin be shiny or matt? Will there be texture?
He's gonna be a little tricky to visualize, but I expect them to make him more fantastic looking than in the book possibly making him translucent, showing his organs and so on...

That's exactly the problem. If I met someone like that in real life, my brain would do exactly what CC said. But if I see it in a film, I just say, "oh that guy doesn't exist, he's just a crappy cgi puppet".

He's gonna need texture. If he's completely smooth, he'll be obvious CGI.

I wanted more than slightly homoerotic :cmad:

[Lobster Charlie]

God, I hope they don't go Silver Surfer with him. I honestly think he doesn't need much work. Think about it for a second---if you saw a naked, BLUE man who has no eyes, and is GLOWING both inside and out, that's going to be pretty damned freaky.

I think that manip above is definitely headed in the right direction. The "texture" could easily just be muscle definition and natural shading---only, of course, unnatural. Just make it look a bit over-exposed and I think we're gold.

[Luchastyle]

i want to see a good comedian manip. the comedian is clearly the best character in the book. and i know some people will argue rorschach. and rorschach is awesome. but the comedian is so classic. plus, rorschach is hard to do a manip for, cuz you need to create the mask

I think he DOES wear an eyemask. I'm just not sure if it's gonna look good on screen or if it's gonna look silly, So I kinda did both.
Maybe the goth-makeup could look cool on screen, kinda like the Crow albeit a little less than the above picture.
Or maybe he'll just wear the wrestler-mask throughout the whole movie as the Comedian.

I think it got a small mention at a couple o' places. :cwink:

[sad lieutenant]

A bit of a stretch, but how about Joaquin Phoenix for Edward Blake?

I had three thoughts about that idea:

1) Blake's already been cast;
2) Did you think of Phoenix simply on account of his hair-lip?
3) I'd like to see the dude act his way out of a wet paper bag first. Seriously. While Homeboy's turn in "Space Camp" got my attention, his performance in "Quills" set a threshold of embarrassment that is surpassed only by a small, elite group of hack-thesps (Brian Bosworth and Leonardo DiCaprio come to mind). And I don't even blame the dude for his M. Night roles because I do have an innate sense of compassion.

i remember a 360 degree tracking shot like in clerks 2, it went around some characters for a long time.

everyone was in their exact costumes

actually, it was kinda like the beginning of the incredibles.

i remember lots of crowds chearing, rock music in the background. the comedian's grin was positively evil as he fired his ak-47. doc manhattan was shiny, and looked a bit like that one manip of doc manhattan in the manips section. his face was sad and bored, always. silk spectre was freakin sexy, and ozymandias looked like a god, much like xerxes in 300. also the scene with the pedophile looked like a scene right outta seven.

dont remember too much though.

Out of topic sort of; all those who make manips, isn't it a ***** to try and find the exact picture you need for your manip? I searched for that hand like an hour or something and I would have wanted a different kind of hand, because I wanted it to be more like in the original picture. Anyone feel me? It's really frustrating to search something for hours and not be able to do your manip, until you get that piece you need in it. Anyways, here's the inspiration for that pic. This one looks much cooler then my vision:

That is fantastic. Using leather instead of rubber was a great idea - hopefully Snyder will follow suite.

Yeah, something in the direction of leather might actually work...

This is work in progress sort of...but it will give you general idea!

Maybe the quote shouldn't be in a black box, just on top of the picture. But I love the clock and the release date underneath it. That's really cool idea.

Too bad? You'd want those huge silicone breasts? They look horrible and funny at the same time. She looks great in that picture you posted.

[lebowski8]

I tried to find a full body image of Malin that was easy to adapt but it was impossible.

The body belongs to Veronica Zemanova. Here are the images I used to make that manip.

Horrible? No. Funny maybe. Not suited to the character, sure.
And Veronica Zemanova's funbags are the real deal.

that's badass. good to see we got a couple actual manips to hold us over until we see the costumes. good work you guys =D

I had three thoughts about that idea:

1) Blake's already been cast;
2) Did you think of Phoenix simply on account of his hair-lip?
3) I'd like to see the dude act his way out of a wet paper bag first. Seriously. While Homeboy's turn in "Space Camp" got my attention, his performance in "Quills" set a threshold of embarrassment that is surpassed only by a small, elite group of hack-thesps (Brian Bosworth and Leonardo DiCaprio come to mind). And I don't even blame the dude for his M. Night roles because I do have an innate sense of compassion.

Actually I thought of Phoenix because he first looks the role of the Comedian and he can sure as hell act; he's evil and psycotic in Gladiator and does a better Johnny Cash than Johnny Cash himself.

I can see where you're coming from... I haven't seen "Gladiator" because whenever I get the urge I come to senses, do some drugs, and watch "Blade Runner" for the bugillionth time; I saw "Quills" and laughed my balls off; I saw "Signs" and crapped myself with laughter. And so I really can't get on the J. Phoenix bandwagon.
Incidentally, I had the misfortune of seeing "Walk the Line" this weekend, and it was an abomination, really. Nevermind the literal white-washing of Vivian -- Phoenix sounded like a troglodyte masturbating in a VH1-caliber production.

Now, as for the Comedian we actually got, I have no freakin idea. Is anyone else still kinda made at Tom Jayne for not being interested in the part? I thought that guy was a comic geek!

Not bad! Think you can make Ozy with blonde hair? Probably pretty hard to do. But that's a pretty cool Bubastis!
