Do you have an example of bad makeup in Watchmen?

[LibidoLoca]

I remember both. Earlier reports said they were thrilled with it the latter said they were disappointed.

Don't actually want to go look it up but it was basically Gugino.

1985's Nixon and elderly Sally Jupiter.

I like the Hell outta the movie but those makeup jobs were awful.

[Project862006]

to be fair i have never seen old age make up look good on someone who wasn't already an older person

That was a guy that tweeted 6 months ago:

Exclusive: WB/Nolan aren’t happy with early cuts of Snyder’s Man of Steel.

Still nobody knows if that guy was really in a MOS cut showing...

Nixon was supposed to look something like a caricature of himself, similar to his portrayal in the book, and Sally Jupiter wasn't supposed to look just old...she was supposed to look like an old woman who had a lot of work done, but who was still trying to look young.

If that was from him, Peter Sciretta isn't a nobody.

Anything you read on the Inaccurate Movie Data Base I wouldn't take it too serious....

So are you saying... It could be true

[Kal-El.9859]

And I'm wondering if the makeup in Watchmen was supposed to be over the top...or whatever

[herolee10]

Didn't Russell Crowe say in a previous interview that Thomas Tull, one of the heads of the project was supposedly thrilled with what he's seen of the film?

[Kal-El.9859]

Just the full length trailer thrills me...The Superman Returns trailers were kinda cool, but they didn't blow my mind like the MOS #2 trailer, so I think this movie is going to own big time...

That makeup looked fine.

The Nixon was bad, yeah. But making young people look old is a bit different than what we're talking here. The fact that makeup looks fake, though, is why Snyder opts for the CG.

Just saying he's not some random guy on IMDB.

Yup, that makeup looks fine...It's been a quick minute since I've seen Watchmen though

[Liam_H]

Fine in a still shot but not so much in the movie itself.

he also said he opened his mouth before all his sources were checked out and later apologized

[robmx522]

No, it looked fine in the movie too.

VIDEO-CLick to Watch!:

[lixdexia]

man, all this disagreement... it's almost as if the two of you have different opinions on the completely subjective matter of the appearance of the make up in watchmen.

[DaJanksta]

This movie will be awesome!! It must be so it will!

[robmx522]

a fanboy website bashing something lol ?

Most likely because the studio got to him or he didn't want them to.
