KSK Celebrity Pickkake: Watchmen
01.22.09Based on the most acclaimed graphic football prognostication of all time.
“One day, the commenters on this blog are gonna ask for a Super Bowl pick. And I’ll look at them and say… ‘No.’”
From the visionary mind of Alan Moore, the creator of “V for Vendetta, and W for the Giants in SB XLII” comes his masterstroke.
“What if that’s why someone wants us out of the way, so we can’t sway the betting in Vegas?”
They watch over games.
But who watches them?
And more importantly, WHO THEY GOT!?
Due to a pending lawsuit filed by Twentieth Century Fox against Warner Bros. Pictures, the release date of the Watchmen Super Bowl pick is being delayed until such point that the two parties are able to reach a settlement on distribution rights.
In the meantime, here’s a new Japanese teaser of the Super Bowl pick.

they should’ve re-shot the trailer to open with Matt Millen: “Just a matter of time I suppose”
“No Pirate story, no movie. That shit better be on the dvd.”
Pretty sure it’s being done as an animated DVD release, with Leonidas/OperaGhost as the … uh I forget if he has a name, but the one character in the story.
Without it, the movie is still supposedly going to clock in close to three hours, so they probably made the right call. I think they would have lost some casual movie goers with the whole story within the story angle.
@2Port – I’d take the death of everybody in the Tampa area over Pittsburgh winning =
I don’t remember the heroes actually having a team called ‘Watchmen’… I’ll have to re-read the comics.
/I love Gaiman to death, but A Game Of You is the 2nd best comic story ever written behind Watchmen, Slothrop
/Doll’s House would be the 3rd
@Rob You,
other things? I’m wrong about everything, thank you very much.
The Black Pirate ship is like the superbowl commercials
/nerd boner
No Pirate story, no movie. That shit better be on the dvd.
/My mom says I’m cool
hehe, masterstoke.
Faggots.
/can’t wait to see the movie!
Someone needs a lozenge.
You know, if he talked faster, the narrator would sound like Cookie Monster.
@ Slothrop
It’s nice to know you’re wrong about other things besides football.
Kurt Warner doesn’t believe in Dr. Manhattan. Only Jesus can time travel.
Doctor Manhattan doesn’t have a pick, because football never really ends.
Ozymandias only watches for the commercials.
/spoiler
The Super Bowl will end with a giant **** being teleported into the middle of Tampa Bay.
Doctor Manhattan is a way cooler than Doctor Detroit.
Get with the times Ape. Fox and Warner settled the lawsuit last week.

I love this movie so much, I want to take it behind a middle school and get it pregnant.
@Slothrop
Agreed. Although Watchmen is still far better than anything Grant Morrison has done
/wedgie’s self
Gaiman’s Sandman series kicks Watchman’s ass. And V for Vendetta sucks.
/let the GraNoFlaWa begin!
I think Silk Spectre went to Arizona State, if that clarifies her possible rooting interest for the game.
