Watchmen

[Carvill John]

Zack Snyder, director of the film of 'Watchmen', interviewed/puffed in the Independent on Sunday today. Sounds like a real shithead:
 
"'Zack understands combat,' Butler tells me. 'He's trained with Navy Seals. Why? He just loves it! There was that element to Zach – he's always been into these kind of things you weren't quite sure about. I'm sure he was operating in Afghanistan between films.' 
 
When I read this quote to Snyder, he grins. 'Look, I'm an action geek, I can't help it. I'll show you this picture of me,' he says, hopping out of his seat, 'and you decide...' He hands me a Polaroid: it's a picture of the director in what looks like combat gear, next to a bearded corpse. Written underneath is: 'Snyder and Hussein, 12-13-03' – the day Saddam was captured by US troops. Snyder is tickled by this (I imagine) artful piece of digital photographic manipulation. "
 
Can you imagine Alan Moore's reaction, if he read something like that?!
