Just a few things, but the Watchmen opening credits are online, and there's also a headline containing the phrase "Gambit UNF UNF UNF." Enjoy.

Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens in Sleeping Beauty photoshoot for Annie Leibovitz. Here's the interesting thing--I am a HUGE Kinuko Craft fan, and I actually own her illustrated Sleeping Beauty, so I immediately noticed that they were using her character design (and pose!) and not Disney's... in a photoshoot for Disney. What?

The ‘Watchmen’ Opening Credits are Online (and they are really fantastic, and worth watching multiple times to catch all the details--they're really a tiny film narrative unto themselves):

Watchmen To Make An Assload Of Money; ‘Watchmen’ Manages $25.2 Million in Early Friday Box-Office Estimates; Final Watchmen Video Journal: Societal Parallels; The best (and worst) mainstream review quotes about Watchmen; Watchmen Reviews: 'Maybe It's Better to Grow Up' [Why So Critical?]; Watchmen Is A Rorschach Test For Critics [Critical Mass]; Jeffrey Dean Morgan & Nathan Fillion on The View; Billy Crudup & his elfin features charm on The Daily Show; From The Mouth Of Watchmen's Blue Man (Reporter: "Obviously it's very stylized but you don't see wangs like that..." Crudup: "This is the question?"); Who Watches the Watchmen Licensers? Web-World Does. Rorschach Underwear, Anybody?; Hitler Responds to the News of Watchmen's Ending [Best Parody EVAR]. I don't know, the Saturday morning cartoon I linked the other day was also pretty good.

to be fair, if anyone with worth having UNF UNF UNF in the title, it'd be taylor.

[nnneng.livejournal.com]

what is chace doing in this pic?

[elbales]

That entire ONTD thread about Taylor Kitsch (what a name!) had me laughing hysterically. It's like Exhibit A for anyone who doesn't believe women can be just as dirty-minded as men. ^_^

[crumpeteer.livejournal.com]

Kitsch seems to be ONTD's chosen hunk of man meat. I'll admit he seems cut out for his new profession and it's amusing to see people acting like they're at a Chippendale show.

[redcoast.livejournal.com]

I can't decide if I should see Watchmen or not, so thank you for posting the credits. It helps a lot to see actual clips rather than trailers.

[famousdeaths.livejournal.com]

The dog in UP is just adorable. SQUIRREL!

[sun-star-n-moon.livejournal.com]

Oh man, the twilight deleted scenes sent me into a fit of giggles all over again.

I love the "A hundred years of scrapbooks journals" comment.

[wolfsilveroak.livejournal.com]

First Official Publicity Stills from 'Prince of Persia';

Yeah.... no.

I love that game. He's no Prince of Persia.}:/

The Sleeping Beauty photo was very well done.

[elbales]

Srsly. Even leaving aside the blinding whiteness, he lacks a six pack. Just, no.

[leucocrystal]

Man, I love the talking dog, too. They had me at "SQUIRREL?! (long pause)"

[anne-jumps.livejournal.com]

Yayyy, Bill Weasley. More gingers.

[elendiari22.livejournal.com]

I hate to admit it, but I kind of love Bella's hair in the movie.

[maudelynn.livejournal.com]

It is a very nice wig.

[queenanthai.livejournal.com]

Wait...they're remaking Lady Vengeance now? I haven't even been able to find a copy of the original to watch yet!

GODDAMMIT NOTHING IS SACRED BLAH BLAH BLAH DO NOT WANT MOAR REMAKES

[crumpeteer.livejournal.com]

Rorshach underwear? It's funny until you remember they actually made vampire glitter.

downloading videos off net

[platinum-cobra.livejournal.com]

Hey I was wondering what you use to download videos off the internet? I am trying to download the opening credits and failing miserably. lol

Re: downloading videos off net

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Well, I think they've taken them down now. Try this:

[moogleybacon.livejournal.com]

I don't care if that poster is fake, I would still buy it. And I didn't even consider that with all the actual Twilight posters.

And Taylor Kitsch is slowly turning in to my new favorite person. X3 I'm so pumped for Wolverine.

[mrs-bruin.livejournal.com]

IA about the New Moon poster. I was at Blockbuster and they had a 5' poster of Rob (but amazingly NOT with scary Edward face) I think advertizing the doll, and I totally wanted to rip it down and run out with it so I could hang it on my wall.

[misslucyjane]

Zac Efron looks like he was molded out of plastic.

It's not just me, is it?

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

I've always said he looked like a melted Ken doll.

[maudelynn.livejournal.com]

Should I bother watching the Twilight out takes?

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

I haven't watched them myself yet, actually, so I don't know. They can't be all that long, I guess?

[smu.livejournal.com]

God, I can't for the life of me remember who Jane was in the books. A wolf? I dunno. I can't stand Fanning, so eh. Then again, I'm so totally worn out on Twilight, I can't care anymore. I work in a bookstore, it's still one of our top sellers. :/

Up looks awesome, especially now that I know what it's about. The dog is genius. SQUIRREL!

[maisontv.livejournal.com]

Jane was the little girl vampire who could taser people with her mind.

I work in a bookstore too. We can't keep the books on the shelves. And I work for Borders, which is officially affiliated with Twilight, so we have all the merchandise crap too.

[robinmc.livejournal.com]

Somehow I don't think KStew has read Breaking Dawn. That's just my hunch.

I've been anti-Billy Crudup for a while, but seeing him on The Daily Show, and reading that io9 interview...I'm starting to warm to him. Also, "Billy Crudup's Blue Wang" is quickly becoming my new favorite phrase. I'm going to start a band called Billy Crudup's Blue Wang.

[wildcatlizzie.livejournal.com]

I am morally opposed to Zac Efron playing my favorite Disney prince. Just sayin'.

[drpeprfan.livejournal.com]

Amen to that. He doesn't even have brown eyes! So he sings and dances, but I definitely couldn't see him saying "No. Carrots." or "Father, you're living in the past. This IS the fourteenth century." with any kind of awesomeness as the original.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_stormthesea/]

YES, free books! I love free books, considering my public library is still closed for renovations, and the university library has a very meager collection of fiction. I suspect the librarians are hiding better books somewhere else for their own nefarious uses, since I can find them in the database, just not on the shelves.

[chocotaku.livejournal.com]

Will it make you jealous if I told you they were giving away Watchmen posters as we walked out?

Also, before the movie I made mention about all the wang in the movie. I was cursed at alot for making people pay attention to that.

[diddakoi.livejournal.com]

Clearly that New Moon poster is a fake; Pattinson doesn't look nearly creepy enough.

[aficat.livejournal.com]

CHINCHILLA. POO. RAINSTICKS.

SMEYER, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU. SERIOUSLY.

/Gah, outtakes.

[clodia-risa.livejournal.com]

Okay, I'm a huge fan of Kinoko Craft as well, but I didn't realize it was her art that you were linking to when you first linked the Sleeping Beauty picture. I just thought that it was a really really old illustration of Sleeping Beauty that managed to look a lot like Craft's artwork and style. *facepalm*

[angelene.livejournal.com]

Sigh, the Watchmen titles seem to have been pulled offline (or else I just can't uh see them?). The official Yu-Co website doesn't have them and the other sites were just remotely linking the original flash embed, so. Bummer.

And the PoP ONTD post is locked? I didn't know that ONTD had locked posts. Um. Bummer two, I guess.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Oh, man--I bet their servers got hammered. That, or maybe WB showed up and said, "Um, dude, that's the best part of the movie, take it down." And they've taken the file off their servers--you can't download it directly, either.

... except that I already did when I first saw them yesterday:
