I wouldn't have cared if they had gone the hard rock/metal road, as I enjoy pretty much any kind of rock music you throw at me. I also didn't know that they gained fans with Minutes. I was under the impression that they had lost quite a lot, which made me sad since I have been a fan since the first EP, because most of the ones walking away were the ones that had been with them for so long. If they gained fans, I suppose that is a good thing, though I would like to think they didn't change purely for that reason. I would love to see this next album be more experimental though. Percussion, in my opinion, is the life force of a band, and the more from Rob the better.

The older albums were what I loved in middle/high school, but a formula only works for so long. Minutes to Midnight showed them trying to branch out. It worked for me, it didn't for you, and it didn't for a lot of others. I for one would rather see them fail trying something new then keep giving me the same thing. I hope the new album, and I guess I don't really need to hope because they have basically confirmed it with this song, is more like Minutes.

As a longtime fan of the show, I sincerely hope that they are able to realize the goal they are setting for themselves. I think it is much-needed and will be welcomed by most fans.

Neeson is awesome but the entire thing is ludicrous. It is no better than a bad episode of 24. Skip it completely and watch a Bourne movie.

I doubt they will keep the acrobatic feats from the game.

It was the last film of cinematographer Adrian Biddle before his untimely death and I was always sad he didn’t go out riding on a higher wave. Maybe my familiarity with so many of the faces and textures on display helped the whole thing seem so… televisual." You can always tell when you are reading a Brendon Connelly article...

It's his divinity that isn't, and can't, be proved. And hardly any religious group would look further than the title "The Christ Must Die" before they decided to be pissed.

Obviously, if Nazi Zombies are trying to prevent Christ from being born, our protagonist is the kid in the manger. Of course, they could do plenty with the idea that we have no idea about at the moment., I think this sounds like a fantastic idea. Here's hoping someone has the guts to fund it.

He died in the same year of the flood, but it is never specified if this is what actually caused him to die. Again, not important, just thought I'd share.

If you thought the comic book was ballsy, it is impossible to think the movie was otherwise. Just because it is 2009 doesn't mean those subjects are acceptable. We don' t see those things as being heroic and we don't expect them out of our heroes.

It does not take balls to release a PG-13 super hero movie about a good guy vs. a bad guy. That's what they all are. TDK had large amounts of brains, yes. A rated R film that features super heroes that attempt rape, kill women, murder bad guys instead of knock them out with a KAPOW!, and by the end we have no real villain or person to blame...That's Watchmen and that's balls. You don't do that because it isn't supposed to make money and you don't do that because the story isn't what typical viewers want. The Dark Knight was. Don't start flaming me about TDK because I really enjoyed The Dark Knight, but Watchmen is on a different level, one that The Batman franchise will likely never reach because it accessible to almost anyone, while Watchmen polarizes Joe Film-Goer with violence with consequences, sex, and a moral checkmate that actually causes intellectual stimulation.
