Well, I just got through reading Watchmen, by Alan Moore (of V for Vendetta fame).  Incredible book.  Anyway, it occured the character, Dr. Manhattan, looked kinda like Halborn.  So I took the audio from the trailer for the upcoming movie and... well, see for yourself.

Oh, and here's the original trailer, for comparison purposes.

Nice work, man! The timing was very good, especially when Halborn stood there having taken out the Agents. SMILEY

. . .

Whoa.

WHOA!

You couldn't have picked better clips from the cinematics to fit the audio, and you're right about Halborn resembling Dr. Manhattan: when he first showed up, he reminded me of *someone* (I'd read "Watchmen" some months before the Chapter 9 series of MxO), but I couldn't place who it was.

And putting the image of the Assassin during lines "The world will look up at us..." etc, is perfect: I wonder if Chadwick, et al got the Assassin's look from Rohrshach.

Star, that was *CENSORED* amazing and I obviously do not care if that gets filtered, because everybody knows what I'm talking about.

There's a new trailer out! Guess I'll have to make an MXO-ized version of that, too.

Man... they really used every trick from the Wachowskis' book on the Matrix look in this movie... *Not* doing an MxO trailer based on this would be a crime.

While I agree the first was a tad better, they are both your best pieces of work to date, Star.  SMILEY

There's a new trailer, so I guess you know what that means - my new mashup is uploading now.
