The Watchmen / 守護者

這部片有很棒的故事結構，
不過我什麼也不會講，
作文和表達能力日漸退化的關係。

但是整部片看下來，
除了曼哈頓博士兩腿間的...外，
一直讓我印象深刻的是開場的片頭。
今天心血來潮上網去查了一下，
現在這些東西越來越好查，
一切就也沒有什麼了不起。

好萊塢的電影除了製片公司特效公司等等的共同參與外，
還有一個我之前想都沒想過的部份，
片頭公司。
這次的守護者也不例外，
導演Zach Snyder再一次的與上一回300壯士時的yU+Co.合作，
創造了這段(後來網路一查才發現)六分多鐘人氣超高的片頭，
網路上一堆人用守護者最佳片段來形容。

嚴格說起來，
yU+Co.這次為守護者作的不能說是片頭，
他們的說法是Title，
只是個片名這樣。
導演Zach Snyder已經拍好的6分多鐘片段，
和yU+Co.合力把字加上去。

yU+Co.也和李安的電影製作過一些片頭，
像綠巨人浩克(片頭)、色戒(title)等。

yU+Co.的網站也是相當的趣味，值得一看。

在這樣搜尋的過程發現的最重大的訊息就是，
三月初，這段片頭，似乎被yU+Co.發布在網路上，
立刻被各處轉載，
後來被華納下令刪掉這樣。
超可惜!!!

然後我找到了。


After the 162 minutes of this spring hit "The Watchmen",
I was haunted by not only thing between Dr. Manhattan's legs, but also
the amazing opening credits.

The 6 minutes opening scene with "The Times They Are A'Changin'" by Bob Dylan
was originally without titles.
Zach Snyder, the director teamed up with yU+Co. which they cooperated last time on "300" opening title, and turn out a great opening credit this year.

yU+Co. a visual effect design company in Hollywood
was also worked with Taiwan born director Ang Lee for his film "Hulk" and "Lust, Caution".

You can search the web for "watchmen opening title" or something and find out
first, people describe it as the best part of The Watchman
second, yU+Co. was published this precious 6 minutes clip online
third, the clip was officially been requested to remove by Warner Bro.

But, I've found it.
