Talking Who watches the Watchmen?

Hey All!

We just got back from seeing the Watchman movie. I won't spoil it for anyone except to say the end of the movie has our favorite car making an appearance!! I was pleasantly surprised.

just saw it, its actually a red insight parked, and a silver insight passes from infront. I guess they wanted to show a futuristic scene, and these were probably the most futuristic looking cars they could find

I do, and I couldn't agree less. That car was indeed a head-turner.

I saw this too. Notice that the read Insight is a plug-in and its rear window is covered.

I find it ironic that they were looking for the future, utopia look and the Insight is what they came up with. If it is any consolation, Watchmen took place in ~'85.

lol, I think he's right! It's probably just for effect tho... It appears that the Insight is plugged into that Tesla coil looking thing. Hummm, wireless energy for your electric Insight...

My favorite movie quote of all time comes from that movie.....

None of you seem to get it. I'm not stuck in here with you, you're stuck in here with ME!
