Outpost #31

If you’ve been keeping an eye on the New Frontiersman Twitter feed you’ll already have seen new updates on Flickr - including this rather splendid shot of a Dr Manhattan aided moon landing:

But the first of the video archives just went online with this rather interesting bit of retro TV:

I think this just surpassed The Dark Knight campaign.

As good as that movie was it was a mongrel - Watchmen, however, is shaping up to be a little more purebred. The extra material doesn’t detract from or contradict the original graphic novel, but rather adds a further appendix to the book itself. The movie will stand or fall on its own merits, but stuff like the Flickr stream, the use of Twitter and now this filmed supplemental material have really upped the game.

Gonna be a fun ride through to March.

Disclaimer: Despite my namesake, Jim, up there I’m not working on this campaign - but I am keeping a very close eye on it
