I can't care this shit anymore.
So, the detail of the Watchmen: The Ultimate cut was announced yesterday.

To some people, I guess it might look OK.
But it's not a-fucking-ok for lots of Watchmen fans.
On the ad, it says ""Brand new cut of the movie never seen in the theater includes Tales of The Black Freighter woven into the director's cut of the film."
This is a shabby marketing, and if you read it closely, you'd know what it really wanted to say.
NO NEW FOOTAGE BEYOND THE DIRECTOR'S CUT.
JUST BLACK FREIGHTER AND 2 *NEW* COMMENTARIES BY NOT-ANY-OF-THE-CAST. (as much as I like Dave Gibbons, I'd rather like to see the cast *coughJHEandPWcough* do the commentary.)
What the fuck, WB? If you want to rip us off, FINE, DO IT, but at least show some courtesy by add some new footage of FUCKING ACTUAL MOVIE.
As the notorious The Comedian says, God help us all.
