Days away from its premiere, we are served with another trailer for HBO`s `Watchmen`. This trailer, more coherent than the comic-con trailer begins with Laurie Blake (Jean Smart) and Angela Barr (Regina King) debating on why vigilantes take up a masked identity. "It hides the pain," Laurie says in a matter-of-fact voice.
Judd Crawford (Don Johnson) is expecting a speech from detective Angela about an emerging gang war. She, however, subverts all expectations by telling him about a guy in his car`s truck. We see the law enforcement trying to avert an attack from a group called `Seventh Calvary` behind a vast and insidious war.
Created by Damon Lindeloff, `Watchmen` akes place in an alternative, a contemporary reality in the United States, in which masked vigilantes became outlawed due to their violent methods. Despite this, some gather around in order to start a revolution while others are out to stop it before it is too late, as a greater question rises above them all; who watches the Watchmen?"
