@linky: No release dates yet... Most likely end of the year for Christmas shoppers.

Does the Director's Cut include Tales of the Black Freighter and Under the Hood? If not, are there plans for a complete version that includes those 2 bits incorporated into the movie, as in the book?

Looks like 2 Blu-Rays I have to get as soon as they come out.

Definitely waiting for the ultimate edition. The $10 a ticket for the IMAX was enough to hold me over until the $40 version with everything complete comes out. Then we may be complete.

I'm more interested in the Director's Cut than the Ultimate Edition. The Tales of the Black Freighter worked great in the graphic novel, but I feel in the movie it would stop the action cold.

You know, overall I liked Watchmen. It was certainly flawed, and way too long, but I think I'd want to see it again before I give real consideration to buying it.

Yeah I'm not sure if I should get the director's cut, or wait to see what the Ultimate version delivers. I guess I'll have to wait and read blu ray reviews for both. Not sure if the Tales of the Black Freighter incorporated in the movie will make it better overall.

Sweet. But do you know if the Ultimate Watchmen just has Black Freighter addded on, or is it even more than that?
