I’m not a big Smashing Pumpkins fan, but the trailer for the new highbrow superhero flick “The Watchmen” features their song “The End is the Beginning is the End”–and its awesome!
Send a heartbeat to
The void that cries through you
The pale princess of a palace cracked
And now the kingdom comes
The world is lost and blown
And we are flesh and blood disintegrate
And in your darkest hour
I hold secrets flame
We can watch the world devoured in its pain
“God help us all”
“The world will look up and shout, “save us” and I’ll whisper ‘no.’ ”
Melodramatic shivers! I love it when visuals work so well with lyrics. Plus, nothing can put me in cinematic catharsis like a solidly edited trailer. Will “The Watchmen” be any good? I haven’t read the comic its based on, so I really can’t say, but regardless, this trailer is pretty sweet, visuals and music.
