Welcome back to Not A Bomb! This is the podcast where we explore some of cinema’s biggest box office failures and decide whether they deserve a second chance. We are celebrating five years of discussing cinematic flops!

Comic Book Month kicks off with a bang as Not A Bomb tackles a legendary title once deemed “unfilmable.” So, who did Hollywood call? Zack Snyder, of course…

Join the crew as they time-jump back to 1985 and dive into the Ultimate Cut of Watchmen (2009)—a bold adaptation of one of the greatest graphic novels ever written. While the theatrical release struggled to connect with mainstream audiences, does the Ultimate Cut finally deliver the definitive version fans were hoping for?

Helping unpack this dense and divisive film is long-time listener and first-time guest Alex, who brings fresh insight to the conversation. The episode also explores Warner Bros. Animation’s 2024 Watchmen: Chapter I & II releases and how they stack up against Snyder’s vision.

Who watches the Watchmen? Not A Bomb does—and now you can too.

Watchmen is directed by Zach Snyder and stars Malin Akerman, Billy Crudup, Matthew Goode, Carla Gugino, Jackie Earle Haley, Jeffery Dean Morgan, and Patrick Wilson
