Zack Snyder brings Watchmen to the big screen, of course with the help of some really cool and talented actors, Bill Crudup, Malin Akerman, and Jackie Earle Haley. Have to admit, I dozed off watching Watchmen but Rorschach (Jackie) clearly stole the show, he was awesome–totally immersed himself into the role. What impressed me was how true to the comics the Watchmen movie was, and of course the special effects were pretty impressive not to mention the musical score which is ripe with ringtones.
For those who don’t know, Watchmen was written as a 12 series comic book by Alan Moore distributed by DC Comics. It’s available as a graphic novel, now. Yup it is another Superhero movie but it’s sort of poking fun in an intellectual sort of way at the whole Superhero genre. The Watchmen movie involved Doctor Manhattan (Crudup), Rorschach (Jackie), Silk Spectre (Carla Gugino), Ozymandias and The Comedian (Jeffrey Dean Morgan who plays the dad from Supernatural the TV series). Oh and the rumors are true, Doctor Manhattan’s junk was all in your face and stinky…
I thought it appropriate to start providing Watchmen ringtones considering how cool some of the musical score was. The tracks are awesome as well, here’s a rundown of the songs included on the Watchmen soundtrack:
1. Desolation Row My Chemical Romance
2. Unforgettable Nat King Cole
3. The Times They Are A-Changin’ Bob Dylan
4. The Sound Of Silence Simon And Garfunkel
5. Me And Bobby McGee Janis Joplin
6. I’m Your Boogie Man K.C. And The Sunshine Band
7. You’re My Thrill Billie Holiday
8. Pruit Igoe & Prophecies Philip Glass Ensemble
9. Hallelujah Leonard Cohen 4:36
10. All Along The Watchtower Jimi Hendrix
11. Ride Of The Valkyries Budapest Symphony Orchestra
12. Pirate Jenny [Live] Nina Simone
We chose to rip Watchmen ringtones off the actual musical scores due to it’s natural ringtone tendency. With that said, Rescue Mission is the first mp3 ripped track off of the Watchmen musical score by Tyler Bates. He’s done quite a few movies, 300 was another Zack Snyder directed film he provided music for. The ringtone is a less than 20 seconds and is essentially the start of the track but that’s all you need, the build up, anticipation and peak are all there.
