UGH I KNOW, that is pretty emblematic of all the things I am terrified of this movie turning into. The rest, I am ready to frantically try and justify as being for the sake of the trailer, and hooking in newbie masses - the explanatory 'look, a glowing blue dude!', the amped-up WOOO SUPERHEROES FIGHTING AND BLOWING SHIT UP action scenes, etc.

(Am also hoping that Rorschach's line-delivery has been edited. I mean, he is supposed to have a creepy monotone voice, so there's that, and... well. I did some work experience in a radio station a few years ago, including an afternoon in the sound editing booth, and for ad spots, they literally cut out the pauses between words to shorten the delivery time and fit the recorded lines in the required space. So... yes.)

Also, that did not look to me so much like a rakish Tony Stark grin as an 'I am setting you on fire to burn and die horribly and loving it' grin.
