The League - Fan film to help us through while waiting for the Watchmen

Clive Young over on the always excellent Fan Cinema Today has news on a fan made film called, The League, that may be worth watching while we wait for Zack Snyder's Watchmen adaption.

The film follows a band of original, yet strangely familiar superheroes who began their adventures in the 1940s, but the story takes place decades later, after cynicism and aging have started to take their toll. That’s where the similarities with Watchmen end, however; in fan film terms, The League has much more in common with Grayson, the acclaimed Robin pseudo-trailer, and Tomorrow’s Memoir, which follows the film noir ramblings of geriatric Superman.

I posted the Grayson trailer a while ago and I am always in awe at the quality some of these fan films reach for little or no reward. You can watch The League here.

Check out Clive's book, Homemade Hollywood: Fans Behind the Camera if you get the chance.

Let me know what you thought of The League.
