Re: 300
I'm looking forward to The Watchmen. If anyone can pull it off it's Hayter, as he is a very good script writer. As for the 9/11 mentions, I think he was more comparing the events in the book with the events that took place on 9/11, rather than adding a modern twist. Hayter was saying that the world is ready for a major film about the subject matter because of 9/11, IMO.
Also, I like the idea of 300's director helming the project, but not because of 300. He directed the Dawn of the Dead remake and it was quite good. That proved he could handle multiple characters and storylines at once without having the entire movie suffer. That makes me more confident than anything in 300.
