@@demoh2186 The Batman & Robin version was known as The End is the Beginning is the End and was a pretty good rock song, especially for its time.

Uploaded this years ago because I couldn’t find this version online and happened to have the audio on an old mp3. Thank you guys for all of the love and comments!
Has it got a name? I can only find the the more "rock/metal" one. ETA: I just realised they have two versions The end is the beginning... And The beginning is the end....
Watchmen is possibly one of the most underrated movies, people went in expecting it to just be an action packed superhero movie, but it was simply so much more. Incredibly written, one of the best movies ever.
In the 90s I bought the mini cd of this, there are three different versions of the song, the first time I heard the main one on the radio, the groovy fast version, I loved it immediately. I never saw that Batman movie anyway, I just heard that piece and it moved me. Great Pumpkins, I saw them live "free" here in Italy in a small town next to my little home country near Modena, just a couple of years before this single came out; I knew only "Gish" back then, their super GREAT debut album I still love today in 2024 -what a fantastic record❣❣❣ CIAO! 👍🏻🎸✌🏿
There is only one band to make this song and that's the Smashing the Pumpkins. The original version was on The Batman and Robin Soundtrack. A remix was made and used with The Watchmen trailer and possibly its soundtrack
The first time I heard that The Pumpkins did a song for the watchmen, I was like "Nah, that's not they're style, they couldn't pull it off...". I was wrong, they fucking nailed it! thank you so much for existing to give us your beautiful music, Billy.
+Bradley Green Hmm...that's the difference between a great comic book movie and great movie but few people get it. As a comic book adaptation, it is the best but may be not that great as a movie. The Dark Knight may be one of the best movies out there BUT as a comic book movie, it sucks big big time.
+Bradley Green Some of Stanley Kubrick's most celebrated and iconic films were regarded as 'box-office'flops' at their release. Now they are held as examples of perfectionist directing and are the object of conspiracy theories and occult prophecy.
You should get into black metal then. I mean, the genre covers stuff that sounds like this too, except the vocals might sound like distant crows or ghosts crying. It can get pretty atmospheric and gothic and dark. Or... it can be super energetic and the vocals are understandable, even if extreme lol. Honestly, this song would've been my gateway into metal, but ... I'm discovering it in 2022 haha
Compared to Lion King,Avengers: Endgame,Easter Story and Return of the Jedi,this Film also has a Similar story on how they Sacrifice sacrifice themselves to save those they love.
This movie is so fucking underrated. I rewatched it the other day and it is honestly one of my favorite movies of all time. And I love that it stays so close to the graphic novel.
+Bassist1996 Yep, I was unfamiliar with the Watchmen when it hit theaters, so my buddy let me borrow that graphic novel before I checked out the movie. Definitely did stay very close to the source material.
I agree and liked it when I first saw it in theatres. Then I saw the full extended cut, which is 3 hours and 35 mins long, and that made me like it even more. Same with Batman V Superman, theatre cut was ok but confusing. Ultimate cut made sense and made me like it a lot. If only the studios would let Snyder complete a movie without going cut crazy the end result might be better.
Bassist1996 aside for a few things- like the midget crime boss being small and instead should have been fat. And Dr Manhattan’s nuclear bombs going off at the films climax should have been an alien/mutation/thing “attack” staged completely by Ozymindias
Bassist1996 the film misses nearly every subtextual element of the source material, what’s more it entirely missed the whole point. I just chalk it up to Snyder plain and simply not understanding.
I just lost my oldest, Jetta. About two weeks ago I had to put him to sleep. He was 20 1/2. I’m a vet tech so I spend a lot of resources on bloodwork and special diets as needed. Thank you! Ivan has been to specialists.
"Our Cold War with the Russians isn't based on ideology. Its based on fear. Fear of not having enough. But, if we can make resources infinite, we make war obsolete." -Ozymandias
Great song, great comic, great film. The only problem are the people in the comments acting edgy and hating on mainstream comic book films to make Watchmen seem better. Moore doesn't need that. His story is good enough. We can like Watchmen, DC, Marvel...
"The world will look up and shout : Save us! And I will whisper : No " I love this part. From the moment I've heard it in the trailer I connect it with this film.
If this movie had been released 10 years later, right after the MCU hype peaked, it would've had much more impact. It would've blown people's minds, subverting all of the themes that made the MCU so endearing. It addresses the tough questions that the MCU ignored about what it means for superheroes to "fight for the fate of earth and humanity". How could heroes, who dedicate their lives to saving a complicated species that constantly sabotages itself, end up anything other than utterly naive, insane, or numb?
Exactly, Watchmen was the right movie made on the wrong time, if it was released after Avengers: Endgame, in 2019, would have been much more impact and would have changed the superhero genre in the movies, like the graphic novel did for the superhero comics. But I also feel like Nolan's The Dark Knight, Logan and Joker do that a little bit.
It's ok. Let this generations kids enjoy MCU until they see Infinity War, get their mind blown there, get a commercial copout with Endgame, then drop Watchmen on them (in a guided manner and NOT the modern one obviously).
Such a perfect choice for a trailer song. The darker, B-side of a song made for Batman being used for a movie about flawed, morally questionable superheroes.
Same here, and these kids also fail to realize that Smashing Pumpkins made both versions of this song for the B & R soundtrack, they didn't exist beforehand. These songs will always belong to B & R
"The beginning is the end is the beginning" is the perfect song for Watchmen. The title itself summarizes the movie perfectly. But "The end is the beginning is the end" also fits the Batman and Robin movie perfectly. It's amazing that 2 completely different movies can share seemingly different songs that are essentially the same song.
Saw this movie just a week ago for the first time since I was a kid. Such a beautifully crafted graphic novel film by one of my all-time favorite movie directors.
I never heard of watchmen before but the trailer with this song made me want to watch it, then I forgot about it lol and when I was at a flea market I saw it for $2 and got it and holy shit, I've been looking for it on blu-ray since then lol awesome movie

If you really want to get deep check out the soundtrack of the movie Ransom.
best comics movie ever, im so sad this is SO underated, probably cause of unknown comics or not major actors, but this is absolute masterpiece, all characters are very interesting, there is no funny jokes like in dc/marvel universe movie, its dark, realistic, a lot of cool historical stuff combined into story, just amazing stuff
FriskyDingo0347 I think you meant both songs are on the soundtrack, because this one, and the one we're commenting on, are both the same. O_o This conversation seems like it's a lot older than what it really is.
The DC fan will shout "Give us the Snyder Cut of Justice League !", and I'll whisper "No". - Warner Bros. Edit : Nevermind, can't wait for this movie to finally be released. Would prefer to see it in theatre though.
90s were sheer perfection for me as well. I mean, right down to location, weather, the land that wasn't developed yet, I have a few regrets like not exploring more of my own state at that age. But school, girls, friends, teachers, vibe, music, my first car, everything was literally... perfect.
I loved this song when I was a kid, listening to it on the Batman & Robin soundtrack. I was so happy to relive that when the Watchmen trailer came out. Still amazing and better than the fast version IMO.
M Errington You maybe right. It is not listed as one of the tracks in the official soundtrack. Whereas in the Batman and Robin soundtrack, it is the very first track.
@@djeff37a No, it's the last track. The End is the Beginning is the End is at the beginning of the soundtrack, and the Beginning is the End is the Beginning is at the end.
It's on the Batman and Robin soundtrack from 1997. Never watched the movie so don't know if it's in it, but this is the crown jewel of that movie's soundtrack
I saw them perform this live not even 2 years ago now in Sacramento, summer of 2018. Was one of the best surprises of the show and one of the highlights of my life.
One of the best superhero movies I’ve ever seen in my entire life. The fact that it was so faithful to the graphic novel and the character’s personality were tied so close to graphic novel made it so much better in a film perspective. Zack Snyder made a risky ballsy move making this graphic novel into a movie. Hence why he is one of my favorite filmmakers out there
It still angers me greatly how vastly unappreciated this movie is. Watchmen is one of my favorite books ever. And the movie was as faithful as it could be. yes they changed the means to the end but the over all narrative is still the same!
That's so true the book and the movie were so realistic and similar. The movie was long but it had a good cast and story. My favorite along with Sin City.
The same could be argued about Man of Steel, but ultimately just because a movie does enough things right on paper doesn't mean the execution is there, such is the shortcoming of many of Snyder's works.
I loved this movie, it wasn't simplistic, it had depth which was really awesome. One of my favorite hero movies, the darkness and complication in the plot was brilliant.
I agree! The graphic novel gets all this praise by everyone yet the movie, which followed the comic almost word for word gets criticism. I just don't get it. Watchmen in my opinion is one of the best super hero films ever made.
Even when I was a kid and listened to this version and its "alter ego" (the end is the beginning) on the very same Batman & Robin soundtrack, I was shocked that this one didn't get any attention at all. Even the verses are different for crying out loud! (With exception to the chorus of course) But both show great poetic aspects of the hero's dilemma in different ways. I wish the movie they were originally for lived up to how good both songs were, but thankfully at least Watchmen recognized this.
I was looking for this song forever. When Watchmen first came put in '09, the song caught my attention with its gloomy atmosphere and eeriness. Thank you so much!
I didn't like BVS even after the cut. It was not good at all. And the lord of the rings trilogy was really good either way honestly just the cut is a little better
"I’ve walked across the sun. I’ve seen events so tiny and so fast they hardly can be said to have occurred at all, but you… you are a man. And this world’s smartest man means no more to me than does its smartest termite". - Dr. Manhattan
I actually went to see them on Thursday... I forgot that I would have loved for them to play this song but they didn't. They did play The Crying Tree of Mercury though. Equally powerful in my opinion.
"There's going to be a war between hope and despair. Love and apathy. Faith and disbelief. When I was outside of time, I felt their presence. I tried to see who it was. I couldn't, but I know they're out there. And they're waiting to attack again for some reason. I can feel it. Even now Barry... We're being watched." - Wally West - DC Universe Rebirth
Thank you so much for uploading this. I've loved this version of the song since seeing the trailer all those years ago. Still one of my favorite tracks of all time

The shadow lost beside me

best comics movie ever, im so sad this is SO underated, probably cause of unknown comics or not major actors, but this is absolute masterpiece, all characters are very interesting, there is no funny jokes like in dc/marvel universe movie, its dark, realistic, a lot of cool historical stuff combined into story, just amazing stuff
it is the perfect film.
+MindaugasLegend Probably because people thought the story was slow, also its ratings were average.
Unknown comic? This is one of the biggest, most widely appreciated graphic novels ever written...
+JoshuaKaluba its even the ONLY comic-book in the top 200 best written-story of 20th century according to americans reader and time magazine
+JoshuaKaluba It's highly appreciated, not widely. That's a key difference
I really like this version better than the one used in Batman. It's the whole gloomy tone to it that makes it seem more interesting.
I agree
"this song was in.." - "the version you're commenting on"
Both are the same. so you're saying this song, and this song are on the soundtrack.
-_-
FriskyDingo0347
I think you meant both songs are on the soundtrack, because this one, and the one we're commenting on, are both the same.
O_o This conversation seems like it's a lot older than what it really is.
+Kain Christ Oh god! Everything is better than that "film" called Batman and Robin
starkingbiker Which is worse, Catwoman or Batman & Robin?
The DC fan will shout "Give us the Snyder Cut of Justice League !", and I'll whisper "No".

Edit : Nevermind, can't wait for this movie to finally be released. Would prefer to see it in theatre though.

Lol
Oh, they'll give it to us. It'll just take then 26 years like with the Richard Donner cut of Superman II
🥺😭
This music is, one of the biggest reasons why I miss the 90s so much!
90s were sheer perfection for me as well. I mean, right down to location, weather, the land that wasn't developed yet, I have a few regrets like not exploring more of my own state at that age. But school, girls, friends, teachers, vibe, music, my first car, everything was literally... perfect.
Not a 90 kids but i get it, everything is a clutter of stuff nowdays
This song is beyond. A perfect Tribute to all jewels of underground comic-book masterpieces.
Such a delightfully dark song
I loved this song when I was a kid, listening to it on the Batman & Robin soundtrack. I was so happy to relive that when the Watchmen trailer came out. Still amazing and better than the fast version IMO.
Arguably the greatest comic book film ever made.
This movie was simply a piece of art.
Such a great graphic novel...the movie came out as well as it could considering and this song just NAILS it!
Couldn't agree more with that
I first heard this on the Batman and Robin Soundtrack. Then the Watchmen came out and it was revived as the theme for that movie.
Daryl J I don't think it was ever actually played at any point in the Watchmen movie. It was the song on the trailer.
M Errington
You maybe right. It is not listed as one of the tracks in the official soundtrack. Whereas in the Batman and Robin soundtrack, it is the very first track.
@@djeff37a No, it's the last track. The End is the Beginning is the End is at the beginning of the soundtrack, and the Beginning is the End is the Beginning is at the end.
It's on the Batman and Robin soundtrack from 1997. Never watched the movie so don't know if it's in it, but this is the crown jewel of that movie's soundtrack
Came here after the Snyder Cut!!!! Awesome!!!
The only good thing to come out of Batman & Robin (was the OST)
Whats the soundtrack called?
+Gucci Quique it is the reverse order of this, "the end is the beginning is the end"
And Poison Ivy
didnt george clooney come out yet?
This rendition of it's still better.
I saw them perform this live not even 2 years ago now in Sacramento, summer of 2018. Was one of the best surprises of the show and one of the highlights of my life.
this song just MAJESTIC!
I love them, and this is one of their best
Probably the most menacing song I ever heard in my life. But at the same time it makes me feel powerful.
One of the best superhero movies I’ve ever seen in my entire life. The fact that it was so faithful to the graphic novel and the character’s personality were tied so close to graphic novel made it so much better in a film perspective. Zack Snyder made a risky ballsy move making this graphic novel into a movie. Hence why he is one of my favorite filmmakers out there
Who's listening in 2024
Me hell yea
Here!
This shit slaps
Still a Banger
Right now
It still angers me greatly how vastly unappreciated this movie is. Watchmen is one of my favorite books ever. And the movie was as faithful as it could be. yes they changed the means to the end but the over all narrative is still the same!
I think its awesome, as good as TDK but critics are just snobs
That's so true the book and the movie were so realistic and similar. The movie was long but it had a good cast and story. My favorite along with Sin City.
The same could be argued about Man of Steel, but ultimately just because a movie does enough things right on paper doesn't mean the execution is there, such is the shortcoming of many of Snyder's works.
I loved this movie, it wasn't simplistic, it had depth which was really awesome. One of my favorite hero movies, the darkness and complication in the plot was brilliant.
I agree! The graphic novel gets all this praise by everyone yet the movie, which followed the comic almost word for word gets criticism. I just don't get it. Watchmen in my opinion is one of the best super hero films ever made.
Thanks for uploading this version. It's my favorite one.
3:00 this is what i call a fucking badass bass
+DarkVortex42 Mm-hm
It's too late... and it always has been.
This really takes me back. I love this movie so much. Thanks for posting this.
Even when I was a kid and listened to this version and its "alter ego" (the end is the beginning) on the very same Batman & Robin soundtrack, I was shocked that this one didn't get any attention at all. Even the verses are different for crying out loud! (With exception to the chorus of course) But both show great poetic aspects of the hero's dilemma in different ways. I wish the movie they were originally for lived up to how good both songs were, but thankfully at least Watchmen recognized this.
This song fits excellent for Zack Snyder's Justice League cut
I was looking for this song forever. When Watchmen first came put in '09, the song caught my attention with its gloomy atmosphere and eeriness. Thank you so much!
Simply outstanding work from Corgan and clan. Deep, complex, and haunting. I think of this song out of the blue now and then, and I have to hear it.
One of the best comic films ever put to screen.
Most underrated movie EEEVVVEEERRR!!!!!!
Not true this is right where it belongs, higher than anything DC today and lower than anything that is an amazing movie or masterpiece.
No. No, it doesn't.
No, its pretty bad. Not as bad as people say, but its pretty bad
I never count anything besides theater releases, but I'm sure that cut makes it better
I didn't like BVS even after the cut. It was not good at all. And the lord of the rings trilogy was really good either way honestly just the cut is a little better
“I’m not locked in here with you… you’re locked in here with ME!!” Best superhero quote
"I’ve walked across the sun. I’ve seen events so tiny and so fast they hardly can be said to have occurred at all, but you… you are a man. And this world’s smartest man means no more to me than does its smartest termite".

Reader: No- (*Gets vaporized*)
Dr. Manhattan: He was so strange.
HAHAHAHA
In the end, nothing ever ends.
I loved the Watchmen movie. This song is originally from the Batman and Robin soundtrack (1997); it was so good then & I still love it
Was just about to write the same thing. You deserves more thumb ups, you!
The directors cut is the most faithful adaption from print to film ever. EVER.
Is it the one it lasts 215 minutes?
Can't beat Sin City, It's impossible.
The Ultimate Cut really beats Sin City. I mean, even the pirate history is included.
MrJmaldo05 dude I bought it over the summer, and I loved it.
if we're talking just comic books, yeah. Including books though? No.
I remembered this one and had to piece together bits and pieces of it and the source. So beautiful.
Just went to a smashing pumpkins concert. They didn't play this. I cri evrytime.
I actually went to see them on Thursday... I forgot that I would have loved for them to play this song but they didn't. They did play The Crying Tree of Mercury though. Equally powerful in my opinion.
AllThemWitches Was marilyn manson with them when you were there?
They probably don't play it because some of the sounds are made by a cpu
PigInATuxedo Yep!
AllThemWitches I was at the same concert!

Sick song! Gives me the chills everytime
Thank you so much for uploading this. I've loved this version of the song since seeing the trailer all those years ago. Still one of my favorite tracks of all time
Love these dark song with this sort of tone
Know any others??? :)
In division and paper lung by underoath
Send a heartbeat to
The void that cries through you
Relive the pictures that have come to pass
For now we stand alone
The world is lost and blown
And we are flesh and blood disintegrate
With no more to hate
Is it bright where you are
Now the people changed?
Does it make you happy, you're so strange?
And in your darkest hour
I hold secret's flame
We can watch the world devoured in its pain
Delivered from the blast
The last of a line of lasts
The pale princess of a palace cracked
And now the kingdom comes
Crashing down undone
And I am a master of a nothing place
Of recoil and grace
Is it bright where you are
Now the people changed?
Does it make you happy, you're so strange?
And in your darkest hour
When I hold secret's flame
We can watch the world devoured in its pain
Time has stopped before us
The sky cannot ignore us
No one can separate us
For we are all that is left
The echo bounces off me
The shadow lost beside me
There's no more need to pretend
'Cause now I can begin again
Is it bright where you are
Now the people changed?
Does it make you happy, you're so strange?
And in your darkest hour
I hold secret's flame
We can watch the world devoured in its pain
Strange
Strange
Strange
3:00-3:17, beautiful and haunting at the same time!
Thats my favorite part of the song!
@@nenarosebud658 YES!! GOD BLESS YOU!!
This was the greatest trailer ever crafted.
