Who Watches the Watchmen?

I'm not really sure who's who or which is which in this case but apparently, some tug-of-war between Fox and Warner Bros regarding the "rights" for Watchmen has threatened the release of this film which scheduled for early next year. I'm not really into the news, but fans has threatened that should Watchmen really be pulled off of the release date, they would unanimously boycotted any films released from the Fox's vault.
