@ramonalejandrosuare Honestly, he's my favorite character, he's the biggest hero in this film. He did what he did for the greater good. Harsh, yeah. Necessary? Yeah. Dr. Manhattan got it.
i like the scene when he was the only one who watch the weakness of Dr. Manhattan even that he is so powerful kind a like a "god" he was his's ass exiled from the earth great... the first movies where the bad guy Wins..!!!
What is so fascinating about Ozymandias are those rare moments when he is emotional. Here is a man who murdered millions in the name of a greater good and doesn't bat one eye. Yet when his pet Bubastis is sacrificed for his temporary survival against Manhattan he manages to shed a tear. Its no that I think he's amoral or cold, he does cry when he realized he saved the Earth. But he is a really unique creature who doesn't relate to the rest of the world in a "normal" fashion.
If Rorschach revealed the truth it actually wouldn't have changed the new world peace. Instead of being united against fake aliens, the world would be united against the monolithic Veidt. That would be a good ending.
oh my. girls your both pretty..... pretty pathetic. Truth on the matter lies inside one's own self as long as you are human. You have one Idea and the other has one different. Whatever! Grow the hell up and realize that the differentiation in such contemplation results in a rash hammering of ideals into others. Now shut up already you babbling morons.
At First I thought Ozymandias was some sort of weak ass side kick because to me he kinda looked like one (in the movie at first) but after I saw him in action I was like Wow his definitely a Badass.
Ozymandius is Lex Luthor who decided to save the world instead of conquering it. Can't you see how similar they are? Both of them are super-smart billionaires, obsessed with ancient kings (Alexander of Macedonia), in love with the sounds of their own voices. Both created crazy plans with and sacrificed millions of people to reach their goals. The only difference is that Ozymandius succeeded. And Super-Man aka Dr. Manhattan was unable to stop him.
Could I ask you to send me this video via E-mail? I am student teaching poetry and I will be covering Shelley's Ozymandias. I'd like to use this video to make a comparison between the poem and this character. The students are seniors and have most likely seen the movie so I'd like to make the connection for attention getting purposes. Please send me a PM if you are willing to e-mail me this video. Thank you so much!
People say that he was pretentious: I don't think so. He saved the world, and I'm glad Dr Manhattan killed Rorschach, because Rorchach would have ruined everything.
@msinvincible2000 yeah but thats where the whole moral question of the book comes into it. it asks us what we think is right. it asks what we believe. would you be willing to kill thousands to save millions or do you believe that every act of "evil" should be punished.

@yaouank29 I like what he said Why save a world that cannot be saved? But If Ozys plan were to work then there would be peace and all is right in the world. But then again future powers might see differently and want to destroy that world.
Rorschach is a right-wing character. Alan Moore wrote him as one. He reads a conservative, tabloid newspaper. He's an amazingly written character, but that doesn't mean he's perfect, he has many psychological issues. He's still my favorite character, though.
Ozymandias is in a way very selfish, has an inflated ego, but everything he does he does to help others. Very pretentious.
I agree with those who said there is too less Bubi <3 in the movie..
but I guess it all depends on the lesser importance that it's given to eugenetics in the movie compared to the comic book.. there, it made much more sense for the giant squid and all.. here the focus is the nuclear/Jon's power..
but she's so sweet.. the little kitten! I want one!
I know everyone wants to focus on just the outcome. But really, how many of your friends and family would you be willing to sacrifice just for the chance of attaining world peace? How about yourself? Seems Ozy had no intention of sacrificing himself for this goal. And truly, he had no REAL certain way of knowing if his plan would work or not. Humans can be unpredictable.....the US and/or USSR could have freaked out and launched their nukes anyway. Seems like a crazy gamble.
Ah, but Adrian is supposed to be the brightest man on the world. The point is he's supposed to know... of course, he wasn't sure he'd be able to catch the bullet, I suppose your point is more... poingnant.
And technically Adrian sacrificed Baubastis, which was the one creature (living) that he felt for (everyone can say it was just a cat, but it's very clear his character was meant to love the thing)
Yes, because sadistic barbarian and a ruthless criminal slayer are far more dangerous than a man who has the power and the will the kill millions of ppl at his own whim. What happens if a few months later the US and Soviets get back after it? Is he gonna destroy another 10 or 12 cities? Why not destroy all of Russia and America too while he's at it? How about all the nuclear powers? Why stop at all? Just leave a few peaceful countries and destroy the rest. Then he can appoint himself ruler
yeah, actually I meant rightist. Sorry for the confussion :P I even learned that he was rightist from wikipedia. I just confused right and left here in my comment, boo me.
I didn't like Ozymandias because of what he done and if you seen the movie I don't think he was saving the world and you'll be shock of how he turned to the enemy's side, he wasn't really in many scenes. But it was weird that he was not the smartest man in the world, but the Dr. is. I'm not going to give all the info away, I liked him until what he done.
And people complain about the little plot differences like the lack of the squid, and the fact that they refer to themselves as "Watchmen" in the film, instead of "Minutemen" like in the book- Well, there you have it. The reason is that people can be dumb.
Haha in the book the Watchmen were called "The Crimebusters" because, it WAS the 1970s. It's such a small change and it would've knocked people off guard if they were called Crimebusters.
considering the high levels of stupidity in the United States right now (and back in 1985), i certainly don't blame Ozymandias for taking matters into his own hands. it must have been such an insult to his intelligence to see all these morons around him continually fuck up everything
and btw, whats with all this homoerotic rorschach love? the guy is a total dumbass. anyone who has lived on this planet longer than 5 years knows that seeing the world in black and white is fucking idiotic
Ok well you're entitled to your opinion, but calling him a total dumbass? No. He's alot more complex than that. All of the Watchmen characters are. I would go into detail about this but I won't waste your time.
yeah i have read watchmen (thrice actually) so I know all about rorschach's "complexities" or whatever
that being said, his view on life is fucking idiotic, just my humble opinion. Anyone who sees the world as black-and-white as he does is seriously brain dead
Well, you're the one identifying and berating these characters as though they were real ppl.........so that doesn't speak very highly of your grasp on reality either.
well i'm only doing this as a response to all these morons out here who treat rorschach like either he's the second coming of christ, or their long awaited lover, when really he's just a dumbass who wears a fugly mask. well at least he got owned in the end
No. That would've been a very bad thing. Dr. Manhatten understood Ozy's plan to achieve world peace, even if it is peace based on a lie. Peace = Peace.
No, peace through lies, murder, and deception is fascism. You can't impose peace anymore than you can raise the dead. Ozymandias was a disgusting self-righteous megalomaniac that should have been put of his misery very early. No question whatsoever that he is the true villian in every sense of the word.
@RuckusKeffufle Seriously? Ozymandias destroyed the lives of millions of people! If people found out the truth, they would still have a common enemy--Ozymandias, rather than Dr. Manhattan.
The means don't justify the ends, killing one person to save billions is wrong, let alone killing millions of people to save billions!
Still, he is a great villain, but Rorschach was the best character by far.
@contemplativegirl21 What about world war 2 then, generals had to risk the lives of soldiers to defeat the evil nazis, if they were too afraid of making tough decisions then we'd have lost.
Okay, put it this way. There's a building full of 30 infected people, with a disease that could kill mankind so quickly there would be no time to find a cure. Are you saying you would rather let billions of people die instead of just 30? the same with Ozy's plan. He cared about mankind enough to know the only way to really bring peace is to kill thousands of people. And If you don't get it, whatever, the world's life isn't on your hands, thank God.
@WixkedLovy LOL, there is a huge difference in quarantining infected people and putting a gun to someone's head and pulling the trigger, which is more analogous to what Ozy's plan entailed. Those people he killed were not infected (and even murdering an infected person would be wrong--quarantining would be a better solution). So, it would be okay for someone to bomb your whole town, killing you, your parents, your loved ones, etc. to save others? I'm glad "the world's life isn't on your hands."
I saw a show similar to this situation were a women made everyone happy and there was complete world peace, everyone was happy. But she had to eat humans to stay her human looking, because her true form was terrifying. When she was found out there was chaos and death once again.
When the "hero" confronted her about the murders and how she was the evil one she said "I killed hundreds to saves billions"
@RuckusKeffufle Why save an imperfect world? Is saving an imperfect world really saving the world at all? Ozymandias has the justice of a cold pragmatist, Rorschach has the justice of a pure-hearted child. The only way to save an imperfect world is to make it perfect. As impossible as that may be, it is the only way, any other solution merely leads to ever more of the same.
ozymandias is awesome!! i didnt like bubastis in the movie though. i mean...she looked great, but she didnt DO anything. basically all she did was die.
I love Ozymandias. Hes the perfect villian in my opioion. Usually villians are either really strong and stupied or really smart and weak. Ozy hasthe best of both worlds. He kicks ass and is smart as hell.
Actually, she was red. And the reason I was asking the question was because I thought the movie was kept rather close to the novel, so something like changing Bubastis' color made no sense to me.
well they had to change, things that in the comics look great but in live action they would look ridiculous, like for example they gave Ozymandias an armor instead of his flashy purple and yellow costume, the same with COmedians first costume it looked more like a militar overall than a clown costume, or Nite Owl costume becoming more of an armor, they would look a little too ridiculous if they were left like tighs and clown costumes.
Not enough character development with Ozymandias, Silk Spectre, or Nite Owl II in the movie version. I can see how this isn't making killer numbers at the box office. Unless you've read the comic... the whole thing is very anti-climatic for a movie that is nearly 3 hours.
it isn't making "killer numbers at the box office" becuase people in this generation are lame. They can't enjoy a movie with substance, meaning, amazing artistic picture... bcuz they're too stupid 2 comprehend it. 3 hours wasn't long enough!
yeah, the movie was excellent, but it had to be longer.
Fortunately they are going to make DVD with a longer cut, like 4 hours or something and they already did the PIrate tale and they are gonna mek (or already did?) the Under the Hood parts, but only House knows when the dvd is gonna came out
actually i'm from generation y, i love comics and the movie and book of watchmen. i also agree that it should be longer, and that the should've made the theatrical cut the director's cut with tales of the black freighter
yes Rinpoo is right. being really smart can lead to be extraordinarily strong. if u read a lot, u know what kind of exercises to do and what martial arts moves to practice in a fight. ozymandias is a very smart man, he reads a lot and he trains his body to the max.
It's definitely bcuz of his brain power. the ability to persieve action before it happens. meaning basically in a fight he's easily 2 or 3 steps ahead of his apponent, which gives him the ability 2 process every way there is to counter any type of attack. So if you already expect a move or action and have figured the way to prevent or stop it, then u seem a hell of alot stronger. I hope that even makes sense.
I agree; it's like when you know a person for a long time, you are sort of used to their reactions and personality.
Well that's his case with everyone he must come up against he could analyze in seconds, his perceptive capabilities must make everything so trivial... *sigh* frickin' awesome :P
I love Ozy, but BUBASTIS... i would spend my entire life just to create that creature.
I Goddamn love Ozymandias for creating it. but he did kill it...Motherfucker....
but unrelated, i love how they redid Ozy for the movie. in the comic he was like a gay patrick warburton pimp from the 70s. in the movie he was a smokin' hot genius with an awesome costume. the only thing that killed it was that it had nipples on it...
Incredible novel. I love how in an ironic turn Adrian is the biggest superhero and Rorschach was a rat in a maze.

It's like too much democracy kill the democracy. You might be reluctant to the idea at first but then think about it...

Ozymandias was a disgusting self-righteous megalomaniac that should have been put of his misery very early. No question whatsoever that he is the true villian in every sense of the word.

@RuckusKeffufle he did it for justice which is whats right
inyuasha98 1 year ago
@RuckusKeffufle Seriously? Ozymandias destroyed the lives of millions of people! If people found out the truth, they would still have a common enemy--Ozymandias, rather than Dr. Manhattan.
The means don't justify the ends, killing one person to save billions is wrong, let alone killing millions of people to save billions!
Still, he is a great villain, but Rorschach was the best character by far.

@korictixor So, I could kill you to save billions of people? Or, maybe kill your mom?
Rather, let me guess: You would rather I kill some random Joe? Murder--be it of you, your mom, or some random Joe--is wrong. Period.
Oh, utilitarianism. It's one of the more degrading philosophies to the dignity of the human person...I wouldn't suggest you adhere to it.

@contemplativegirl21 What about world war 2 then, generals had to risk the lives of soldiers to defeat the evil nazis, if they were too afraid of making tough decisions then we'd have lost.

Okay, put it this way. There's a building full of 30 infected people, with a disease that could kill mankind so quickly there would be no time to find a cure. Are you saying you would rather let billions of people die instead of just 30? the same with Ozy's plan. He cared about mankind enough to know the only way to really bring peace is to kill thousands of people. And If you don't get it, whatever, the world's life isn't on your hands, thank God.
WixkedLovy 1 year ago
@WixkedLovy LOL, there is a huge difference in quarantining infected people and putting a gun to someone's head and pulling the trigger, which is more analogous to what Ozy's plan entailed. Those people he killed were not infected (and even murdering an infected person would be wrong--quarantining would be a better solution). So, it would be okay for someone to bomb your whole town, killing you, your parents, your loved ones, etc. to save others? I'm glad "the world's life isn't on your hands."

I saw a show similar to this situation were a women made everyone happy and there was complete world peace, everyone was happy. But she had to eat humans to stay her human looking, because her true form was terrifying. When she was found out there was chaos and death once again.
When the "hero" confronted her about the murders and how she was the evil one she said "I killed hundreds to saves billions"
That was Ozy's point.
WixkedLovy 1 year ago
@RuckusKeffufle Why save an imperfect world? Is saving an imperfect world really saving the world at all? Ozymandias has the justice of a cold pragmatist, Rorschach has the justice of a pure-hearted child. The only way to save an imperfect world is to make it perfect. As impossible as that may be, it is the only way, any other solution merely leads to ever more of the same.

And why was she blue?? That made no sense to me. :(

because it fitted more in the colors used on the movie
childrenofthegrave1 2 years ago 2
so a purple lynx makes more sense than a blue one?
Keihzaru 2 years ago
Actually, she was red. And the reason I was asking the question was because I thought the movie was kept rather close to the novel, so something like changing Bubastis' color made no sense to me.
TheLoneOokami 2 years ago
she was more of a violet shade of red.
well they had to change, things that in the comics look great but in live action they would look ridiculous, like for example they gave Ozymandias an armor instead of his flashy purple and yellow costume, the same with COmedians first costume it looked more like a militar overall than a clown costume, or Nite Owl costume becoming more of an armor, they would look a little too ridiculous if they were left like tighs and clown costumes.

Not enough character development with Ozymandias, Silk Spectre, or Nite Owl II in the movie version. I can see how this isn't making killer numbers at the box office. Unless you've read the comic... the whole thing is very anti-climatic for a movie that is nearly 3 hours.
P1ST0NH0NDa 2 years ago
it isn't making "killer numbers at the box office" becuase people in this generation are lame. They can't enjoy a movie with substance, meaning, amazing artistic picture... bcuz they're too stupid 2 comprehend it. 3 hours wasn't long enough!

I know! It needed to be longer!

Ackles4life 2 years ago 2
yeah, the movie was excellent, but it had to be longer.
Fortunately they are going to make DVD with a longer cut, like 4 hours or something and they already did the PIrate tale and they are gonna mek (or already did?) the Under the Hood parts, but only House knows when the dvd is gonna came out

actually i'm from generation y, i love comics and the movie and book of watchmen. i also agree that it should be longer, and that the should've made the theatrical cut the director's cut with tales of the black freighter

Why was he so much more powerful than the rest of the Watchmen (excluding Manhattan, obviously).
He takes on three Watchmen, and WINS.

A lot of people don't realize that being really smart can also lead to be really tough.
Simply put: if you know more, you can do more with less.

RinpooKatt 2 years ago 6
yes Rinpoo is right. being really smart can lead to be extraordinarily strong. if u read a lot, u know what kind of exercises to do and what martial arts moves to practice in a fight. ozymandias is a very smart man, he reads a lot and he trains his body to the max.
shirairyuscorpion 2 years ago 2
Actually the only person ever to best Ozymandias,was the Comedian,in his younger days :D
isisum 2 years ago 5
It's definitely bcuz of his brain power. the ability to persieve action before it happens. meaning basically in a fight he's easily 2 or 3 steps ahead of his apponent, which gives him the ability 2 process every way there is to counter any type of attack. So if you already expect a move or action and have figured the way to prevent or stop it, then u seem a hell of alot stronger. I hope that even makes sense.
Ackles4life 2 years ago 5
I agree; it's like when you know a person for a long time, you are sort of used to their reactions and personality.
Well that's his case with everyone he must come up against he could analyze in seconds, his perceptive capabilities must make everything so trivial... *sigh* frickin' awesome :P

I love Ozy, but BUBASTIS... i would spend my entire life just to create that creature.
I Goddamn love Ozymandias for creating it. but he did kill it...Motherfucker....
but unrelated, i love how they redid Ozy for the movie. in the comic he was like a gay patrick warburton pimp from the 70s. in the movie he was a smokin' hot genius with an awesome costume. the only thing that killed it was that it had nipples on it...
