It is very true that each life is so unique that the chances of any one of them occurring again is longer than the Universe has been around. Even a twin or a clone will be unique in there on way, to be honest no body really understands totally how humans are like they are. Really we shouldn't be this unique, I mean electrons are electrons, hydrogen is hydrogen any where in the universe, yet we are made of these things and still unique. It's cool and strange to think about.
A thermodynamic miracle is an event so improbable... This is a self-defeating statement by Dr. Manhattan who sees the past, the present, and the future in parallel. Nothing is probabilistic but predetermined for him. But then again, it helped him convince the chick, so all was well.
dr. manhattan, ssj infinity gogeta, omnipotent total omniscient beings, gods, omniverses, omni absolute Godverses, omni totalities, endless omnipotence hierarchy, perfect Godmalpha totalities/entities, as well as anything and everything imaginable, is an example of what posthumans will be like in the 2050s. fact
What Dr. M says applies to all people, "to distill such specific a form from the chaos." Every living form, every human being, every personality that has existed or will exist will never be repeated again in the breadth of all eternity. We are all more beautiful and precious than we can ever realize. This truth, I hope one day, will move enough people to turn from anger and hate, and rather, embrace and love eachother in this one life we will get. We exist therefore the miracle has occured.
I agree, except for one thing. You said we will only exist once in eternity but something that can exist will exist again and again considering all is eternal.
@ChocolateFlux Your right. I think it is quite possible that "we" keep existing forever and ever as the universes are created and destroyed. The only thing is, if this is the case, our brains which constitute us are destroyed between existence making it impossible to remember an existence before or a certainty of an existence to come again. When dead, there is nothing relative to measure time so, certainly if what you say is so, we are instantly in our next existence no matter how long it takes.
It could take a billion trillion trillion years...whatever right lol....before YOU repeat an existence again, but that time scale would be instananeous to your conciousness. This is speculation though, and even if it is so, you still only have the ability to exist as a real and tangible thing ONCE as far as your point of view is concerned. So even if we do exist eternally, we can never KNOW it for sure and certainly never experience more than one life so this life can be said to be the only one.
Look at yourself, now back to me, now back at yourself, now back to me! Sadly, you're not me. But if you had been caught in an intrinsic field remover, you could be me. Look down, back up. Where are you? You're on mars, with the man you worship as god. What's in your hand? Back at me! I have it. It's some moles of oxygen, that thing you need. Look again. The oxygen is now diamonds! Anything is possible when you are Dr. Manhattan. I'm on the sun.
This is one of those lines that you wish you could use in real life, but the circumstances are so unique that it would probably be one in a billion chance of using it.
@Alkhemist10 Well excuse me if I don't trust you, especially since you're named "alkhemist".
How exactly is the universe tuned for life if life can only live in a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a fraction....
@Travaillons I beg to differ. What exactly is wrong with my name? 'travaillons'?... Everything on the planet for one is alive, animal life, plant lift, microbe life, mineral life, etc. If life evolves to its environment, then there is probably life everywhere in the universe, but perhaps different than what we would perceive. We look for water on other planets that could support life, but in reality other forms may not even need water. Life evolves out the the fundamental laws of physics.
@Alkhemist10 Someone who tries to turn lead into gold? That's why.
Yes, but we have yet to find life anywhere else in our solar system, and even if there are other planets with life (probably are), they still only make up a tiny tiny fraction of the universe.
I love this bit but do think the whole quote in Watchmen adds even more sadness and sheer longing to it. To make something so loving and worshipping and mortally faulted out of pure pure physics....and then slip in Jimi Hendrix XD! All Hail Alan Moore
I think Jon really loves Laurie but he already knows that their relationship is not meant to be. It's too bad because I think they are such an amazing couple. <3 this entire scene gave me goosebumps when I watched it. Jon might try to hide it but like Adrian said Jon's little facial twitches might go unnoticed to most people but to him he might as well be sobbing.
so beautiful. Doctor Manhattan is my favorite super hero because he has something no other hero i know has - an view on the world and universe unfathomable to mankind.
We could go even further. When the universe was created and only helium and hydrogen was present, so many coincidences transpired to create mass, gravity etc. A careful string of events, that created stars, which exploded and released material that eventually created the Earth and with that... life itself. From thereon, single-celled organisms mutated endlessly until finally we're all sitting here... on Youtube. If that's not a "miracle", I don't know what is. I'm an agnostic btw.
@mzgemini0006 A thermodynamic miracle is an event so unlikely, it's effectively impossible, such as oxygen spontaneously becoming gold. What Jon means here is that we were conceived entirely by coincidence, by nature. The fact that our parents met to conceive us, and that their parents met to concieve them, etc. to create us as an entirely unique individual is, ironically, almost impossibly miraculous and therefore each individually a thermodynamic miracle. He means life is miraculous.
Christ, I got chills when I saw this in the theater. Never even read the graphic novel. But when he concludes with those words and "All Along the Watchtower" started playing I honestly felt like my soul and life is no mistake, that God intended for me to exist and that it's not a joke. You matter. You are specifically apart of the bigger equation and God loves you.
"Come...dry your eyes, for you are life, rarer than a quark and unpredictable beyond the dreams of Heisenberg; the clay in which the forces that shape all things leave their fingerprints most clearly."
the first time i saw the movie, when rock music started playing, i thought that was the end of the movie, and you know what, i wouldn't have complained much
@fxckyouuuu Thermodynamics is more than the study of heat. It's the study of energy and how nature works. How things tend to disorder, to chaos. The increase of entropy of a system.
So, among all that chaos, the unpredictable happened, making it a thermodynamic miracle.
Astronomical odds of occuring? *sigh*, silly Jon you can't make assertions like that after the matter and attribute said meaning. No wonder Ozymandias was more intelligent.
Everything I love about this scene is undermined when the computer pulls back to reveal they're standing in a smiley crater. But I still love it despite this gigantic annoyance. So I guess that's a miracle. Like turning air into gold. Or dog biscuits into $100 bills.
I love it so much i would take it home and make love to it so there will be many little amazing moments that i can raise and i would buy a big house so me and my family of moments can live in it :D
First saw the movie and went strait to the comicstore I normaly bought my comic bokks when i was a kid and ordered it right away!
Yeah, they're missing the line... but that's the thing about editing. The point is made, and the realization of the miracle of life has already been pointed out. Any more just starts to inch towards overkill
"Now dry your eyes and let's go home" and then the powerful riffs of Jimi Hendrix caught me in surprise, and I actually yelled in the movies. That scene coudn't have a more perfect editing.
Aww, who knew scientists could b so romantic? :3 I liked these 2 together... u know b4 he turned @ th end of the movie & made me hate him (stupid m*%^F#@!! killing my baby Warshack! D:<)
@katmannsson then that is your path in life i hope you find your answers just don't forget where you started and always keep thinking. Also ask why because wether people realize it you can't help but move forward because everthing moves in the universe. actually its multiverse.
I'm glad that quote was taken out. At first it sounds very poetic in a scientific way, then the last bit has too much of a theological overtone. Seeing the Doc go from Mr. Quantum to Mr. Maybe God Exists is just not my cup of tea, though one could easily interpret the comic's quote a lot of different ways.
@BeamMeUpPicard i really dont see how it relates to how god exists or not Manhattan is just saying even though Laurie is a offspring of the comedian she still is someone of great value as a human being
i remember watching this movie on opening weekend and having people stand up at the end of that scene thinking the movie was over :S expecting all along the watchtower to lead into the credits
sensitive guy points are invaluable. next time you watch forrest gump with a woman poke yourself in the eyes when he says" i may not be a smart man jenny, but i know what love is"..... guaranteed points. or you could do what i do and actually cry.....NIAGRA FALLS!
@weekevypeepants I agree. I hate douchebags that want to be with a woman so bad they will suck up and metaphorically castrate themselves. I'd rather be alone any day of the week. Ironically, despite what some women and certainly feminists say, your chances of getting girls in the first place is less if you are willing ot be led like a little bitch by them. He'll be a good little married bitch one day, doing as he's told while his wife despises him and probably fucks around on him.
if he can see into the future and the past doesnt he violate the laws of thermodynamics, he also has negative entropy, so why does he just look into a mirror.
no, for Dr. Manhattan, there is no past or future. Everything is happening at the present for him. Laurie being born is happening to Dr. Manhattan right now, while Him working in Vietnam is happening to him at the same time. For Dr. Manhattan, time does not exist because he is able to see the world as it is happening.
@thesparitan check out "flatland: a romance of many dimensions" by edwin abbott abbott, i think that's where moore may have got at least part of the idea for dr manhattan's perception of time.
this scene is fantastic. but you're all right that the graphic novel is better.... although i'm glad someone made this film... quite an acheivement really....
Just having base water, and having it go through a grapevine, diluted with natural sugars produced using sunlight, then stored in the fruiting bodies of those vines and then the juices removed and left to ferment and thus a miracle! Water into wine! Truly miraculous.
And such miracles are everywhere around us. Not Jesus in a slice of toast. Just the slice of toast is a miracle of biochemistry and physics.
@Willothemask nope its not is it? because it happend. A miracle is an unexpected event attributed to divine intervention. So no, life is not a miracle its just extremely unlikely.

@cybernako088 Maybe for some but I prefer to understand others on a sublime level than to not understand them nearly as well as I Do now.

@katmannsson then that is your path in life i hope you find your answers just don't forget where you started and always keep thinking. Also ask why because wether people realize it you can't help but move forward because everthing moves in the universe. actually its multiverse.

I'm glad that quote was taken out. At first it sounds very poetic in a scientific way, then the last bit has too much of a theological overtone. Seeing the Doc go from Mr. Quantum to Mr. Maybe God Exists is just not my cup of tea, though one could easily interpret the comic's quote a lot of different ways.

@BeamMeUpPicard i really dont see how it relates to how god exists or not Manhattan is just saying even though Laurie is a offspring of the comedian she still is someone of great value as a human being

@greenzombiemonkey Wow, people are idiots! How could they think that's the ending...unless they weren't paying attention to the movie at all?

@weekevypeepants I agree. I hate douchebags that want to be with a woman so bad they will suck up and metaphorically castrate themselves. I'd rather be alone any day of the week. Ironically, despite what some women and certainly feminists say, your chances of getting girls in the first place is less if you are willing ot be led like a little bitch by them. He'll be a good little married bitch one day, doing as he's told while his wife despises him and probably fucks around on him.

if he can see into the future and the past doesnt he violate the laws of thermodynamics, he also has negative entropy, so why does he just look into a mirror.
thesparitan 2 years ago
no, for Dr. Manhattan, there is no past or future. Everything is happening at the present for him. Laurie being born is happening to Dr. Manhattan right now, while Him working in Vietnam is happening to him at the same time. For Dr. Manhattan, time does not exist because he is able to see the world as it is happening.

@thesparitan check out "flatland: a romance of many dimensions" by edwin abbott abbott, i think that's where moore may have got at least part of the idea for dr manhattan's perception of time.

Turning water into wine is a miracle
Just having base water, and having it go through a grapevine, diluted with natural sugars produced using sunlight, then stored in the fruiting bodies of those vines and then the juices removed and left to ferment and thus a miracle! Water into wine! Truly miraculous.
And such miracles are everywhere around us. Not Jesus in a slice of toast. Just the slice of toast is a miracle of biochemistry and physics.
Love our world, it's a true Miracle.

@Willothemask nope its not is it? because it happend. A miracle is an unexpected event attributed to divine intervention. So no, life is not a miracle its just extremely unlikely.
