Fat Man was the name of the atomic bomb dropped on Nagasaki. The Fat Man at the fair crushes Janey's watch. There is a little boy crying at the fair. The atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima was Little Boy. It is implied that Janey is pregnant by a pulse in her belly beneath Jon's cheek. Later and she's leaving in tears. The Little Boy is crying. She lost her baby. Her watch is crushed by the Fat Man. Determinism is defined as a clock. With the atomic era their futures went out of the window.

@TechNoirReplicant Just cause he has super powers doesn't mean he doesn't display human qualities. Naked people are naked people, doesn't matter to him but i feel the fact people just ignore it is pretty unrealistic, that what I'm trying to say. I'm sure his teammates probably would've been like,"GO PUT CLOTHES ON." I don't even know the point of your reply btw, in fact all u did was call me stupid cuz he has super powers making him not human?? what. Seriously you're the idiot.
a man that can create anddestroy all life dont have to hear no shit from no one, he is god and we are ants by his eyes..... BEST HERO EVER!!! superman literaly couldnt stand 1 sec agains him
@demiser21 Cool story. Anyway of he looks human and is intelligent. I say he's human enough. I mean what if some giant naked blue alien went up to you and tried to have a normal conversation. Yah I don't think you could possibly resist feeling awkward around that or some other similar feeling.
@mikeandamina Wow, you're stupid... being naked doesn't matter at all to him. It only matters to ignorant, small minded humans like you, do. you. understand??? he has amazing super powers and cannot die, that is far from being human 'cool story. Anyway of he looks human and is intelligent. I say he's human enough..." seriously you're really really stupid.
I remember watching Watchmen the first time. I sat there with the credits rolling completely paralyzed by its depth and masterful story telling. I was totally blown away. Anyone who thinks Watchmen was bad is just another 14 yo who expected this to be Spider man or some other CGI pumped nonsense. Fuck Hollywood for not giving this movie an Oscar. After seeing the Dark Knight, I said "Great movie" and walked out, hell...i even forgot I watched it a week later. Watchmen to this day amazes me

@Hoppus217 Essentially, Watchmen takes the "hero" out of "Superhero", and to call him "one of the most interesting comic characters ever" is the height of hyperbole, given that he does a complete 180 on his apathy for human life when he finds out that Silk Spectre is the daughter of the Comedian, and by seeing a decent person who is the product of the world's biggest dick cheese, he decides life does have meaning. He is without a doubt one of the single worst characters ever conceived by man.
@JRserver Give me one realistic and good reason why someone like superman should give two shits about mankind. Any of these super intelligent super powerful beings. They have no reason. Superman and all those are childrens comic style superhero. Dr Manhattan is simply a super being. Needs an adult and a mind willing to put pieces together to understand him properly. Its not cut black and white this guys a good guy and this guy is a bad guy. The world is a lot more grey than that.
@ztunelover Uh-huh. Now, answer my question about why Dr. Manhattan, who has no reason to give two shits about humanity, does a complete 180 on that apathy because Silk Spectre II is revealed to be the daughter of the Comedian. THAT'S what it takes to get him to start caring about life?
@ztunelover That speech he gives to Silk Spectre about how he now values life and what he says at the end about how he plans to travel to another galaxy to create life may have something to do with that. And don't confuse me with the man in the mirror that you ask why you're wasting your time with every morning.
Watchmen is "a highly overrated phenonmenon" and Watchmen apologists are like people who think "Battlefield Earth" should have won the Best Picture Oscar.
@JRserver Overrated? Yes most definitely. What wins best picture doesn't matter to me, but as far as superhero style movies are concerned this is the first one to even remotely challenge my perception. It was an enjoyable movie and finally theres a super being that doesn't really care about hurting humans. Is this the greatest movie? Hell no, but its way better than the brainless crap in its genre. Haha confuse you for me. The dust under my feet are more significant than you. Good day.
@JRserver The dark knight, was far from an intellectual movie. It was an action movie, with exemplary acting from certain actors and really well finished special effects. But as for the story, it wasn't really a mind bend in any way. There was nothing to percieve except for a linear storyline executed very well. Your mind didn't have to interpret anything in it. It does in this movie.
@JRserver Watchmen and Batman are both DC comics jackass. And the superiority is a matter of opinion. Watchmen is a far better wriiten comic than batman. And honestly, what makes you think The Dark Knight is so amazing? Did you jump on the Ledger bandwagon? Your judge of movies and the characters within is embarassing.
@J7nate Watchmen and Batman both being DC characters is pretty irrelevant, here. And as to your statement that Watchmen is a better written comic than Batman, you're simply wrong. Not in my opinion, no, it is a FACT that you are WRONG.
"The Dark Knight" is the rare movie that can appeal to everyone because it has something for everyone, including people who could care less about superheroes. "Watchmen" strictly appeals to it's own cult, er, fans.
@JRserver Can't you guys agree that both were good movies? whether one is better than the other IS subject to opinion, and Ledger's death didn't effect my view of his version the the Joker. I didn't know until much later that he died, and I still though he was great. I never read the Watchmen comic and I liked it
@JRserver you know what? Fuck you! I have given you enouth reasons WHY watchmen is so appealing as a deconstruction story aswell as a superhero story, and you leap around the argument like a fucking flea! You haven't got an argument. you're just an ignorant buffoon! Marvel superheroes are just like traditional superheroes with some minor changes. Watchmen is a TRUE deconstruction of the entire genre. And how dare you get cocky with us and act like the book hasn't payed it's dues when it has.
@JRserver It's obvious you've never read the graphic novel in your life and have only ever seen the movie, otherwise you wouldn't be here, running your mouth like a jackass! Why don't you put your money where you're mouth is and actually read before you talk? Because untill that happens, i'm officialy done with you.
@JRserver you act like I'M the fanboy, but i'm not the one going ''batman rules, watchmen drools.'' constantly. I like batman, i like watchmen. Their both awesome.
@pein05 ha! Like THAT means anything to him. Watchmewn payed it's dues as a social commentary and as a superhero story. It challenges the readers perception of right and wrong and isn't afraid to speak out on stuff that most comics wouldn't tap into at the time it was made. but by the sounnds of it he's got his fingers in his ears.
"ha! Like THAT means anything to him. Watchmewn payed it's dues as a social commentary and as a superhero story.

wtf are you talking about? this isn't even what i was talking about moron
@JRserver you sir are an arrogant idiot. you fail to understand watchmen and the message that comes with it, because your mind is flooded by explosions and overblown special effects from just anouther batman movie. Which is all the dark knight is. there is only one option for you at this point. that being to shut up.
@georgemiser You're 100% right, I fail to see the message that comes with "Watchmen", because the message is complete BS. And I'm seriously beginning to wonder if you've even SEEN "The Dark Knight", given your dismissal of it as being nothing but special effects and explosions, which is like saying that "Inception" is just a lot of chase scenes and Leonardo DiCaprio fishing for an Oscar. You're just wrong, sir.
@JRserver your arrogance shows once more. you fail to see the message because the simple fact is this. your vision of what a superhero SHOULD be, is jaded. jaded to the point of superman simplicity. like i said before, admit you don't get it, and shut up. the reality is, the morals, truth, realism and the idea of what superheroes would be like if they existed on our earth with OUR physics, with only ONE true superbeing is too much for you. Cus the fact is, if mainstream crimefighters did exist
on earth, they WOULD have faults. I respect the mainstream dcuniverce as much as anyone else. but the fact is, it's not that watchmen is overated, because it isn't. Nor will it ever be. You just WANT it to be so someone will agree with you. Leave. Don't bother commeting here. just leave this vid in peace, and never come back. because here, you have no support.
@georgemiser "If mainstream crimefighters did exist on Earth, the WOULD have faults."
And apparantly, you didn't hear that characters like Spider-Man, Wolverine, the Hulk, Iron Man, and about 3 to 4 dozen others, all of whom I love, were created specifically to be flawed superheroes.
And yes, "Watchmen" is overrated, "The Dark Knight" rules, and "The Avengers", "The Amazing Spider-Man", "The Dark Knight Rises", and "The Man of Steel" will also rule. You know it in your heart to be true.
@JRserver and you know in your heart that that is bullshit. watchmen is not overated. as i said, you just want it to be. i told you not to reply. you did. automatically, you lost the argument. this is your last chance to back away and spare me exposing you as the guy, who cannot stand to have his perspective of right and wrong challenged by something like watchmen any further. prove to bme that your the better man by not replying. then maybe i might start listening to anything you say.
@georgemiser Nope, I don't want it to be. I would have LOVED to have not walked out of this pile of crap at the halfway point, and since the movie is pretty much taken verbatim from the graphic novel, I don't have to lay any blame at the feet of Zack Synder - it's all Alan Moore's fault!
And just what do you plan to do in retaliation for me replying? Is that supposed to be a threat. Ooooh, I'm shaking!
@JRserver you say you love batman, yet you talk trash about Alan Moore, who wrote the story that turned Barbera Gordon into Oracle, band gave the comic reading world the most influential origin for the joker. The Killing Joke.
@georgemiser Yes, because when I say I totally blame Alan Moore for how bad Watchmen is, I am therefore making a blanket condemnation for anything he's ever written. That's sort of like saying that Steven Spielberg is the worst director of all time because "War of the Worlds" sucked.
@JRserver It doesn't matter what you tell me. i still think you're an ideot for insulting watchmen. Maybe you'd like it more if it was the same stuff we see in all ther superhero comics, IE superheroes fighting crime, instead of something with a message. sonething philosophical that makes you question your perspective of humanity's morals. The fact is, if you took the time to listen to people explane why you're wrong, maybe you'd learn something. This argument is over. as far as i care, i win.
@georgemiser "Maybe you'd like it more if it was the same stuff we see in all ther superhero comics, IE superheroes fighting crime, instead of something with a message. sonething philosophical that makes you question your perspective of humanity's morals."
Except that "Watchmen" isn't the first comic book or movie to do that. In fact, if you watch "The Dark Knight" you can't miss it.
@georgemiser "The fact is, if you took the time to listen to people explane why you're wrong, maybe you'd learn something."
There's the pot calling the kettle black.
"This argument is over. as far as i care, i win."
I guess that explains the second comment you left after your self-proclaimed victory. I hear the special olympics is holding tryouts for tee ball. You might wanna look into it :P
@pein05 Wow. Is that really the best you've got? I'm insulted! At least the other guy had the decency to write entire paragraphs full of four letter expletives at me. That's the thing I love about Watchmen worshippers - the utter inability to defend this pile of shit they claim to be a masterpiece :P
@JRserver Suddenly, your willful ignorance makes me want to come to your home, rip your tongue out and nail it to your ass. the burden of proof is on you and always has been. utill you can prove otherwise, enjoy talking out of your ass.
@georgemiser IF the burden of proof were on my ass, I don't think you'd be so insecure in your affection for Watchmen as to threaten me for proclaiming Watchmen to be overrated and The Dark Knight to be a masterpiece. Sheesh, bro, you kiss your mother with that mouth?
@JRserver the only reason you have continued this argument to this point, is for the express reason that you hate people explaining to you all the reasons why watchmen's social and moral messages make it such a good comic, not to mention all the reasons why you're wrong. as for that cult comment? why not take a good long look in the mirror with the other Dark Knight fanboys?
@georgemiser I'll do that, and I'll walk away from the mirror that much happier that I see "Watchmen" for the highly overrated phenomenon it is and "The Dark Knight" for the masterpiece that it is :P
@J7nate Can't you guys agree that both were good movies? whether one is better than the other IS subject to opinion, and Ledger's death didn't effect my view of his version the the Joker. I didn't know until much later that he died, and I still though he was great. I never read the Watchmen comic and I liked it
@Hoppus217 But that means that Manhattan is the furthest thing from a superhero. A superhero, by definition, is a person with extraordinary powers who could, by all means, conquer the world, but instead chooses to use his or her powers to help people.
@JRserver From what I noticed manhattan isn't a superhero. Think to yourself, some minor revealations change how you look at things, would you really look at mankind, or this planet the same way again? No. Watchmen interests me because manhattan is a more realistic projection of what a superbeing would be like. This movie actually needs intelligence to interpret, as a result I say this is one of the best characters created by man.
you obviously have very little analytical skills. He's "dull" because he sees the entire universe in a completely different way than we do. His mind drifts off into his own world and he could care less about the inferior humans around him and their trivial lifestyles.
Think about it. If you were suddenly turned into a godlike being with little memory of what it is like to be "human", would you still act the same or even care about acting the same as before? I doubt it. It's simple
memory has everything to do with it. He doesn't remember what its like to perceive life as a regular human being would. He doesn't care about those lifestyles anymore, because he's come to understand the universe and life in a completely different way
"I have all these powers, but I come off as really dull....I can't even keep my girl, and I get outwitted by the villain. The best part of my character development is my cgi wanker."
amazing................lilly & carl came up from florida, they came to mom & dad's to pray for me and during the prayer i had my eyes closed and lilly was all excited (you know how she gets) and she said "OMG charlie your glowing" & i could honestly see this blue glow around me (my eyes are closed).
I think watchmen is probably one of the best movies ever made. the best superhero movie ever made for sure. so interesting and mind blowing. The best quotes ive heard are from dr manhattan.
@Hoppus217 i like your analysis but I also think that even though he doesn't care he wants to have a reason to. He wants to find something to fight for. He is one of my all time favorites
@Hoppus217 Actually i think he is the most realistic rational character(of great power).Because any creature to have the superman-like powers and have the same moral values of a still evolving low life being(a mere mortal human of the 21 century)Is a joke.It is only rational that an entity evolved to that point where it views time and space as they are.Where it has understand all the secrets of infinity,to be like and what Dr.Manhattan is.And not to be concerned with mere humans affairs.
@Volf99 I think it only looks like Pure Objectivism,but what really is going on in his mind is beyond understanding.As he is one with future and past(himself) he is one with many copies of him ,which all to different processes and much more happens in his brain at one single moment of time.Thats why he said to his girl "Only if you could perceive time as i do". That's why he looks so absent all the time.
Dr. manhattan is like a mixture beetwen superman and silver surfer, but have the mind of martian manhunter and ozimandias have the mind of batman, both are very intelligents and smart but diferents.
I love how he says "but you are going to leave disappointed" and that's exactly what happens.
A minute later in this same scene, he says "say hello to Dan for me", yet Laurie has no intention calling Dan at that moment with saying "What?", but Dr.M already seen that event unfold in his future.
@epsilon881 He knows what's going to happen, yet he's still surprised by it when it happens. He's not as excised from humanity as he believes himself to be. His view of everything being pre-determined (even his responses) reflects this.
You know, she would have stuck around for Jon. She would have. She tried so freaking hard to make their relationship work. But Jon saw it all, the whole relationship crashing down before his feet, and he did nothing to stop it because he knew he couldn't stop time. That's what I hate though. I know that if he had the choice, he would have done all he could to be with Silk. GAH. THIS COMIC IS BEAST.
"I must get back to my work..." hello?! if he's dr fucking manhattan why doesn't he duplicate himself like in every other scene.. he could still be talking to them AND continue his work simultaneosly..
@Dhurdle2 I guess when you're a immortal being to whom space and time are but the same thing, where your whole existence is made up of nothing but plot spoilers, where everyone you know and love, is everyone you've already lost and moved on from, you'd probably wonder why pants are so important, too.
The movie haters can EAD......Always talking about how the book was better.......I bet if they had seen the movie before they read the book, they would have said the movie was better.
probably right. but a lot of die-hard-fans see their literature get brought higher in some ways, and distilled in others. There's no reason Watchmen couldn't have maintained the same sincerity while rising through the movie-making vehicle. aka laurie and to a certain extent veidt.
If i could be anyone, I would be Dr Manhattan !

@J7nate Watchmen and Batman both being DC characters is pretty irrelevant, here. And as to your statement that Watchmen is a better written comic than Batman, you're simply wrong. Not in my opinion, no, it is a FACT that you are WRONG.
"The Dark Knight" is the rare movie that can appeal to everyone because it has something for everyone, including people who could care less about superheroes. "Watchmen" strictly appeals to it's own cult, er, fans.

@JRserver Can't you guys agree that both were good movies? whether one is better than the other IS subject to opinion, and Ledger's death didn't effect my view of his version the the Joker. I didn't know until much later that he died, and I still though he was great. I never read the Watchmen comic and I liked it

@JRserver you know what? Fuck you! I have given you enouth reasons WHY watchmen is so appealing as a deconstruction story aswell as a superhero story, and you leap around the argument like a fucking flea! You haven't got an argument. you're just an ignorant buffoon! Marvel superheroes are just like traditional superheroes with some minor changes. Watchmen is a TRUE deconstruction of the entire genre. And how dare you get cocky with us and act like the book hasn't payed it's dues when it has.

@JRserver you sir are an arrogant idiot. you fail to understand watchmen and the message that comes with it, because your mind is flooded by explosions and overblown special effects from just anouther batman movie. Which is all the dark knight is. there is only one option for you at this point. that being to shut up.
georgemiser 3 months ago
@georgemiser You're 100% right, I fail to see the message that comes with "Watchmen", because the message is complete BS. And I'm seriously beginning to wonder if you've even SEEN "The Dark Knight", given your dismissal of it as being nothing but special effects and explosions, which is like saying that "Inception" is just a lot of chase scenes and Leonardo DiCaprio fishing for an Oscar. You're just wrong, sir.
JRserver 3 months ago
@JRserver your arrogance shows once more. you fail to see the message because the simple fact is this. your vision of what a superhero SHOULD be, is jaded. jaded to the point of superman simplicity. like i said before, admit you don't get it, and shut up. the reality is, the morals, truth, realism and the idea of what superheroes would be like if they existed on our earth with OUR physics, with only ONE true superbeing is too much for you. Cus the fact is, if mainstream crimefighters did exist

on earth, they WOULD have faults. I respect the mainstream dcuniverce as much as anyone else. but the fact is, it's not that watchmen is overated, because it isn't. Nor will it ever be.

And apparantly, you didn't hear that characters like Spider-Man, Wolverine, the Hulk, Iron Man, and about 3 to 4 dozen others, all of whom I love, were created specifically to be flawed superheroes.
And yes, "Watchmen" is overrated, "The Dark Knight" rules, and "The Avengers", "The Amazing Spider-Man", "The Dark Knight Rises", and "The Man of Steel" will also rule. You know it in your heart to be true.

georgemiser 3 months ago
@georgemiser Nope, I don't want it to be. I would have LOVED to have not walked out of this pile of crap at the halfway point, and since the movie is pretty much taken verbatim from the graphic novel, I don't have to lay any blame at the feet of Zack Synder - it's all Alan Moore's fault!
And just what do you plan to do in retaliation for me replying? Is that supposed to be a threat. Ooooh, I'm shaking!

@georgemiser Yes, because when I say I totally blame Alan Moore for how bad Watchmen is, I am therefore making a blanket condemnation for anything he's ever written. That's sort of like saying that Steven Spielberg is the worst director of all time because "War of the Worlds" sucked.

@JRserver From what I noticed manhattan isn't a superhero. Think to yourself, some minor revealations change how you look at things, would you really look at mankind, or this planet the same way again? No. Watchmen interests me because manhattan is a more realistic projection of what a superbeing would be like. This movie actually needs intelligence to interpret, as a result I say this is one of the best characters created by man.

you obviously have very little analytical skills. He's "dull" because he sees the entire universe in a completely different way than we do. His mind drifts off into his own world and he could care less about the inferior humans around him and their trivial lifestyles.
Think about it. If you were suddenly turned into a godlike being with little memory of what it is like to be "human", would you still act the same or even care about acting the same as before? I doubt it. It's simple
