The Watchmen Easter eggs thread...

[Cap'n Cook]

A metro is a straight guy who dresses well and is polite so everyone thinks he's gay.

WTF?

 

[CelticPredator]

I don't mind the implication since it is, in a way,in the book. I just didn't care for the BOYS folder...seemed pretty adolescent for the smartest man in the world. I didn't mention it earlier because I couldn't remember if the file was in the book.

It wasnt. It was just a little in joke for the fans.

It doesn't even matter.... It's just a little in joke that you can blink and miss. WHO GIVES A FLYING ^^^^??!!!?!!

I feel like whatever thread I go into, there is Barbelith fighting CelticP over every single last facet of the film... blah blah blah... We get it... B isn't happy about the film, C is happy. Can't we just forget it and move the ^^^^ on already.

Unfortunately Josh....that isn't the way.....why would one save a thread about a movie he no longer has any stake in?

The banter will continue back and forth to continue far through the DVD release....only to end in a Mod locking the thread to have it visual disappear....

 

[DarkArtist81]

Yeah, I think so... It's just tiring.

 

[Shropt]

Anyone else notice that you can see Dr. M's wang in the movie?!?

Actually Barbelith did give it a 6.5/10 I believe. I think he is just really good at conveying what he felt was wrong with the film, so you think he really hates it.

Perhaps i'll create some life on another thread.

Exactly... I know he doesn't HATE the movie, he is just very very well versed in how to express his dislike of something.

And good quote CelticP..

Gracias. I just lent out my GN so I couldn't check it.

 

[CelticPredator]

[Nocturne]

[JonnyReedie]

I liked the movie a lot but I still think it's flawed.

One more note on the "gay" thing - I completely missed that Captain Metropolis and Hooded Justice were gay lovers until I saw the set-up for the Minute Men picture in the film. I had gotten that Silk Spectre I was a beard for HJ, but not about Metropolis. But in the book there's a reference to "Nelly" getting upset with HJ.

How did you miss it in the book? Shameful Dave, just shameful.

In one of the "Under the Hood" sections he talks about how there were other homosexuals in the Minute Men that kept quite about it". And when The Comedian is attempting to Rape Silk Spectre I HJ breaks in and starts beating the crap out of Comedian. Comedian responds by saying "Is this what gets you off?". Seemingly refering to his homosexuality as well condeming his reason for being a super hero as a homosexual fetish for beating men.

Edit: 1000th post! Woohoo.

But, but he's a German bodybuilder!

I think Hooded Justice was into some rough stuff as well. It was mentioned when they were talking about him and Nelly fighting if I am not mistaken.
