Today I learned that Germany in 1917 was a super awesome place for black people. Like, amazingly awesome.

Even in the middle of WWI this was apparent to the average black American soldier.

Well I have no idea what's going on now other than I'm convinced that 'Will' is Hooded Justice...friends in high places indeed! Was a nice touch that in the American Hero Story (awesome X rating for that with all the disclaimers) showed Hooded Justice as clearly a white dude.

Yeah it's Ozymandias. I thought it may have been Dr. Manhattan at first too, but it's definitely Veidt now.

they took away the vag shots, and i said nothing because i knew most of them were merkins,
they took away the anal scenes, and i said nothing because poop comes from there,
they took away away the ass shots, and i said nothing because i'm not an ass man,
they took away the titty shots, and i said nothing because most of them were fake,
they took away 60 year old men banging 22 year old sluts and I said nothing because I am a father,
and now we are left only with blue dong because I did not speak out


Its gotten real bad in movies now too, "comedies" get their R rating thru dick shots. What a world.

I watched the first episode of this last night and I can only describe it so far as weird and boring.

It's riddled with RaCiSm nonsense throughout, opening with a 1920's era scene where black people are being mass lynched in the town center by KKK whiteys and the Red Baron dropping bombs out of a WW I era plane.

The only "superhero" is just some normie black mom who talks about finding a babysitter to fight crime and managed to take on a team of white nationalists on her own.

Show so far is basically SJW porn for angry black people.

That letter is a real letter that was dropped on black troops.


The Tulsa Riots also happened. Like that? No idea, but there were reports of several planes dropping "turpentine bombs" on buildings and several buildings caught fire from the roof down.

You boys should love this show. It's depicting what the world goes to after a swing from a far right Nixonian world to the a far left Redford (lul) world. As it goes on you're going to see more and more wrong with the highly liberalized society. I think the point is that left or right, both sides can't get it right.

I liked Episode 1, 2 is just stupid slow except for one whole scene out of the hour. I'll give it a chance, but I'm skeptical.

Look at the picture in this article. They just levelled the whole place and took anything of value. Also note they're looking for the mass graves that had to have been used for the amount of people that were killed.


As far as episode 2, slow? You had the flash back to what White Night, the kicking ass in Nixonville, all the stuff with Goesset Jr., Veidt is clearly up to something.

I think if you're a Watchman fan it's hard not to appreciate all the little details so far. The Night Owl's stuff is clearly the basis for what the cops use now. The New Frontiersman is the paper of record. Hooded Justice was awesome. Maybe the story will be shit in the end but I'm entertained.

Episode 1, had me saying 'what the fuck is happening' quite a bit. Episode 2 was better. This show is giving me a Heroes (the first iteration from NBC) vibe. Lots of questions as to what the fuck is happening..hopefully the reveal/story ends up better.

Knowing now that this is based off the events of the comic, rather than the movie is also helpful. Really enjoying the subtle throwbacks on rewatches.

Wow I can't believe those white devils destroyed black wall Street for NO REASON. Think of all the lost value in watermelon-backed securities and fried chicken futures. What a tragedy. White people are so evil.

Maybe I'm a dumbass and missed the name in both episodes, but I didn't know that Jeremy Irons character was goddamn Veidt until I checked IMDB.

It's never clearly said in the episodes so I think it's a planned reveal as one of the papers said Veidt had finally died. But it's also pretty obvious it is Veidt as he repeats and stresses the last words Dr. Manhattan said to him, only he would know that.

Edit: And yes of course he's listed that way in imdb, lol

The clones also give it away I think. Remember the comic and movie also had him cloning long extinct animals. With another 30 years to work on that technology it would make sense he could also clone humans.

You guys miss the first episode introduction where his estate entrance says VEIDT on the arch?

The second episode of HBO’s “Watchmen” dipped a little in total viewership from the series premiere, but not enough to cause any alarm from the premium cabler.

Episode drew 1.3 million total viewers across all of HBO’s platforms on Sunday night, down 13% from the series premiere which drew 1.5 million. During its 9 p.m. live airing, the show averaged 765,000 viewers, down only a fraction from 800,000 last week.

Meanwhile, total viewing for the first episode is now approaching 5 million viewers, according HBO. According to premium cabler, the premiere marked the strongest debut performance for a series on its digital platforms since the series premiere of “Westworld” in 2016.

Enjoying it so far. I’m a little worried it’s going to end up being a “Force awakens” sequel-reboot more than a true sequel or continuation of the universe. We’ll see.
