Review of Watchmen

Watchmen (2019)
9/10
Challenging & Different
23 October 2019
From all the bad reviewers that are rambling about wanting more of the same to the history of religion I can tell people have a hard time with critical thinking and patience. I get so happy when I see people announcing they're giving up after one episode. One, nobody cares. Two, it says more about you than the show. Do you judge a movie by the opening credits? Because that's what a pilot is.

Implausible? Dr. Manhattan can teleport to Mars. C'mon, the comic was an extremely exaggerated version of reality & this continues in that vein perfectly. Some of these reviewers are living in a fantasy land if they don't think these things exists or isn't a problem, and the show exaggerates it just like the comic exaggerated a lot. There's a blue dude on Mars. Squids are still coming out the sky. Anything can happen.

Slow down. Think things out. Did the first issue of the comic give away everything? No. Did the first issue have current topics of the 80s? Yes. Was it an imaginary world where superheroes exist? Yes.

Some of y'all need to chill on anger over a tv show pilot.

Oh yeah Reznor & Ross are brilliant yet again.
