Did they say when the millennium clock was built? I’m wondering if that is Veidt’s prison or at least if Trieu is his captor. The walls of the prison are portals that open onto Europa. Trieu implied she knew what Veidt currently looked like with the statue. Presumably the richest person in the world could have advanced portal tech if a terrorist org has it. Also the cloning tech Veidt has is something Trieu possesses as she made that family a baby. Raccooon fucked around with this message at 06:53 on Nov 20, 2019 |

beanieson posted:All the employees in the store front area of that dog cloning place were standing next to an exact double, which implies they’re either hiring exclusively identical twins, OR cloning their customer service representatives and using Veidt’s fast grow microwave to get them to maturity. Which would also imply a larger dispose-all for the full grown clones who didn’t look quite right. I was assuming it was clones because cloning seemed so widespread and acceptable; then again sugar seems to be banned. What happens if they are making clones of their reps? Do they then provide them with a house and an additional stipend or do they just incinerate them at the end of each day? If they are only hiring twins would they encounter labour law violations?

They are probably going to do a pirate broadcast. This is an interesting theory. Thinking back it's definetly a broadcast center. I didn't even make that connection, though I noticed all the lighting equipment but completey spaced on that being a Master Control Room that Mirror Guy watches the video in.

Wild theory: each time we see a Veidt anniversary, it's not just one year later, it's a new Veidt clone celebrating his first birthday. Whenever he tries to escape, the warden kills him and easy-bakes a new V-clone. His prison could be testing to see if there's a pacified version of him that can be safely reintroduced into modern society. The original is probably still out there as a control.

Nice theory, but at certain points he seems to express an exhaustion that implies he's been there longer than a year, him smashing the birthday cake or when he's shown imprinting the clones. That, and the continuation of him saying he's writing a play in the first episode and having it performed in the second. lurker2006 fucked around with this message at 08:22 on Nov 20, 2019 |

think keene knew about the assassination attempt ahead of time? what was the plan if blake hadn't done what she did? e:i guess they were just going to kidnap him. so without angela (but with blake) the 7k might've actually killed him.

The third one was the Kavalry church. Those bothered me as well; I don’t need help remembering a crucial plot point from 20 minutes ago. The cactus being constantly in view on Wade’s desk while he and Angela are talking about the Nostalgia felt similarly heavy-handed.

That's a great book. They take the Charlton characters that inspired Watchmen and make them more like their Watchmen counterparts. It's the only time I've ever felt anything more than disdain for Captain Atom.

Rinkles posted:think keene knew about the assassination attempt ahead of time? what was the plan if blake hadn't done what she did? I don't think he did know about it, probably another reason why he speaks so poorly of the locals and seemed genuinely relieved to have been saved. I am on the side of him concealing his identity though, so depends on where you land on that. It's seems overly complicated to try and stage that and rely on the guy being shot; unless he was meant to break free somehow and return a hero.

Just found out that theres a documentary from 2012 called Swandown that has a sequence where Alan Moore and Stewart Lee ride a pedalo in the shape of a swan down a canal in England. I know thats only mildly relevant to the thread but I had to share this somewhere.

In his big reveal, Veidt said that there would still have to be "occassional minor dimensional incursions" or something to continue to sell the hoax. Is that entirely the squidfall? I guess he's got a squidfall machine set on automatic?

I think it's implied in a couple of ways that Veidt owns EDS and also is involved with the self help stuff. So, entirely predatory.

So Will is Hooded Justice and applied makeup to his eyes to appear white under his mask, reflecting how his granddaughter applied her own make-up, right? It does seem like a cheat repurposing the Hooded Justice to be an inverse KKK outfit with a noose when that's kind of what New Frontier John Henry is.
