Drove to Oregon and rented it from the last Blockbuster. Not sure there's another way, maybe see if Hollywood Video is still in business?

Yeah I thought it was good and the people who hate it are like "the scientists who spend the whole movie yelling at us we're all going to die were smug and self-satisfied" and then you see "brought to you by Halliburton" or something.

I didn't particularly care for it and I'm pretty much the target audience. It tried to be a satire and a farce at the same time and it ended up falling pretty flat on both (I can only think of two movies that have managed to pull that off - being both very smart and very dumb at the same time is tough).

Which parts of it were trying to be farce? The image-obsessed donor-fellating lowest-common-denominator president with the important job for their insanely unqualified child? The social media dominated by petty celebrity bullshit in the face of real imminent tragedy? The billionaire technocrat willing to let the planet burn and in fact actively working towards its burning to make even more money?

One of the best things tiktok has added to The Discourse is the easy way someone can add onto another video. The ones from early this year where people were harmonising sea shanties was really good.

Linked the tweet to a friend of mine and we had a discussion basically on this topic (And how people missed the point and ran with it), where I came out in favor of the movie version, because Doctor Manhattan was actually on board with the plan and could feasibly be called in to reinforce the training, compared to Ozymandias (And jesus loving christ I only just got the association, and theoretically he named himself that unironically) being completely unable to pull a second giant psychic alien out of his rear end because he killed all the scientists he had make it.

Watchmen is also a story where the conspiracy theory chud is both a stone cold competent fighter and the one character with actual principles, rather than an overt champion of the apocalypse. It overestimated a lot of people.

Alan Moore is on record as saying that he intended that character to be like, what if Batman but a real person? and for him to be a complete mess and someone no one would ever want to aspire to

Of course, comic fans being comic fans, a lot of them did.

Yeah, great. Could you just, like, keep away from me, never come anywhere near me as long as I live?

You're supposed to feel sorry for Rorschach. He's a fundamentally broken human being who you're supposed to go "drat this guy needs years of therapy" but of course the fact that he's a violent loner resonates with way too many people these days.
