Title: New Watchmen-series
Post by: Kwon on October 21, 2019, 01:09:02 PM
I usually like black comedy but,

it was a bit too black and woke for my taste.

Let me guess. The one with the sheriff badge(Star of David) is good and the masked people in front of the slanted Crucifix are bad.

If anyone is paying even as much as one penny through HBO to watch this, they are funding the enemy and part of the problem.

The one in black is a woman who is married to a man and transitioning to become a man so that she/he will be gay.  Unknown to her, her husband is transitioning to be a female and currently has a secret gay lover but will post-op be a hetero female.

Currently her and her husband (soon to be hetero lover) are in a polyamorous love triangle with a bi-sexual woman who is hotter than Dutch love.

Peeps is crazy.

It's only coincidental that Yellow and Star symbolism is associated with righteousness. Who is responsible for this?

    "Damon Lindelof celebrated his Bar Mitzvah in Teaneck, where he attended synagogue for the Sabbath; he has stated, "I was a Jewish white kid growing up in Teaneck, but
   
at the same time, I had African and Filipino and Asian friends and to have that experience all through high school while getting an awesome education was
    wonderful
.

    Lindelof frequently collaborates with a tightly knit group of mostly Jewish film professionals which include J.J. Abrams, Adam Horowitz, Alex Kurtzman, Roberto Orci, Edward Kitsis,
    Andre Nemec, Josh Appelbaum, Jeff Pinkner, and Bryan Burk."

(Thank goodness he had "African, Filipino, and Asian" friends to offset the horrors of white children.)

Didn't care for it, almost didn't finish.

Way too woke and social justicey, really heavy handed with it. Also the writing and pacing isn't that good, very poddling, and unenjoyable.

Sadly, I don't think HBO will be great again for a while. All the shows that were and are great were developed under Albrecht and Michael Lombardo, and he left in 2016. There are only so many Lombardo ideas left to pick through.

Hulkotron watched the first episode on HBO Now (no homo), wasn't impressed.  It wasn't bad but nothing remarkable either.  Will give episode 2 a chance and probably bail unless it starts getting rave reviews from Getbig.

I’ve never read the graphic novel or watched the movie but was the story always about blacks being attacked by whites and an out of shape black woman that seems to not feel pain and is strong than men three times her size?

They really are ramping it up with the woke shit recently. I don't even waste my time with any film/show nowadays as I know it'll be full of blatant leftist political messages. Of course, it's all very calculated and contrived.  

The show was created by a member of "God's chosen people" so there shouldn't be any surprise that white Christians are portrayed as villains.

It's an interesting concept given the scrutiny cops are under these days. I'm enjoying the series but it's definitely a slow build... Some good scenes, cool soundtrack... I'll stick with it for now because the movie is one of my favorites!

Concur with the cool soundtrack.

I particularly like (at least the first minute or so) this little gem called "The Brick" by Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross.

But the graphic novel is classic. Everyone should read.

As for movie, theatrical version stunk. Too short.

Director's Cut is very good. Very few complaints.

And I certainly wouldn't call myself a Zach Snyder fan.

Ultimate Cut has Tales of the Black Freighter built in.

If you watch Director's Cut, you have to watch Tales of the Black Freighter separately. It is worth it.

Buh Bye.  Nice to know you....


(CNN)"Watchmen's" slightly cryptic ending appears to be the last we'll see of the HBO series, barring a change of heart by producer Damon Lindelof.

Lindelof, the co-creator of "Lost," told USA Today that he was passing on a second season but had "given my blessing" to HBO to proceed without him. Without slamming the door completely, the network said it was unlikely to do additional episodes without Lindelof's involvement.
Lindelof had said all along that the nine episodes spun out of the acclaimed graphic novel -- about an alternate history where superheroes exist, and Richard Nixon remained president well into the 1980s -- were a self-contained story, and that there might not be a follow-up.
