I’m not convinced he’s trying to get himself out.
Why would he have a rope around the suit to pull it back in?

He’s definitely testing the limits of something.


Well that answers part of my question about the rope.

So this is a new arms race? But for a Dr. Manhanttan like figure?

Veidt was moved off the board cause exposing his scheme with the squid would send people against the government. Keene could have just released the tape if that was his goal.

Will or at least his body is being tested to make the change by Trieu(pills for his memory, the fact he's 105)
The 7K are trying to test teleportation and radiation exposure(the batteries thinink Manhattan's exposure over the years helped him survive)


The only thing I don't have a guess about is if someone has the tech to make a prison on two planes, why would they have trouble with making a Dr. Manhattan.

Sunday evenings, thy name is fukkery.:wow:

Look at that. They showed the squid, and the entire world didn't implode. Take that, Snyder :ufdup:

I was right about Bob Barker being :mjpls:Abby Donovan set off my radar too.

Veidt was whyling in space all along. Half expected the camera to pull back after he landed, to show the clone bodies perfectly assembled as the smiley face logo.

Angela is about to experience a whole century of :francis:and :mjcry:

Calling the pills 'Nostalgia' is a perfect tie in to the book though.

i like to pile on Snyder (no homo) as much as the next guy (no homo), but the they just showed the squid dead and the ppl dead and the destruction, not HOW it happens. We're left to our imaginations, a big ole squid appeared out of nowhere and everybody died while a shock wave destroyed the buildings

Snyder seemed to think it was unfilmable, so he didn't even try.

In the book, which is obviously the source material - there's a whole storyline dedicated to why the squid exists, how it was created and its exact purpose.
