Watchmen

The movie comes out on DVD tomorrow and I can't wait to pick it up. I went and saw the movie in Theaters and loved it. I also read the graphic novel beforehand. I know the movie isn't exactly what some here would call a good movie, but I loved that way it gave an insight to society responding to vigilantism heroes.

What do you guys think. :chin
 
I'm a Christian, as you know it, but I'm also a comic book fan...and I love the watchmen. It shows a surreal approach to real life vigilantism which was cool. I have it on dvd, director's cut addition! Also if you like that you'll love KA; kick...you know the rest, written by Mark Miller and drawn by Frank Romero jr. Now that's a more realistic approach to real life superheroes. The main character HAS NO POWERS, has nothing but a costume and a pile of comic books. He inspires some people to start doing their own superheroing, and gets into deep trouble when he messes with teh MOB...lol check it out.
 
It's a fantastic film, and a fantastic comic book.

Not for the faint of heart. But then, most incisive art isn't.
 
I just wish V for Vendetta and The League of Extraodinary Gentlemen translated the same way.

I'm a nerd, and accept the title. I'm thinking about raiding my local shop again and seeing if they still have the Dr. Manhattan FIgure.

Personally I think it would be intersting to see both Jon/Manhattan and Jon/Martian Man Hunter meet. That would make reality turn on its head. :yes

I like the Watchmen when I saw it in theatres. Then when I read some of the comics, the art was beautiful.
I'm a nerd too :salute . And the same here, not many people enjoy superhero movies. V for Vendetta should be a classic, I enjoyed that :) Also the League was epic. I think Watchmen has some echoes of that, with the team unity and motley collaboration of powers that the characters have~
 
njbeliever what do you do for entertainment?

nothing? shoot if you watch any martial arts or sports that have any connection fighting you will find the connection to some type of spiritualism.

What is your point? I am not talking about "spiritualism." I am talking about SATANISM. Alan Moore is a satanist and a blatant Aleister Crowley follower. If you have information to the contrary, please offer it. I think the video alone (did you watch it?) makes it extremely clear.

my point is while they are forms of entertainment that are demonic, and should be avoided. no, you seem to hit up certain no ones while failing to attack star wars,star trek, outer limits and sci-fi itself.

all secular music glorifies sin. should christians not listen to that as well? i dont, but christ did say i come to give life to those that belief on him more abdundantly. legalism doesnt fit that, i choose not to watch tv and or secular music as it can be a hindrince, but some are able and not be affected.

btw isnt there majic in these philosohies, taosim, zen(some forms),shintoism, and buddhism, martial arts get alot of things from that stuff.


the tai chi thing(yin yang symbol) is the concept of the creation to the taoist and tai chi the martial art references that alot. The very s.korean flag is that thing

So basically, your excuse is "everyone else is doing it"? Come on, behave. You're just ducking the truth about Moore. He's not secular. He's SATANIC. The V for Vendetta comic is a tribute to Aleister Crowley is you ever peruse it. Bringing up Star Wars (new age heresy), Matrix (Gnostic Gospel) or other movies does not change anything about Watchmen.

I haven't heard ALL secular music so I cannot agree that it glorifies sin in its entirety. but I know most of it I've heard does and YES, we should throw it out.
 
agian, what should we watch then, since, all that is around us is evil, that isnt in the bible.

all music that we should listen be only praise music then. the same with the movies then.
oops sensitive ears that sinner that live near me cusses alot
best avoid him

watch football support beer, same with mma, boxing and well any sport

please

one , i dont watch many movies to begin with. my choice, not a commandment
two i dont listen to secular music when i'm by myself.

i was a jw, are you a jw, you preach what they preach. funny few of them even are that legalistic in reality. i know few and they have tv's and watch them


one must be called into by maturity to not listen to secular music and or movies. it cant be commanded


you dont know me at all. i dont celebrate halloween, havent since i was saved.


post something on these christain holydays.
 
let me see. celebrate christmas. thou pagan
celebrate a birthday and wish(a magic practice) a good one, pagan

celebrate the easter tradition of egg coloring, thou pagan, one shouldnt worship ashstarte

halloween, thou pagan, dont mix pagan winter festivals and demonic doctrine with the bible

valentines day, thou pagan, worshiper of eros and cupid and aphrodite.

thanksgiving, thou pagan, the lord commands us not to worship the nation of america

render the salute in the military, idolatry, rank on the collar isnt to be worshipped

pledge the alliance to the nation, idolatry.

believe in animal rights, you may be supporting those that embrace pantheism

i wonder how much you embrace these.
 
i'm glad that i was freed from that. never argue pagan doctrines with a jw or a former one. i know all the origins of them all.

i choose not celebrate certain holidays and celebrate the others. but again my choice

in all actually the only holiday we should celebrate is the breaking of bread and the wine at communion.

or maybe the jewish feasts

btw ever really celebrate channukah. the true way. i havent
 
This is kinda late, but I disliked that movie. There was an unnecessary amount of gore, and I found the whole movie to be rather boring. The ideas it presented were interesting, but I'd rather read about them in a novel.

You're really trying to make straw man points with the wrong person. When I described Star Wars and the Matrix I was talking about 2 of my favorite movie series of all time. And they are indeed pushing the new age and gsnoticism. I owned multiple matrix master sets. And they're all in the garbage.

I never said we're called not to listen to secular music. You are bringing up everything under the sun except WATCHMEN. Alan Moore is a SATANIST. That was and remains my point. Trying to justify you're being a fan of him because of football and MMA makes no sense. The "everybody's doing it" argument is just not compelling.

I treat secular entertainment on a case by case basis. I would NEVER say ALL music is bad. I havent heard it all. Same for movies and comics. But I happen to know about Alan Moore and it's clear his work is of Satan. Still waiting for you to address that.
 
i'm addressing your whole anti this movie or that one.

not just this one.

that is why i say that. if we are to say no to these, then why not those paganistic influences in the chruch as well. seems to be consistent .

if it aint of God, as in biblical. then its the doctrine of demons.

do you agree with this?

hint; i mirroring how you come across.

if man aint worsiping the Lord, then what is he worshipping, himself or the devil, and or object.
