No, I think the point is pretty clear actually. It's meant to draw attention to real-life life people, as opposed to fiction. That being said, normies and most comic fans don't get the point of Manhattan anyway.
>It's meant to draw attention to real-life life people, as opposed to fiction
That would make more sense if they had kids reading comics about superhero doctors, not actual superhero's existing and bowing to doctors when many of them could just end the corona virus with magic or science.
While blowing up every infected people is a way to do it, I do not advise it.
As far as Canon go, Dr Manhattan is not know for his precision when dealing with problem. He tend to be rather blunt.
This reminds me of those drawings of Goku and Sonic converting to Islam. Pure autism
It's another OP is autistic episode
>capeshit
>not normie-central
yeah okay.
The point is that Manhattan doesn't give a shit though
Film-wise, yea, it is. Comic-wise? Lol, no.
I am bowing because I saw in the future that I was bowing. All is already set, there is no point fighting.
capeshit roleplay and reference is zoomer's version of "muh library" boomer comics. they shat on that for months but in a week they became exactly the same with their shitty facebook comics.
>normies silly, neckbeards intelligent
OK.
That's kind of one of the points of Watchmen though, isn't it? The future isn't set? Dr. Manhattan just became complacent watching the future play-out instead of trying to change it.
He could social distance them all to Mars!
>cant stop every of the tens of thousands of nukes
>can stop millions of virus strains
Wut?
No? Everything played out exactly as Manhattan foresaw except for when Ozymandias killed him which he could not see because he obstructed his future vision with takyons
No Johns, once again you missed the whole point.
>oh, yes, breathing. I keep forgetting about it. Well, it's just has been 2 hours...
Yea, the takyons blocked his vision of the future, which allowed all of Ozymandias' plans to be undone by Rorschach. Manhattan saw the future and saw the takyons and so became passive to the world around him thinking it would end in nuclear war anyway. His loss of interest in the world was due to his belief that he couldn't change whatever the future held. It's pretty basic common sense. I mean, either that or Alan Moore was just oblivious to this logic.
I mean if he can materialize a magical sphere that supplies oxygen and proper pressurization on the surface of Mars for a person to live without a suit, he could certainly end corona virus.
It's never stated that Manhattan thought he couldn't change it.
However it is stated several times that he couldn't be arsed.
This still doesn't prove your point that one of the themes of the book is that destiny can be changed
Providing chemical in vast quantity and pressure is all simple structures enough. systematically eliminating microscopic entities without arming any of the host is a whole different story.
the guy used to blown up criminal and soldiers who shot at him, instead of sending them to jail or prison camp, withhout their weapons.
He clearly has issue when dealing with large amount of target at the same time.
He doesn't have to destroy all of the microscopic entities. He could easily just create a cure.
>This still doesn't prove your point that one of the themes of the book is that destiny can be changed
It's not one of the themes that destiny can be changed, it was pretty obvious though that Doctor Manhattan believed anything he accomplished wouldn't be worth-while in the end if the out-come was the same which is why he grew disinterested, in fact it's highlighted by the Comedian when he points out that Manhattan knew what he was going to do and chose not to act. His choice lead to the death of that woman.
Ok, so it isn't one of the points of Watchmen that the future can be changed. Glad we agree
He is a physicist, not a biologist.
>Ok, so it isn't one of the points of Watchmen that the future can be changed
I said it wasn't one of the central themes. The central theme is about humanity's endless conflict and the futility of trying to change that.
The future can absolutely be changed in regards to Watchmen's universe though. You'd have be a monkey-brained retard not to see that. Just like people have sex in the comic.
You said it was one of the points of the series. It is not.
Normie idea of "super hero" is "someone popular does something 'good'" And super heros are just popular brands to them.
Or Goku rejecting IsraelĀ“s legitimy as a State
That's my bad. When I said it was a "point" I meant it was a motif. It's writer jargon.
Theme's are the overall reasons for the story existing in the first place. A motif is something that is made to be noticed, by not the central idea the story revolves around. A story can have many different motifs or "points" but it only has usually a one or two central themes.
>by not the central idea the story revolves around.
