        This. The whole story was about taking the Silver Age comicbook heroes and their whacky stories and putting them in the real world. It made more sense having the 60's level plan Ozy came up with in having humanity fear a false alien invasion by exploding a psychic monster over new york city than having two ideological enemies unite over one of their own gone rogue. It also made no sense that Dr. Manhattan would even attack Earth. Why would a person who was becoming more detached from humanity choose to attack and destroy it? It makes even less sense when this happens AFTER he leaves Earth because he had grown tired of it. It almost like Snyder isn't good at making movies or something and never understands the source material.

                That's not sufficient to establish a giant alien squid that teleports into new york and emits a lethal psychic blast. Manhattan is already a primary character in the story and will already command a significant amount of the runtime. It's trivial to substitute him in to produce a tighter script. Again, the movie is already far, far too long. There is zero benefit to dragging it on more for something that only matters to literal autistics.

                A rogue US nuclear sub is not an existential threat. The nature of an existential threat is that there is no option to not cooperate because the alternative is Armageddon. Unless you're arguing that Manhattan is not actually an existential threat as presented, then his origins or past allegiance matters not one iota. The whole point is that the Americans and Soviets have no choice.

                Manhattan becomes an external threat by attacking everybody. He didn't destroy new york on orders from America. This is trivial. I don't know what you're having trouble with.

                And again, the US would be held responsible for not controlling their asset.

                They can't be held responsible because the point is that an existential threat demands they all cooperate. Again, that's the point. If you agree an alien squid means everybody has to set aside their differences because the only way to survive at all is to stop the fighting, then the exact logic applies to Manhattan. Your argument is that the soviets would ignore this and choose to be petty instead of choose to live. The exact same criticism can be leveled against the squid. Either everybody chooses to stop fighting or they don't.

                >A rogue US nuclear sub is not an existential threat
                Neither is rogue Dr. Manhattan, at first. Maybe he'll just nuke the rest of the USA and get a medal from the USSR, probably two for including California, and then he frick off to other galaxy. The Russians starting the world peace thing in the movie instead of asserting the situation its plainly moronic.

                >Neither is rogue Dr. Manhattan
                Yes, he is. He destroys multiple major cities in an instant. And he is still out there. Whereas the squid destroys one major city and then dies. If the latter is enough to foster a truce, there's no reason the former couldn't as well.

It's still in your best interest to stop fighting me and side against him. That's the crux of the entire plan.

                You keep repeating this like it means anything. Manhattan lost his shit on live television, vanished, and the next appears by attacking major cities all around the world, including the US. That's not a US asset. Continuing to insist that this is so just demonstrates how little thinking you're capable of actually employing. You can't handle something not being an exact match of your picture book and you've shut down your brain in response.

                >it's an appeal to raw survival instinct.
                Thats exactly what the squid is about monkey brain! The movie ending with Dr Manhattan being blamed will just turn the worldwide population against the US since Manhattan was born in the US, turned into a nuclear supergod by the US and fought by the US side in all their wars. Its too one sided. Frankly i can't figure out how you are literally having an argument against yourself since all your post is rather correct if (you) were talking about the squid.

                It's literally the exact same thing, dipshit. The soviets and the world at large do not have the luxury to be pissed at the US over Manhattan because the whole point is that anything less than a unified front is choosing death. What are you possibly having trouble with?

                You could argue that the "unification" wouldn't be fair and equal if the threat was created by the USA in the first place. The rest of the world would probably sanction the states, even if they worked together.

                However, my biggest problem with the Dr. Manhattan being the threat thing is this; people know he's a super god. At least with an alien threat the mankind might think they stand a chance if they unite and prepare against the threat together, but Dr. Manhattan they can't take on because he's too fricking strong and they know it.

                Also, I can see Dr. Manhattan not telling anyone about the fake alien cospiracy, but would he take the blame for murdering millions and then just frick off? Even though he's detached, I dunno.

                Anyway, it is made very clear in the comic (and the film's ending also hints at this) that the plan ultimately doesn't work. People will sooner or later turn against each other again and Dr. Manhattan knew it. That's why I find it hard to believe that he would take the blame personally, knowing that it's not going to work anyway.

                Your other points are pure supposition. They aren't supported by anything in the film. You just arbitrarily declare that you don't think people would join together against Manhattan because they would think he was unstoppable. Why would they think that? If that were the case, why hadn't the Soviets already surrendered? You claim Manhattan wouldn't like being cast as the villain and so he would reveal the deception, but again this is based on nothing. Manhattan is pragmatic if he's anything, which is why he elects not to spoil the plan in both versions. For some reason you've decided that he's vain enough that his alleged culpability would change the calculus. There's nothing about the character presented in the film that would suggest this. The opposite, in fact.

                It literally doesn't matter if Manhattan was born directly out of nixon's ass. The point of an existential threat is that it demands everyone stand together or die. If your position is that the soviets are petty enough that they'd choose death over cooperation then that criticism applies equally to an alien squid.

                That's not the argument at all. The argument is that Manhattan works perfectly fine as the threat and is a workable edit for a movie that's already way too fricking long. It has nothing to do with the aesthetics of the squid.

You have not demonstrated that the latter is meaningfully unique such that it would result in everyone setting aside their differences while the former would not. You place more weight on the origin of the monster than on the fact that the monster has demonstrated it's ability and willingness to kill everybody.

And he actually has a presence in the story, instead of a cloned psychic kid who has his backstory ham fisted into the story with no other connection and a big ridiculous alien bomb prop is fricking gay.

          But it makes no sense that Manhattan would attack Earth seeing how the story has people talk about how detached he's becoming with Earth and humanity. Why would someone who gives no fricks anymore about helping Earth decided to attack it especially after they had left because they had grown tired of Earth's problems? You also failed to understand the story is a 60's silver age type of story. The clone boy's story doesn't matter, it's what Ozy has planned is what matters which is finding a way to trick humanity into thinking an alien invasion is coming. He had to do all this crazy stuff to get it to work which is something out of the Silver Age or anything from the 60's in general.

              How does becoming detached mean you're gonna go and start killing? By your logic, Buddha was a raging psychopath mowing down everyone in hsi path because he was so detached from everything. His whole issue was not getting involved when he has the power to help. The Comedian brings this up when he calls him out for not stopping him from shooting dead that pregnant Vietnam woman in a fit of drunken rage. He says how he could turned his gun into anything but didn't, he just stood there and did nothing to stop him because he didn't care and talks about how that's the real fricked up thing all of this: Having a god on your side who does nothing to stop the violence. So why would this guy who does nothing to stop crime suddenly want to start a genocide of humanity?

              So old school Republican Mitt Romney has the same opinions as MAGA moron Marjorie Taylor Greene? They're both in the GOP, so that means they think exactly the same, right? That's the issue with your two party system: you mash ideologies that don't work together.

                He wouldn't, which is why he didn't. I'm not sure why you think the world at large would know this. All they know is that he's a superman who slaughtered the vietcong and just sperged the frick out on national television when he was accused of irradiating everyone he ever spent time with.

              Except they would have to know New York was nuked as well, with Moscow gone that complicates the process immensely. They'd be getting conflicting reports and would very likely assume it was deliberate attempts to slow down their response. Nuclear wars have almost been started over less. Cuba crisis for example almost went hot because the some submarine thought they were being shot at, only reason they didn't launch their nukes was because one commander didn't agree and it needed a unanimous decision of three.

        if you're living in a world with a giant walking blue god then if a massive, weird alien appeared out of fricking nowhere i would jump to the conclusion that the two were related in some way.

        It's not projection, the comic spends a significant chunk of time showcasing his shitty childhood and how the Rorschach character is basically him lashing out at the world for wronging him. He hates prostitutes because his mom was one for example.

    Are you moronic? The point isn't even the moral reasoning. Rorsarch's belief and entire point was that Adrian had murdered a bunch of innocent people for nothing because his ruse was not going to work due to it being based on deception and completely false/ engineered pretenses. At best he had maybe bought some time at the expense of countless lives, because sooner or later, and most likely sooner, his ruse was going to be sniffed out by either the Soviets or the Americans or both or someone else regardless, and at best that would set them back to Square One, and at worst it would accelerate everything towards Doomsday.

      Children think like this, which was the point of their exchange. The whole world is based on lies and Rorschach is shown repeatedly to be a child playing dress up. He wears lifts and drowns himself in aftershave to seem more manly but he can barely feed himself properly or take of himself like an adult. They then go further into the way he rationalizes how to fix the world.

      It's funny how in currentyear there are still anons outting themselves as morons over this. Rorsch is meant to be a filter for readers. Children like his approach to justice and how he sees the world while adults see it as juvenile. Most anons ITT have been hard filtered.

Making Dr Manhattan nuke the world would just make the whole world angry at the US.

      Another thing that mildly irritated me about the film version is how Veidt gives off supervillain vibes way too early. Like in that scene where the Comedian torches his map during the meeting. Comic Veidt examined the ashes with a thoughtful rather than angry expression, because it was occurring to him that Blake might have a point. Movie Veidt just stares daggers at the guy like he's swearing vengeance.

      Still, all adaptations are flawed in this way to some extend and honestly, given that Warner's was involved it could have been much, much worse. Snyder got like 60-70% of it right.

    RorsCHAD was the most based & redpilled character I've ever seen in any capeshit or "gRaPhic NoVel" (as they love to call comic books nowadays).

    His morality is so strong, he believes mankind can shape its own destiny should it know the truth about Ozymandias' cringe & bluepilled take. RorsCHAD is all about weeding out the shitty dogma of an alleged "lesser evil" in this case lies.

    Think about it this way: Ozzy is teh pharmaceutical companies who willingly lied to people about the vaxx, NiteOwl is the complacent moron who is redpilled but unwilling to help people, RorsCHAD is the based /misc/ schizo who twitterposts about his findings and ties between Ukrainian biolabs, Wuhan, Bill Gates, etc. in an attempt to redpill as many normies as possible.

    Now who the hell would think out of all three RorsCHAD is the bad guy here?

    Let's not kid ourselves, if it is the nature of mankind to destroy itself it's not up to homosexualy Ozzy or all powerful cuck god Manhattan to decide that humans must not destroy themselves, but up to the morality of man and God (the real one) alone.

    Rorschach is based because he makes anti-moralists seethe so hard.
    His very design mocks them.
    Usually if you’re an anti-moralist you are spiritually broken in some form or another.
    So when you look into his mask (a Rorschach Test) as anti-moralist you can’t see anything.
    It only reflects the broken shell of your soul, of a person with no conviction or purpose.

    It's such to be a hint of his character device/inevitable tragedy
    Roscharch is deeply traumatized individual with beliefs shaped by shitty childhood, which involved a loose white for a mother that he hated and and absentee father that he idolized, despite knowing next to nothing about him. What he did know, or at least thought he did, was that his father supported Truman and Walter therefore supported him and the atom bombings in Japan too. This mostly sets up Kovacs worldview, black and white are completely distinct with no in-between, his father was a good man, his father supported Truman, therefore Truman was a good man and what he did was good
    When the story starts, Roscharch is more deep in his ways and, let's call it psychosis. He doesn't shower, is a criminal, spends almost all day in his vigilante identity. This is contrasted to how he was before, shown in a flashback with Nite Owl where's he's more calm and reasonable. The story seems to hint that the more Roscharch is left alone, the deeper his issues plague him, which you can see by how his investigation with Dan Dreiber seem to mellow him out.
    And that's how it leads to the first chink in the armor of his philosophy, when he spares his landlady, that had lied to the police about him, something he'd no doubt see as evil. The presence of her children make him reconsider his philosophy for maybe the first time.
    The refusal to go with Veidt's plan is a self-sacrifice brought about the realization that he can't live by his philosophy
    Much like dropping the bombs, the plan would mean the saving of countless lives at a hefty price of blood however
    But the deception would mean it's a spit in the face of truth and honesty
    Roscharch can't solve this conundrum, so he decides to die

      >The refusal to go with Veidt's plan is a self-sacrifice brought about the realization that he can't live by his philosophy

      I saw it more as a refusal to compromise his philosophy. The sort of gray morality required to perpetuate Veidt's lies just wasn't in him. The believed in good vs. evil, right vs. wrong, lies vs truth and the whole idea of covering up the most heinous crime in history because it served the greater good was a level of cognitive dissonance he wasn't prepared to face.

      He preferred to die while still being on the side of "good" in his perspective because that righteousness and self-assurance were what his entire ego were built on. To abandon his black and white moral code would be a kind of ego death, and he chose martyrdom instead.

        I thought that too and it seems like a more obvious read, but it wouldn't explain his suicidal tendencies or why he'd contradict himself when compared to his earlier view of the greater good. He could've just said nothing and lived, his diary was already mailed.
        Granted, he still says "no comprise" and it could be me reading more into it and being wrong

      All correct except you forgot one thing. Forcing Manhattan to kill him is both a frick you to manhattan for having the power to play god and doing nothing with it. And also one last ditch attempt to see if there is any humanity left in manhattan at all, because if there was then he would feel remorse or even doubt about killing Rorschach, his friend and fellow hero.

      There is no remorse in Manhattan when he does it and the look on his face tells you that he's made his choice. He doesn't even kill Rorschach out of revenge or even pity or even because he asks him to. He kills him because he's a minor inconvenience. This completes manhattan's story arc from former human being to whatever the hell he is now.

    It's Deontology versus Utilitarianism. Roscharch has a duty towards truth and justice and the natural order of things and he refuses to compromise and submit to the utilitarianism agenda of 'the ends justify the means'.

    Something thats extremely important is the context in which the story was written. This is a story written by a actual satanist commie 1970s liberal homosexual. He made roscharch absolutely insane and deranged on purpose and was very upset when he found out some people supported roscharch's actions and philosophy. Roscharch is suppose to be an unlikable lunatic who is 'obviously' wrong from the point of view of some 1980s edgelord who absolutely hated the happy and positive bullshit of traditional boomer comics.

    It's supposed to be pretty obvious because of his face but homeboy literally sees things in black and white. If you do something bad, you deserve to get fricked up.

    Ozymandias saved the world, but killed millions of people. Rorscach realized that he couldn't really live in a world where something so horrible was also a solution. That's why he was fine to let Manhattan zap him.

    I think people often miss something more deep in this scene. Rorschach starts the entire story with a speech about how he would let the entire world die due to its own degenerate corruption. He is presented as a sociopath throughout. In the end, it is the "sociopath" that is the only one who cannot emotionally accept a genocide. We know that he cares deep down about people because the level of his derangement was caused by the cruel torture and murder of a little girl by a villain.

    Meanwhile, it is all the normal and somewhat more well-adjusted "heroes" that just callously accept a genocide as part of the "greater good." Who is really acting sociopathic here?

      That's why he takes off his mask I think. He no longer could emotionally deal or accept the idea of the superhero treating other human beings' lives as mere variables in some abstract moral exercise like utilitarianism versus deontology which so many people reduce Watchmen's climax to. He became a superhero out of his commitment to the prevention of the suffering of innocent lives, and when he's faced with what really is the epitome of superheroic action in Ozymandias' 'saving' the world, he rejects the identity wholesale and dies as Walter Kovacs, "one more body amongst foundations" rather than the aloof masked vigilante who denies saving the degenerate populace.
