Thank you for this request! This movie took a long time to render and upload, but here we are! This video is around 4 hours long! Please enjoy! xoxo

Welcome to our FULL UNCUT Reactions tier!

We have two tiers: 1 for Movies and 1 for Everything (shows, movies and more)!

The top of our Patreon Page provides:

  • A link tab that you can click to access our main link posts to watch movies and/or shows.
  • Our Entire Library tier ($10 tier) is pinned at the top of our Patreon page.
  • A search bar where you can type in the video you want to view.

If you need any assistance with this, please private message us so we can help you. It means a lot to us that you care about what we do and enjoy our content!

There are 2 ways to watch videos- 

  • YouTube: Stream Online directly

Google Drive has rules that must be followed. It is a file sharing service only, so please don't watch videos directly on our account.

Been waiting patiently almost two years for this one to win the poll. Thank you so much for reacting to this!

The TV show is much better.

Watchmen. There's a lot to say about Watchmen. I could talk for hours XD. I'll try to keep it short though, but nope. Not really lol. Nice catch with the Black Freighter storyline and it's parallel to Rorschach, I was initially worried because I felt it works much better in the comic then it does in the film, but I'm glad you liked it. I'd add Veidt to that, a man turned insane by his attempt to prevent a horror, driven by his morality to murder innocents and become a horror himself. In the comic, when Veidt celebrates his victory, the way he is framed in that part not only suggests a *clock*, like the doomsday clock. But also a sense of isolation from the others. Hmmm. The sex scene was much more drawn out than the comic lol. The writer of the comic, Alan Moore, definitely used it to contrast with the initial failure sex scene. These heroes have such a complex that suiting up and doing hero things gets them in the mood. Rorschach (who was softened a bit for mass appeal, compared to his hobo fascistic ways in the comic) also explores Alan Moore's other idea with Superheroes, that they are inherently Fascist. The original Minutemen have little hints about this concept in the comic where we hear that Metropolis and Hooded Justice are Nazi sympathisers. Alan Moore has said before in an interview that the first costumed people, masking up to fight what they believed to be crime, was the Ku Klux Klan. You can really see that with Rorschach and his reactionary beliefs that makes paleoconservatives seem like hippies. And whaddya know? A sex complex with him too! As his mother was a prostitute and it gave him a massive aversion and hatred of women and sex in general. And at the end of every chapter of the comic, there's around 4 pages of text from something in-universe. Like a newspaper interview with Veidt, Hollis' autobiography, Rorschach's psych profile and the newspaper he reads (which makes the KKK comparison there too). These are actually very important to the world and story and themes, so some of the dialogue in the movie is straight from those sections. It was considered unfilmable for a reason lol. On a side not, Alan Moore did the same thing in another comic of his, Neonomicon. Except this time he didn't have any editors to stop him, straight up 20 pages of one chapter is just a journal written in cursive. Still pretty good though.

Now, about the movie and some things I gotta say about it. The comic was, for a very long time, considered unfilmable. Many scripts, many directors (including Terry Gilliam of Monty Python fame) tried. As much as I enjoy this movie, I do feel that it does prove that it is indeed unfilmable. The comic utilises its medium so well that it cannot be translated into a film without losing a chunk of its soul in the process. The changes they made are interesting. One I've always been critical of is how stylish they made the fights. In the comic they're very grounded. I get what Snyder was going for though, they're cinematic comic book fights but with realistic violence. But I think it makes them look cool instead, which isn't what the comic was going for. But that's my opnion. Mileage may vary. And the big one somebody already mentioned. The ending. Wooooo lots of arguments on the interent lol! In the comic the plan is much more elaborate, throughout the story we hear of artists and architects and scientists going missing. We find out Veidt has been crafting a gigantic alien monstrosity with the brain of a psychic and visage so horrible it'll give people nightmares and melt their brains with psychic energy and plopped in New York, and only in New York, with people in different countries being affected by the psychic blast. Now here they changed it to Doc zapping people all over the globe. Supporters of the Doc Manhattan version say it's more grounded and not silly like the comic. But, as the self-appointed ambassador for the Slimy Squid ending, I say that's the point. It is an outrageously ridiculous comic book climax, but not only does it work, we see the actual consequences of it. It adds a bit of satire to it too. As the Cold War was still on when the comic was published and was risking turning hot. Something as ridiculous as a psychic alien squid is what creates peace between USA and Russia? I'll say it aged better as time has gone on lol. In comic books, and their movies, we don't really see the consequences of superhero adventurism. And here too! Everybody is vaporised. In the comic, we see the remains of the people Veidt slaughtered. Piles of bodies, very gruesome but necessary. I cannot help but agree with Dr Manhattan, I understand and would remain silent too, but the comic really hammers home the sheer scale of life Veidt snuffed out on his whim. You get it, but you hate him all the same. The movie cut out more subplots from the comic. It only kept the two Bernies. In the comic we follow more people. The two detectives on Rorschachs case, the psychologist and his wife, as their marriage falls apart as his study of Rorschach turns him into a depressed nihilist. And not in the film at all is an estranged lesbian couple. We see bits and pieces of their lives on that corner in New York, never sure the point, until at the climax. It's a hauntingly beautiful part that follows through with the life is beautiful and a miracle message. All these people, through chance, stumble upon each other and try to help one another, including the Psychologist who basically says "If there is no God, no meaning to the world, like Rorschach says, then we should help each other, and create a meaning". And then they all die. In each others arms. It may sound weird to cry over small side characters, but that's what I did haha. Seeing their remains in the final chapter, they're all on each other in a deathly embrace. As Doctor Manhattan said in the comic, that they sadly cut in the movie, *every* life is a miracle. We're just surrounded by miracles that we forget how magical life, and love, is. They did a damn good job though, even if I question some creative decisions. I have no idea why they changed Veidt "I did it 35 minutes ago" to "I triggered it 35 minutes ago" IMO the "I did it" hits harder. There's a Watchmen TV show that came out in 2019. It was pretty good, though again, some creative decisions I question in the final episode. Interestingly the TV show doesn't even try to adapt the comic. Instead it's a sequel to the comic and continues it's own spin on the themes of the comic. And it has the Slimy Squid. Hell yeah.

The comic animated story was so random, I guess it was some allegory to fighting monsters can lead to becoming one or something.

Dr Manhattan one would think could have gone back in time and prevented it all happening, but it he intimated the universe works on single time line theory which means everything is preordained and unchangeable. Single timeline theory has pretty much been abandoned in time travel theory as it makes time travel into the past impossible due to paradoxes. Current thinking is that time travel to the past leads to a new time line from the point of arrival in the past AKA branched time line theory. This would mean the old timeline still exists as an alternate reality but the new timeline would be without the Ozymandias false flag attacks.

It's funny when I first saw this I wasn't familiar at all with The Watchmen. Literally never heard of it. Of course I'm long past caught of with it's history now. I thought "Oh this is a really neat visual style that the filmmaker has used to show off this group of superheroes I don't know, then I started realizing he uses that SAME style in 90% of his films and it became less impressive. REALLY fits Watchmen though to have given it's first film adaptation an original look. Not sure if I'll be able to watch this reaction since I don't have the ULTIMATE CUT, just the Director's Cut. 😂

The only thing the Ultimate cut adds to the director's cut is a few animated sequences and scenes with a kid and the news vendor to bookend them. you could watch as normal and pause your version while they watch those parts and then unpause after they finish.

If it helps, remember that Watchmen was originally a comic. So Manhattan is somebody who sees everything on a page. He's still a character who's role has been written, but like us he can see all the panels in any order he chooses.
