Tick tock, the teaser is here. Rorschach gang I guess makes sense, and it looks visually like something that HBO would put out, but I get some weird vibes from it. I know it's suppose to be antifa or activist like with the mantra and portrayal but I get more KKK vibes with the hoods more than anything. It'll probably be shit because of that horrid description we got earlier, even if it does look good on the surface.

No.1059351
First DC makes a sequel and now HBO. I wish Alan Moore would say something to these faggots, even if it had no power it'd still be cathartic.
So from a completely ignorant standpoint of any press releases, this looks like a collection of EBIL ANONYMOOSE people taking after Rorscharch (that they make sure to show are primarily white males and are introduced standing in a church by the American flag) versus the probably construed as GOOD NotAntiFa police men which are made of men and women of all colors.
Why couldn't they just make an original story instead of pigging backing on something that was very much a product of its time and is weakened by trying to modernize it? That's really what boils me more than anything else here.

I don't know if it's supposed to evoke antifa. From their garb, their emphasis on anonymity, and their use of firearms, I'm getting more of an "alt-right militia" kind of vibe from them.
I would be really interesting if that was intentional. That the Rorschach boys would be written so ambiguously that that what they represented depended on the viewer.Almost like a Rorschach blot.But that's way too smart for this kind of shit.

But Watchmen wasn't about masked vigilantes. It was a deconstruction of the superhero genre as it existed prior to it's publication and an exploration of how the world would be changed if superheroes were real. It's focus was specific, and it's deconstruction ceased to be relevant after it was published.

they are gonna portray rorschach view of the world as the wrong one but their are gonna fail miserable at it and is gonna backfire just like it did with starship troopers (people acutally liked the world of ST more than they hate it).

If I had any faith left in the entertainment industry, I might err on the side of assuming it's supposed to be left to interpretation, but they're very clearly going for an alt-right/anonymous thing, and the fact that they're all gathered in a church, fanatically chanting, and all of them appear to be white really evaporates any chance that this might be more subtle or nuanced than it appears.
Looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, etc etc etc. No point in pretending we haven't seen this same shitty song and dance a gorillion times already. Does it seem pozzed? Then it's probably pozzed.

How do you read anything else out of this trailer? This is about a vigilante movement of Rorschach followers who have learned and accepted the truth about the events of Watchman via his diary. Very clearly Anonymous/gilets jaunes/alt-right inspired, meeting in a church, southern accents, "goyim" being mentioned.
Attacking the agents of the new world government who is seated in power through the greatest hoax/false-flag of all time.

The thing is, Alan's an edgelord and an outsider. If you were of his generation, and you were that way, you probably went through a Communist or Anarchist phase. It's just what people did. It was like being a goth in the 90's. You almost can't really hold it against them.
