Dr. Manhatten’s Ring Device

I believe the ring device just affected Manhatten’s memory. In other words, he had his power all along, he was just unaware of it. In a time of self-defense, he would act to defend himself by instinct and thus use his powers. It wasn’t clear to me from the podcast...

Paradise Lost

I don’t have a lot of time, so I’ll keep it short. Adrian Veidt is Lucifer. Not that he’s evil, but he represents that tragic figure. Like King B stated, he’s not a god. Instead, he is a godlike figure but not quite. Paradise doesn’t do it for him and...

Statue Analogy

Chicken And Waffles

It’s chicken and waffles. That is a big southern thing. He is bringing in the chicken and egg allegory with chicken and waffles. Additionally, I can’t remember the exact scene (possibly the Europa creation) but as the clouds converge they display the outline of the United States implying the the...

Why Manhattan Falls In Love

Great podcast. Just one point I think you guys missed. The moment that Dr. Manhattan “falls in love” with Angela, parallels the moment he first gets stuck in the chamber when his girlfriend cant watch because she cant do anything about it. The reason he falls in love with Angela...
