MovieJuice: The Watchmen

MovieJuice takes a look at The Watchmen

"There's one hero whose primary power is the ability to hold a match in front of a spray can and shoot flame. Another has the super power to give crooks the finger. Most of these costumed heroes have the same kinds of super powers possessed by the costumed revelers on Halloween in the Castro. I must say my favorite Watchman was The Comedian, who evidently even lacked the super power of being funny."

I noted in my comments on the film that Watchmen must have been kind of an awkward team in the old days. Dr Manhattan has approximately the same powers as God, while the others have minimally useful talents like the ability to calculate the correct tip on any tab, or the ability to accessorize. When they were teaming up, exactly how did that work? "OK, Doc, you take out the 347 guys on the right. The rest of you - let's celebrate Doc's victory and talk about why he always has his dick out!"
