I don't think any of this is spoilerish so I'm not doing a cut.
So I was on the Watchmen messageboard on IMDB and someone posted a thread about the fact that the Twin Towers are shown in the Manhatten Skyline in the movie. This person thinks that the film makers shouldn't have put them in there because it'll take people out of the movie.
The movie is set in an alternate 1985. So of course the Towers would be there. They're not just gonna pretend that they didn't exist. And as for taking people out of the movie, I didn't even notice them in the Skyline and probably wouldn't have if I hadn't read that thread or atleast until I got the dvd. So I don't agree with that.
Also, some people are making such a big deal about the fact that they show full frontal nudity a few times for Dr. Manhatten. First of all, his entire body was done in CGI so it's not even real. Two, the shots are usually from far enough away that I for one didn't even really notice. After all when someone is talking I tend to focuse on their face and not their exposed body parts. lol. I mean the movie is rated R, so anyone going to see it should be mature enough that some nudity shouldn't bother you. And children shouldn't be seeing this movie anyway, no matter what.
