Also: as said in my lj, upon my rewatch of Watchmen, the gay just kinda leapt out and smacked me. First time it just kinda poked me. I must not've been wearing my slash-goggles. lol.
It's oompletely worth it if only for the Hollis death scene and Dan's rage. It also makes the ending that much sadder for Dan, because it really kinda smacks you in the face that "HEY! Dan just lost two of his closest friends IN ONE DAY. Of course he's going to be raging that much harder at Adrian." And that's not even mentioning the other little scenes that were cut out (like the ~*~lapel adjusting~*~ and Rorschach's "possibly homosexual" line about Adrian).
XD The first time I watched it, I decided that I could ship Dan/Rorschach at the "Great times, what happened?"/"You quit." scene. Then by the end of the movie, me and kirihana527 (who went with me to see it) looked at each other and went "YUP. WE SHIP IT." (We also ship Rorschach/His hat. But that's for entirely silly reasons.) Then I read the comic, got involved with the fandom (particurally, the Dan/Ror community) and by the time I saw it a second time (when it hit the $2 cinema), I was able to see the gay just a little bit more. Like at the end, when Dr. Manhattan smashes the glass roof

"Possibly homosexual" line? Okay. I've got to have it. (On that note: Adrian=flaming gay)
I read the comic and was like "yeah...I see the subtext." Saw the movie and the scene in your icon was more shippy in the movie(lingering hand) so I said "kinda ship it". The net made me ship it so now the subtext is too obvious to ignore. Though I haven't really hung out in the Dan/Ro comm, I've mostly just lurked in elevator_shaft. OMG! I didn't really notice that. Damn...this just means I must watch again.
Awesome-sauce. We're gonna spend so much time in front of the TV....
So I was doing this thing on FB where I had to pick five things that remind me of my best friend. They were (in order, sadly) fish, Kirk and Spock being total gay lovers, Organization XIII, Patrick Wilson, and Ludo. I'm not sure what the fact that fish was number one says about us.
I need a FISH! icon...banditjoeykubaJuly 28 2009, 17:39:23 UTC
I'm still not entirely sure if I'll be able to though; a lot of people are taking vacation in these next couple weeks. But I'm going to try. Meanwhile: Kirk/Mountain... XD.
WHY CAN'T I HEAR ANY FISH?! D:< But lol. I'm amused by your list. It's kinda sad that fish is like... our longest lasting inside joke.
