Watchmen sex scene

Anyone else find that highly unnecessary and hilarious? In the background there was that Alleluia song, that was hilarious. Then when the orgasms came the fire came out of the ship:lol: I mean come on, highly unnecessary and I think the movie would have been better without it, it was like a soft core porno for a little bit.

they have it in the graphic novel

i thought it was pretty hawt:oops:

Honestly, i think this is true for most movies with sex scenes! :?

The same exact thing happened in the graphic novel except it didn't go on for 3 minutes and it wasn't played for laughs. It's an important part of the book too since it shows that the people have serious image issues and can only get it up if they're in their costumes. Laurie even says in the book "was it the costumes that made it good, Dan?".

I know what you mean, a lot of sex scences aren't needed in movies. They can do fine without them

Even though I haven't seen Watchmen but I'm laughing at the idea of an over played out sex scene being played out to Hallelujah.

We didn't say there was... Just saying that 99% of movies would be just as good, if not better, without them!

I havent seen but heard of it. Sounds like its the kind of thing that would get people talking in order to increase sales..... such as forums on a gaming site.

True, but like in 300, it was just weird and unnecessary, all I am saying is you don't need it, especially in a movie based on a graphic novel. Although it is R I saw a lot of kids with there parents, and to be honest they should know kids are going to see this so why put that dramatic of a sex scene in it? It makes no sense to me..

It was in the graphic novel, but I do think the music was over the top.

what was the song again?

It's not as graphic in the graphic novel. It's pretty much one panel.

True, but The Dark Knight didn't need a sex scene. The sex scene in Watchmen is important, at least it is in the graphic novel. They missed the point of it in the movie.

Like other users have said, those sex scenes are also in the graphic novels. They aren't unnecesary. The movie is staying true to the novel (also 300).

Well some of these directors need to hire Hue Heffner or someone because these sex scenes are getting terrible:lol:

I think the alien sex scene was even more awkward. Especially him walking around with his thing dangaling around the whole movie... Uncalled for.SonKev

Hugh Hefner in a sex scene? Thats disgusting!

It was in the book, and everything in the book should have been included in the movie. Although, yeah, that scene was one of the worst in the entire movies. Zack Shnyder is ****ing crazy, I swear.

It was in the comic, but it was too drawn out. This is the best way I can think of to say it. They could've fleshed out more details if they had detailed the flesh a little less.

aka_aj03

Yeah, and they intentionally made it more hardcore in the movie just to make the movie seem more badass.

Same thing with the sex and the violence. The comic was actually sort of classy about this sort of stuff. Yeah, the comic had shootings and murders and sex and penises.

But the movie had to make the penises twice as long as in the comic book. The movie had to turn every scene of violence into a hardcore gore shot when the comic book didn't even NEED to point out limbs being suspended from the ceiling by gore. Rorschach's origin story? Again, changed for no good reason just to put more goddamn gore into the movie.

**** that. The comic was mature as hell. It managed to be mature and adult WITHOUT dwelling on gore or scenes of sex. In the comics, the vast majority of this stuff is IMPLIED and it is actually the THEMES which makes it "mature reading". But the movie itself just tried to "spice things up" and make it more "extreme" by throwing in more gore and sex.

Yeah dude, they tried to sex it up and bloody it up because they didn't think audiences would be able to appreciate the THEMES. And in the ONE case in which they got rid of gore, that was also arguably the most important scene in which gore was CRITICAL. But no. The one scene in the book that actually called for gore was sterilised in the movie and replaced by the typical hole in the ground. Which only happened because the filmmakers thought that the audience would be too stupid to follow the original ending, so they changed it and neutered it for idiots.

The worst part was that Dan was just plain ugly:P

btw the first time they did it, and nite owl said "give me a minute", was he trying to get it up? :lol:lonewolf604

She had a nice body :oops:

[QUOTE="lonewolf604"]btw the first time they did it, and nite owl said "give me a minute", was he trying to get it up? :lol:Tauruslink

Yes, Nite Owl was impotent. He was unable to "get it up" because at that point in time it was DANIEL DREIBERG who was trying to have sex, NOT Nite Owl.

Daniel Dreiberg is impotent and Nite Owl is not. The point is that he is such a maladjusted individual that he cannot properly function without putting on a stupid-ass owl costume.

sex sells

Geezer doe make a good point. The amount of gore might not have been needed,but the sex scene makes a point, except they chose the wrong song. Maybe an original song should've been done for that scene

I enjoyed Watchmen and want to read the graphic novel.

The film overall was good, but me and my friend burst out laughing during the sex scene. It was just so appaulingly bad. I can see what they were trying to do but just because it works in the graphic novel, doesn't mean its gonna work on the big screen.
