"But, really, without any context - or, hell, even with it - the intro to JOE 90 is still kind of nervous-making. I didn't particularly like this show even as a kid. There was something essentially Wrong about it. Stick a kid with fucked-up eyes in a huge spinning machine with pulsating lights while computers ooze magnetic tape like worms. The machine he's in, by the way, is called The Big Rat. Which is also kind of Wrong." via Ellis

Anarcho-primitivism is an anarchist critique of the origins and progress of civilization. According to anarcho-primitivism, the shift from hunter-gatherer to agricultural subsistence gave rise to social stratification, coercion, and alienation.

You get to see plenty of Dr. Manhattan, Rorschach looks fantastic as does Nite Owl
You get to see plenty of Dr. Manhattan, Rorschach looks fantastic as does Nite Owl's ship as it emerges from the water. You get a look at just about every character involved including the Comedian and Silk Spectre II, you see a bit of Jon as he is about to disintegrate and plenty of him afterward as well as a scene in which I believe is him making his first appearance and if you are wondering if we will see full frontal Dr. Manhattan... you do... and I am shocked the MPAA is letting it slide.
