Good. Now look at this one. Tell me what you see:
this is one of Rorschach's masks from Watchmen. they later use it as a recurring theme in the graphic novel (when Night Owl has a dream about holding Silk Spectre and they get blown away by an atomic bomb; towards the end of the book when the newsvendor holds the little boy) this is my favorite comic and all, but what is the point of this thread?
We create our own meaning. What is the point of this thread to YOU?
i was just pretty obsessed with the book years ago and was expecting big things for the movie (liked it, but not as epic as gilliam or fincher would've made it,) so it's hard for me to not associate a rorschach blot with Watchmen. maybe Andy Warhol's painting, but that's about it. i've even had this test done on me twice i think and all i can think about is Walter Kovacs(i've been 5150'd before a few times). ha. i even have a Rorschach mask or two (true nerd status.) BUT what i truly see is the silouhette of the couple holding before they both die from that atomic bomb. ever since i was a kid and saw Terminator 2 i've been terrified of nuclear war/the death of humanity. i wasn't able to shake that, so that's mainly what i see i guess. sorry for getting all comic nerdy on here.
