THE TRUTH Behind Dr. Manhattan's LIMITLESS Power!

"We're all puppets, Laurie. I'm just a puppet who can see the strings.” -Jon "Doctor Manhattan" Osterman

There's been a disturbance in the DC multiverse as of late. Space and time itself seem to be in jeopardy through the actions of a mysterious meddler from beyond existence, and many fingers are pointing to the nigh-omnipotent Doctor Manhattan. The truth...? Yeah, that's proooobably right, but in his original story, the good doctor was just a simple matter manipulator among street heroes. The entity DC is dealing with seems to bend reality to its very will with no clear limitations. Could this really be the work of America's quantum superman from an entire franchise away? Studies suggest the odds are once again on our side! But this time, it will take more than science to explain away our newest god on Earth! A dash of philosophy, a pinch of String Theory, and one solid origin story courtesy of Tyler and The Imaginary Axis! Just what the doctor ordered!

Dr Manhattan said "Everybody is a puppet, I am just the puppet who can see the strings".
You have to listen 😂

"I'm disappointed in you, Adrian. I'm very disappointed. Reassembling myself was the first trick I learned. It didn't kill Osterman. Did you really think it would kill me? I have walked across the surface of the sun. I have witnessed events so tiny and so fast, they could hardly be said to have occurred at all. But you, Adrian, you're just a man. The world's smartest man poses no more threat to me than does its smartest termite."

13:00 So you're saying he _could_ put on some clothes, but he rolls in his birthday suit just to flex? *Madlad.*

So how strong is Dr. Manhattan?


Answer: Yes.

Putting yourself back together when you don't exist, dope.

Accidently skipped forward a few minutes and heard tyler screaming "YOU ARE NOTHING!" Like aight man I'm trying.

It’s kind of a shame that It was stated that he moves space around him to teleport rather than just deconstructing/destroying himself and taking particles from another place and reconstructing them. I really like the idea that he was constantly killing Laurie and other people he was teleporting and recreating a copy somewhere else. It would add to his indifference to human life like, your made of the same particles so who cares? 😂

Dr Manhattan is definitely one of my favorite superhero characters and not because of his power (un)limits. I actually prefer the characters that are more closely relatable to us as human beings. Superheroes like Daredevil, Batman, The Punisher, etc. They are reasonably limited and that creates more suspense for me.

As for Dr Manhattan, I think that he's is relatable in a different way. Of course he has god-like power, but he was born human and he struggles with the same existential crises that people do. He feels the way we might feel under his circumstances. Not being able to experience time? That's rough, buddy. No wonder he might be depressed and longing for something more in a multiverse. He represents the paradox of our human drive towards longevity or immortality while also being overwhelmed by eternality.

Dr Manhattan also symbolizes our drive to uncover and marvel at mysteries. He was a scientist and tinkerer. He liked to take things apart and see how they work and can be put back together just like we do with objects, stories, and reasoning itself. He is naturally a human being warped by godly power and it shows. I like Dr Manhattan because of the questions his existence begs and the experience one of us might go through in his shoes.

As a first time viewer, this went WAY WAY deeper into the nerd kingdom than I expected. I LOVED it lol

I'm surprised Tyler haven't said the word "soul" in this entire damn video.

[cesarrodriguez]

Dr. Manhattan is a puppet. He is such a sad and tragic character in Watchmen. In the book, he makes no major decisions for himself. His father makes him become a scientist, he accidentally locks himself in the chamber, he is used by the US govt. for war, he unknowingly gets set up by Ozymandias and exiles himself on Mars. My point is.that everything happens to him and he never guides his own life.

Came for the absurd nerd talk..
Stayed for the deep philosophical contemplation of consciousness existing in higher dimentions beyond physical reality.

That "He came back" Always give me shivers. 5:30
Like ok Tyler, I'm listening.... a subject that seems at first absolutely trivial, that one line solely made it absolutely EPIC
