  • From: Reviews and Criticism of Vietnam War Theatrical and Television Dramas ( Compiled by John K
    From: Reviews and Criticism of Vietnam War Theatrical and Television Dramas (http://www.lasalle.edu/library/vietnam/FilmIndex/home.htm) compiled by John K. McAskill, La Salle University ([email protected]) W2835 WATCHMEN (USA, 2009) Credits: director, Zack Snyder ; writers, David Hayter, Alex Tse ; graphic novel, Alan Moore, Dave Gibbons. Cast: Malin Akerman, Billy Crudup, Matthew Goode, Jackie Earle Haley, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Patrick Wilson, Carla Gugino. Summary: Science fiction/superhero film based on the graphic novel written by Alan Moore and illustrated by Dave Gibbons. Set in an alternative 1985 US governed by Richard Nixon with occasional flashbacks to prior events. Masked superheroes were a normal part of American life through the 1960s. In Vietnam, the Comedian (Morgan) wields a flame thrower and engages in ground combat operations until the radioactive blue giant Dr. Manhattan (Crudup) arrives, at the behest of President Nixon, and ends the war in a matter of weeks. A formation of surrendering Viet Cong bow down to the Dr. like a god. In a Saigon bar shortly thereafter, the Comedian is confronted by his pregnant Vietnamese mistress about the future of their unborn child and he calmly shoots her. After Vietnam, masked superheroes were forced into retirement. However, as Cold War tensions between the US and the Soviet Union begin to rise, a washed up but no less determined masked vigilante named Rorschach (Haley) discovers a plot to kill and discredit all past and present superheroes. As Rorschach and his small group of retired superheroes investigate, they discover a deeper conspiracy with links to their shared past and catastrophic consequences for the future.

    HOW SUPERMAN DEVELOPED INTO A JESUS FIGURE CRISIS ON INFINITE TEXTS: HOW SUPERMAN DEVELOPED INTO A JESUS FIGURE By ROBERT REVINGTON, B.A., M.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts McMaster University © Copyright by Robert Revington, September 2018 MA Thesis—Robert Revington; McMaster University, Religious Studies McMaster University MASTER OF ARTS (2018) Hamilton, Ontario, Religious Studies TITLE: Crisis on Infinite Texts: How Superman Developed into a Jesus Figure AUTHOR: Robert Revington, B.A., M.A (McMaster University) SUPERVISOR: Professor Travis Kroeker NUMBER OF PAGES: vi, 143 ii MA Thesis—Robert Revington; McMaster University, Religious Studies LAY ABSTRACT This thesis examines the historical trajectory of how the comic book character of Superman came to be identified as a Christ figure in popular consciousness. It argues that this connection was not integral to the character as he was originally created, but was imposed by later writers over time and mainly for cinematic adaptations. This thesis also tracks the history of how Christians and churches viewed Superman, as the film studios began to exploit marketing opportunities by comparing Superman and Jesus. This thesis uses the methodological framework of intertextuality to ground its treatment of the sources, but does not follow all of the assumptions of intertextual theorists. iii MA Thesis—Robert Revington; McMaster University, Religious Studies ABSTRACT This thesis examines the historical trajectory of how the comic book character of Superman came to be identified as a Christ figure in popular consciousness. Superman was created in 1938, but the character developed significantly from his earliest incarnations.
