The Audience Reaction Thread

[PyroChamber]

At the theater, we all thought something was wrong with the movie because it took like 10 seconds before the yellow and black WB logo appeared

Uhm I was to busy watching the movie that I paid for to give two sh**s about who is doing what. What in the hell is wrong with you people serioiusly?

Most of us are just relating what the environments were like around us during our viewing of the film. Some were humorous, others more observational. Is that wrong, especially considering that the question posed by this particular thread?

Laughs at music cues, laughs at blue man parts, laughs at the lynx, laughs at Hooded Justice's entry, a somewhat unusual amount of laughter towards Dan's 'difficulties', laughs at the sex scene, laughs at nixon. A lot of laughs at things that I don't think were sopose to be necessarily funny.Good percentage of people half asleep or got bored and started talking.

I saw the movie twice, the first time was hilarious because it was all nerds and there was almost a nerd war during the trailers when somebody yelled "Trek Sucks". Also "WTF cyclops" for wolverine trailer and "me and you are done professionally man" for Terminator and my favorite..."Why the F are they showing kid **** before a rape movie!?" after the preview for Up.

[Symbiotic]

Fair amount of interaction last night at my theater. There were "Ooohs" just about everytime Rorschach inflicted pain on someone. Same thing with Veidt's secretary getting shot and Dan and Laurie taking out the Knotheads. Laughter with Rorschach saying "I'm not locked in here with you, you're locked in here with me!", the stuff with Big Figure, and Dan saying "Aw hell." when he couldn't get it up. And when Dan was looking at the Nite Owl suit naked, a guy behind me said to his friends "I'm tired of looking at dudes' a**es." Solid crowd overall.

Not as immature as I would think. Overall pretty good. There was of course giggles from DM. That nervous laughter. But I'm sure the women weren't complaining. I still can't piece togetaher why women are attracted to DM.

Um he has like a near perfect physique?

I can't piece together why women are attracted to Orlando Bloom.

But he's blue an un human like?

Is that somehow sexy?

 

[TheDarkKnight08]

The crowd went nuts when Rorschach threw the hot oil on the prisinor, but my black friend got extremely angry, but he was just joking. There were some unneccesary laughs, like went we first see Jon on Mars. I was kinda mad, because it's obvious they didn't get it. But it was nice to see them applaud after Dan FINALLY got it up.

IDK I guess it falls under the same appeal as Mystique for men

 

[Doctor Jones]

You're right. t:

 

[Doctor Jones]

My friend asked me a very good quetion about if Rorchach was a convicted felon, and if he went back to tell of Veidt and his plan, why would anyone believe someone like him?

 

[I Am The Knight]

My theater was pretty mature. They laughed at all the right parts, like the ejaculating Archie. There gasps audible during some of the opening credits. Dr. Manhattan's blue wang drew some minor gasps too, but people seemed fine with it. Also, every time some extremely violent act occurred, people were like "Damn!" Overall, pretty good. There were some fans of the GN and I overheard them discussing the ending after the movie haha.

 

[CashforStash]

A dad and his 8 year old daughter walked out a second the sex scene started, it was funnny :P

 

[Robdixxo]

There was a younger gentleman sitting next to me who giggled every time the penis was shown like it was a natural reflex or something. Even when the penis was far away in the background. Needless to say, it was quite annoying.

 

[BirdsDoThus]

At the midnight showing, when Laurie says the line "I'm used to going at at 3 in the morning and doing something stupid" some guy yelled "CRACK!!" and that got a pretty large laugh out of the audience. Come on, we were all thinking it.

Both times I saw the movie, the audience could not get over Manhattan's penis. Everytime he turned around on screen there were giggles. At one point a girl in the back of the theater yelled out "PUT ON SOME CLOTHES".

People loved the Captain Carnage story, and the laughter was so loud over Rorschach's "You're fat" line that we missed entirely the following lines (In the second showing. In the midnight the audience seemed to know that wasn't the whole response). The prison scenes got a huge rise out of the audience, especially the "One nothing" and "Two nothing" lines.

A couple of people were freaking out over Bubastis. Everytime she was on screen someone would be all "Seriously though, what the hell??"

 

[Doctor Jones]

The Captain Carnage story got a great response also. And the "You're fat" line.

"My hands, you're prespective."

 

[BirdsDoThus]

Only he says "You're hands, my pleasure". Why did they have to change that one word? They would have gotten so much more of a reaction otherwise.

 

[Doctor Jones]

Oh, yeah, I forgot that. Yeah, that would have gotten a better reaction.

 

[StrainedEyes]

During the first attempted sex scene with Dan, when he couldn't get it up. As he was taking off his shirt some like 10 year old said "That's gross." and everyone laughed. I didn't find it funny.

Later as I left, some woman was saying how the sex scene was inappropriate, citing the little kid in the theater as a reason, not realizing that the movie is rated R and the inappropriate part of that is the little kid.

 

[BirdsDoThus]

Yeah, what's wrong with some parents man?

 

[Doctor Jones]

Idiocracy, it's disease with no cure.

Christ, I sound like Rorchach.

 

[Doctor Jones]

Right before Kovacs put the bubbling fat in the prisoner's face, when you saw it on the tray and he looked at it, the audience went, "ooohhhh" Like a "I know what's coming and it's not gonna be pretty."

Same here, man. And when he actually threw it, everyone groaned, and was generally disguted. My friend, jokingly, though it was racist that one of the only black people in the movie got killed in prison by cooking oil. Then when Rorschach said the line about them being locked up in there with him, the entire crowd went nuts, and I just had to get and yell to the top of my lungs!
