Big Blue Brother Is Watching

watchmenimax

 

This is the poster for the IMAX release of The Watchmen, and while it's a pretty picture and all I can't seem to get the thought out of my head that Dr. Manhattan looks like some sort of ethereal "Big Brother" here like he was something out of George Orwell's 1984. 

 

It's like he's the all knowing authority that looks down upon the world with his whited out  all seeing eyes.  It's kind of creepy.  I wonder if that was what the designers were going for.
