Watchmen’s Dr. Manhattan Is Hung Huge?

L: Wow, Billy Crudup as Dr. Manhattan in the much anticipated upcoming Watchmen flick seems to packing a major punch in that griping and glowing blue bulge of his. I’m getting blue balls.

Is Billy happy with his bulging CGI package? He’s hung like a blue horse.

“I’m not saying how much the computer helped. Actually, I didn’t fully expect the interest that Dr. Manhattan’s genitalia has received. But I understood his motivation for baring it all,” he says. “Why would the guy with all this power really care about a uniform? He doesn’t need to obey society’s constraints because, if he wanted to, he could destroy society. So I think he kind of feels like, ‘You know what? I enjoy a good breeze on my private parts.”

Q: Not to get too personal, but were you unclothed on the set?

A: I am naked often, but was not naked that I recall during filming. I wore a pair of what were pretty elaborate pajamas and they were studded with about 1,200 blue LED’s so that Dr. Manhattan would glow blue. There were also motion capture electrodes on my body and I had over a hundred on my face. They all sent data into a computer that really created the Dr. Manhattan you see on the screen. My performance was basically just laying the groundwork for the CGI.

L: Oh, we are so there at the first screening. In line with all the comic dorks…. and Alex.
