…and of course, Elvis again proves to be The King: \*I’ll have a blue penis without you I’ll be so blue just thinking about you Decorations of red on a green christmas tree Won’t be the same dear, if you’re not here with me And when those blue snowflakes start falling That’s when those blue memories start calling You’ll be doin’ all right, with your christmas of white But I’ll have a blue, blue blue blue penis \* ---

> [@Scylla](#): > > I get her point. The big blue penis did get a lot of screen time, and it was actually the most expressive part of Dr. Manhattan’s character. None of the rest of him moved, but it was kind of hypnotic to watch it swing back and forth as we walked down the stairs. It was especially hypnotic as it was somewhat out of synch, like it was extremely heavy and swinging underwater. > > The big blue penis seems to have a lot more mass than a normal penis, like it’s filled with mercury or something. We watched _Watchmen_ here in Bangkok yesterday afternoon (Saturday afternoon), and the penis was a big blue blur. The local censors managed to blur it so skillfully that you had to look closely to tell it was not really that way in the film itself. Not pixellated, but a sort of vague blue blur. They did pixellate out Rorschach’s meat-cleaver scene but thankfully left Silk Specter’s nude scenes intact. (Insert obligatory penis/Bang-kok joke here.) Not that I want to see giant penises or cleaver murders, but this sort of censorship I find annoying and childish. They keep saying they’re “about” to institute a new Western-style ratings code and do away with such censorship, but it never seems to happen. And yet they left all of the scenes completely intact in recent Oscar nominees like _The Reader_. It’s really hit or miss the way they do it. It’s especially galling because while they feel the need to protect my delicate sensibilities from big blue penises, there are several live lesbian sex shows around and more than a few bars where you can get a blowjob at the bar while you’re enjoying a cold brewski and watching hard-core porn on the TV above the bar. But heaven forbid I be subjected to a big blue animated penis. ---
