but really though, why did he kill Kennedy? is it something explained in the books but not in the movie, or am I just a retard who missed it?
The why doesnt really matter, just the fact that he was a government agent willing to do it.
>>71809058
He worked for the government. The government (probably Nixon) ordered him to do it.
>>71809058
In the comic there's only a vague hint that he killed JFK, and that was because he basically did whatever he was told.
Zack Snyder doesn't know how to into subtlety
>>71809058
so i'm guessing you also think Oswald was just some ordinary citizen and not a hired gun by the government

>Zack Snyder doesn't know how to into subtlety
That sequence was beautiful. His fall from grace from the comfy Minute Men in the montage. In it's way it was a subtle way to show the act itself. Would you have rather another character have to spell it out w/ expository?
>>71809214
Don't get me wrong, I loved the opening scene, it was great, but that specific JFK part just didn't need to be shown.
>>71809248
I enjoyed it
>>71809267
Maybe that's why you ended up on /tv/
>>71809113
Nixon was working in private practice in '63. If anything it was the CIA working with Bell Helicopter to sell Hueys.
>>71809248
I guess it didn't NEED to be shown, but I think it added more than it detracted.
>>71809058
>retard who missed it
Don't go looking for deeper meaning in a Zack Snyder film, you'll go insane.
>>71809058
he was a neo-con before neo-cons were a thing
also he was obsessed with war. the comics explain what his character does better.
>>71809132
Oswald did kill Kennedy though
>>71809294
It was a communist named Oswald, you dumb goy.
>>71809463
Liberals can't accept that communism is evil, dude. Hence the conspiracy theories.
>>71809463

>Oswald
>one gunman
>hitting a moving target from the 23rd floor with a rifle built in the 1950's
UM......
>>71809058
he didn't kill kennedy.
>>71809569
Yeah no way that would be possible to do :^)
>>71809569
It was a Carcano Rifle. They weren't being made anymore by the 1950's. They were built from 1892 to 1945. Though to be fair, Carcanos are regarded for their accuracy.
>>71809058
Kennedy had to be killed because he was a communist sympathizer.
>>71809132
Yeah, but he stuck by the socialist thing pretty well.
Lotta loyalty for a hired gun.
>>71809569
how is the fact that he is high up even a negative factor? that would probably have just made the shot that much easier to pull of.
>>71809569
What, you think snipers are a recent phenomenon?
>>71809569
he was a muhriiine
>>71809569
>no such thing as shot of the gods in real life
guy was prob taking pot shots and was like OH SHIT when he was actually right on target
>>71809569
>carcano
>built in the 50's
>not accurate
>not the best thing to come out of Italy besides their food and loud, thick catholic women
>>71809058
He didn't kill JFK though, read Before Watchmen it's canon
>>71809294
I thought it was because of the March on Washington and HUAC and Blacklist, no?
>>71809569
>a rifle built in the 1950's
You know even muskets built in the late 1800s were accurate up to 400 yards, right?
