Empire has exclusive behind-the-scenes images from Zack Snyder's Watchmen, featuring a flashback sequence set in Vietnam which explains the possibly Agent Orangey origins of Dr. Manhattan's blue wang.

And no—your eyes are not deceiving you. A higher res copy of the top image reveals that those rice farmer extras are indeed genuflecting before Tron Guy, who's apparently picked up some fanboy side-work as a stand-in. Fret not, however, as all traces of his little Tron wang will be wiped away through the magic of CGI, and replaced later with the luminescent majesty of Billy Crudup.
