What did you think of V for Vendetta?

haha. some how i don't have a hard time beleiving you, doc. you may be by far the most eccentric member i know. close second is possibly bigevilhead.

i didn't see it either. if they are going to make a movie by Moore, he had better have something to do with it. after i read from hell that movie was trash. i didnt even bother with League.

ha, well do you even speak the language the woman you are dating does?

HEY!!!

The language.... of LOVE? ;D

I saw it. Having never read the comic (I know, just shoot me) I have the unique perspective as seeing it as just the movie without any preconcieved notions. I thought it was OK. It didn't make me care about "the revolution" I was more intrigued by V himself and they never really delved much into the man...I know, it's supposed to be about the ideal and not the man. They sure shoved that down my throat enough that I got it.
Spolier warning.... if you are going to see it don't read any further.

.If the freeing of society was his purpose, and not the killing of his "creators" then why did he kill them first? Wouldn't it have been a bigger blow to them to see their society they had created fall first and then kill them? The final deaths were particularly overdone. I'm not sqeamish about blood, but it looked like there was a grip off-camera shooting cherry koolaid with a super soaker water gun.

See it. It's not a bad way to spend a evening, but don't expect Alan Moore greatness and thought provoking cinema.

Hey, you did ask.

I think Moore's original graphic novel can not be beat as far as the story goes, but keeping in mind what I've learned about the troubles they had to go through (the studio and producers and such) and the thnigs they had to tread carefully on (terrorism, the thought of anarchy, etc) I have to say they made a pretty damn good adaptation. We've all seen plenty of comic book movies that had nothing stopping it from telling a story and some a-hole decides to change the whole story around *cough cough* catwoman *cough cough* but this did a good job with all of the obstacles in its way.

Lucky Number Slevin was really good too. Funny ("with witty dialogue!") and plot that begins to become so good, you won't realize there was such a deep plot til you get to it. If that makes any sense at all.
