    V for Vendetta? More like C for Crap!

    That movie was fucking HORRIBLE!!! What a vastly metaphoric terrorist sympathizing crap of a film! The political agenda is shoved into your face repeatedly throughout the movie and it's usually a bunch of mindless rhetoric. The 3 or 4 short action scenes were decent as best but the rest of the film was a huge steaming pile of shit.

    If you haven't seen this movie then don't waste your money. I do find it ironic that the film takes place in futuristic England (after the U.S. self destructs) and is served a heaping dose of "liberty through terrorism" by a dude dressed up like a French martyr. What is this world coming to?!?!?

    If I had 4 hands I would give it 4 thumbs down.

              Any movie that makes a terrorist out to be the "good guy" is not a movie I care to watch.

              In my opinion, it was nothing more than a multi-million dollar Al Qaeda recruitment film.

                              Nope, not at all. I'm just a supporter in making my own decisions and found it extremely ironic that the regime the "Frenchy Terrorist" was fighting against was doing EXACTLY what the movie was doing...force feeding political agendas and thought into the viewers.

                              The movie sucked regardless if I supported Bush, Kerry, Hillary, Sadaam, or Bin Laden.

                                  It was a great movie. Not in my top 10 all time but good nonetheless and the political message is one that has to be spread. Ppl need to do something about it. America needs a modern day Ghandi.

                                      the 5th of November

                                      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guy_Fawkes

                                      V for Vendetta wasn't written to sympathize with Al Qaeda or whatever else your brainwashing has resulted in making you believe.

                                      V for Vendetta was originally published between 1982 and 1985.

                                      An extreme fascist single-party state has arisen, called Norsefire, that maintains control of the country through food shortages (arising during the nuclear winter), government-controlled media, secret police, a planned economy, and concentration camps for racial and sexual minorities.

                                      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V_for_Vendetta

                                      If the message angers you, great. It's because you're making the connections and don't like how you feel about it. Otherwise, there would be no way you'd make a connection between the government in the movie and our government today.

                                          You can't tell me that the screenwriters, producers and/or directors didn't have their own political agenda they were pushing. Brujah, you seem like an intelligent person that is able to read between the lines. I can't understand how anyone that has a standard IQ couldn't see what they were pushing.

                                          Quote from the movie....

                                          "Sometimes it takes something drastic to change things and change how people look at things. Blowing up one building can accomplish this and force things to change...."

                                          That is not the exact quote verbatum but that is the jist of it.

                                              First it's not futuristic dumbass. It's an ALTERNATE future. Germany wins WWII in this story. Thus everything changes.

                                              Even though the comic books were written over 20 years ago before there was an Al Queda.

                                              I suppose Americas founding fathers were "terrorists" in your eyes too.

                                                              I sure hope that you made this statement BEFORE seeing the movie! If Germany won WWII then why did they show footage of the U.S. in Iraq and go into descriptions on how the "War Happy" U.S. pretty much imploded. And in the movie it was the outbreak of disease and anarchy that helped the regime come into power...not the Germans winning WWII! That wasn't even fucking mentioned. Maybe in the 20 year old comic book but not in this movie. In this movie they spun the original storyline to fit their own agenda.

                                                              And it is futuristic, dumbass! Go watch the movie and get back to me on that one. Straight from the Official V for Vendetta website in the sysnopsis it reads..."Set against the futuristic landscape of totalitarian Britain, V For Vendetta tells the story..." - Now go buy a clue, dipshit!

                                                                                                  Of course there are alternative methods, but, the blowing shit up method is what most people and governments usually opt for. Either it be a "terrorist" or even our own government (note that I quoted terrorist because that word is very vague. Defining a person as a terrorist all depends on your point of view)

                                                                                                              Of course there are alternative methods, but, the blowing shit up method is what most people and governments usually opt for. Either it be a "terrorist" or even our own government (note that I quoted terrorist because that word is very vague. Defining a person as a terrorist all depends on your point of view)

                                                                                                                                  Why would throw in insults? You have your opinion and I have mine... we both see things differently. Are you stupid cause you don't share the same vision? nope...

                                                                                                                                  Its just part of life.

                                                                                                                                      In my opinion, it was nothing more than a multi-million dollar Al Qaeda recruitment film.

                                                                                                                                      Jesus Christ you guys ... that'D be censorship. Try to view both point of views. That's what they tried to do. They don't glorify it... they just show it.

I get a real feeling that many of you missed the point entirely. I would suspect that those who didn't get it at either MTV fans or republican voters. Either you short attention span or fear that thing might reflect badly on Bush are getting ya... paranoia deep destroya!

                                                                                                                                              Seriously now...

                                                                                                                                              Because of the current world situation, it is easy to take the point of view of "it puts terrorists into a positive light" or "Bin Ladin's own recruitment film" but the reality is that this is as far from the truth - unless you truly believe that the US is as oppressive as the regime that is portrayed in the film. No matter the circumstance, I don't think that any true lover of freedom would want to see things end up in the situaiton that this movie portrays. Would you really give up all of your freedoms just to be "safe"? I am sure that this circumstance would generate some people fighting against the system.

                                                                                                                                              Today we call them "terrorists", in the past they were called "revolutionaries" or "members of the boston tea party" or whatever. Terrorist is a hot button word that has been filtered and controlled through the media that when you hear it, you think of the twin towers, Bin Ladin, and all things bad. As a result, when you see V in this movie and they call him a terrorist, you get that bad image.

                                                                                                                                              The reality is that like many of the revolutionaries that brought the US into being, V is fighting against a system so completely corrupt that the only way to overcome it is to destroy it. You may not like his methods, you may not like the idea of death and destruction, but LOOK AT YOUR OWN HISTORY... the US exists because of these exact type of acts.

                                                                                                                                              Terrorism isn't the movies central theme, far from it. The main themes are fear, intimidation, and that people sadly are sheep and will eat whatever comes up on their television as the truth. Even V uses fear and intimidation to get the point made, and there is a moment where even V's biggest fans will truly hate the man for what he has done.

                                                                                                                                              If you only watch this movie and absorb only the surface, I think you will find yourself not at all comfortable with the ending and the end results. If you dig a little deeper, you will find the human spirit and the desire to be free right there under your nose.

                                                                                                                                              Turn off MTV. Stop worrying about the boy president, and take the time to truly understand and enjoy a well written, well executed movie with a much more subtle message than many people will get.

Stop worrying about the boy president, and take the time to truly understand and enjoy a well written, well executed movie with a much more subtle message than many people will get.

Some of us are entertained by actually USING our brains rather than switching them off for a cheap laugh and visual valium to make our pathetic lives pass a little more quickly.

Brujah, you seem like an intelligent person that is able to read between the lines. I can't understand how anyone that has a standard IQ couldn't see what they were pushing.

                                                                                                                                                                      Quote from the movie....

                                                                                                                                                                      "Sometimes it takes something drastic to change things and change how people look at things. Blowing up one building can accomplish this and force things to change...."

                                                                                                                                                                      That is not the exact quote verbatum but that is the jist of it.
                                                                                                                                                                      The story is an adaption from a comic book written in the 80's.. Back when Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher ran the world. So your claim that the powers that be in Hollywood made the movie to mirror todays headlines is completely crap. The quotes you are all quoting is from the comic book and not from a screne writers mind.

                                                                                                                                                                      Saying so would be like saying an adaption of Roger Waters Radio KOAS and its nuclear fear are playing on todays headlines about North Korea and Iran.

                                                                                                                                                                              and now i see the same simplistic bullshit here.

                                                                                                                                                                              if you can't tell the difference between the current day US (or more accurately, the 1980s Britain of Margaret Thatcher) - and the facist, totalitarian British society created in the movie (and in the book written decades ago) - then just go back to your "would you hit it" threads.

                                                                                                                                                                              and btw...if you really have a need to find an evil current day society that's somewhat analogous to the totalitarian British regime in the movie, I'd try looking at the Muslim side of the world rather than the US.

                                                                                                                                                                                      and btw...if you really have a need to find an evil current day society that's somewhat analogous to the totalitarian British regime in the movie, I'd try looking at the Muslim side of the world rather than the US.

I got a copy right off the press. Quite a buzz about Alan Moore's newest work then.

                                                                                                                                                                                          Although Moore and the then 'British Wave' of writers were dominating the market. It was like 'if they're British then they're good writers' bullshit. Moore stands out but not always what's hot in Britain is what's hot here in the U.S. Moore and Gaiman are the rare exceptions. Moore has integrity but lacks the drive to be on the sets to make sure things go right so his movies end up being what he doesn't enjoy hence his separation from the project.

                                                                                                                                                                                          The book was too much for me. I like a good read but heavy drama, melodrama in a comic book doesn't sit for me. I can't stand sitting there for hours just reading about people having deep conversations. Talking heads do not a comic book make.

                                                                                                                                                                                          It's a great venue for telling a story but it wasn't my cup of tea although I do find Moore's work outstanding.

                                                                                                                                                                                          So what's wrong with the movie is that it doesn't follow Moore's vision and astute viewers can tell there's something missing.

                                                                                                                                                                                          We'll what Moore and his fans have to say after the long run as well as the box office receipts.
