V for Vendetta

[Danger Mouse]

You didn't even like Gwyneth Paltrow's?

Paltrow's Brit in Sliding Doors was leaps and bounds better than Portman's.

 

[Chris Wallace]

It was better than some REAL accents I've heard.

 

[Bullseye]

Out of all the recent comic book films, I'd say V for Vendetta is at the top with Sin City and Batman Begins being second and third to it.

And I thought Portman did fine with her accent for the film.

It was terrible. No-one speaks even remotely like that in real life.

 

[OtepApe]

I didn't mind her accent really. Granted it wasn't perfect, but it wasn't distracting.

[Chris Wallace]

That's funny. Is anybody watching the movie Sunday?

 

[StorminNorman]

Got a whole party set up

 

[Bullseye]

That is truly terrific.

I just saw this film yesterday on DVD. Wish I would've saw it in theatres, but at the time I wasn't interested...boy, was that a mistake. This film was amazing, and not only was the action great (very well done) itactually had something to say...powerful film. It really deserves some awards....something!

funny story happened today. I went over to a friend's house for the evening and, having nothing better to do, we decided to rent a movie. I recommended a few movies that she hadn't seen yet and wouldn't you know it, one of them was V for Vendetta to which she agreed. So we crashed on the couch, ready to watch what I knew to be a powerful movie, but I had totally forgotten what day we were...

When Portman's voice began reciting the rhyme, Remember, remember, the 5th of november... at the beginning... we both looked at each other , looked up at the calendar on the wall and went "wow".

There is no coincidence heh?

 

[Chris Wallace]

I made a point of watching it on the 5th.

I'm new here, so I was hoping someone could answer my question. I love the movie, and I was just wondering why V put all of those books in Evey's room? It looks like he might have done it as soon as he brought her to his home. I was also wondering whether V knew Evey way before they even met. It seems kind of strange that he knew an awful lot about Gordon and they had the same types of interests such as things that was stolen from the Ministry of Objectional Material and about how he died and his Quran. V alway mentioned that he don't coincidence, so this led me to believe that he was planning to recruit Evey for a long time, and that he knew about her from Gordon. Just a thought!

If there were no Coincidences.

What was the connection between Gordon and V. 'Eggie in the basket.'

V and Edmound Dontes. 'Dontes new all his enemies before he was sent to Chateu Dif.' Did V know sutler, Creedy, or Prothero? Were they friends?

I just have to say that this is one of the best comic adaptions i have seen. It ranks high with me along with xmen 1 and 2, sin city and batman begins. Having never read the comics I was unsure about seeing this film but the plot intrigued me, and it was great. I also really liked the acting but natalie portman's accent was definitely shaky. If she could improve on that, it would be good

 

[RPG swordmaster]

Easily the best comic-based movie i have seen.

To emphasise the similarity between V and Gordon, superficially to make the viewer think, "Hey, maybe he's V!"

And, by the way, we in Britain do not eat, 'Eggy in a basket". Never in my life have I even heard it mentioned. As Alan Moore complained about.

hey kevin who is that guy in your avatar?

I'll admit I did think maybe that was a common dish over there. I've considered trying it but if the toast burned and/or the egg came out runny I'd be pissed.

 

[ZER0C00L]

iv made it, came out pretty taysty. just cook it on low heat.

maybe eggy in a basket came over to britan in the V ,movie universe since all the war and things happend. you know?

Dear god I hated "Eggy in a basket" that and the way that supposedly everyone in London says "Bollocks" well maybe Natalie Portmans accent aswell, but my word Weaving was superb.

 

[CLARKY]

whahahahahahaha! Excellent! Truly EXCELLENT!
Bravo.

V for Vendetta is one of my favourite movies, its certainly recommendable and easily the best comic film this year.

I agree, although the competition wasn't exactly stiff.
