I am so hyped about 'V for Vendetta'

[Dajistano]

Movies whose plots involve totalitarian regimes and some kind of underworld gunning to overthrow them just fascinate me. [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]

I have one of those masks somewhere.

The movie intrigues me also. However, I've heard some opinions that this story is basically about a terrorist. So are there good terrorists and bad terrorists? [img]graemlins/hmmm.gif[/img]

That depends on how you define terrorist. Let's keep in mind that our goverment considering Native Americans terrorists by todays standards.

I doubt greatly that you'll see innocent people being killed by the hero in the film. However, buildings (government ones) do get blown up. Fighting and oppressive establishment is always a guerilla war.

It's pretty ironic to see John Hurt on that big screen after seeing him play Winston Smith in "1984"

I'm looking forward to this movie, if only because it was produced & written by the brothers that did the Matrix.

This movie is certainly going to cause a huge debate, as it has already begun and the thing isn't even in theaters yet.

Check out the Entertainment Weekly edition with a full article about the movie.
