V for Vendetta - 20/20 Filmsight
May 15th 2006 01:13
There's nothing quite like the feeling of complimenting yourself. It's like taking yourself out on a date, buying yourself an expensive bottle of Merlot, then trying to get fresh with yourself in the car.
And so, I name my post on V for Vendetta as the Mighty Post of the Day!
What did I say? This:
"Who is V? He's a monster, of sorts, a monster created by the monstrosity of the government - thus a fitting magistrate and executioner for the corruption and decadence of the totalitarian regime."
Part of me shed a tear, nearly, as I thought about my own Fawkesian struggle against the tyranny of my own heart. See? I just made up a nonsensical sentance, but you probably believed it to be profound.
Again, I said:
"This isn't just about revolutionaries and insane governments, though... even behind V's cold mask, we can feel his personality break through. Director James McTeigue uses lighting and angles to give the Fawkes mask countless layers of emotion. Yes, you can see V's surprise, anger and most of all, his dignity and pride. It's as touching as a movie gets, and a brief kiss between Evey and V somehow managed to be the most romantic on-screen kiss seen in quite a while."
In conclusion, isn't it disgusting when you can hear someone eating? You can hear their lips smacking together, their rubbery tongue flopping around - just sick.

Is the talent really that thin on the ground???
I say it's rigged! I question your impartiality!
AND I was too late for your morning post check. *sniff* I miss your religious comment-making. It's all because we're unworthy of having Australian time zone post clocks =/
Btw looking forward to grossing you out with eating noises *chomp chomp slurp slurp*

Um... the post of the day may be partially rigged, but I'm partial to impartiality.
