V for Vendetta

Has anyone seen the trailers for this movie? It's from the directors of the Matrix, it looks amazing. The movie and overall theme feels like a mix of modernized Hitler / natzi and Batman.

Another movie that is going to be amazing. I'm really looking forward to the storyline in this.

I can't wait. I'm going to be out of the country when it comes out though. I'll have to see it when I come back.

I just got back from this movie and have mixed opinons. There were a few messages, some I agree with and some I don't think should be in film First, what I agree with:

The government should server its people, not rule and opress it

What I don't agree with:

The writers adding in homosexuality. Such things are not needed in a movie, I personally don't like how they try to portray religion in the movie either.

I felt like I was being brainwashed into the writers own thinkings and beliefs. If it wasn't for the action I would of walked out.

Homosexuals are people like anyone else. Why shouldn't they be portrayed in movies? As for religion, well, everyone's entitled to their opinions, including movie producers. No one's forcing you to watch the movie, right?

Yeh but no matter how stupid/horrable a director may be, its his film and for the time being he is always right.
