    Good movie, definitely lots of 1984 references (Orwell).

    Best quote: "People shouldn't be afraid of their Government, a Government should be afraid of it's people!"

    Or
    "Bollox!"

    TBH, all the rumours of a Watchmen film just make me shudder and I hope it never happens.

    I haven't actually read the original story myself. I certainly will now though.

    One of the reasons why I enjoyed the movie so much at the cinema a while back was because I had no idea what it was. Had never heard of V before and it just blew me away.

    Parm, i'm totally with you! I love that movie, it was really amazing and it had like all movie genre in One movie! Amazing!!

    Remember, remember the 5th of November.
    Gunpowder, treason and plot,
    I see no reason why gunpowder, treason
    should ever be forgot...

    Hehe, I still remember it
    And I love the scene in where V presents himself and everything starts with the letter V, of course .
