leia131Ok, if you don't do anything else in the next few weeks, GO SEE V for Vendetta!!!!!!
Oh my God, it was amazing. I drove out to Westway with Renee and Erin to see it. GAH.
I love Natalie Portman. I always have. She's beautiful and she's an amazing actress and, as I told Erin, I'd do her. With or without her hair.
Also, I don't know how intentional it was, as this story is based on a graphic novel, but this movie (attacked is a bit of a strong word, but I'm going to use it anyways) attacked restrictions of freedom, corrupt priests, and taking away rights "for your protection," specifically from terrorists and viruses. They even showed a news clip about Avian flu. And they were definately supporting homosexuals and freedom of speech. So how many anti-Bush/republican sentiments have we got there?
"We have to do raids and beat and torture people, with the majority's consent, so that we can keep you safe from terrorists" sounds an awful lot to me like "we have to do wire taps and beat and torture people when we interrogate them to keep you safe from the terrorists." But maybe that's just me.
I loved it. I'm not even that into politics, but I loved every second of it.
And one guy's name was Rookwood. /Random Harry Potter reference.
Then I went to Erin's for cake and fun with Tiffany and Ross. Erin, your family always has been, is, and always will be, awesome.
"A revolution without dancing is a revolution not worth having."
"All you have are your little knives. We have guns."
"No, what you have are bullets, and the hope that when your guns are empty I will no longer be standing."
It was SO GOOD. Like 1984 meets Robin Hood meets Phantom of the Opera.
On which note, he 1.wore a mask 2.took the girl to his underground lair of crazy, which was full of stolen art and furniture 3.was sort of obsessed with music there 4.was disfigured 5.was an outcast from society 6.murdered people 7.broke mirrors and 8.wouldn't let the girl he loved take his mask off.
There were more, but I'm too lazy to list them now.

I agreed with all that; and the first time I saw it (I've watched it about three times now, XD) I was totally like "ROOKWOOD = HP"
