A True Masterpiece!
By A8DI0COTCMRDV on 2006-08-23
James McTeigue & the Wachowski brother's truly give us film fans something to drewl over here. "V for Vendetta" is not only more than relevant to the dark capitolist(New World Order)times we are living in right now,but it is also simply a perfect example of brilliant film making. If you watch this film & find any flaws your either a lieing non-film fan or a lieing right wing neo-con & it doesn't really matter then because your bogus opinion is irrelevant. For us true film fans though,this Two-disk Collector's Edition w/Mask & mini promo posters/goodies is what collecting films/dvd's is all about. Without a doubt the best collector's edition I have ever purchased! What an absolute treat!
Words
By A1MXX8HW7UN18E on 2007-11-04
In this day, this time, this place, this illusion that we have no control, no place, no will, no choice and no power we find the flaw in our thinking. We miss the opportunities that are placed before us to see and then do something about it. I know it's hard, that you and I wish or would rather have someone else handle what we see, what we feel creeping in and that fear grips our hearts as each day passes with the situation only getting worse. And then... what to do? Who are we to turn to, if we can't even turn to ourselves?
Vanquish that fear by action through words. Words have power behind them because they have feeling, have something that is in a sense unexplainable. Words can have a piece of us and the best parts of us if we let them flow from our hearts.
This is for me the power of this movie. Watch it and see and know that words and feeling that we put behind them is the possible power we contain. Love and creativity expressed and by their expression a chance... A chance for each of us to be a kind of a 'Vee', if we only take the chance to make an effort. And you know who doesn't want this. You know who...
A true collector's edition

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore, while I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, as of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. "'Tis some visitor," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber door, only this, and nothing more."
So I answered the door, and it was a messenger. He handed me a package, made me sign a paper, I hope I wasn't selling my soul or something (I don't have a soul to sell, it will be breach of contract and I may be sued) and he leave as fast as he arrived. So I entered my house, put the package on a coffee table, and forgot it 'till the very next day. And the very next day I remembered the package.
Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter,in there stepped a stately mask of the saintly days of yore; not the least obeisance made he; not a minute stopped or stayed he; but, with mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber door, perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my chamber door, perched, and sat, and nothing more.
It was V's mask. It is a small mask, just the appropriate size for the bust of Pallas I have in my library. So I made Pallas to wear V's mask, and then I enjoyed the movie. Apart from the mask and the movie, the package has a few mementos: four postcard sized posters of the movie, and V's symbol. The second disc includes the making of V, interviews and a lot of stuff, while the movie itself, widescreen, has three languages for audio and closed captioning (French, English and Spanish) allowing me to practice two languages and still enjoy it in my mother tongue. A nice touch. I've framed the lobby cards and they are hanging in my walls. I like them.
And V's Mask, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting on the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door; and his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming, and the lamplight o'er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor; and my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor, shall be lifted - nevermore!
My Favorite Movie
By A2ES4DB1XGE4KM on 2007-10-16
This is my favorite movie of all time. This movie basically describes everything that this country is going through right under our noses. I watch this movie once a month. Guy Fawkes day is coming up.
V FOR VENDETTA ROCKS!!!!
By A382I397N9BQTN on 2007-11-03
Remember, remember the fifth of November,
Gunpowder, treason, and plot,
I know of no reason why the gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot.
Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes, 't was his intent
To blow up the King and Parliament.
Three score barrels of powder below,
Poor old England to overthrow;
By God's providence he was catch'd
With a dark lantern and burning match.
Holloa boys, holloa boys, make the bells ring.
Holloa boys, holloa boys, God save the King!
V FOR VENDETTA ROCKS!!!!
