Thanks. You've read the comic of "V for Vendetta", no doubt?

Ah. In many ways, it's better than the film, but I can't see why Alan Moore is pissing and moaning about the film. The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, yes, I can understand.

Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a bygone vexation stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V.

Your awesome Quatermass.

Oh yeah, the flim did suck. I can only hope The Watchmen is better.

The film of "V" didn't suck. But I love your recital of V's introduction. In fact, recently, I read a screenplay of "V for Vendetta" that was present at my Uni's library and had annotations, to clarify the meanings of some words and phrases.

I've almost memorised this as well. The only part I can't recite is the highlighted part. It's too much of a tongue twister :D

Imagine how Hugo Weaving felt having to memorise it!
