There are some books/movies that it seems impossible to read/watch certain parts without hitting up Mr. Wiki (hee, that sounds dirty) to explain it. The movie's plot gets pretty convoluted, but there aren't nearly as many characters to keep track of. And I don't really know anything about Moore. I do agree with you about his possible motives for saying those things.
It's hard to judge the book and movie separately. You may have already read this, but it gives a pretty fair comparison, I think.
DAMMIT! I'm so mad at myself for giving away my copy. When we were getting ready to move, we got rid of a lot of things and V ended up in the library box because I hadn't watched it in years; basically because I knew I'd be watching it by myself and I usually avoid movies like that. I really wish I would have hung onto it. Well, you'll see it. You'll get to hear Natalie Portman's iffy accent and see Hugo Weaving's occasional (kind of adorable) over-acting. Not that he isn't really good, it's just, sometimes he might let his enjoyment get in the way a little?
It's seriously trippy? I didn't know Howl was like that. I mean, I'm glad the sexxin's were hot, as the clip kind of showed, but... I just found the clip again on the Tubes and there was this other clip I didn't click on, but its picture was this cartoony still with a red background and black hands. That probably wasn't the trippiest part, but it still catches you by surprise. That's like when Alex and I watched all of Kill Bill Volume 1 for the first time. There's a scene in it that's beautifully animated, but is so disturbing, I sometimes want to cry when I think about it.
*awkward cough* Anyway, YES! You are absolutely welcome. I hope we get to see it in our swingin' pad, too. Is it sick I'm already looking at stuff for the kitchen?
There's a lot of animation in the movie. For realz.
Damn, you've now made me want to see Kill Bill.
I have kitchen shit already? Left over from the brief halcyon time I lived alone? Goddamn, that's been in storage for-- well, too long. I hope to fuck none of the ceramics broke. :^( We're talking gorgeous Pier 1 finery here.
It's a pretty good movie. I don't really know what your tolerance level for violence and gore is, but it's definitely got its share. Strangely, the sequel has a lot less. And maybe the animated scene wouldn't bother me so much if a child wasn't a witness to the violence (involving her parents).
That sounds so cool! I hope the crockery is okay, too. I knew you already had stuff--I just go on Amazon a lot when I'm excited:P
