Sounds very cyberpunk.
Are you anti-privatization? |

Too simplistic of a question. Privatization can be good or bad, depending on what we are talking about. |

| V shows a world that has been taken over by Progressivism.
It shows a government out of control, that feels the need to protect everyone from themselves, as the movie states "we need to remind them of WHY THEY NEED US (Government)".
It is about stopping Progressivism and the rise of the individual. _________________  |

| Clearly you have not read the comic Ash. The author of the graphic novel disavowed the movie precisely because the movie turned his story into a liberal fantasy. If you had read the graphic novel, you'd know that it was a celebration of the destruction of the government and of the rise of anarchy. Hardly something you'd identify with, seeing as how have established yourself as a very heavy statist. _________________ | Quote: | [12:45:11] olias : Cazz  [12:45:28] olias : this place is gonna suck without you so I am just doing that one last time [12:45:31] olias : RIP |

I'm not identifying with V, I'm identifying with the society portrayed in the movie. |

The movie bears only a superficial resemblance to the book.
And Mystery, I agree._________________ | Quote: | [12:45:11] olias : Cazz  [12:45:28] olias : this place is gonna suck without you so I am just doing that one last time [12:45:31] olias : RIP |

| I still give Agent Smith or Lionel (Little Fish) as his best role. In any case, I agree with Lord V. |
