Well folks looks like we are gonna be waiting a few more months for V for Vendetta. It turns out that a spokesperson for for Warner Brothers said that they still wanted to make some final edits, and touch-ups for the final cut of the movie. Though the movie does deal with a form of terrorism in a fascist ruled London, the spokes person said that the delay has nothing to do with the "current political climate". The movie has come under some discussion, as the main character, and protagonist is the one committing the acts of terror. In my opinion, while the bombings in the story do kill people they are all fascists and evil(as they are portrayed in a similar style to Hitler and the Nazi's). This movie will be great, and it will make money, but why the delay.
What is V for Vendetta...
It started as a graphic novel created by Alan Moore and David Lloyd. It was released sometime in the 80's and set in 1997. Apparently WW3 has happened, and nukes where launched everywhere. London is still around, but now it has been taken over by a group of fascists called Noresfire. Over time they have set up cameras and the government has all become a big brother type thing. They do plenty of tests on groups of minorities in concentration camps. Among them, as we find out is a man who we only know as Codename V. In the book you never see his face, and he is very mysterious(talks in rhymes, has no past). He (in a way I will not describe due to spoilers) realizes that he needs to rise up against the government. He escapes, goes to London and starts on his crusade against the government. He later recruits a girl named Eve Hammond, she has no where to go in her life and he ends up rescuing her from some the fascists in a dark London alley. She joins him and they end up working together. The book was incredible, I have read it many times, and from what I saw in the Preview I know I will not be disappointed from the movie. But it looks like we will all have to wait for "Q1 2006". Until then there is all ways the preview, and that will have to do.
The movie is being produce by Joal Silver, and its under Silver Pictures. The Wackaoski brothers are directing and leading the creative aspect of it. It stars Hugo Waeving as V(aslo in the Matrix as Agent Smith) and Nataile Portman as Eve(also from Star Wars). For more information on the movie check the main site.
