He's so right, when's the last time you heard a Led Zeppelin song on the radio? I mean, who are those guys anyway?

Those B Sides are great, there are enough that the Kink Kronicles is essential listening and there are enough good ones left over to make for great bonus tracks on the remastered albums themselves… I consistently listen to the bonus tracks on the albums from their klassic period, whereas most other bands' I only…

Yes, that is a good analysis of V and a very apt summary of the problems with the Watchmen adaptation.
… Alan Moore sure does know how to craft an ending, doesn't he? One of his major strengths as a writer of comics is the way he can keep the big picture in mind in even the most intimate moments in his books…

I apply the same distinction to Naked Lunch book versus Naked Lunch the movie; they tell very different stories with sometimes similar themes and they seem to inhabit the same world represented differently.

That is a good list of actors, I think Rupert Graves is in it too and he's a reliably good presence in the things I've seen him in…

I should also be clear that I am not trying to criticize a movie I haven't actually seen, I was mostly just responding to the way the ending was described above. I'm sure in the actual movie it works better than reading a description of it, as is true of just about any movie… I mostly just wanted an excuse to talk…

True, dystopian fiction isn't know for wielding a subtle hammer… And granted V for Vendetta is not Moore's best or most nuanced book anyway (well, some people probably think it's his best, I prefer his run on Swamp Thing and the bat-shit-insanity of From Hell), but even if its political message is perhaps obvious, it…

Wow, I love Alan Moore's V for Vendetta and I have avoided the movie because, well, I love Alan Moore's V for Vendetta. So hearing what they did to the ending shouldn't surprise me, but, honestly, that sounds more dreadful and ham-fisted than I expected. Fists of ham I say!
