Finally got to watch V is for Vendetta. Alan Moore might sneer at the movie, but I can think of one good reason why one should watch it: Hugo Weaving's voice if nothing else.
I know I made fun of how Elrond sounded too much like Agent Smith in the third LotR movie, but seriously, how many different speech patterns does this man have? I can go on about the way he enunciate his words, the crisp staccato or his sharp 't's and 'd's. The question is, why bother when I can upload clips instead?
Hardly CD quality, the speech V gives upon meeting Evey is split into three. They are recorded through the speakers with a headset's microphone. However, I'm sure you'll get the point.
3 clips make one fangirl.
Evey: Who are you?
V. : Who? Who is but the form following the function of what and what I am is a man in a mask.
Evey: Well, I can see that.
V. : Of course you can, I'm not questioning your powers of observation, I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is.
Evey: Oh, right.
V. : But on this most auspicious of nights, permit me then, in lieu of the more commonplace soubriquet, to suggest the character of this dramatis persona.
Voila!!! In view a humble Vortivilian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the Visistudes of fate...This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, too vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone 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 honour to meet you and you may call me V..
Evey: Are you like a crazy person?
V. : I’m quite sure they will say so. But to whom might I ask am I speaking?
Evey: I'm Evey.
V. : Evey? Eee. Vee. Of course, you are.
Evey: What does that mean?
V. : It means I, like God, do not play with dice and do not believe in Coincidence.
*LATER
Oh yes. And we caught PotC: DMC yesterday as well. All I can say is...
WHERE'S THE THUMP-THUMP?! BONLICKY? NO? EUNKY! SNIP SNIP!
GREAT CIRCLE OF UST? ALLOOOOO BEASTIE~
Also. NEW NORRI = MANY FANGIRL DEATHS
