V for Vendetta is my New Year's Resolution!

I have wanted to see V for Vendetta since it came out. I have yet to see it. I have seen clips of it on YouTube and it makes me want to see it more.

Anyone else have a resolution like that? Share!

I had my work desk in the living room so I could keep an eye on the TV news. I was a associate producer for a morning news show at the time. It was always what my SO called a mess. I tried to "Clean" it but could never find anything. So I went back to my version of organized.

Watch it and then read it.

It's cliche to say that the book is better, but there's a lot of depth that the film simply has no time to explore. It's still pretty effective, but it's quite different in a number of ways.

Enjoy!
