I usually don’t do anything about V for Vendetta until November the fifth (because I’m dramatic), but this is such a meaningful post, especially with how the world is at the moment. I love this film to pieces, and every year it becomes more relevant in my mind.
I hate that V’s mask is considered ‘edgy’ and is associated with horrible macho dicks on the internet instead of the revolutionary ideology the film suggests.
seeing all the 14-17 y/o queer kids who don’t know what v for vendetta is…. u mean the blockbuster film written by two trans women about a masked vigilante who decides to singlehandedly take down a fascist alternate version of england set in the distant year of 2020… and his driving force was getting justice for a lesbian who he never met but whose diary he found, who was separated from her wife before being killed by said fascist gov…. and it stars natalie portman…. okay
"The domino scene, where V tips over black and red dominoes to form a giant letter V, involved 22,000 dominoes. It took four professional domino assemblers 200 hours to set it up." V For Vendetta (2005) dir. James McTeigue

The Fifth of November, 1955
Remember, remember the Fifth of November, The scientist hanging a clock, Who knew on that date, That fortune and fate, Would reveal so much more to the Doc. Doc Brown, Doc Brown, he did invent Such objects of folly, with good intent, He tumbled and fell in his lavatory But soon after took to his lab'ratory For though he'd been woefully injur'ed A vision unfurled in his bruis'ed head Great Scott! Great Scott! From this disaster Great Scott! Great Scott! The Flux Capac'tor! And what did he do with it? Build it!

“Remember, remember, the 5th of November the Gunpowder treason and plot. I see no reason why the Gunpowder treason should ever be forgot.”
