Can we all take a moment and appreciate the acting of Hugo Weaving in this movie? His face was never revealed yet he has impacted this movie and this character with the pure power of his lines! Amazing!
+Leticia Jaure He may have been gay in his past life for all we know but he clearly wasn't black. His burned hand was clearly a white hand, just burned. And the "soldier" that captured Evey had that same look. Not to mention in the last of Evey's days of interrogation, the silhouette of the guard at the door looked like Hugo Weaving. And lastly, we do sometimes see the underside of Hugo's chin in some scenes. So the character was probably white, if only because the actor was and you happen to sometimes catch a glimpse of it. Now I wouldn't put it past V to constantly wear tons of make-up... but it feels like that may be a bit inconvenient.
Some characters don't need a 'face' to be interesting characters. You find it more in horror movies like Jason and Michael Myers in Friday the 13th and Halloween respectively. Those characters are, themselves, more so ideas than people, as it were. Hugo Weaving didn't need to show his face because he is a great enough actor to convey the idea through body language and action. He could've been silent through the film and it still would've worked imo.
I always love that they used Rookwood for the name of this informant. Ambrose Rookwood was one of the original Gunpowder Plot planners in 1605. Nice touch.
Even more obscure, V quotes Macbeth, and in Act 3, Scene 2 Macbeth calls for night to come to hide his impending murder of Banquo. Macbeth observes that night is falling by pointing out that "the crow makes wing to the rooky wood." The alter ego, Rookwood, meets with the men who work in daylight to bring to light dark deeds, and he promises to soon help them, which lulls them into complacency. However night will soon fall, and when it does, V's truest self will deal much death. As Macbeth says in that same scene: "Good things of day begin to droop and drowse; Whiles night’s black agents to their preys do rouse."

Finch just oozes integrity. Sure he's a party member but ultimately a man who wants to do the right thing regardless of what it means for him or his party. And V basically tells him as much - for you inspector, i needed you. Great scene.
It also exposes his single-mindedness. He thinks morally, so he thinks everyone else does. Most of what he was told he could have discovered on his own.

3:02 _"But the end result, the true genius of the plan was the FEAR. Fear became the ultimate tool of this government"_ Sounds like a real-life government I know.
+Stephen Byrne The point of this scene is to show how easily entire populations can be manipulated by a small number of people. Villains don't always twirl their mustaches or operate out of volcano island lairs. Fear is a great way for a small number of people to motivate a large number of people to act against their own best interests. We can look back through history at things like the Nazis or Pol Pot and say, "nobody would be stupid enough to fall for THAT again" but the depressing fact is that you can easily convince people to give up their freedoms and their rights for the illusion of safety. It continues to happen today.
"For you, inspector. I needed you." I feel like this is one of the most important lines in the movie. Anyone, even with a meagre amount of power, can be a changes the course of 1000's of people's lives.
The inspector doesn't have a "meagre amount of power" he's literally the head of the entire police force. Your point is still valid, just not in this context.
At the same time it was also people like him who caused this issue. People merely voting for an authoritarian politican is only the first step. Having organisations that follow the command of the politicans is the second step (in opposition to having not political but societal forces that provide tools to tackle such issues).
No matter how many times i watch this movie it still gives me chills. The cruelty, the tortures, the larkhill footage, the secret behing v and his idenity, the script, the lines, the acting, the dark side of politics everything is truly impeccable about the film The whole darkness and violence and how its shot is one outstanding thing about this movie. The shot where V is standing in the fire right after the larkhill explosion on 5th of july with the doctor's narrative on backround saying ,,and he looked at me but not with his eyes, there were no eyes'' as V was standing in fire and screaming. That shot has to be one of the most frightening, hauting, chilling and well-made shots in the film industry. Either way the whole V character was incredibly well-portrayed and well-played. Hugo Weaving gave an oustanding performance. The character was so iconic...the mask, the intelligence, the vengence, the vocabulary even. What a masterpiece of a movie.
I once analyzed basically every scene in the original graphic novel and I can confidently say that the movie is way better at storytelling. My only qualm with it is that the Truther narrative it taps into was grossly irresponsible, even though it made for a great twist.
On an artistic note: I think Hugo Weaving has one of the most incredible voices and line readings ever. The man could read a phone book and I'd be fascinated. On a political note: I wish I could find the idea that a government would do that to its citizenry to be too far fetched....but history proves otherwise. Including our history.
"I needed you inspector" I feel like that was an honest answer. He wanted someone who "V" felt would be impartial and follow the bread crumbs if they were laid out. Even though v had years of work to clear the tracks, accumulate the materials for the train bomb and train himself (let alone put his "shadow gallery" together) he needed a head inspector who if the facts were presented he'd follow to the logical conclusion..... Which, well v was right. He put it all together and let happen, what needed to happen
There's a bit more to it than leading someone by the nose so they'd connect the dots left for them, his role was to be a curator for the information until such time it was safe to reveal to the world, so that ppl would know why their friends and family died, disappeared, lived in constant fear and oppression. It's a bit like how someone would imagine if the Nazis were overthrown from within by the ppl they oppressed.
It is so bizarre to me how millions of people feed off the media despite repeated proof that they lie incessantly and openly favor specific parties, groups, and agendas. Yet somehow they’re the first point of reference for a staggering number of people, and not just in America either.
Social media, 'News', 'true news', 'true social media', 'alternative media' (whatever tf that means). It's always the non-verified un-vetted shite convenient for common people to be believe to serve the rich's goals of keeping their influence. Every civilization's fall was the plan of the rich noble-line bastards. Don't be fooled into supporting either Democrats or Republicans that take a penny of big-donor money.

I loved the inspector as a character. Actually does his job, has a good moral compass and was the only one to see the actual attack on parliament coming, only to be ignored by men too arrogant to believe him. Very strong scene where he predicts the course of events that led to the shooting of the masked girl all the way up to complete uprising.
There’s always 1 whose moral compass is unclouded, who will do the right thing regardless of what it might mean and who will suffer for it. Those men are the ones to watch out for. They’ll change the world for the better
The only they got wrong was which party would be behind the bio-weapon attack and the agenda behind it. They always accuse you of what they themselves are doing.

This hits hard in America today as well. We are all but consumed with fear and totally divided against each other. Easy pickings for those pulling the strings.
This is such an underrated movie. This is more than just a film, it's an idea. Ideas are the means to meaning, and for those voracious enough, enunciation of truth.
You're right, it's an idea, but incredibly naive simplistic idea of good vs evil, freedom vs tyranny... and how it all could be cancelled if only people rose up. Just a friendly reminder, real word doesn't work like that. In that sense it's no better than ideocracy or Harry Potter.
@@somedud1140It's not good VS. evil, at least not in the movie. V himself fully admits that he is a monster, a phantom who lives for vengeance, it's just that the best way to take vengeance against a goverment is to instigate a revolution. Hell, he indirectly led for that girl with the glasses to her death, and if he didn't take care of Creedy at the right time, the soldiers would've massacred the masked crowd (probably), and let's not forget he tortured Evey. The movie never framed what V did as purely good, but rather a necessary evil the people needed to create something better, hence when he accomplished his goal he dies, the last evil of the regime dead. Could go on for longer, but I think I made my point

Just here to say, I recall watching this film in theaters as a lad and it still grips me. For all the spectacle and effects and budgets Marvel and DC are throwing on screen these days, there's something about these pre-MCU comic book films (Blade, The X-Men, V for Vendetta, 300, etc) that just feels so much more authentic to their roots. Everything is so formulated and sanitized now, they're soulless.
Because the MCU learned all the wrong lessons from these movies. Take this movie, for example. What did we learn from it? That you don't need a face to have a good character; that verbiage most verbose can make some damn compelling lines; that a sacrifice to eliminate the threat is compelling. What did Marvel learn from it? That masked characters are cool; that quippy one-liners are cool; that a sacrifice to eliminate the threat earns you redemption for your sins. I'll draw the parallel between V and Iron Man, as its the easiest. V and Iron Man are both masked badasses with great lines. The difference is this: V is consistently a well-intentioned extremist that you can't help but root for even as he commits massive acts of terrorism. He never is redeemed for the terrorism he commits, though; in fact, it ultimately winds up killing him. It's a noble sacrifice to kill a fascist pig, sure, but ultimately it's something he was going to do no matter who Creedy was personally, be he a snake or an angel. Iron Man started as a businessman selling weapons. This fucked him over and you only root for Iron Man because now he's working for the Good Guys against the Bad Guys. He's a lovable character, sure, with nice quips and whatnot, but instead of staying true to what superheroes actually are--instead of being the Ultimate Firefighter--Iron Man becomes the ultimate cop, and his redemption is to save half the world by sacrificing himself as atonement for his past sins that he's already been redeemed for a thousand times over, but Marvel can only redeem someone in death for some fucking reason.
Because Marvel IS from Disney and they want they POLITICS And they copy 1 thing from the comic ignoring the rest pick any example like Gorr the Butcher Blade Xmen Avengers EMH Spectacular Spiderman and Spiderman 80 all products of Stan Lee WRITING not some IA or mental insane writer from Disney Who hates all
"The end result, the true genius of the plan, was the FEAR." Indeed, how true it has been in real life... (He kind of hit the nail on the head with that assessment, if you ask me...)
A report by The Rebecca Project for Human Rights states that Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Pfizer, Planned Parenthood, USAID and the UN contributed to a 4 billion contraceptive campaign using the vaccine Depo-Provera (DMPA). The Guttmacher Institute states that a 2yr study of over 5,000 woman receiving injections at Planned Parenthood of Rocky Mountains reported “of the initial 5,178 women who received an initial injection, only 57% returned for a second administration. Another third dropped out after the 2nd shot. Reasons for not returning? “Difficultly tolerating side effects”. FDA labelling and/or reported in studies: “Loss of bone mineral density, may lose significant bone density” “Cardiovascular events - syncope, tachycardia, thrombophlebitis, deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolus - which can lead to cardiac arrest and stroke. Do not re administer if sudden, partial or complete loss of vision” Breast and cervical cancer - Hormone sensitive breast cancers occur twice as often in woman under 35 who have used DMPA in the previous four years. Ectopic pregnancy - increased risk of life threatening ectopic pregnancy. The Gates Foundation have given millions to PATH, who conducted large scale clinical trials in Africa and South Asia. According to Vera Sharav who is part of Alliance for Research Protection, in 2010 PATH administered the HPV vaccine was given to 23,000 girls between 10-14yrs old to guard against cervical cancers as part of a “demonstrational study”. 7 adolescent tribal girls died after receiving the vaccine. 1,200 girls experienced extreme side effects of developed auto-immense disorders, according to Indian Physicians who state no follow up examinations or medical care were offered to the victims. Further investigations revealed persuasive violations of ethical norms: vulnerable village girls were virtually press-ganged into the trials, their parents bullied into signing consent forms they couldn’t read by PATH representatives, who made false claims about safety and efficacy of the drugs. Many signatures were formed. An Indian Parliamentary Committee determined the Gates-funded vaccine campaign was in fact a large scale clinical trial conducted on behalf of the pharmaceutical firms and disguised as an “observational study” in order to outflank statutory requirements. The committee found that PATH had “violated all les and regulations laid down for trials by the government in a clear-cut violation of human rights and a case of child abuse”. www.newdemocracyworld.org/culture/gates.html m.economictimes.com/industry/healthcare/biotech/healthcare/controversial-vaccine-studies-why-is-bill-melinda-gates-foundation-under-fire-from-critics-in-india/articleshow/41280050.cms

Seems like we are living it out, all of us on earth. Only thing we need is a man like V. We got everything else.

You have to understand that if people dont move noone will ever save humanity. People need to beleive in their own power and take control of their lives.

I don't think anything in this film was a coincidence. Every bit of everything in it was planned and on purpose. Master class in film making. People are critical, because the source material is not followed perfectly. If you don't know the source material it is excellant. It stands as it's own story very well.
I honestly believe we are simply living through a rerun of previous events. It is said that life repeats itself and I do believe this has been done before. V for vendetta is not predicting the future but simply recounting the past. Of course very few of us would remember these events as most of us were not born then. And if you aren't convinced then consider how long humans have had to learn about viruses and consider how many pandemics have already happened in the last century, from ebola to swine flu to the Spanish influenza. These are likely all the results of experiments, which in fact went completely according to plan, its simply they are testing the effects of genetic manipulation and how it translates to viral effects. I believe coronavirus has almost perfected what they are looking for. Something which doesn't kill too much but spreads immensely. Because the goal isn't death but fear.
Trump? Really dude. Here's a bit of knowledge I'm going to lay down on you. Trump got censored hard. Dictators don't get censored. Dictators do the censoring. The crooks in office right now say "Antifa isn't real" or "Antifa is just an idea." They cover for them because Antifa is to them what the brown shirts were to Hitler. You want to know what else Hitler did? He bought out the media and made them spread lies about his political opponents. Here's a great example. The 6th. This is a video someone was able to capture. ruclips.net/video/FgUVdDzK4R4/видео.html Someone inside the building was handing bats out to people in black masks and goggles through a window. This isn't how Trump supporters dress. That's how Antifa dresses. And people on the inside were arming them. Wake up. You dumb asses are being lied to. Trump had his flaws, but he wasn't the bad guy. The bad guys are the politicians who've been in power for decades and laundering our tax money. They and other world leaders colluded with China and had Covid created as their tool to usher in their "Great Reset" globalist agenda.
@@igetboredproductions lol a suspended twitter account and mocking trump’s ridiculous claims and hundreds of lies does not equate censorship. I also love your unfounded claim that government officials said that antifa is not a threat when it’s listed as a domestic threat. Why you lying? If The 6th was an antifa plot then why did trump call them fans and supporters? Is trump part of antifa? That would explain his moronic behavior lol. You also claim that trump is not the bad guy and does not steal money yet he’s been backed by banks for literal decades and ripped off thousands. Was the American media biased against trump? Yes, one side was, yet republican media constantly shat on Obama when he was in office because he’s black. Again you lie and lie because the truth is inconvenient. You missed the entire point of this movie and you try to twist its message so it’s edges don’t hurt your rigid worldview of good vs evil.
@@sarcasmenul This goes beyond suspended Twitter and Facebook accounts. The media would cut his speeches off and cherry pick. Let's not forget the HCQ incident. He came out very early in and said that HCQ can be used to effectively fight covid. That speech got taken down and buried and officials insisted it was dangerous to use HCQ. It's recently started getting out that Trump was right about HCQ. And to think they spent all that time blaming Trump for the deaths when he had a cure very early in that would probably have prevented most of them had the establishment not censored it. Antifa is listed as a terror organization because Trump had them listed as one. Biden himself at the debates said "Antifa is just an idea." Kamala Harris told them not to let up and donated to their bailouts. Maxine Waters has been nothing but an Antifa bullhorn since last summer. Pelosi personally made sure that there was no security at the capitol on the 6th. There is reason to believe that she's the one giving them orders while Soros is the one who hires them. And the media didn't shit on Obama because he was black. They shat on him because he was fucking shit. His "affordable" healthcare plan was one of the reasons I grew up in a fucking hovel. A hovel that I pulled myself out of in Trump's economy. And make no mistake, I don't favor republicans any more than the dems. I've got plenty to say about war mongering Bush and Cheny, who both should have been put to the electric chair years ago. People at some point seem to have forgotten that politicians have a tendency of being corrupt. Someone who wasn't a politician stepped up and called them out on their bullshit and the whole establishment went for his throat. I side with Trump because I got results under him. I'm sick of the establishment. I'm sick of the inflations they cause on everything and their endless wars. Biden said he wants to go green by 2030, and how he wants to limit how much meat we eat by 2030. And of course liberals are too stupid to notice how convenient it is that a pipeline and the world's largest meat provider both got hacked by hired hacker groups within a month of each other.
Yes, but where it stops, in the movie, disease was used to promote a party by using fear, where in real life, governments are shaken, fragilised by the virus.

I always love that they used Rookwood for the name of this informant. Ambrose Rookwood was one of the original Gunpowder Plot planners in 1605. Nice touch.
Even more obscure, V quotes Macbeth, and in Act 3, Scene 2 Macbeth calls for night to come to hide his impending murder of Banquo. Macbeth observes that night is falling by pointing out that "the crow makes wing to the rooky wood." The alter ego, Rookwood, meets with the men who work in daylight to bring to light dark deeds, and he promises to soon help them, which lulls them into complacency. However night will soon fall, and when it does, V's truest self will deal much death. As Macbeth says in that same scene:
"Good things of day begin to droop and drowse;
Whiles night’s black agents to their preys do rouse."

What was the point of this scene?
+Stephen Byrne The point of this scene is to show how easily entire populations can be manipulated by a small number of people. Villains don't always twirl their mustaches or operate out of volcano island lairs. Fear is a great way for a small number of people to motivate a large number of people to act against their own best interests. We can look back through history at things like the Nazis or Pol Pot and say, "nobody would be stupid enough to fall for THAT again" but the depressing fact is that you can easily convince people to give up their freedoms and their rights for the illusion of safety. It continues to happen today.

"For you, inspector. I needed you."
I feel like this is one of the most important lines in the movie. Anyone, even with a meagre amount of power, can be a changes the course of 1000's of people's lives.
The inspector doesn't have a "meagre amount of power" he's literally the head of the entire police force. Your point is still valid, just not in this context.
At the same time it was also people like him who caused this issue. People merely voting for an authoritarian politican is only the first step. Having organisations that follow the command of the politicans is the second step (in opposition to having not political but societal forces that provide tools to tackle such issues).
He needed someone with a spine to stand up to the fascists.

No matter how many times i watch this movie it still gives me chills. The cruelty, the tortures, the larkhill footage, the secret behing v and his idenity, the script, the lines, the acting, the dark side of politics everything is truly impeccable about the film
The whole darkness and violence and how its shot is one outstanding thing about this movie.
The shot where V is standing in the fire right after the larkhill explosion on 5th of july with the doctor's narrative on backround saying ,,and he looked at me but not with his eyes, there were no eyes'' as V was standing in fire and screaming. That shot has to be one of the most frightening, hauting, chilling and well-made shots in the film industry.
Either way the whole V character was incredibly well-portrayed and well-played. Hugo Weaving gave an oustanding performance. The character was so iconic...the mask, the intelligence, the vengence, the vocabulary even.
What a masterpiece of a movie.

I once analyzed basically every scene in the original graphic novel and I can confidently say that the movie is way better at storytelling. My only qualm with it is that the Truther narrative it taps into was grossly irresponsible, even though it made for a great twist.

LITERALLY.
Has he done something bad? I remember him being great in the Matrix, and was good in LotR too.
understand that Hugo Weaving's voice carries this entire film
No, but he absolutely steals every scene that he's in.
"I needed you inspector" I feel like that was an honest answer. He wanted someone who "V" felt would be impartial and follow the bread crumbs if they were laid out. Even though v had years of work to clear the tracks, accumulate the materials for the train bomb and train himself (let alone put his "shadow gallery" together) he needed a head inspector who if the facts were presented he'd follow to the logical conclusion..... Which, well v was right. He put it all together and let happen, what needed to happen
There's a bit more to it than leading someone by the nose so they'd connect the dots left for them, his role was to be a curator for the information until such time it was safe to reveal to the world, so that ppl would know why their friends and family died, disappeared, lived in constant fear and oppression. It's a bit like how someone would imagine if the Nazis were overthrown from within by the ppl they oppressed.
In the book he goes to the abandoned prison camp, takes LSD and visualises everything that happened.
"Fueled by the media" is an often overlooked quote.
Not often, ALWAYS.
It is so bizarre to me how millions of people feed off the media despite repeated proof that they lie incessantly and openly favor specific parties, groups, and agendas. Yet somehow they’re the first point of reference for a staggering number of people, and not just in America either.
Social media, 'News', 'true news', 'true social media', 'alternative media' (whatever tf that means).

You mean Allen Moore did. I first read the original series when it was released back in the late '80s.
This scene hit differently in these difficult times.
I loved the inspector as a character. Actually does his job, has a good moral compass and was the only one to see the actual attack on parliament coming, only to be ignored by men too arrogant to believe him. Very strong scene where he predicts the course of events that led to the shooting of the masked girl all the way up to complete uprising.
There’s always 1 whose moral compass is unclouded, who will do the right thing regardless of what it might mean and who will suffer for it. Those men are the ones to watch out for. They’ll change the world for the better
Which is why V needed him.
This movie is pure genius. Gave me chill on my spine for being so accurate after all these years.

And Ideas are bulletproof
Not underrated anymore. It’s getting it’s notoriety now.
You're right, it's an idea, but incredibly naive simplistic idea of good vs evil, freedom vs tyranny... and how it all could be cancelled if only people rose up. Just a friendly reminder, real word doesn't work like that. In that sense it's no better than ideocracy or Harry Potter.
@@somedud1140It's not good VS. evil, at least not in the movie. V himself fully admits that he is a monster, a phantom who lives for vengeance, it's just that the best way to take vengeance against a goverment is to instigate a revolution. Hell, he indirectly led for that girl with the glasses to her death, and if he didn't take care of Creedy at the right time, the soldiers would've massacred the masked crowd (probably), and let's not forget he tortured Evey. The movie never framed what V did as purely good, but rather a necessary evil the people needed to create something better, hence when he accomplished his goal he dies, the last evil of the regime dead.

@mufodao stfu. a year until we lose all freedoms? smh
@mufodao 2020 actually
@mufodao 2020 is when V for Vendetta takes place
Just here to say, I recall watching this film in theaters as a lad and it still grips me. For all the spectacle and effects and budgets Marvel and DC are throwing on screen these days, there's something about these pre-MCU comic book films (Blade, The X-Men, V for Vendetta, 300, etc) that just feels so much more authentic to their roots. Everything is so formulated and sanitized now, they're soulless.
Because the MCU learned all the wrong lessons from these movies.
Take this movie, for example. What did we learn from it?
That you don't need a face to have a good character; that verbiage most verbose can make some damn compelling lines; that a sacrifice to eliminate the threat is compelling.
What did Marvel learn from it?
That masked characters are cool; that quippy one-liners are cool; that a sacrifice to eliminate the threat earns you redemption for your sins.
I'll draw the parallel between V and Iron Man, as its the easiest. V and Iron Man are both masked badasses with great lines. The difference is this: V is consistently a well-intentioned extremist that you can't help but root for even as he commits massive acts of terrorism. He never is redeemed for the terrorism he commits, though; in fact, it ultimately winds up killing him. It's a noble sacrifice to kill a fascist pig, sure, but ultimately it's something he was going to do no matter who Creedy was personally, be he a snake or an angel.
Iron Man started as a businessman selling weapons. This fucked him over and you only root for Iron Man because now he's working for the Good Guys against the Bad Guys. He's a lovable character, sure, with nice quips and whatnot, but instead of staying true to what superheroes actually are--instead of being the Ultimate Firefighter--Iron Man becomes the ultimate cop, and his redemption is to save half the world by sacrificing himself as atonement for his past sins that he's already been redeemed for a thousand times over, but Marvel can only redeem someone in death for some fucking reason.
Because Marvel IS from Disney and they want they POLITICS
And they copy 1 thing from the comic ignoring the rest pick any example like Gorr the Butcher
Blade Xmen Avengers EMH Spectacular Spiderman and Spiderman 80 all products of Stan Lee WRITING not some IA or mental insane writer from Disney Who hates all
"The end result, the true genius of the plan, was the FEAR."
Indeed, how true it has been in real life...
(He kind of hit the nail on the head with that assessment, if you ask me...)
A report by The Rebecca Project for Human Rights states that Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Pfizer, Planned Parenthood, USAID and the UN contributed to a 4 billion contraceptive campaign using the vaccine Depo-Provera (DMPA).
The Guttmacher Institute states that a 2yr study of over 5,000 woman receiving injections at Planned Parenthood of Rocky Mountains reported “of the initial 5,178 women who received an initial injection, only 57% returned for a second administration. Another third dropped out after the 2nd shot. Reasons for not returning? “Difficultly tolerating side effects”. FDA labelling and/or reported in studies:
“Loss of bone mineral density, may lose significant bone density”
“Cardiovascular events - syncope, tachycardia, thrombophlebitis, deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolus - which can lead to cardiac arrest and stroke. Do not re administer if sudden, partial or complete loss of vision”
Breast and cervical cancer - Hormone sensitive breast cancers occur twice as often in woman under 35 who have used DMPA in the previous four years.
Ectopic pregnancy - increased risk of life threatening ectopic pregnancy.
The Gates Foundation have given millions to PATH, who conducted large scale clinical trials in Africa and South Asia. According to Vera Sharav who is part of Alliance for Research Protection, in 2010 PATH administered the HPV vaccine was given to 23,000 girls between 10-14yrs old to guard against cervical cancers as part of a “demonstrational study”.
7 adolescent tribal girls died after receiving the vaccine. 1,200 girls experienced extreme side effects of developed auto-immense disorders, according to Indian Physicians who state no follow up examinations or medical care were offered to the victims.
Further investigations revealed persuasive violations of ethical norms: vulnerable village girls were virtually press-ganged into the trials, their parents bullied into signing consent forms they couldn’t read by PATH representatives, who made false claims about safety and efficacy of the drugs. Many signatures were formed.
An Indian Parliamentary Committee determined the Gates-funded vaccine campaign was in fact a large scale clinical trial conducted on behalf of the pharmaceutical firms and disguised as an “observational study” in order to outflank statutory requirements. The committee found that PATH had “violated all les and regulations laid down for trials by the government in a clear-cut violation of human rights and a case of child abuse”.

How do you feel now after "15 days to slow the spread".
I honestly believe we are simply living through a rerun of previous events. It is said that life repeats itself and I do believe this has been done before. V for vendetta is not predicting the future but simply recounting the past. Of course very few of us would remember these events as most of us were not born then. And if you aren't convinced then consider how long humans have had to learn about viruses and consider how many pandemics have already happened in the last century, from ebola to swine flu to the Spanish influenza. These are likely all the results of experiments, which in fact went completely according to plan, its simply they are testing the effects of genetic manipulation and how it translates to viral effects. I believe coronavirus has almost perfected what they are looking for. Something which doesn't kill too much but spreads immensely. Because the goal isn't death but fear.

@@igetboredproductions lol a suspended twitter account and mocking trump’s ridiculous claims and hundreds of lies does not equate censorship. I also love your unfounded claim that government officials said that antifa is not a threat when it’s listed as a domestic threat. Why you lying?

You also claim that trump is not the bad guy and does not steal money yet he’s been backed by banks for literal decades and ripped off thousands. Was the American media biased against trump? Yes, one side was, yet republican media constantly shat on Obama when he was in office because he’s black. Again you lie and lie because the truth is inconvenient. You missed the entire point of this movie and you try to twist its message so it’s edges don’t hurt your rigid worldview of good vs evil.
@@sarcasmenul This goes beyond suspended Twitter and Facebook accounts. The media would cut his speeches off and cherry pick. Let's not forget the HCQ incident. He came out very early in and said that HCQ can be used to effectively fight covid. That speech got taken down and buried and officials insisted it was dangerous to use HCQ. It's recently started getting out that Trump was right about HCQ. And to think they spent all that time blaming Trump for the deaths when he had a cure very early in that would probably have prevented most of them had the establishment not censored it.
Antifa is listed as a terror organization because Trump had them listed as one. Biden himself at the debates said "Antifa is just an idea." Kamala Harris told them not to let up and donated to their bailouts. Maxine Waters has been nothing but an Antifa bullhorn since last summer.
Pelosi personally made sure that there was no security at the capitol on the 6th. There is reason to believe that she's the one giving them orders while Soros is the one who hires them.
And the media didn't shit on Obama because he was black. They shat on him because he was fucking shit. His "affordable" healthcare plan was one of the reasons I grew up in a fucking hovel. A hovel that I pulled myself out of in Trump's economy. And make no mistake, I don't favor republicans any more than the dems. I've got plenty to say about war mongering Bush and Cheny, who both should have been put to the electric chair years ago.
People at some point seem to have forgotten that politicians have a tendency of being corrupt. Someone who wasn't a politician stepped up and called them out on their bullshit and the whole establishment went for his throat. I side with Trump because I got results under him.
I'm sick of the establishment. I'm sick of the inflations they cause on everything and their endless wars. Biden said he wants to go green by 2030, and how he wants to limit how much meat we eat by 2030. And of course liberals are too stupid to notice how convenient it is that a pipeline and the world's largest meat provider both got hacked by hired hacker groups within a month of each other.

+windi1982 He's really good with accents too. That's the best "Soft Northern" accent I have seen a non-British actor do in a film.
need to watch this again
This is an accurate depiction of the reality we're living in.
No it's not.
@@adamquirke6024 Because you're just too dumb to see it.
@@adamquirke6024 If they could convince you that dystopia only exists on TV, history books and novels- then they can easily impose one onto you in plain sight, and you even won't realize it.
@@jmwoods190 no they won’t. Because they do it in fictional books doesn’t mean it must be in reality
@@adamquirke6024yeah it’s real except it’s controlled by corporations, Wall Street, big pharma, military industrial complex and their mouthpieces (all politicians) - they give the illusion of choice but there really isn’t any. It’s total corporate hegemony and if Raytheon, Pfizer, etc want you gone they’ll do it.
This movie is so underrated and timeless still amazing to this day i use to think this movie was so cool still is 😅
The scary part is this movie took place in 2020....
"Remember Remember the fifth of November, the gunpowder treason and plot. I know of no reason why the Gunpowder Treason should ever be forgot"
That's tomorrow!
WE ARE LIVING THIS NOW...
One of my most favourite films
" No such thing as coincidences,only the illusion of coincidences"...V
In 2021 this scene really hurts.
Something that I don't think is mentioned enough about this scene is the score. The almost understated melody, the tension, the vague accompanying noise to the terror which may or may not be true.
To put it into musical terms, the 'resolutions' of the harmony are fairly obvious given some thought.
And to me, that intentionally matches the scene. "Give this some thought"
God I love this film
Klaus Schwab *taking notes*
Ja, this is a good plan!
1984 + V + What just happened = One hell of a coincidence
The only difference is the one is far-left totalitarian while the other one is Far-Right
the *'9/11' ALLEGORY*
How else would Bush attack Iraq? Wmd's my arse
9/11 Allegory...so true..!!! It's creepy.!
First came the Patriot Act, now comes time for the Patriots to Act
@@coldblowcode Erm, the tombs of the Nephilim.......?
the Ryazan sugar allegory
I love that he looks kind of like Alan Moore. The man that wrote V for Vendetta.
It's a story always relevant in times of fear we give up our freedom
Damn it all......now I need to wipe the dust off this one and play it again. Thanks for the upload.
Watching this in January 21. Jesus Christ.
A movie from 2006 based on a book from 1989 somehow predicted 2020.
I honestly believe we are simply living through a rerun of previous events. It is said that life repeats itself and I do believe this has been done before. V for vendetta is not predicting the future but simply recounting the past. Of course very few of us would remember these events as most of us were not born then. And if you aren't convinced then consider how long humans have had to learn about viruses and consider how many pandemics have already happened in the last century, from ebola to swine flu to the Spanish influenza. These are likely all the results of experiments, which in fact went completely according to plan, its simply they are testing the effects of genetic manipulation and how it translates to viral effects. I believe coronavirus has almost perfected what they are looking for. Something which doesn't kill too much but spreads immensely. Because the goal isn't death but fear.
@@PaulGoux read the Bible my friend. God prophesied all of these things, Jesus is coming back.
@@chrismarple Yes but no
*2005
@@goob1136 hey goober.. its in THE GOOD BOOK.. the Bible.. a 2000 year old book.. the guy just told you, and most christians will tell you the same.. do you think they make this up?..
Its in the damn book.. maybe you should take a look.
A movie ahead of it's time.
In retrospect, watching this now I can say with conviction that I am literally terrified
It’s like Alan Moore was able to see what was going to come in the future
Of course he does. He's an anarchist. Nobody understands authoritarianism more than people who despise it with every inch of their body.
It's always been like this like it is now, two years after your comment. There always is someone tightening the screws and looking for to profit from it. World is always led by bunch of assholes, which we are supposed to look up to. There always is something after us and they always come out with an aid or cure or stupid catch phrase. There always is some sort of reason to monitor us closer and eventually situations like in V will become neolithic memory due to society being run by an mechanism, actual autonomous algorithm.
Back in 1980s when Moore authored the comic, cold war was on and started to get new directions from technology based surveillance. AIDS came out from nowehere and started to spread horror. Nothing seems to have changed and things are like they were before that too.
The only thing changing is the way how people react to the current status quo, which is exactly what Moore made V to try to do.
I don't know why, but I really like the way he says "Oh, I'm sure you would"
You were not the only one.
I must watch this movie again. 👍
Along comes a Spider!!
For all the people making this about republican vs. democrat...conservative vs. liberal....right vs. left.
You are asleep...wake up.
they're all the same
Amen.
Damn, you're good. After all, who could tell the difference anymore?
Spencer Kelly - You'd better tell Alan Moore (you know, the man that created fucking V for Vendetta) about that, because the original comic flat out has an open anti-right message. In fact he was pissed at how neutral the movie was on the subject
Spencer Kelly liberals are not left-wing
it's crazy how much closer we are to this fictional reality here in 2022, when the movie came out in 2005
No we're not you fucking muppet. Literally the best time to be alive, just stop being an internet rat that's stuck on a diet of shit infested fear.
I adore this film the more I see it.
Power, greed and fanatical patriotisim. "Patriotism is the virtue of the vicious" - Oscar Wilde
wasn't it by Samuel Johnson ?
Oscar Wilde was found guilty of having sex with trafficked children, that's why he went to jail. Give us a quote by Jeffrey Epstein next
The sheer genius of this moment cannot ever be overstated.
You know Weaving is a great actor when you don't once think of Agent Smith, his most famous and iconic role, during this.
No, especially not when he says “you”.
TIL that Agent Smith was V....
Its elrond for me
They tried to warn us
THEY always do....They have to!
Everyday this film gets closer to reality
This was a warning not a movie. We need to rise up now before we are entrapped. Rise up stand up for your right
The fact that this movie was set in 2020 of all years😱
What a performance by Hugo
its terryfing to see this fiction turning into reality
Worse than V+1984--- please REMEMBER ... ...... ... In 1986, Communist share Ukraine Chernobyl radiation to everyone. In 2019, sharing covid19 to everyone. Watch and share this 1 minute REAL video and you know what is REAL evil: ruclips.net/video/kKVbwuoS16Y/видео.html
What reality is this?
Except it didn't at all. A pandemic hit, restrictions happened, vaccines & treatments arrived, restrictions were lifted. And if anything politicians who were guided by the scientific advice instead of populism fared a lot better than those who didn't.
@@drxym Thanks for being sensible, this whole comments section is hilariously dumb.
@@drxym Really nice to see a comment like this from time to time to remind one that not everyone in the world has gone down the conspiracy rabbit hole for their own self-aggrandizement.
