Nose hair moustaches are gross.
Watched it in GB3 and later on went on a Marvel Oversized Hardcover buying spree at a sale in Powerbooks. ANYway... - On-screen oral alliteration is annoying.
- Poor Evey (Natalie Portman) is just f@#ked up, figuratively and literally, in this movie.
- Maybe it's just me and my having watched and listened to many British comedies like The Office or Extras, but the dialogue sounded... wrong. Yeah, it was written by Americans and the lead actress was one as well, but it was as if they couldn't sell the lines. Is this is what Wachowski brother/sisters(?) think Brits sound like when they talk, or was the script meant for American characters but read/spoken by Brits?
- Brits do not say bollocks all the time. Maybe it's a PG thing. They could've thrown in an occasional bugger in there.
- This scene was not in the movie. Don't ask me why:

- So many scenes in this film were reminiscent of other flicks: Return of the Jedi, Phantom of the Opera (for obvious reasons), Fight Club, Darkman, The Truman Show and -- if that deleted scene above was included-- American Beauty. Nice to know the director kept his Storyboarding for Dummies Guide handy.
- John Hurt is one pruny-faced man, and you can tell because he's on Jumbotron for the most part in the movie, barking orders and looking pruny.
- What's with totalitarian regimes in the movies and black attire? (In the future there will be order and we must look slimming!) Also, nice touch with their double-crucifix symbol. Seems Christianity is supposed to be scary/ier when done twice. Remember: Utopian Future = silver suits, while Totalitarian Future = black suits.
- If nothing else, the movie got me in the right frame of mind to finally read (and possibly appreciate) the original graphic novel version.
- Wait for the DVD.
