It's Movie Time!!!

We're going to watch V for Vendetta in the H.S. Library after school on Friday, January 26th! Bring food and drinks to share as well as the book! Also bring your coat or a blanket...it can get cold in here!

Stop in by this Friday to pick up your movie permission form.

V is awesome!

Happy New Year, everyone!
Read a lot of V yesterday and it reminds me in many ways of Phantom of the Opera. These are the similarities I've seen: V and the Phantom are alike because they both hide behind masks, they're a mix of genius and insane, and they "orchestrate" situations that effect many people, often very violently. Like Christine in Phantom, Evey is the lost child looking for a father figure. Also like Christine, Evey is manipulated by V (the Phantom), even though he appears to care for her.

I saw the movie before I read this book and noticed the similarities during the movie. Once I finish the book, I want to see the movie again!
