Imagine if it was a Pennyworth sequel

>>151220267
No.

Why was the internet obsessed with the Guy Fawkes mask in the 2000s?

>>151220357
Partly for the movie, partly for memes started here.

>>151220116 (OP)
I can't wait to see them turn it into a Trump criticism that takes more inspiration from the McTeigue movie than the comic. At a bare minimum they need to set it in London.

>>151220116 (OP)
Seriously why does DC gotta keep recycling Moore shit? Don't they have anything else?

pozzed/10 how much is it gonna be?

>>151221581
>>151220116 (OP)
you niggas haven't read the book, have you?

It'll probably be stretched out way longer than it needs to be and still omit This Vicious Cabaret.

I miss when 4chan was known for trying to take down scientology instead of nazi central.

>>151221607
Ah I remember the "V is a transman" discourse from the early 2000's.

>>151221607
yeah, i remember when V was pistol whipping chuds.

>>151220357
the world was a different place, in record time governments went from being dumbasses to full authoritarian terrorist obsessed fucks, people started feeling like the governments were oppressing them by constantly spying on them and putting you at the center of the worst case scenario every single time. now people are just used to it and the fear died.

>>151221637
>take down Scientology
You mean be a small nuisance.

I never got the gripe channers had with Scientology anyway. It’s not a sex cult or a death cult. They’re a financially motivated group of elitist, no difference from Judaism really.

>>151221702
Anon people welcomed tyranny in the form of covid lockdowns. The funny thing is that V for Vendetta got the scenario right but the political parties wrong. The conservatives weren't backing pharma drugs to be forced into you while forcing you inside to avoid a minor cold, the liberals did.

>>151221668
No, lil zoom-zoom, I'm talking about the book being about a fascist regime, that killed all the gays and the blacks and all the immigrants, collapsing.

>>151221735
Another fine piece of pro-white, trad literature by Alan Moore.

>>151221730
The tories enforced the lockdown in the UK

>>151221760
shhh no facts.

>>151221735
yes anon I know that too, just saying that on top of that I remember there being a theory about V being a lesbian who was experimented on even before the movie came out and made the comic more mainstream.

>>151221681
Well yeah, that's the character in a nutshell

>>151220317
wat.
london got nuked in the dc universe and alfred saw it?

>>151220116 (OP)
Just the other day i was re-reading it an though how odd it was they hadn't given the movie is somewhat popular.
Anyway, while i think a good series could be made out of the source material i'm sure they will butcher it, and add a bunch of pointless plotlines to pad out the runtime and kill the pacing.

>>151222187
>given the movie is somewhat popular.
because its literally becoming a step by step for britain and you cant actually point that out.
the comic is abit different in its political terms but the movie is very close to britain post 2000
i should know, i live here.

>>151221751
Finch had jungle fever. What's wrong with that?

>>151220116 (OP)
V will become a homo, evee will be a Paki. It will be morphed in to an orange man bad analogy propaganda vehicle. DOA

>>151221735
>>151221751
I know i've always hated the movie for being incredibly boring, trite and completely up it's own ass but I had no idea the actual book was this pathetic.

>>151221735
>Did you read the comics
No, I was never into that stupid shit
>Why didn't you read the comics???
Sounds like the same stupid masturbatory anti system I'm the main protagonist of the world bullshit I have been avoiding all my life
>Why are you in this thread then?
I can see the future, this tv show is going to be a mess and I enjoy laughing at messes

>>151222370
You're pro-system? Why? They don't care about you.

>>151222411
Some systems do care about you and they need to be protected because they create better societies.

>>151222411
He’s not the one defending a corpo IP.

>>151220116 (OP)
The new IT tv show is really good. This could be too.

>>151222287
>V will become a homo
Isn't that quite likely the case in the original comic?

>>151222437
No system cares about you.
>>151222469
He seems to be sticking up for the system, which is way worse.

>>151221735
desu he wrote it at the time where thatcherism was at its peak and there were legit attempts at suppressing anything gay with section 28 of the 1988 act, so moore extrapolated from there

>>151222590
>No system cares about you
Imagine thinking family doesn't care about you
>Family isn't a system
It quite literally is.

>>151222293
The book is a mess. Even Moore said he didn't liked the final result and that he didn't knew where to go in some places, and you can see.

>>151222535
It's complicated, like I said Moore was lost so V is sometimes a gay man, than maybe a woman, than he becomes an idea. That's another point where Moore can't make up his mind so he just says "the real V was the drugs we took along the way" and that's it.

>>151222674
>Family isn't a system
Correct.

>>151222842
>The book is a mess.
In what way?

>>151221735
>>151221751
Meanwhile in reality niggers are the ones murdering people.

Weird how it's nit a system when it can be torn apart

Haven’t read Promethea, Top Ten, Halo Jones, or Lost Girls

Hopefully nobody sends Moore a stupid letter again

>>151223126
They are just the pawns.

>>151221327
Why would they need to go abroad when their own labour party makes 1984 look like a children's nursery rhyme

>>151220357
It was the Joker of its time.

OH SHIT PETE JACKSON?!

Oh no

Wow. That's really going to fucking suck

>>151221702
>in record time governments went from being dumbasses to full authoritarian
They were always both, ever since they planted their own flag on a new continent and declared themselves "free." But at least we don't live under those evil, dirty, tyrannical Kings anymore, right? Now our alleged Leaders are chosen every so-many years by the fickle will of the easily-led masses who couldn't find their own hometown on a map...

>>151224307
Because the narrative is USA le fascists, Europe are the hyper liberal utopian globohomos

Just a future astronaut down on his luck.

>>151221735
The irony is the inverse of this of a open society has completely cooked the West, especially Europe who's guilt tripped into submission cus "muh colonialism". Same with the lgbtq cult. Then you have the lgbtq cult doing defense work for a religious group that fundamentally hates them far more than the Christians right behind their backs. These ideas and policies didn't improve things, it rapidly degraded them. Europe before these ideas were implemented, Europe was the safest and most peaceful place on Earth with the highest living standards in the world before mass immigration and Euro-flavored-wokism (from the US) took over. Now most Euro cities look like fuckin middle eastern bazaars. But, if you point these truths out, you're a fuckin fascist, much like Moore's retarded take. Lol, that's not even taking into account a WWII vet in Britain said the sacrifice of beating the Nazis wasn't worth it when it's illegal to fly your own country's flag.

>>151223126
jeet

>>151221730
Tyranny is the natural order.

The world's changed too much for it to work. There's an atmosphere to 80s British works that was gone by the 2000s, you see it in Threads, The Wall and the VfV comic. They couldn't mimic it with the first movie, they definitely can't mimic it now.

>>151227602
Migrants should assimilate while maintaining their own traditions as much as possible; a compromise.
But humans tend towards extremes.

>>151227638
Lmao, LOL! Yeah, that's not gonna happen anymore, the only time they assimilated was when they were forced too, and usually at a cultural humiliation level. They're encouraged not to. On top of that, a lot of previous migrants historically came from adjacent cultures and ethnic backgrounds. Also, the better question being, why don't the migrants migrate to a country next door that they have a far closer root heritage to than half way across the world? Then that host country needs to change for them and not the other way around. It's really suicide by extremist liberalism.

>>151227399
but most of europe has a right wing government

Not /pol/ here but TDS is real and americans love to take things they like, sure the comic is british but the movie is american, they did the same for Watchmen.

>>151220116 (OP)
Thats a good question. A series? I can see that there is enough to make a 6 episode. But a 8 or 9 episodes? Less alone a 2 or more season series?

>>151228679

Name five European nations with an active Monarchy.
