desperation.

went to watch v for vendetta today..see i told you all it was so good. watched it with clare jems junwee and mango, whom we forced along by telling him that we'd stuff his water bottle somewhere in ERO lingerie in j8 and giving his name and ic number to the salesgirl to report to the police when he rummaged through all the bras and g-strings and whatever-you-have inside a lingerie shop to find a lime-green bottle.
anyway, clare and i, having known the story, decided to watch it again cos it was too difficult to catch the full story the first time, so we tagged along with jems and junwee. and i spent like 17.50 on this movie alone, the first time was like the last post. and i spent 9.50 on that day.

the next part will be blanked out for fear of spoilers AGAIN.

finally i understand the significance of the huge number of people flooding the square in front of the parliament house. it was rather weird for me when i realised that all the people whom were purportedly killed off already like dr diana stanton, valerie and her girlfren,and the girl who goes bollocks everytime the news is broadcasted on television. thanks to clare and mango tho, whom i really didn't know had so much common sense until today (=X). and as for the reason, i think it's vintage wachowski brothers to end the film like this. as in the end of matrix revolutions, suddenly there was this new day and the oracle was talking to a girl. actually, up till now i have absolutely no idea what the scene was trying to portray. perhaps i should watch matrix again. anyway. the point that they were trying to put across is that "ideas have no feelings, they cannot feel pain." and unlike people," ideas do not fail." so the masked people represented the ideals of truth, freedom and transparency which will never die and will keep on living on. it's as though although the corporeal body is dead, but the spiritual remnants of the soul will linger on and remain in the material world.
and i realised that gordon is gay. if not he wouldn't have said the words he used in the movie, when evey (looking like some slut from charlie's angels..remember drew barrymore and cameron diaz in that campy looking skirt which smacked of girls-who-don't-grow-up?) appeared at his doorstep. actually i was quite amused at gordon's derring-do cos in such a society, conformity sadly happens to be the in thing and the government doesn't think much of people who make fun of them. although it was really rather irreverent to show sutler getting shot. (cue the champagne glass sutler was holding shattering). and i have to agree that it makes for good tv ratings cos i sure as hell would have watched a tv channel which dares to make fun of the government. and judging from the peoples' reaction, i guess they did too.
anyway. i really appreciated the scene when V goes to kill dr diana stanton.
as in. when she realised that he was in her room, she knew it was inevitable. and on second thoughts, i guess she was relieved that she could be free from her torment of what she did at larkhill. and it's such a thoughtprovoking scene because:
1) it makes you think about whether it is right to exact individual judgement on another person's sins,
2) should we be judged on what we have hoped to accomplish or what we did accomplish?
3) " the ghost of christmas past" will always catch up despite how well you hide.
after watching the movie a second time, my favourite scene is when she asks if it's too late to apologise. and V's answer is that "it is never too late to apologise."

anyway. i should stop gushing about it.=X
