42 “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. 43 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. 44 So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.

@@YesItsAimbot bible says that he is a dark skin man with white wooly hair and yes it matters.
@@DeadPiixxel HUH???
@YesItsAimbot Revelation 1:14-16
King James Version
14 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
@YesItsAimbot he is not that white guy with long straight hair and blue eyes that image deceive the whole world When the bible tells us what he looks like and the world ignores it and make him white anyway.
21:20 She's reborn in Water, He's reborn in Fire.
CB, If you haven't read _1984,_ please do so to see how much this film owes to it. It was published in 1949 and less than a year later, the author, George Orwell / Eric Blair, died at 46 of complications of lung infection, after a several-month hospital stay. In the 1960s, 70s, and 80s, his novel was required reading at school here in the U.S. It remains very well-known in the UK, and i assume is still required in grade school over there, despite its failure to keep both sides of a bipolar world from sliding into the darkness and insanity it foretold. ✌🏼
Big brother is watching
"It's so on the nose..."
Remember the graphic novel on which the film is based was written way back in the 1980s. It isn't so much "on the nose" as prophetic!
To be fair, there was much changed (the book is post nuclear, not a bioweapon, for example), but yes, there are many similarities that are true (such as the surveillance state)
As far as predictions go it is like a mirror in that it also reverses the image.
The tyrants are nationalists whose motto is "unity is a strength" instead of the actuality of globalists tyrants whose mottos "diversity" is a strength.
They even had a "message of hate" in the movie way before the Orwellian hate speech laws were brought into censor dissidents.
It is remarkable how many parallels there are if we simply swap out the fictitious right wing dictatorship for the real left wing globalist dictatorship we are under.
I was uncertain whether CB used this phrasing correctly but it seemed she did. She said “on the nose” meaning on point, precise. But I thought of the term “too on the nose” meaning a lack of subtlety. What made it somewhat confusing in my mind is imho the movie can possibly have that criticism levelled at it in certain moments as the adaption from its source material removed a degree of nuance for cliche. Still a fantastic story and the film makes it reach a much larger audience.
If someone had never heard of Natalie, and you showed them Leon The Professional, they'd be impressed. If you then showed them V For Vendetta, they'd see the same level of acting, only more rich and mature. That she was able to pull this off is no surprise at all.
Constantly underrated movie for the superhero genre.
Not really a superhero movie. It's from a graphic novel, he's more than human, but it's not a superhero story. But you are right that it's underrated.
@@platinumspider7859I feel like its a superhero movie in the same way that Watchmen was a superhero movie. It's about superheros, but the superheroism(?) wasn't the crux of the movie.
@@sanctimoniouslocke3941 I'd disagree. In Watchmen superheroes were a key part of the plot. It was about the humanity and inherent failings thereof that lie beneath their costumes but it was very much a superhero movie in a world where they became the norm. V is the only one like him in the setting and his powers are subtle. The plot has nothing to do with powers, it's a story of the corruption of political power and people's need to guard and fight for their freedom.
@@platinumspider7859 I find it similar in that, in Watchmen, the superpowers are incidental. With the exception of... the blue guy, at least. The alienation they felt towards others always seemed to come from things other than being superpowered. Being a woman in a patriarchal society. Being veterans with untreated PTSD. Being vigilantes living in a fascistic state.
Their superpowers were present in the story, but the story wasn't *about* the superpowers.
@@platinumspider7859 and organize. The fighting and guarding always fails without it.
I swear, as amazing as the alliteration-ridden speech is, I will never be able to recite it, even with practice. Hugo Weaving is incredible at what he does.
"Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. [carves 'V' into the poster on the wall] The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V."
But wait, he had a mask on, how do we know he didn't just read it and add as a voice over?
He was brilliant though given he acted entirely in a mask and we felt every emotion.
Since you said you liked symbolism, V's name, cell number, date of his escape.... did you notice when V surprised Creedy at knife point and turned the music on, it played Beethoven's 5th symphony.
It’s almost like watching a documentary
Documentary of the evils of "democracy".
Glad you caught all the mirroring of characters.
It's not meant to be a chekov gun thing that there is a literal pay off to the links but the implication is the likeness of spirit certain characters share leads them to do similar things, like ook eggs the same way... Just brilliant script, acting and cinematography.
One of my favorite films of all time. You mentioned parallels with another Facebook mine, Beauty and the Beast, but even more similar is it to yet another beloved classic, The Phantom of the Opera. V and Erik have a good amount in common. V is so charismatic and endearing, Hugo Weaving did such an excellent job making us fall for a character whose face you never even catch a glimpse of. The graphic novel is good but very different from the film (just a couple right off the bat, V has a hat that makes him look like a pilgrim, Evey is blonde and Gordon Dietrich isn't gay, he and Evey actually sleep together while she's hiding out at his place) and I agree with/prefer the differences in the film version. That domino sequence is sexy though, innit? 😅 So glad you enjoyed it, your reactions are always such a joy for me to watch ❤
You want parallels, try The Count of Monte Cristo.
"Equilibrium". Another dystopian future movie worth watching. Staring Christian Bale. If I say anything, it'll spoil it, but there's a reason the tag-line is "Forget the Matrix".
I was amazed at the writing behind this film when I saw it in theaters, and over the past decade I've become even more impressed.
Beyond the primary characters I also really liked Stephen Rea's performance as Eric Finch (the primary investigator). His performance reminded me of his portrayal of Detective Viktor Burakov in a film, Citizen X (1995), about the serial killer Andrei Chikatilo.
Wonderful reaction to a modern classic.
I clicked on this so fast!! I love this movie and I knew you would too.
V FOR Vendetta is a great and unique movie, which stands the test of time because it's speaking about what's going on now, thru-out the world. I must say though, I enjoy your reactions Gabby, your so animated, dramatic, unique and very expressive. 😂@ 9:19-20 "Wronnnnng". and @ 28:05-06 "Rememba...Rememba!!!" 🤣
Glad you watched this one. It's almost prophetic in a way. Thanks for your reaction.
You are the cutest person ever. Watching a movie with you must be so much fun.
Get that you realised that the people taking off the guy fawkes masks were the people who had been killed, so many people miss that. So, in the UK, November the 5th "Bonfire Might" is still celebrated, the celebration being that Parliament wasn't blown up. So mosf people are familiar with the "Remember, remember the 5th of November..." poem. about the gunpowder plot.
CB I’ve watched this so :any times and it never never gets old. But I’d never noticed that the clock at the end was at V until you pointed it out. The ideas here are so important.
John Hurt was really something in this film. Within a span of 20 years, he went from fighting Big Brother to being Big Brother.
The call backs, reversals, Easter eggs, parallels in the story telling here are fantastic. Every time I watch the movie I catch another twist of some kind. Watching this time, I noticed after the first building was destroyed, the Chancellor demands Tchaikovsky's "War of 1812" overture is added to the black list saying "I never want to hear that music again." And he gets his wish cause he's shot dead an hour before the overture was played again as the British Parliament blows up !!! LOLOL
Take The Count of Monte Cristo and 1894, smoosh them together and you got this film. No coincidence that John Hurt played the Chancellor as he was the main in 1984.
I love this movie so much and this is one of the best reactions I've seen - you immediately picked up on a lot of stuff other reactors miss and you even made a couple of observations that had missed previously. This movie is so scarily paralleled to what's happened in recent years it almost makes me wonder if it was used as a blueprint..
So many parallels to what we're going through now.
"You wear a mask for so long you forget who you are underneath it." 😷
"I wish I wasn't afraid all the time."
"He was one of the richest men in the country, a major stockholder in Viadoxic Pharmaceuticals. They developed the St. Mary's virus at the Larkhill Detention Facility."
It was interesting to watch reactions to this film in 2020.
Evil capitalism.
@@PROVOCATEURSK more than that, power mongers wanna KILL YOU.
Why ya think the Georgia guide stones got wrecked.
One of my favorite movies ever, but notice how much it lines up with events that happened in 2020 and its absolutely scary.
Awesome choice!!
The thing about repetition to me is it really makes you think about what V says, about “Coincidences”
Not CB literally making the shape of a V with her hands at 21:10 😂
I HAD SO MUCH FUN WATCHING YOUR REACTIONS ❤
I both love and hate this movie… because it comes to reflect our current national situation more every day. Thanks for your spot-on reaction and commentary - the best I’ve seen !
Ms. Blend, I have watched many, many YT reactions to this film, amd yours is easily one of the three best. Thank you.
And a bonus, a one sentence summary of the Parable of the Wise and Foolish Virgins: "There is no wick for the rested". I thank you for having the courage of your beliefs.
one of my favorite films. can't wait to see you react and hear your thoughts
If you enjoy the many symbols, parallels, echoes, call backs and reversals written into the incredible script of "V for Vendetta", try watching the bat shit crazy "Everything Everywhere All At Once" which collected 7 Oscars last year.
One of my favorite movies and so relevant even more so today...so glad you enjoyed it.😍
certain people that attain power( throughout history) have regarded the masses,the people as just sheep, no better than to be slaughtered . this is true historically and will continue to be true. this movie just hints at it.
the beauty met the beast and the BEAST said i can fix her XD
I am SO glad you discovered V. 🎆❤
It's not different from history. It's not even different from right now. It's all about degrees. Society should recognize just how few steps it can take to go from where we were, to where we are, to what's shown in this film. V understood that revolutionaries don't start out that way. They are all just regular people, until their reality forces them to become something else.
Here's the thing, the actual Guy Fawkes was a HORRIBLE person, and his cause was wrong, but he'll always be a symbol of rebellion against the government. And that is often a good thing.
first ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ really enjoy your reactions
It takes some acting chops to go through a full film in a mask and still produce that much emotion.
It´s criminal what the people allowed the governments to do to them during the pandemic.
This and Children of Men stick in my mind as great dystopian films of the early 2000s. I recommend reacting to Children of Men if you haven't already.
You made am amazing statement. All the people do is watch the screen.
They only see and believe what they are told on the SCREEN. I wonder if anybody now ONLY looks at the screen (phone) today.
So they only believe what they are told what to think about what they want you to think. This is the FUTURE you are seeing. You can see it now.
One of my favorite movies!
For as great as this movie is, it's still WAY too slept on, all these years later.
It will be blowing people's minds until everyone has seen it.
This and Shawshank Redemption vie with each other for my favourite movie of all time.
I saw V for Vendeta when I was in the Army in 2007. After that I was like what the fuck am I doing here!
This movie is 🔥
You get it. By jove, you get it!
"Is it too late to apologize? -Never!"
Wonderful observations- it was a pleasure to watch.
Great reaction as always
The jump scare in the shower was fantastically unexpected haha have you by happenstance been recommended the count of monte cristo (the recent-ish one) oscar, or pitch black. Very opposing recommendations but all of them with a start studded cast and some very underrated and I think all of them you would enjoy. Fingers crossed you get around to at least one of them 🤞🏽 keep up the hustle and all the artwork
Oh let’s go! She’s gonna love this. Underrated movie.
If you look closely at the "this is what's going to happen montage," you see a VERY quick glimpse of Evie and Finch living together. She's arranging a vase of Scarlet Carsons. In the future, they are a couple.
Nobody else ever mentions that.
THIS, is the same reason while so much social media told people not to watch JOKER. Because it literally show the people what's going on. People have a tendency to get complacent. But great actions can shock people out of their apathy.
V for Vendetta!!
Let's go ❤
Just imagine if what happened in that movie becomes real...
If you liked this you might like Orwells Nineteen Eighty - Four
I like the 80s version of the movie but the 50s version is good too
The Handmaids Tale ( 1990 ) is in the same vein aswell
I love this movie but after watching a couple of reactions i have one question. Where did V hide the letter in the fire? I can just come up with one place and i think its funny🤣
Predicted 2020.
Hell, there's a reason the Georgia guide stones got trashed.
Another great reaction 😃
Thank you!! 😁
I mostly love it when you react to movies made in the 20th Century but there are a few more recent movies I would really love for you to react to:
Passengers (2016)
Bladerunner 2049
(You could also react to the first Bladerunner movie - it’s a super famous classic and very influential but it’s a bit slow/boring. But don’t let it put you off watching the sequel which is one of those sequels which is better than the original).
Enemy at the Gates
The Grey
Edge of Darkness
If you’re doing 2049 u have to do original first
thanks for content
9:10. It is what America is becoming...
V vs Black mamba vs John Wick vs Deadpool
Fun fact, well, you be the judge, is it "fun"?
Actor James Purefoy originally took on the role of 'V', and shot a lot of scenes, however he hated the restrictions of wearing the mask so much that he left the production and was then replaced with Australian actor Hugo Weaving.
James Purefoy's scenes were not re-shot, they are in the film, he just had his lines re-dubbed by Hugo Weaving for the sake of continuity, but, as they're obviously both wearing the mask and Jame's voice is not heard, it's impossible to tell which scenes are which actor.
Some of the same guys who worked on this adaptation worked on the Matrix same with the John Wick movies : D
"Children of men" is another British Dystopian movie similar to this one. Its somehow better than this amazing movie. Check it out
The irony of the reality we are currently living is parity with a movie 😮
Bugsy Malone is the next movie you should watch, hilarious slapstick comedy i think you would like!✌️🙌
This movie is a lil too close to where we’re headed. It’s just the people in charge is flipped.
??
As you can see this movie isn't that far from the real world isn't it. Always remember that we the people have to most power, by numbers alone and with unity we are unstoppable. More and more people are waking up to point were if the metaphorical domino stone is getting pushed.. The shift of humanity is gonna change and this time for the good:) atleast that's what i like to believe haha. Anyway awesome reaction! Keep them coming!
Which is why our governments work tirelessly to keep us divided. As long as we are blaming "them," there is no "us."
All governments should remember the 5 of November
The romance angle wasn't a thing in the comic, not sure I like that addition. I think they did it to highlight parallels between V and Edmond Dantes.
If you liked this movie of a dystopian future. You should definitely watch *"Equilibrium"* starring Christian Bale (Batman) and Sean Bean (Game of Thrones).
You haven't done once upon a time in the West yet with Charles Bronson and Henry fonda, please do a reaction.
Do you know who V is sweetie....?........do you recognize his voice.........Agent Smith from the Matrix.....Hugo Weaving......also from Lord of the Rings.......
great movie! reminds me of a certain political party. that just so happens to still be in power. does art create life or does life create art
Is "Heather Sinclair" also your channel? If not, somebody is re-uploading your content.
No, that's not my channel. I've reported it multiple times to CZcams
Awesome reaction/ can you please watch a movie called A RIVER RUNS THROUGH IT.
The comic writer was an anarchist and the movie was made by a trans woman (Matrix)
but yes it is about fascism
I wished this was edited much better. It took away a lot of the sensitivities that this movie had. The reaction was good, but I am left sorely disappointed.
5:00 You say there is something about this... Maybe you see what's happening all around you nowadays. I'm a conservative and I use the word "Fascism" only when appropriate. Take another look around you....
