Video Flagged Dead

V for Vendetta - final gun battle royal

V enters a shady-looking tunnel and gets surrounded by guys with guns. He is shot many, many times. V politely informs his enemies that they will be soundly murdered once they run out of bullets. They fire, run out of bullets and are murdered (soundly). After V willingly accepts this barrage of bullets and murders everyone in a 5-mile radius, he lumbers away.

Anonymity is your enemy when you're in a movie. Guys with names hardly ever die. If one of them shouted out, "My name is Carl!" he might have had a fighting chance.

Remember, remember the Fifth of November,
Gunpowder, treason and plot.
I know of no reason,
Why gunpowder treason,
Should ever be forgot.


Funny, considering how Guy Fawkes Night is a celebration of the failure of the Gunpowder Plot and the subsequent death of Fawkes.

The full rhyme goes:
Remember, remember the Fifth of November,
The Gunpowder Treason and Plot,
I know of no reason
Why Gunpowder Treason
Should ever be forgot.
Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes, t'was his intent
To blow up King and Parliament.
Three-score barrels of powder below
To prove old England's overthrow;
By God's providence he was catch'd
With a dark lantern and burning match.
Holloa boys, holloa boys, let the bells ring.
Holloa boys, holloa boys, God save the King!

A penny loaf to feed the Pope
A farthing o' cheese to choke him.
A pint of beer to rinse it down.
A faggot of sticks to burn him.
Burn him in a tub of tar.
Burn him like a blazing star.
Burn his body from his head.
Then we'll say ol' Pope is dead.
Hip hip hoorah!
Hip hip hoorah hoorah!

A faggot of sticks to burn him.

Ah, the universal standard of the faggot. Most people seem appalled when I use it - like when I say, "Hey, look at that faggot of kids over there." I guess people still prefer to say "gaggle."

A faggot is a bundle of sticks.

They did shoot him elsewhere. That's why he died. We're left to assume he was able to fight on and not die right away because the virus they infected him with, which improved his motor function and reflexes, also did wonders for his pain threshold --he didn't seem to be in too much pain when he walked out of the prison fire.

Nice sift for Guy Fawkes day (Nov 5th)
