I thought they chose well when they picked V for bringing a comic to life. I know when a person has the money its their right to artistically express talents in any way they choose. I just had to throw out the minor agitation I have with producers making movies out of cartoons, because its the thing to do. I would rather see someone go behind a movie that was already made and create a masterpiece like Batman Returns (IMO) than to appealingly go through a list of what's been done and what hasn’t and start picking.
They would have been better off to write their own story if they wanted to make such a movie. At least they wouldn’t have had to put a fat kid with his chimp friend in it to stay true to a cartoon storyline.
I really like their style. I think they are exceptional script writers and great directors. The effects do look cool. I even watched the cartoon when I was young. I just thought these guys were above this.
Thanks for supplying the link, I like to keep up with upcoming movies and I missed this one. I may decide to stomach what I expecting in the way of storyline to see the visuals on a big screen.
