Blood Elf Mage hero from Warcraft III - "My blood cries out for the vengeance of my people's blood, which can only be repaid by at least twice as much blood, or maybe three times as much blood, like if you went to hell, and it was full of blood, and the blood was on fire, and it was raining blood, maybe that would be enough blood, but eh, probably not."

Relatable main characters don't instantly make the movie better.
Can you relate to the physical manifestation of Dream better than you can some random everyman hero?
Does that make Sandman any less wonderful?
Can you relate to a psychotic man convinced that his mask is his face, throws civilians down elevator shafts, and is an all-around brutal sociopath?
Is Watchmen not one of the greatest examples of the genre ever produced?

One of the MAIN POINTS of V for Vendetta is that he was fighting for anarchy. Not truth, not justice. Anarchy.
Another point is that you're never certain that V is the good guy. The government, while admittedly fascist, is NEVER SHOWN TO BE OUTRIGHT EVIL. Just totalitarian.
The movie stripped that gray factor away into a stereotypical good vs. evil story. They dumbed-down the story to increase appeal.

And I don't care for that.

And if you read the novel, why did you claim I quoted the movie incorrectly?
I claimed you quoted the movie incorrectly because, quite honestly, the quote in the graphic novel wasn't memorable enough for me to recall the difference. The scene portrayed in the movie, particularly given Hugo Weaving's delivery of the line, on the other hand, WAS memorable, so when it comes to that particular quote, my brain eschews the graphic novel version in favour of the movie version.

I'm not claiming that Sandman (A personal favourite, actually) or Watchmen or any other of his works are bad because of the lack of easily-relatable characters, certainly not. I merely pointed out that I found the movie adaptation of V For Vendetta to be more enjoyable than the graphic novel in part because I could relate to it easier. I'm not from England, I am not old enough to have experienced Margaret Thatcher's government even if I was from England, and don't particularly find a story that centers around a prostitute and an anarchist all that appealing. It's not that the original novel wasn't good, because it was, I just infinitely prefer the movie despite its deviations from Moore's original intent.
Oh, alright. My apologies.
But just for the record, Neil Gaiman wrote Sandman. Not Alan Moore.

There are two types of people in this world... those that think there are two types of people in this world, and everyone else who knows better.

Which is actually funny because it usually contains those stupid motivational sayings that coorporate offices love throwing at their employees.

"Sure as I know anything, I know this - they will try again. Maybe on another world, maybe on this very ground swept clean. A year from now, ten? They'll swing back to the belief that they can make people... better. And I do not hold to that. So no more runnin'. I aim to misbehave"

Mock the Week~
Frankie Boyle:
"Have you seen all this stuff about gay adoption? What's the controversy?! I'd have loved a gay dad! Do you remember all that stuff at school?
'Oh my dad will batter your dad-'
'My dad could batter your dad-'
'LISTEN! My dad'll shag your dad! ... And your dad will enjoy it.'

And Frankie Boyle again on the collapse of Margret Thatcher:
"Give her a state funeral. Because a lot of people would like to pay their last respects... and a lot more people will want proof that she's really dead! It will be the first time the twenty-one gun salute shoots the coffin... For £3 million, they could give everyone in Scotland and shovel and we would dig a hole so deep we could hand her over to Satin personally."

EPIC.

I just watch The Blues Brothers...It has plenty but three lines stand out the most...

Elwood: "Illinois Nazis."
Jake: "I hate Illinois Nazis."(After scaring some Nazis off the bridge by driving the car into the crowd)

Elwood: "We're on a mission from God." (Whenever they are trying to recruit someone for the band)

Elwood: "It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses."
Jake: "Hit it."

Oh and almost forgot a fourth..."The use of unnecessary force has been authorized." (In attempt to catch the Blues Brothers)

Rifftrax on Twilight. Right during the "passionate" first kiss scene, which takes forever, Mike Nelson says "COME ON! It takes Peewee League Football teams less time to score!"
Win. I saw the rifftrax a few weeks ago, and it's awesome.

Mine is from Evil Dead 3: Army of Darkness, "All right, you primitive screw-heads, listen up! See this? This... is my BOOMSTICK!"

So what I want to know is, when I'm asleep, do I really remember how to fly? And forget how when I wake up? Or am I just dreaming I can fly?"

Augh, yes, I realized about two minutes after I first posted that I'd had a massive brainfart. It's sadly been a while since I've read any of my favourites...makes me want to go bum around in Barnes and Noble for a little while, haha.

Close, but it's from a novel. I thought more people had read it here; it's a fairly "out there" book that's actually pretty good.
