Image

What do you think of the new picture? I was thinking of just adding a bit of variety. The pluses is that this is publicity portrait so it would look really nice. On the negative side, this probably doesn't reflect the description of Evey as nice as a different picture might. (It just kinda looks like Natalie Portman).

This one, or maybe a portrait with her head shaved? --P-Chan 09:59, 31 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wow. That one is heaps better. Nice work. Lets keep that one. Cvene64 12:29, 31 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Okay. I was looking through the promo images, and I want to know what your opinion on this other one is? It is basically the same, except her arms are not cut off? Thoughts? Cvene64 12:38, 31 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Personally, I'd prefer an image from the comics. Using film images is fine when something is adapted from a book, but this is based on something already well-illustrated. For that matter I think this page should be primarily on Evey as she existed in the graphic novel, and using an image from the film obscures her age. Sarge Baldy 07:55, 2 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah go for it. There is not much in the way of GN images on the net though. Cvene64 08:47, 2 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

How's that one? Kind of a somber time, but works well as a portrait. Sarge Baldy 09:29, 2 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah looks really great! Would you mind doing the same for V (Character)? Cvene64 09:32, 2 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, I'll get on it. Sarge Baldy 09:34, 2 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There. For a minute I didn't think I was going to find a picture that would do him justice, but actually found one rather perfect. Sarge Baldy 09:52, 2 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

V for Vendetta Template

I'm removing this template from all its articles:

Which, I agree, is fairly provocative. However, I don't see how "V for Vendetta" deserves this on its own, or what useful information it provides. Surely the links in the articles are sufficient? If people want to revert my changes, that's fine by me. But please reply to this post so we can get a discussion started. At the moment I see no reason why the template should exist.

I've reverted my previous edit and requested a template deletion instead, see below. Maccy69 17:41, 18 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Evey's Name

Does the community feel that the following two theories about Evey's name are sound enough to be included in the article?

Firstly, for most of the story, V calls his apprentice Evey, but towards the end he calls her Eve. This change emphasises her maturing from the naive girl into the woman who now embodies the ideas.

Secondly, in the Mosaic religions, Eve is the mother of humanity and Moore's Eve becomes the mother of the new order.

Dogtooth (talk) 00:58, 13 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I like the first one. He says "Woman, something something" when she's out naked in the rain after being "freed". She does grow up, in a way many "adults" in the world still haven't. I don't know that it's worth including in an encyclopaedia though. Even a really terrible one written by idiots and curated by lunatics. The second theory I think is a stretch. Why's she called Eve? I suppose because there's a V in it, and it has a nice sound to it. The Biblical Eve is responsible for the fall of mankind, Evey doesn't do anything like that. 188.29.164.78 (talk) 15:28, 5 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Gordon's last name

I'm not sure Gordon had a last name in the book. Should be taken out if no reference, a page of the book would do. The film, er, "doesn't count" to put it politely, since Stephen Fucking Fry really had nothing to do with Gordon as written. Then again in the film Evey was in her mid-20s, powerful, and WORKED FOR the repressive media. Rather than as a match packer. So two very different Gordons, only one of which is a bleedin' travesty.

This is irrelevant, but if they wanted to make a film about such a stupid load of old shite, why not pay Alan Moore a fee to cover any resemlances, pick off the stylistic elements (basically, the mask), and call the film "The Amazing Guy Fawkes Man"? It would save pissing all over the sensibilities of anyone who ever enjoyed the book.

It'd save mistakes like this being maken. Ah, I love that book!
