V for Vendetta was the last movie the Wachowski’s made that is worth watching, probably because neither of them directed it. Man 2000-2010 was a great time to be a movie fan.

It is also a great comic book.

I'll defend Speed Racer (2008). It's a beautiful film, full of color and fun. Sure the story is simple, but it's just so much fun.

Also why did I never notice that Agent Elrond was V?!

I'm gonna have to rewatch it. Some day. Idk, I don't get a lot of movie time these days.

Comic and movie -- are there any other adaptations? (Book?)

Not that I am aware of. The artistry in the comic is so excellent.
