And contradiction. First of all to be inspired by
Guy Fawkes is hilarious, given that he was a racist ultraconservative catholic who hated religious tolerance.
Secondly it implies fascism is anti Islam, when in fact the opposite is true, Adolf Hitler was very fond of islamism and the palestinian movement.
Most homosexuals in the UK fear muslims more than those from Tunbridge Wells.
The church of England is loyal to the monarch not to the government, the idea it would be supporting a republican government is absurd.
Why would a homosexual revere the Qur'an?, much like a jew revering Mein Kampf.
Just face it lefties, you've won and its more likely that this country will be installing gulags to cure people who suffer from conservatism than any right wing regime being formed.
Is it me or do lefties tend to lump anyone they disagree with as "right wing" be they conservatives , classical liberals, libertarians, neo cons, thatcherites, Powellites, nationalists and fascists? -

The hypocrisy of your profound ignorance here is, well, not that surprising for a run-of-the-mill right-whinger. This film was adapted from a comic book, completely different in subject, tone and purpose to the movie. If this film stood alone and was original, you might have a point, but it isn't and so all your uninformed points are invalid. But I'm guessing you're not much of a reader, and certainly not of comics?

It was a comic book series, not graphic novel, and yes, he refused credit for the reason I stated: the subject, tone and purpose of the film was changed during adaptation. I said that. What's your point?

My point is that the film didn't invent any of what is shown, they just misinterpreted aspects of the comic book. So saying that it was created as part of a "leftist agenda" is BS, because it was created in the eighties by an anarchist writer and an artist as a neutral exploration of fascism, a reaction to Thatcherism and a tribute to various things, and this film is just a weak, shallow, utterly simplified version of that.

The average person wouldn't even have heard of Antonio Gramsci, or know anything about him, and you clearly don't know much about the average person. You're right that conservatives are often ignorant or blind, though.

Wrong on the first point, and on all three examples (maybe less so the second and third ones, particularly if the individual was from England or from France, respectively). Also further evidence both that you don't understand the meaning of the original comic, and that you don't understand the average person, as paranoid rightwing cynics typically do not.

lol, well that's due to pop-culture. I hate that too, but that's got nothing to do with leftwing politics, it's about money, because crap sells. If you have a problem with this film, it's with the American makers and writers of it, not with anything in the UK.
