There were a few examples of corny dialogue. But I would say the overall execution was so great that none were terribly noticable. I was hooked from the start.

And Moore v. Miller? Interesting. But the parallels end with their take toward their movie adaptations. Miller was very, very involved with the adaptation for Sin City, to the point where he's writing a brand new story for the sequel. Meanwhile, Moore had his name excised from the credits for V for Vendetta, mostly due to the changes.

And yes, I have heard there were plenty of changes. Thatcher stuff was updated for the Bush era, V has been somewhat humanized, and the final chapter takes a wholly different form.

I also don't really care. The movie was fantastic in its current execution. Fantastic. It really needs to be taken on its own merits. Which are numerous.
