Unless we get overwhelmed at home by a combination of disaffected youth organized by marxist liberals and civilian invaders. The film V was an embarrassing piece of propaganda, but the scene of a tank battle in the midwest USA with the implication it was fighting a civil war disturbed me.

Didn't see the movie but I'm with you. Even more disturbing is the fact that even while killing 600,000 of each other, the Blue and the Gray had FAR FAR FAR more in common with each other than the Blue and the Red do now.

I dunno, I liked that movie. It was more or less a message about evil rulers who see the masses as expendable cattle and that governments are accountable to their people, not the other way around. It had undertones of the Indian/British struggle with the modern biological warfare scare factor to it.

HUH? Wasn't V about space alien Nazis who wanted to steal our water and eat us?
