And Another Reason For The Young To Read Classics
I went to see V for Vendetta last night. Thank goodness I had the foresight to read The Count of Monte Cristo when I was a teenager, because there were many, many references to it in the movie. In fact, I think an argument could be made that V for Vendetta is a very violent, bloody updating of the story.
So young'uns, when you find yourselves with a lot of time on your hands because you can't get into R-rated movies, use some of it to educate yourself on the classics. Once you reach the age of seventeen, you'll enjoy sexy and/or violent movies so very much more because you'll understand all the literary references.
School Library Journal, by the way, described the original V for Vendetta graphic novel as being appropriate for grades 9 and up.
Oddly enough, I haven't seen any reviews that mention Monte Cristo. Does that mean absolutely no one else has read the book or noticed that aspect of the movie?

This game is very interesting and as long as you know the Scions Of Fate gold you will love it and you will go to play this game every day. Instead in this game you will not complain it and you will only want to earn the SOF gold to make yourself become strong. sometimes you can also go to earn the Scions Of Fate money with your friends, because if you play the game with your friends you can be strong more easily. I know every player wants to get more and more cheap SOF gold to become strong. So you can buy sof gold and then you can equipment yourself with the weapons.
