re:mote voices

the league of extraordinary gentlemen - given how badly the film could have treated the original comic by alan moore and kev o'neill, it really wasn't that bad. oh sure, they blew the plot up to a whole new hyper-dramatic level, added new and surplus characters, pandered to a certain degree of cliche, and spouted some fabulously bad dialogue. but on the whole. there was something there that had potential, the working of the source material, the interaction and plotting.

changes i didn't particularly like? alan quatermain from memory had an opium problem when he first appeared in TLoEG, he was found by mina harker. the vampiric nature of mina which was promoted by the film was not evident in the comic, there were undercurrents and suggestions, but nothing so blatant and out there.

anyway, these are just initial notes. i'll write more in the morning. and yes i still think kill bill was shit.
