  • V: The Original Mini-Series Creator Kenneth Johnson and Actor Mark Singer discuss the lasting impact and continued relevance of the movie 35 years later.
    ABOUT V: THE CLASSIC MINI-SERIES
    Fifty spaceships, each three miles across, hover ominously above Earth's major cities. The Visitors that emerge are humanlike in appearance and extend the hand of friendship. Our planet's resources are just what these aliens need to survive. And for its future survival, unsuspecting humankind will need...a miracle!
    Kenneth Johnson's science-fiction spectacular mixes dynamic special effects with cliffhanger thrills. As fascist rule enslaves the globe, freedom fighters battle to save our species. Marc Singer heads an epic-sized cast of human defenders and - behind sleek uniforms and benevolent behavior - reptilian invaders. For unparalleled extraterrestrial excitement, the invaders of V are unstoppable.

    Today in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, this movie is more relevant TODAY, than ever before. I've watched this miniseries since 1984 & has been a powerful impact on my life. Great work.

    Loved V from when it screened in the UK way back in 1984 around the time of LA Olympics, another good interview from Kenneth Johnson and Marc Singer.

    "....how a charismatic leader can suck you in...with ahhh...promises...circumstances...." So are we talking 2008, or 2016? LOL.

    • @xenofett7008

      2008 is more applicable. Forcing government funded health care down our throats. Using the IRS against organizations he didn't agree with politically. Plus a mainstream media slanted to favor one side.

      @@xenofett7008 You'd be hard pressed to convince Singer or Ironside of that both being from Canada. They'd probably say 2016 and the suppression of media scrutiny akin to the scientists being shut up. Or has it been both? I dunno you ask Dr. Fauci.

    Addicted to it the minute it came out back in 83, absolutely brilliant.
    It paralleled an alien invasion to that of the Nazis invading Europe and the rounding up of Jews or scientists in this case. Great cast, great characters

    It was one of the best mini series on tv of the time. I never got to watch the reboot of V . How does it compare.

    • @Michael-et2uj
      @Michael-et2uj 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      The 2009 "V" reboot is excellent and well worth watching.
      The Visitors in the reboot are not as overtly military and fascistic as in the original 80s series, but they have a unique grasp of the soft power of mass media and how to manipulate the humans with it.
      The reboot seems to have an overall theme about the dangers of politics becoming a secular alternative to religion. This theme is particularly emphasized in an episode of the second season where the Visitor leader Anna visits the Vatican and directly threatens their religious authority implying that she will be the new "savior" of mankind.

    This miniseries was such a big deal when I was a kid. I was 11 when it came out and I absolutely loved it. I think the reason the new series didn't work out was that they messed with the formula too much. The sub-text of the rebellious struggle and allusions to 1940's German was watered down and lost in the new series. It lacked the darkness of the original. And honestly, the casting wasn't great. If it had the darkness and grit of something like Ronald Moore's Battlestar Galactica, it might have been a better show. I really hope Johnson gets a green light on a movie.
