SDA, I've fixed the Wiki link (looks like vbulliten messed it up).

I am looking forward to a V remake but one thing I hope they keep is the references to facism in this country. Kenneth Johnson has said that the original V was based (at least in part) on the treatment of other races/faiths (in particular, the Jewish) by the Nazis in the second world war. I think that is part of what made V actually quite a powerful drama.
