I was going to point that out. I mean, how many of you Yanky boys actually knew what Guy Fawkes was before that film came out? None I bet.
No doubt it'll be turned into something completely different now, be celebrated on a different day and will have nothing to do with Guy Fawkes.

Can'tcha just hear Guy Fawkes saying: "I started the first fires in this goddamn city. Before I knew it, every charlatan and shitheel was imitating me. You know what they got now? Guy Fawkes Night greeting cards. Isn't that precious? The idea has become the institution, boys. Time to move on. I want you to set a fire so goddamn big, the gods will notice us again, that's what I'm saying. I want all you boys to look me straight in the eye one more time and say: ARE WE HAVING FUN OR WHAT??!!"
