I'm pretty sure the matrix was made because the wachowski's saw ghost in the shell and were like "we wanna make a movie like this"

Yeah the lobby shootout was deliberately styled like the end of the first GitS movie with bullets ripping through concrete pillars, though in a much more OTT way in The Matrix.

I dunno, I watched GitS a few times before seeing the Matrix and felt they were very distinct. The stories were not that similar and the main point of comparison is that are cyberpunk with guns.

The rhythm of the movies also felt very different. GitS had long quiet relatively slow sequences punctuated by intense action (that even followed this rhythm) while the Matrix was characterized by constant visual kinetic and the whole bullet time thing.

raditts posted:It wasn't BAD, it was just kind of repetitive and forgettable, and gives you little rain to want to come back to it once you've finished the game. And also weirdly more of a Castle Crashers knockoff than RCR, despite the source material. Actually, my friend and I wanted more out of the game than what we got. I realize there can only be so many stages and bosses due to the source material, but it felt really short. We were having a great time, though.

All I can say is that it is simultaneously a very good and faithful adaptation that is true to its source material while also doing some pretty great stuff with its source material to change it up in interesting ways. It is a very sincere movie.

I'm trying to remember the name of a movie but I can't remember anything about it other than some of the ending. I know Kite knows what movie I'm talking about because I asked him once before and he knew what movie but he doesn't remember now and he suggested I ask in here. All I remember is that the movie ended with a family driving away in separate cars, all 5 of them, and I think it might have been an action movie or comedy movie, pretty sure not a horror movie. I think they won the cars or something, and they maybe went through a red tunnel earlier in the movie but I don't know when. Any ideas?
