Everybody at my job has been stopping by to see how I am and if there’s anything they can do to help. It’s all out of genuine concern for my health and well being so I can’t get mad but their earnest sympathy is like acid to my already humiliated pride

every time someone goes "urrrr using humans as fuel is not realistic it should be as a processing unit" they ignore the fact that human bodies as fuel is more visceral of an image and the matrix is dumb

like, morpheus holding up a battery is more visually striking than morpheus holding up a cpu or some poo poo EDIT: Also considering every creative decision the Wachowskis have made since having creative freedom has been wholly terrible, I see no reason to think the only good movie they ever made did something wrong by being simpler and more comprehensible Mel Mudkiper fucked around with this message at 02:50 on Dec 19, 2017 |

Shame about the sequels tho No one should have told the Wachowskis that their dumb action movie had philosophical depth to it I knew we were screwed the second they made that anime that was like "Actually, the humans were the bad guys all along" No, gently caress off. The machines are evil, we fight them with kung fu, the end.

Even though I liked the car chase, I was amazed by how bad the 100 agent smith fight scene was. Also how pointless, because at one point neo just flies away for some reason. when the third one started with the indian family in the subway.....yeah

The second renaissance was the alternate history telling of how the war started and went right? Because I'm kind of a sucker for that stuff, and the machines were right to do what they did.

Lord of the Rings never showed the sensitive side of Sauron. If you are making a simple story about rebel underdogs against a larger soulless system you don't go "well actually the giant evil brainwashing machines aren't really all that bad" Like, they wanted to make their story more complex than the average hero's journey narrative but they aren't good enough as writers to do it EDIT: Plus, the movie series explicitly about ending the matrix never actually ends the matrix because the studio was banking on the MMORPG being popular

No ones saying the movie didn't have good points. It was still incredibly shittily written and has way too much emotional exposition from characters shoe horned into a pointless plot.

Second Matrix film car chase is incredible, built a semi-interesting expanded universe scenario. Third matrix boy loving howdy is that not good. Doesn't matter though because Speed Racer is the greatest film of all time so all other sins are forgiven.

The second matrix introduced the concept of programs designed to do certain things in the matrix that also had some autonomy. It actually reminded me of the Metaverse in Snow Crash and was hoping they would explore that angle more.

Seeing that movie in a movie theater is still the highest point a movie has ever achieved with me. That movie is loving perfect from start to finish and the Grand Prix / ending recaping every personal relation Speed had throughout the movie AS he finishes the final lap with the insane visuals was seriously the greatest loving thing a big screen has offered me. Also Michael Giacchino knocked it out of the park with the soundtrack for it.

I saw that movie high as poo poo with a friend of mine and my god was it fun. I also caught myself doing 90 on the drive home without even realizing it.

Its the only film I've ever seen multiple times in theaters its so good. Also, not only is the ending incredible for the reasons you stated, the reveal that he has always wanted to race not to win but to obliterate his opponents is fantastic.

Actually the best part of the sequels is at the end of the burly brawl when they use bowling pin sounds when a bunch of Smith’s get knocked down.
