    Posted my (spoiler-free) review here: http://www.hometheaterforum.com/htfo...hreadid=167133 Lemme know if you see any typos. ;)

    Check out this Associated Press article that attempts (quite well) to break down the whole timeline of the Matrix universe.

    The Matrix Reloaded (2003)

    Chuckles, The "Hmmm..." was not a derisive thing, just illustrating that I'm trying to get the movie straight in my head. If we're going by the ratings I've given the trilogy over at IMDb: The Matrix - 10 The Matrix Reloaded - 9 The Matrix Revolutions - 8 (though I'd give it 8.5 if I...

    The Matrix Reloaded (2003)

    Just got back. Hmmm. What I can say is this: if you loved Reloaded, odds are you'll really enjoy Revolutions. If you disliked Reloaded...you won't like Part 3. Man that's really helpful, isn't it? :b I was dazzled numerous times, confused a little bit here and there, and fairly...

    Barely Matrix - related but worth mentioning: Rob Dougan's new double CD came out this week and I would absolutely recommend it! It's sorta like Leonard Cohen meets Sting with a gothicky driving dancy backbeat. The second CD is all instrumentals, including music heard in The Matrix, The...

    I read Poland's report a few days ago and opted not to post the info here, as I didn't want to come off like a tacky gossip-freak. If it's true, I wish the guy the best of luck. If it's not, then there's no story. Either way, I'd agree that Poland handled it quite classily. (Is classily a...

    The Matrix Reloaded (2003)

    Chuck, that's why I never see a movie more than twice theatrically no matter how much I dig it. That window between last visit and the eventual DVD release usually recharges my batteries for a revisit. And in the video game trailer for Revolutions, how insanely COOL is that horrible evil...

    Looks like Thomas Chong ("Tank" in the original film) is now suing WB! Full article available here.

    From an article at The Independent : Full article accessible from the link above. The full listing of 'mistakes' is available here. Seems you can vote for whether or not you think each 'mistake' is valid. Fun!

    The Matrix Reloaded (2003)

    It always kinda boggles me when people use box office numbers to try and build up/tear down a specific movie. Profitable does not equal quality. Most people would probably agree that Dark City is either a pretty good or downright excellent film. It made less than 15 million bucks in the...

    For fans of the film: David Poland adroitly disassembles the New Yorker's blathering review of The Matrix Reloaded here. I read the entire New Yorker piece when it was first published. Glad to see I'm not the only one who saw it for the self-important wind machine it really is.

    Good job on that one, Travis. First time around I couldn't beat Seraph so I missed those scenes. Once I finished the game (and enabled the sword!) I went back and whooped Seraph's butt. Nice to see some more Agent Smith in this game! :TU:

    Jim, You shouldn't let a few speed bumps get in the way of what's been a brilliant thread. If someone plops by and says "OMG it sucked you guys are clueless I swear", just ignore it. Many of the film's detractors (even mild detractors) have been able to share their opposing opinions quite...

    But it's more than him (i.e. the screenwriters) just casually saying "Oh, um........upgrades." The film makes it more than clear that Smith is no longer just another 'running program'. In the first film, he was part of the code. Nowadays...not. Plus can we all at least give it up for the...

    Enter the Matrix movie scene descriptions: Scene 1: (Note: "Sparks" is the operator (Tank, Link, etc.) of the Logos. Sparks, Ghost and Niobe are the only crewmembers.) Sparks and Ghost discuss Niobe's decision to go after the 'package' left in a post office. The package is the same...

    The Matrix Reloaded (2003)

    Here's hoping that the movie sequences from the game are included on the eventual Matrix Reloaded DVD. They're not exactly 'required' to appreciate the movie, but there are lots of fascinating character moments in here. They feel a bit like a batch of very cool Deleted Scenes.

    The Matrix Reloaded (2003)

    Ditto. :) I just saw a cool little cut-scene in the game that deals with the Keymaker, the Merovingian, and those two henchmen (one of whom gets offed by Persephone in the film) and it got me to thinking... YES I'm a fan of the series, but the more I think on The Matrix Reloaded the more I...

    I can see the casting call now: Pretty blonde needed to fake an orgasm in the Matrix sequel. ;) Scenes like these make me wish I were a casting director.

    Wow what an insulting statement. How bizarrely coincidential that, alone in our computer rooms, EVERY fan of the movie is 'inventing' the exact same stuff!!! Amazing! This attitude is the exact flip-side of "If you didn't like it you're too clueless to understand it". Insulting a person's...

    Chuck, You and I are clearly of like minds on this movie. I liked it even more the second time, and I'll probably see it again Sunday. Three times (theatrically) in one week is probably a first for me. Right now I'm stuck on trying to kill a helicopter in Enter the Matrix. It's kinda hard.

    Howie, I don't know if he was trying to kill Neo. He clearly drew blood from his hand and then shook Neo's hand. I think that was his intent from the outset.
