I had such high expectations for this movie and it just blew me away.

It was amazing.

The 6 months to revolutions will be tough but after seeing this movie, definately worth it :p

So many positives, and not a single negative!?!
things fUxed up about Matrix (Over)Reloaded:

[I've censored this text for those who haven't yet seen the movie; click "Quote" in the bottom right hand corner of this message to read it. - Laz]

<!--
Introduction of too many new characters, and half of them didn't really matter anyway: Keymaker, the AzN protector of the Oracle (excuse for fighting), Niobe, that AzN guy with Niobe, Link, Link's wife, that Commander what's-his-name, the Architect (Colonel Sanders of KFC), Oracle (is a bloody program!?!), that annoying kid that Neo saved, the psycho guy who agent Smith has controlled, the Mafia-like boss and his wife Persephone (rip off of Greeks), the two Ghost twins... FFS!!!! So many characters, so little development!

- fUxed up plot: Intro new characters = new roles = 50+ subplots... A few lame ones; Link and his wife's relationship... the (unnecessary) sex scene between Neo and Trinity (I hate Carrie-Anne Moss - reminds me of Ms. Dam)... stupid excuse for dance party (underground ORGY)... Morpheus' gay speech... is Agent Smith's a goodie or baddie now???? or is he a virus???... what's the deal with the two Ghost twins - where are the rules for the Matrix?... wtf is the Architect, and the fact that the Zion's been f*d 5 times already???... Neo's OPEN BLOODY HEART SURGERY!!!! -->
And all that plus some non-sensical philosophy about choice, freedom, free-will, fate, love and all that other BS...

<!--
In the end, it unequal to the original Matrix, more of the action sequences, screwed up plot and characterisation, and quite overdone. And the "to be concluded..." really pissed me OFF!!!!

i honestly didnt go to see it for the plot or characters. i knew thatd be crap and wasnt expecting much. and yes, your absolutely right about how they just kept on finding excuses for fight scenes, which is what the movie relied on.

Ultimately, thats wat the writer's intended. That's what makes it bettter than the first - its philosophical questions about human beings and society

haha i totally agree with the two posts that got censored by laz


also the CGI, although being bullshit, still wasn't seamless.


it was ok overall, but i do agree a lot of the scenes were unecessary

colonel sanders hahahah

hmmm mabye i should make a new thread entitled MATRIX FOR PEOPLE WHO ARN'T TOTAL CYNICS.

I thought matrix ONE had a bit of an unbelievable storyline, and now I think its sooo genius and have tenforth respect for wachowski bros

seriously, the actual matrix is an original and believable idea but the fact that theres "the one" who is human and can control computers is soo unbelievable and i duno why i dismissed it before matrix2, and now it makes a lot more sense.

I thought the CGI was rad, tell me any other movie that has done that AND showed the faces of the CGI characters AND slowed it down
AND show the other 100 agent smiths in slow motion

the writing was a bit better in the original but i think that was because they didn't have the budget

people are just cynics. They want to hate it and want to whinge about it, as if they owe YOU something

i didnt really like the introduction of so many characters, and the city of Zion.. haha when they were all standing around wearing leather jackets and sunglasses i was laughing because they just looked so lame.... and that massive orgy thing i didnt like either..
however the 2nd hour of the movie was better , when it was back to the (mainly) original people on that ship , and they went back into the matrix...

reloaded and revolution was meant to go together... like a movie split into 2 sections so of course the ending will leave you hanging... still annoying though...

yeah the critics are giving it shit, but one i read wasn't even correct! It said something like morpheaus and trinity are the protectors of Neo (wtf!?)

people are pissed off at the characters but they mean nothing! they are just cool for the sake of being cool
