Matrix trilogy

[00Kevin]

When it was released in 1999 "The Matrix" became an instant Classic..........the matrix series is one of the best scifi film series of the modern day

tomorrow, "Matrix Reloaded" hit theaters and promises to be even better then the first........also, the video game "Enter the Matrix" hits shelves tomorrow, it will be quite a day

tonight at 10:00 I'm going to see Matrix Reloaded (basicallly the midnightshowing, only 2 hours early)

so whadda ya say? what are your thoughts on..........The Matrix Series??????

[00Kevin]

1:30 till reloaded time, anyone ganna see it?

[EvilNazi]

i am. but here in argentina it comes out on may 22nd.

hey, one question: what's up with that new matrix game? is it a GAME, or sth like an nteractive encyclopedia of matrix or something? i read a short paragraph about it and got that sort of impression.

PS: if you are interested in a good shooter where you can do matrix stunts, you should get Max Payne.

[swords]

Your one lucky guy 00.;) Im hoping to catch it by the weekend for sure.

I think the first Matrix left a impact on audiences, even I thought it was going to be strictly a shoot em up flick but was surprised by the twist on reality.

The Matrix is the Indiana Jones of the 2000s.

[brainofj21]

Enter the Matrix is a game.

[swords]

Hey 00, how was Reloaded?

[00Kevin]

WOW

Matrix Reloaded was the wierdist, strangist, most mind bending film I've ever seen

amasing effects

chase sceen was Excellent
the fights were amasing

forget EVERYTHING you think you know about the Matrix, this one has more then enough twists and turns to make your head spin

It can be confusing at times, and........

....It ends on a cliffhanger, so we have to wait until november to find out how the Matrix Trilogy ends.

[swords]

Whoa

Thats great news, read that the action and especially that chase scene was brilliant. I might be catching it tomorrow night, if not definitely by Sunday.


How was the burly brawl(The 50 + Smiths fight)?

Don't spoil us though.;)

[00Kevin]

actually 100 smiths ;) :D

It was cool, pretty non-stop

[brainofj21]

I just got back from seeing this masterpiece. Awesome movie. One of the best films I've seen in awhile.

[Arclam]

I don't care to see it, I would rather wait for it to come on HBO.

[swords]

[Neo voice]Whoa[/Neo voice]. After all the reviews I read, I don't understand what the critics were driving at.

I loved the philosophical play on words, hmmm, I don't see how it was boring, as it made sense to me and it brought deep reflection for the audience. We know what the Matrix is, we know that you can bend the rules in the Matrix, the first film established that then finally shown what was possible in the Matrix.

Now Matrix Reloaded is all about the fun, it doesn't have the constraints of the original(introducing characters, introducing the story, what its all about), hence, we can just proceed to having a blast.

And whoa, what a blast! Although the Neo vs weapon weilding foes, and the sword fighting/twins and agents, Morpheous, Trinity chase was mind bending as was mentioned, the burly brawl was so spectacular, it was so incrediable, all I have to say is whoa, well, how about wow?

This fight scene was incrediable, err, I said that already, how about perfect? I think this sequence alone is worth the price of the movie's viewing.

This movie not only kills away the competition, but it actually triumphs over the original. I like the original's ideas, but this one wins my vote in the entertainment value. This may seem shallow, but hey, I could say that about SW fans who are just as guilty.

I loved the "rave", that was a nice touch, had a trance to it. I love how Neo was portrayed as a religious figure(if I must say, Jesus Christ comes to mind), and once again I loved the Burly brawl. I highly recommend the Matrix Reloaded...

...And be sure to wait after the credits for a preview of the next installment. November is no longer a anticipation for the Indy DVD's, Revolutions is.;)

naw, matrix will NEVER be as cool as indy.........it IS a Terminator Rip-off after all :D

[swords]

Oh yeah, we'll see who rips off who once T3 hits theaters.;):D

I noticed the key icon to your topic title, fits in nicely with the whole 'keymaker' plot of the movie.

THE BURLY BRAWL ROCKS! Its the first thing I thought of when I woke up this morning.:D

[brainofj21]

Hey Ebert and Roeper loved the film. Richard Roeper called it the best film he's seen so far this year, which I would have to agree with.


I can't wait till October when this film hits DVD!

November is going to own me, Indy on DVD and Revolutions in the theater!

[vaxer]

I saw the movie yesterday and I found it pretty entertaining. Someone said it was mind bending, I don't really see when, I mean you learn a little more about how the matrix works and all the rest is just action.

The effects are awesome (maybe a little too much of superman though), they are the main point to the movie.

I didn't really like the "cause and effect" philosophical part, it was kinda too much and didn't help the slow going senario. It seemed that absolutly every thing was a pretext to a fight with the overly powerful Neo.

The spirit of the first movie is kept but I can't help but think that this movie isn't more than just entertaining. It remains good but in my opinion there should never have been a sequal to The Matrix and that is probably what bothers me the most. The first one could have very well ended the movie. Ahh, eternally unsatisfied people like me are annoying, I know.

[swords]

Oh are they now?;)

I agree that the first Matrix wrapped things up nicely, I think the Wackawski brothers wanted to up the ante in special effects in these sequels to showoff and set a new precedent. Much like they did for "Bullet time", which was ripped off repeatedly in other movies following the Matrix.

What I meant was that the action was mind bending.:cool: the philosophical relgious allegory was fun to ponder.:cool: I thought, and I think things will make more sense when Revolutions hits theaters. Nonetheless, glad you enjoyed it Vaxer.

[thegreatimposter]

What's with all the sex?? Did we really need all of those innuendo's and rediculous "I'll tell you want you want to know if you kiss me" scenes. Hunh?? I never in a million years saw that stuff coming and personally find that it has no place in the matrix universe... (Including the 'Cake' scene...)

[swords]

Hmmm, not too familiar with the cake scene, but...

From what I read, the sex/orgy/dance scenes were thrown in to distinquish the humans from the machines. It was to show that the humans weren't going to take any "crap" from their enemies. I thought it was a great scene, hypnotizing and erotic(yes, erotic).

[Kill Cavalry]

I wouldn't have minded the scene if they'd done it in a different way. The party was fine, it was commentary on what seperates on the machines, as was the sex scene. But together and in the way they did it, the scene was just disgusting and distasteful.

The biggest thing that bugged me about it was the feet. They kept showing FEET! Do the Wachowskis have something with feet? If they do I don't want to ever hear about it again!

The movie all together was very very cool though. Very intellegent and well thought out. A fitting follow up to a ground breaking film.

[thegreatimposter]

Hey Swords,

Were you sleeping during the movie?? How can you forget the "cake" scene?!?!? Matrix-ey legs open up to the XXX-spot then Kaboom, explosion.

Girl leaves room. Eventually followed with

"You're wearing her lipstick, darling..."

"What're you talking about dear...?"

"She wasn't kissing you on the lips, my love."

[swords]

Oh, yeah, I remember, I never understood it, but I do now from you said. I thought Merovingian(The French aristocrat) put a virus into the cake, anyway, he was a interesting villian. A interesting quote too...

Kill Calvary. you were looking at their feet? I was looking at their see-through shirts. Of course when the camera wasn't spanning across their feet I was. Yeah, it was kind of raunchy, and I don't think anyone was expecting to see Neo's arse either*gahh!* I guess something for the ladies seeing how we got a lot of clevage shots.;)

[Indy Smith]

That french bloke with the complicated name was the previous "one" apparantly.

I didnt like the party/sex scene either. it was far too long and was all visuals. There was only music played to underscore it and well I think saying that it was put there to show you that the humans are different from the machines is a wack excuse...I mean, lol, we all know that the humans are different from the machines. We aren't that dum are we?....Are we?

[Han_Solo]

Sorry i feel the Matrix 2 is terirble and what a shame it is.

Fighting-same as first one differnt locations-boring!
Plot-Did'nt understand it
To slow!

[swords]

Slow?? Thats a first one, but I respect that.

Indysmith: They didn't throw it in to say, look at us, we're human, we're different.

I meant it was celebrating the human race, its a symbolism. Veterans who returned from WW2, what was the first thing they did when they first came back? They partied and made love with their wives much like in Reloaded. I didn't think this would get such a negative reaction, the creators of this movie are most likely from the "Rave" sector of society, anyway.

I bet a lot of people in the audience were digging that scene, it problably paralleled their own lives.

And how many would have preferred something cliche? Even Morpheous' motivative speech was cliched in itself, what happens afterwards(the rave), was something new. It fits the whole psyche of the movie.

[Indy Smith]

You can call me Smith! Mr Anderson! ;)

Well why was that scene so boring to me? Because for me it went on far too long. It didn't actually do anything to the plot did it? Nope, not really. You could have cut it down to 30 seconds of Neo and Trinity shagging and ended it there.

[swords]

Thats cool, Smith.;)

I thought the rave was cool anyway, you thought it was a bore, I guess we can call that George.

My name-is-NEO!;):D

[Indy Smith]

I'm going to enjoy watching you die...Mr ANDERSON!

[swords]

hmmm, we're quoting backwards. Anyway, this is the part where I jump up, smash you against the subway ceiling, then do a crazy backwards flip, then you get ran down.;)

[EvilNazi]

the movie is entertaining. but like many others, im not satisfied.
too much action, the plot isnt very developed.

the first part didnt have so much action, it was more focused on the plot.

and the sex scene with all those guys dancing in a kind of disco doesnt have anything to do with the main plot, i found that scene unnecessary and boring.
besides, when you see the first movie and Zion is mentioned, but not shown, it makes you believe all kind of things of how zion might look like. and when it is shown in this movie, that feeling of not knowing an dimagining is gone. i dont know if i am explaining myself good.

the action scenes are far too many and far too long. the 100 smiths fight was cool, but his presence isnt necessary for the plot. and the movie doesnt focus on the agents that much.


the spirit of the first part isnt shown in this sequel, im really disappointed.

anyway, i have a question.

SPOILER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

V


the architect of the matrix at the end talks too much and too fast, i couldnt quite follow what he said. explain me everything, because that part was the most important one and i didnt really get it. i wanna know EVERYTHING he says, there were like six versions of the matrix or so. all that.



[Edited by EvilNazi on 05-25-2003 at 08:33 am]

[British_Lion_2003]

Innit gezer.

That bit well bored be with the gezer wiv the white hair and beard. When I first saw him I thought he was gonna say he was god.

I gave up listening to him. All i got out of it is that there were more ones and that he had to choose to take 7 people and start up Zion again or let evey human die.

But at the end of the film in not sure if they r still in the Matrix or the World in which they now think is real is another Matrix for people who wont exept the programme.

I cant wait for the next Matrix to see what happens. I hope theres lots a fighting again coz thats th bits that are really wicked.

[Kill Cavalry]

Yeah, the guy with the beard was the Architect, the builder of the Matrix, the master program if you will. So essentially, he was god. He talked like a college text book and I seemed to be the only one in the theater who understood what he said, so I'm going to explain it. If you haven't seen the film STOP READING! I'm not really sure how I got this in one sitting (especially in the front row), but I'm pretty sure this is exactly what he said.

The architect told Neo, in layman's terms, that there were eight versions of the Matrix. The first was paradise, as we know from Smith in the first movie. It was rejected. The second was a dystopia, this was also rejected. Finally the architect created the matrix as we know it today. Morpheus, as well as the rest of Zion, believes that the humans have been fighting the machines for about a century. It is actually much much longer than that. There have been six versions of the modern matrix. Each version has had it's own "One." The One and the prophesy are actually programs created to keep the humans in line. They allow the ones who truly question society to be weeded out and hearded into Zion, which the machines created themselves. Although the minds have been freed, the people are trapped. The machines know where they are and how to defeat them. The One for that version of the matrix is told to choose several humans to survive so that Zion may be rebuilt and ready to recieve more rejects. This explains why Neo wasn't just destroyed by the machines in the last movie when he awoke.
Basically, the prophesy is bogus. It was created by the machines to help get rid of the people who would corrupt the others in the Matrix. It is this that leads me to belive the real world is the actually real world. If it were a second Matrix, why would the machines continually destroy the city of Zion? They could let the humans keep believing that they are free when really they still act as batteries. Computers and machines do exactly what is necessary in a very precise manner, they don't just go around destroying everything in sight, they destroy what is necessary and nothing else. It would be unnecessary to destroy humans that contribute to their overall goal. I think they are in the real world, which may or may not be a good thing for them.

[British_Lion_2003]

How do explain Neo stopping those machines and knowing that he could?

[swords]

Thats the thing, is the "real world" the actual real world? Calvary has a pretty good summary there, heres the principle behind the propheised one:

Neo holds the code to reload the Matrix and Zion(I believe), and like was said, a selected amount of males and females are choosen by Neo to rebuild Zion and start the whole cycle again. You see, the machines are trying to spread the code that Neo has so that by the time they have rid the Matrix of this anomoly(Neo), then the architech can focas on building the Matrix without setbacks(again, from what I gather).

But heres whats interesting about Reloaded's ending, instead of taking the door on the right like the previous 5, this anomoly is motivated most profoundly by love, and hence, he takes the door on the left to save Trinity. The architech even knows this, yet why would he let Neo have the power in the first place to choose the door on the left which eliminates the power source for the machines?

Because when Neo takes the door on the left, this kills the whole human race, right? The machines batteries? I recall the architech said something about "other resources", yet he's willing to leave the fate of man kind to Neo?

Very interesting, can't wait for Revolutions...

[Kill Cavalry]

He said the machines would be able to resort to alternate sources. My question is, what sources are those?

[VALIS]

The long rant of my review short: The movie was enjoyable, although I failed to be impressed. If any of you have read Scott Kurtz's (of PvP fame) review, I agree with most of his points, although I did manage to enjoy the film for the most part. I found myself bored during the 100 Agent Smith fight. It got repetative, and I could tell they were using CG a lot, and it looked it. Also, I think a lot of the effects would have looked better had they used wires, like in the previous film, and there were a few instances where the slow-down effect seemed random (during the exchange of gunshots immediately prior to the highway comes to mind).

The easiest explanation of how Neo was able to sense and stop the Sentinels in the "real" world, is that he didn't go into the real world. Instead, when he went into the mainframe of the Matrix, he entered a subroutine designed to mimic the world they new, only with the illusion of Zion being destroyed. As he's still in the Matrix, he can sense the Sentinels and control them.
Another explanation would be that the Matrix is a prison, in a more conventional sense than we are lead to believe. IE that for whatever reason these people were placed in a virtual world to keep them passive. However, the creators of this prison realized people could figure this out, so they designed a second layer to the illusion: that while World A is an illusion, the real world is one where they are beset by machines, who have created this illusionary world. The people who see through this illusion will feel that they've been able to see through the illusion, but fail to see the miserable world is also an illusion. Mainly because the idea of a world modelled on something tolerable and with a decent amount of security could easily be seen as someone's attempt at an illusion, but why would someone imprison someone else in a dystopia? With a dystopia, they have the belief that they are fighting against something that's oppressing them, thus channelling thier rebellion into a safe outlet.
I thought of this hypothesis after I saw the Matrix back in 1999, which was basically remembering my reaction when I was studying Buddhism years ago: IE If this reality is an illusion, how do I know the reality Buddhism teaches is any more real (and by extension how do I know Nirvana is real)? Granted I grew up reading Philip K. Dick, so I'm might be somewhat inclined to trains of thought like that.

[Gilles V]

It's possible that Neo is still in a Matrix at the end of the film and that he didn't know it. But why did stopping those Sentinels knock out Neo then? Neo didn't have any problems with using his powers in the Matrix before?

The first thing that I was thinking at that moment was that Neo now also had some of that power outside the Matrix (somehow) and that his mind wasn't ready to use it yet.

But question I want to get answered more than that is "Who's the guy lying next to Neo at the end of the film and what's his importance in all this?" The guy is probably a spy working for the architect... hmmmm... maybe the architect knows that this Neo might be the first Neo who will actually succeed in liberating all humans. And then this guy has the job to stop Neo in the conventional way, in the place where Neo is just an other human being, vulnerable like any other.

Anyway, good thread!

[thegreatimposter]

Isn't "that guy" agent Smith? (He copied himself early into the film and transfered out of the matrix.)

I think it's a matter of believing in oneself. In the first movie, when he's training with Morpheus, Neo gets out of breath, and Morpheus tells him that's in his mind. It could be a similar scenario here. Or this sub-Matrix works somewhat differently from the Matrix Neo is used to being able to control.

Yeah, I remember that scene now. I guess I will have to watch Matrix Reloaded a second time.

[Kill Cavalry]

yeah, he was Smith, which is why it stinks that the film ended right there!

[Gilles V]

The film looked exciting (but wasn't) with lots of cool action scenes but nothing "WOW".
The story is intriguing but you get the feeling that it's also forced. Not good.
The first Matrix had a much better story and the action scenes there had a real purpose.

The "Lord of the Rings" trilogy is much more exciting and better in every way. Lot's of "WOW" scenes in Fellowship and Two Towers. In my opinion!

Please forgive me for saying this. ;)

[swords]

Lord of the Rings? Hmmm, I just got a idea.

Concerning the Question

I was confused too, however, I believe he was knocked out because it was a new program, hence, even Bane(Smith) was put into a coma despite his power in the Matrix. Thats why, its supposed to be assumed the 'real world' is another program set up by the machines.(so technically, its not the Matrix, so Neo wasn't used to this 'real world'program, perhaps the side effects of using his 'power' causes comas).

Also agreed, this ending was very adrupt. I wasn't antipating this then all of a sudden, to be concluded! Wow, throw me a frickin bone(Dr.Evil), I want more.

I think I just became a Matrix junkie.:cool:

Has anyone else noticed that the premise remarkably follow a darker more stylistic film called

Dark City?

[intergamer]

something screwed up here, it kept rejecting my post, so the post that this was supposed to be is now the next comment on this thread

[Edited by swords on 05-27-2003 at 08:13 pm]

I've been saying this all along. See, Smith could not have gotten into Zion if it was a real world, since Smith is still a program. Indeed, the idea of anybody going through a phone line into the real world from a program seems a little suspect. So Zion really is a program too.
Also, remember when they got knocked out at the end? That was from one of those electromagnetic pulse things (smith set it off when everyone was supposed to wait). Hmm, everybody died from it, except for the machines (metallic things) that got knocked out or immobolized. AND except for Agent Smith in the body of the other guy, and Neo...hmm, see so they are both machines or programs or something.

Also, remember the architect? He showed all those pictures on the wall. I'm assuming that those are supposed to be previous Neos (from earlier matrices/matrixes). Well, if Neo in the matrix is modeled after a real human being (the one on Zion), and the one in Zion is not just another program too (since Zion is really a program), then why do they all look the same? You don't get two real world people that look identical.

Also, look at the Revolutions trailers - Neo and others are doing some pretty fancy stunts, as far as I can see, in Zion. Which doesn't make sense unless Zion is a program.

Now the idea thats explicitly stated is, Agent Smith and Neo exchanged some properties from each other. How is this possible? genetic crossover? I think not. They are both programs, exchanging code. And they retain these crossovers in Zion - so Zion should be a program. The fact that they exist at all in Zion shows that Zion is a program.

Now, the outermost matrix (the one we begin the first movie in) is definitely all code. So Neo was GIVEN his powers to be the one, by the architect and such. Assuming that we can trust what the architect is saying (and I think that the Wachowski brothers mean us to be able to trust him), everything Neo does in the outermost matrix is controlled. Well then, why would they let him free all these people? Someone must know that Zion is fake. Also, Agent Smith is in the "real world"/Zion. I say we can just ignore the program matrix, therefore, especially since all these people have already been "freed". So the question to me is, look at Zion. All this robot crawlers everywhere. If Zion is a program-type-deal too, then where do they come from?

Sorry for the loose stream of consciousness.

Maybe Neo wakes up in his bed (of the beginning of the original movie) and its all a dream. Or the whole thing is some kid playing a computer game of which the plot is movie 1 and 2, and at the end of the movie they get called to dinner, so we don't know what happens (unless we buy the Matrix:trilogy computer game and play through to the end). It'd be good merchandising.

OH, and the question of controlling the robot sentinel things. Of course, this kind of makes sense, if Zion is all a program (or some subroutine like another poster said), and fits with Neo being a program. But I say that he didn't sense them at all. He saw something different, maybe saw that the guy Agent Smith was posing as looked different, or that he himself was a little different since he had some Smith-ness in him if they exchanged. So he paused. <b>He only got knocked out because of the blast that Smith fired that he shouldn't have fired.</b>

Another thought. Take Smith. In Matrix 1 he wishes he were somewhere else, not on our "despicable planet". Hmm. But clearly Smith is a program. So already in the first movie, he knows he can go to the "real world" and so forth. Again, Smith is not a robot, not a human being, but a program (the Matrix people have said this explicitly). At what the members of Zion see as the "real world" still is not the "real world".

[Pale Horse]

No one wanted to comment on the "Dark City" reference. Do we ever learn which world Neo is in?

That movie creeped me out. The Matrix just mildly entertained me.

[Pale Horse]

Matrix is a complete rip off of it.

[Finn]

http://www.pointlesswasteoftime.com/film/resolutions.html

Just read this. It's all explained. :p

[Pale Horse]

In all fairness, my comment about Dark City in no way advocates the extrapolated commentary of the merits/or lack of merits on Matrix.

I am only suggesting that another more stylistic and intriguing film, made prior to, was snubbed in all the hoop-la.

[Short Round]

Rate the three films.

Matrix: 9/10
Matrix Reloaded: 7/10
Matrix Revolutions: 6/10

Overall, I thought the trilogy was OK. The first one is the only one I would consider to be really good.

[oki9Sedo]

Rate the three films.

Matrix: 9/10
Matrix Reloaded: 7/10
Matrix Revolutions: 6/10

Overall, I thought the trilogy was OK. The first one is the only one I would consider to be really good.

The Matrix 8/10
The Matrix Reloaded 6/10
The Matrix Revolutions 5/10

[Katarn07]

The second one was awesome until you see part 3. If part 3 had been stronger, part 2 would still be good.

Matrix 10/10
Matrix Reloaded 7/10
Matrix Revolutions 4/10

[Bullwhip]

They all get a 0 from me. I can't stand them.

[ResidentAlien]

The Matrix - 3


Never bothered with the others--the first one was awful enough. Ugh. Damn no-talent hack Wachowski Brothers. And that awful V for Vendetta! Ugh. :mad:

I had an English professor two semesters back who I had a great deal of respect for. But she had us write our final paper for the semester comparing The Count of Monte Cristo with the V for Vendetta film. Naturally mine ended up being quite the rant...

What a way to end the semester. Bah.

[ClintonHammond]

Matrix... 9.8/10 (It's a BEST EVER movie)
Matrix 2... 4/10
Matrix 3... 3/10

Animatrix... 10/10

[Eric Solo]

I'm with katarn07.

The car chase in the second one was pretty awesome. The third one was like Superman 4. I just try to forget I saw it.

[Niteshade007]

I've honestly only seen part of the first one. I know, it's sad, because the first one at least seems to be quite revered.

[Short Round]

Yeah, the third was terrible compared to the first one. The only thing I liked about it was the final fight between Neo and Smith.

[Vendetta08]

The first is one of the best cyber punk/sci-fi type films...eva!

The last two were terrible. There's only one scene I even like in the third one.

[HovitosKing]

The Matrix: 8.5/10

Reloaded and Revolutions: two reasons why this trilogy isn't considered a classic film trilogy (a la Indiana Jones, Star Wars) and has been mostly forgotten
