You face planted with your position regarding evil forgetting that even the Oracle used that word to describe Agent Smith and then you sat on the sidelines for six days until someone posted something you could hop all over and feel smug about. Your analysis of these films is truly next level. You are the best. Around.

I merely pointed out the ambiguity of using the word evil to describe something that a machine does. My philosophy was sound. It needed no further retort. That and I went on Spring Break and didn't feel like given long explanations from my phone. But please continue pretending that you're adding something to the discussion.

Reloaded down. Revolutions to go. Nayemy's ship gets blown up. Her crew dies in the matrix, but nayemy lives long enough to blow up the power plant? Also the architect tells neo the matrix is older than he thinks. He sats this matrix is the 6th version and that zion has been destroyed 5 times. Basically they are in a second matrix?

Less than an hour into this trainwreck. Yet another rave, french dude can keep neo hostage but has lousy security for himself? Nayemey survived? Wtf? The fucking ship blew up with her still in the matrix. There is no fucking way she escaped. Fucking film is terrible.

Yeah that's pretty much what happens whenever I try watch Revolutions. I redid Matrix + Reloaded last week, but only made it 45 min or so into the 3rd. Still, I think the first one stands up pretty well by itself, and surprisingly, I found Animatrix (which I've never watched before) fairly interesting, even though I usually don't like anime.
did you miss the last 10 pages where we talked about the 2nd matrix layer hypothesis ? the same hypothesis that was denied by the horrible 3rd movie
Shutting it off after the first movie ends and having the other two surgically extracted from your memory is really the only way to go.

I recently watched Cloud Atlas, not a very good movie but if you really, really liked the first Matrix it might be worth a watch. There was some really interesting stuff with replicants and a post-apocalyptic world, but it was pretty short and deliberately obtuse, I think to not draw too many comparison to the Matrix.

you mean the same discussion i was a part of? no, i didnt miss that. was reaffirming that they definitely were going for a 2nd matrix storyline even without the neo force blast at the end.
ah ok. Reloaded is probably one of the greatest trolling in the history of cinema
The other option is they made a massive script u-turn after reloaded was done. Didnt they made them together like LotR ?

From what I remember Carrie Ann Moss looked way older and worse to me at end of Trilogy than at the beginning. Or maybe I am remembering wrong. She seems all old and wrinkly now and even when they first filmed Matrix and everyone thought she was sexy as hell in that skin tight suit, wasn't she already pretty old? Or is my milf porn getting me all mixed up on ages now?
EDIT - This comment from left field was meant as a uninformed guess about whether they filmed the second two right after one another...and even in relation to that question, it still makes no sense. I be crazy.

Pretty sure she had pumped out a kid right before filming. Gaining weight during pregnancy and then losing it will leave you looking like that sometimes.
