I saw the matrix-spoilers

I thought this movie was awesome. I loved the whole trilogy in general.

It had everything I could want in a movie:

-Action
-A touch of romance
-A compelling plot (though not exactly clear)

The thing I loved the move about this movie was the fact that it made me think. What is going to happen next? Why did that just happen? How are these two things connected? I love movies that actually make you think. I can tell you that in two years, I will still remember these movies and think: how/why did that happen?

Personally, I'm not a real big fan about movies that are just so overloaded with action that you sit just sit there after the movie and say, "Well that was cool, what are we gonna do for the rest of the night?" Well, don't get me wrong, I guess I do like those kind of movies, because they are cool, but with a movie like The Matrix you leave the theatre with just a little more wonder/amazement/curiosity/religion or whatever you get out of the movie.

A lot of my friends that saw it said that they didn't really like it. I suspect that they are saying that just because it didn't end how they wanted it to, or that it didn't end answering all your questions. WELL TOO BAD!!! Get used to it! I don't wanna hear you bitch and moan about how your questions were unanswered, or how the love scenes were ghey, or how it didn't end the way you wanted to.

*OFF TOPIC*
What really bothers me is how people can say that The Lord of the Rings movies suck ass. THey are some of the best movies I have every seen. I beleive that FotR and TTT have been voted onto the IMD top ten movies of all time list.
I know a lot of people that say that they suck becuase they didn't include such-and-such scene from the book, or such-and-such character wasn't in the movie. God damnit people, the books were great and they had a lot of details. No movie, especially these, could get all of the detail out of the book into the movie. JUST LOOK past the minor omitences and just admit they are very good movies, because they are just that, great movies.

Hod Hamnit, now I'm all pissed off. I gotta get to sleep.

I just got back from the theater. I'm really tired so I'll chime in with my opinion later.

It's funny how people try to analyse movies like they were big shot hollywood critics, eh, strangler?

Anyways, if you would actually watch the movie, and let yourself into it, instead of looking at everything else around and behind it, you would enjoy much more.

Yes the acting is kind of dull, but I think it's fits the context perfectly. Neo and trin, knew they were going to die, so don't expect them to be all romantic and stuff.

I don't know why the 1st episode was so good. It was all the same actors after all.

the first lord of the rings is in my top 5 movies, but the second one is a really big dissappointment for me. of course nothing like the book, the first movie was almost identicle to the book. they added stupid things, and they removed important things

Might as well chim in here while I'm around.

It seems to me that many of you went into the movie wanting to like it no matter what, and the fact of the matter is you did. No matter if you forced yourself to or you geniunely liked it. I don't know.

I do think that Null and Strangler looked at a movie in a more, don't want to say objective minor, but I guess they looked at the film for it's own merit before applying it to the trilogy.

As a side note, has nothing to do with the rest of this, I recently purchased American Pyscho and that is one bad ass movie. I recommend any one to see it.

And a final note, isn't Justin gone yet?
