*No spoilers*

Actually there is nothing to spoil.  The "Matrix: Reloaded" was terrible.  The movie's story was only about 15 minutes.  The rest of the time was fighting, car chasing, and special effects.  Watching it was like being forced to watch my little brother play stupid fighting and car racing video games for hours.  At least the first movie had a plot and there were things to figure out.  This one was all about the movie makers showing off there new special effects.  Don't waste your time or money at the theater.  Wait until you can rent it and fast forward through most of it.


*SPOILERS*

Everybody dies six times.  Not really, but that would have been better.

Actually, I'm going to see the Matrix: Reloaded in an hour. Now that I think about it, I'm looking more forward to Bruce Almighty.

After hearing about the "awesome action" of the Matrix, I finally saw it four years later (that would be two days ago). I witnessed an hour and a half of kickin' plot and ten minutes of guard shooting. Now, this disappointed me. I expected an hour and a half of kickin' action and ten minutes of plot.

Flash forward to yesterday (that would be one day later). I watched Matrix Reloaded and witnessed an hour and a half of kickin' action and ten minutes of plot. Needless to say, it was like wiping my @ss with silk!

Hahahaha! That line was funny from the movie. ...Although, please mind the profanity.
Man, that movie was INTENSE! I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. And the car chase scene--Wow!
The first 15-30 minutes or so were a little slow, but afterwards the plot (and action) picked up. Man, that movie was great! Especially at the climax! Hoo!
IMO, they really should've taken out that..."intimate" scene and the mosh pit-like dancing (alternately switch b/w the two at the same time). That seemed pointless to the story and too much I didn't need (or want) to see. Other than that, it was excellent. Now I need to rewatch the first movie!

"Who cares if it was nothing but fighting..."
People like me, apparently. I don't waste money on stuff like that.

X2 was awesome. And, if I may be so bold, it's better than any Matrix movie could be.

Seriously. From an action standpoint, Matrix may be great. But I have the same views on movies as I do on games. If there's no substance, there's no point in exposing myself to it.

Does The Matrix Reloaded have any of the stuff that matters, like X2 does?
Love, hate, joy, sorrow, allegiance, betrayal, faith, despair, hope, and a message that really counts, not to mention incredibly deep characters?

Heheh...Sorry, I couldn't resist putting that.

I wanna see finding nemo(I don't wanna hear any antidisney remarks either) and star wars episode three(if it ever comes out).

The world would be a much cleaner place if people would eat their own trash.

Actually, although I'm not much of a Disney fan anymore, "Finding Nemo" *does* look funny.

*Two seagulls float in the water. A bubble comes up from behind one of them. The second sees it, "Nice."*
Heheh...I was ROTFL on that one. The PIXAR produced movies ARE funny, IMO.

Star Wars: Ep. 3 will come out. According to the pattern, I'd bet around May 2005.
