All I can say is, if I went and saw Kill Bill, I wouldn’t be able to even think about seeing another movie until I saw Kill Bill again. I’d feel like, 'That’s a movie like sex. That’s a movie like drugs,' you know? 'I can’t even think of another girl until I’ve had another piece of that pussy. I’ve got to get high on that drug again, like, tomorrow.'" *

I should point out that my girlfriend will have typed "Itás" because she is currently in Italy, and the ' key, which we already keep in a strange place, will be replaced by a "Grammar Strafe Modifier" key. Also, Teh is funny, and meant.

And I'm oh-so-sorry for enjoying portions of a game I thought could've been done very well. There were many enjoyable parts, and if you can get past the insti-deaths and errors, there is a good game there straining to get out.

Yeah, I like the way Straw put it: They should've finished the game.

Gee, I more and more do not want to watch this film.

I just saw "Kill Bill" and noted how much better fight scenes are when you use real actors instead of CGI avatars. There's a many on one fight scene towards the end that seems to be a big "fuck you" from Quentin to the Wachowskies - same idea but way better choreography and filming.

I liked the concept of the first Matrix but even that film wasn't really original visually. Several action scenes and lots of visual cues seemed to be lifted from Blade which came out earlier.

That game was SO not finished.

And it had Powerade machines in it, for fuck's sake!!

I've been cut apart for my opinions on The Matrix Reloaded on forums far harsher than this one, believe me. At least I wasnt stupid enough to like the videogame *cough*LEX*cough*.

I actually noticed tha date November 5th on an Italian advert today and thought I was seeing things. Long as itàs better than Reloaded, I honestly don't care.

I don't think you can really call teh Matrix Reloaded a bad film. It carries such an effortless cool that watching it is a pleasure, no matter what the hell is actually going on. Same wth the Matrix in general, I can't decide whether anyhting Matrixo is good or not because I always enjoy watching it, whatever it is, because of its sheer, effortless style.

As far as I can tell, Matrix was meant to be a series the whole time. And I, personally, quite liked Matrix Reloaded. But I don't want to get into that again.

Yeah, with Matrix it was painfully obvious that they had maybe one and a quarter movies' worth of interesting ideas.

Was Matrix even supposed to originally be a trilogy? Or was that something that just kind of happened once it became a huge smash hit?

I think X-Men somehow wound up being my franchise of choice out of this whole sudden "genre" explosion.

Two Towers sucked.

However, nothing in the history of movie picture sequels could ever prepare anyone for the incredibly sucking that Matrix Reloaded did, does, and will do for all of eternity. It makes the ability of a black hole to exert so much suction (suction, gravity, same thing) that it can bend light seem tame in comparison.

Not only that, "The Black Hole" is a better movie than "Matrix Reloaded."

I enjoyed The Matrix. I was eagerly looking forward to Matrix Reloaded. Then the reviews started coming in, and I got worried. Then I watched it, and it was far, far worse than I could have ever imagined.

I don't believe that I've met a single person who has not expressed disappointment and disdain for that turd.

Me? Excited about Revolutions? Not any more.

For Star Trek fans, imagine if Star Trek 2 came out, then "Star Trek: The Motion Picture" - imagine your disappointment. Multiply that by about 150 times, and that's how millions of Matrix fans felt.

(The "Animatrix" stuff is pretty bad, too.)

WARNING! THREAD HIJACK IN PROGRESS!

If my life ends before I see Return of the King, I am willing myself back on the planet as a ghost in order to possess someone else and catch it through their eyes.

Matrix: Revolutions is supposed to be out in theaters some time this November. Kickin' ass, yo.
