I saw the movie last night. Some of you will like it and some are going to talk shit about it. I liked it. Alot of dialogue and mystery so you have to pay attention and think. I have to see it again, so I can understand it more.

I got to check out some of the animatrix. It's a series which prequels the 1st movie. Tells the conditions leading to the machines taking over. It's hot. Not for kids. Supposedly a DVD of the series is coming out in the Fall.

Look out for that when you get a chance.

if so, it was DOPE!!!! WOW!!!I didn't see it as a trailer. It was on a website (which I can't remember). I got to see four 9 minute clips. They were all hot.

The first clip showed how robots were first made to serve man but man treated them like sh*t. So one robot killed it's "master". The robot went on trial, was found guilty and the gov. ordered that specific line of robot destroyed. People went crazy and started "killing" all robots. And that's when all hell broke loose...

I heard about the Revolutions trailer today, but I saw the movie last night.

Gotta go again!

I dug it, but now I gotta watch the Animatrix and play the video game as well.

Nicholas

The animatrix was very cool, especially as if youve watched any anime over the last ten years, you get excited whe you recognise the various peoples styles.

how did I see it already... actually I have it on my hard drive at home...

seeing the film in 2 hours 49mins

saw the trailer at the end - it answered many questions that would have been lingering for me...

i think i'm gonna have to see part one again to fully understand part 2, but it was a very intense movie...however, the phony music (such as the heroic chariots of fire stuff playing when the ship came home in the beginning) could've been deleted for a harder hit...

minus the sex scene, children could actually see this...

what did y'all think about paul oakenfold's music in the party scene?

OH...DID Y'ALL SEE CORNELL WEST AS ONE OF THE COUNCIL MEMBERS? I WAS SCREAMING WHEN I SAW THAT - HOW CLEVER.....

and there are many more black folk in this movie than i have seen in a multi-million $ project in a loooooong time....wow!

That film was abso****inglutely amazing. Basically, if you think its going slow for the first 45 minutes, just know you have no need to worry and you will leave the cinema totally satisfied, in a "YOU BASTARDS! HOW CAN I WAIT UNTIL NOVEMBER WHEN YOU LEAVE ME WITH AN ENDING LIKE THAT!" kind of way.

I was (in neo speak) like Woah! when I saw Cornell West and also when they flashed george bush senior on the screen right after hitler. lovely.

very different from the first, just as good.

I reconized the Cornell at first but I didn't realize who it was until later. I think there were alot of blacks in the movie because we tend to rebel and stand up against things that are not right, and against things that opress us.

we saw it last night... movie was GREAT!!!! i felt this huge open-mouth grin spreading across my face during all of the action scenes. we're definitely gonna go see it again. amazing what they did with this flick--see it.

also i'd like to report that yes, house music does survive into the next few hundred years.

what about ray jones, jr? didn't he sound just like a boxer? hee-hee... graemlins/rofl.gif

another thought - wasn't everyone in the "party" scene around the same age?

(how's that? sorry, to you who have yet to see it...)

I couldn't believe it when I saw him! I gotta find out who the other council members were. I coulda sworn I saw Mutaburaka and other scholars there.

My only problem is....why does a WASP always have to be the savior of the world?

Other than that, that shit was of the ****ing chain! hail.gif

Didn't know that. I think these two guys that made this movie are trying to tell something... Also, interesting that most of the main characters are Black as well. I also read an article in the "Suntimes" where Ebert pointed that out, as well as saying that most of the people in the city of Zion appeared to be Black/ people of color... Can't wait to see this film...

I really want to know why Zion's religion is based off of old Nelly videos.

Also why didnt the Architect even talk about his secret chicken recipe???

serious now...

the BIG question is how could neo do that last thing he did and why did he go into a coma?


i think he didnt go into a coma... he woke up!

nicholas, remember after the oracle meeting, mr. smith said that after he and neo had the fight, they became a part of each other? how did that happen, we shall find out soon, but that's why he was able to "feel" those animal things that were created by the likes of mr. smith...

i think he didnt go into a coma... he woke up! Probably beacuse Zion is way down there. As for that last thing, the "joining" has affected him also, he can now control all parts of the matrix (in&out).

In the party scene, nearly everyone is of an ethnicity that isn't mainstream. Even Keanu Reeves isn't white.

I wonder what that is implying. Far too many women and people of minority ethnicity to just be a casting choice thing.
