Hmm this thread did not explode into a Matrix discussion as I like to see happen. I guess the time of those movies has long past. Hard to believe the first one is more than ten years old. The Matrix is now older now than Batman 1989 was when The Matrix came out. That blows my mind. Funny, in my opinion, you still don't see effects looking better than they did in Reloaded and Revolutions. The volume and density of the effects in the Zion battle are unbelievable.

I think it's almost criminal the way the first movie could have taken a place alongside Star Wars as the globe's real shared modern mythology of choice. A piece of pop culture so accessible yet profound at the same time, that was successfully designed to give satisfying takes on many different levels. A fucking movie that changed the way people looked at the world around them by having actual ideas behind the fury onscreen. And then they make the sequels and it's like mitichlorians plus Jar Jar Binks to the nth power. Still some awesome shit in the sequels between pure action and the ideas that were so overpackaged. I mean damn were they hard to love with all the nonsense and goofiness (Morpheus' speech, lol).
