Quote:People were "expecting" something and their expectations weren't fulfilled.
Personally, I was expecting halfway decent Sci-Fi that actually made some sense. *Big* letdown in that department. For the first movie ok, I can use suspension of desbelif so that hyper-inteligent supercomputers are not willing to lobotomize their power sources so that they will never rise up against them, or any other senarios that would essentially mean that there is no movie.
But comon! Heres an idea: get actors who actually show emotion, get a plot that was wasn't rejected by Gainax for being too "out there", and use some visual effects that haven't been done to death since the first movie came out.
Neo is suppost to be a virtual god inside of the matrix, able to bend it to his will. Where are the interesting uses of every part of his environment!? If I wanted to see more Kung-Fu, Id rent Street Fighter(not the video game movie) or Crippled Master, or Master of the Flying Gillotuine.
Oh hey, and Trinity? Do you think she could have dropped the clinical detatchment when she was DYING IN THE ARMS OF THE MAN SHE LOVED?! I mean is that too impossible to even suggest? Im sorry, but if I wanted too watch people who have no idea how to act, I'd go and hang out at the V:tM LARP over at UCF.
Plot for the first movie: good, humans against machines, battle for survival, all is groovy. Second and Third: bad, machines against machines, mental control over machines in the real world, attempt at order/chaos duoality that really didnt work. In all I just think they were going for something that was *way* too deep than it needed to be, and it really showed.
Oh, and I believe this has been said somewhere before, but if Zion is able to keep and maintain "uber" technology and high-yeild munitions, why cant they get a textiles factory working? Is it too much of a stretch to have an entire population in clothes that werent all torn and scraggly?
Bah, they should have just left it off at the first movie, leaving it open to interpritation by the audience rather than going in and doing what they did.
