Just got back from seeing The Matrix Reloaded, what a crap film.
Was expecting so much more but there was nothing good about it ( except for the motorbike chase )

Well I saw the first bit last night (never seen it before) and I loved that, so I hope the sequel is good.

Just one question - why did they keep going back into the matrix when they were likely to get killed? That was the one bit I didn't follow, although admittedly I kept popping into the forums in the ad breaks!

Actually it suddenly occurs to me that the forums are a bit like the matrix - an alternative reality!

FR - they kept going back in because they are trying to free the human race from slavery

Yeah, I know that bit, but how could they do that in an artificial reality?

Or were they going to get people out one by one like they did with Neo? All seems a bit slow - why not just try and destroy the pod bits where the inert humans were 'living'?

Fruity.
why do you have to complicate things. the first one is just a damn good movie, in fact one of the few i have been to the cinema more than once to see.

I think maybe i was just expecting far too much, but they do seem to have gone too far in the action scenes and there is this really weird clubby type bit that goes on for something like 10 minutes, more like an orgy ? what were they thinking !

Fruity, the reason they go into the matrix the first time is to see Neo. The second time they go in is to see the Oracle!!.

RE: Matrix Reloaded: I thought it was ace, a little bit complicated in parts, but i reckon all will be revealed in the end!!

But that just my opinion!

Ok - I'm going to watch it back and see if I get that. I didn't realise the Oracle was in the Matrix though!

BTW Bangkokbetty - what's the pic about - it looks like one person standing next to someone about a yard taller!

Actually I got the bit about going in to get Neo, I just wasn't sure the last time what they went in for. Since Morpheus was captured by the Sentinels, why not just unplug him from the Matrix? Problem solved n'est pas?

Fruity, you just couldnt be unplugged from the matrix, you had to get out via a "hard line" ( part of the matrix rules, dont ask me why ) just unplugging him would have killed him

well I still want to watch it!
Can't believe that teh Matrix 3 is out so soon after it!
Well I don't go to the cinema often so this looks like a fine excuse to me!!

2 & 3 are two parts to the same story, leave it too long and people forget alot of the first part

I didnt mean to say to anyone dont go and see it, just dont expect as much from this as the first movie, when 3 comes out i will no doubt go and see it
