damn it i was supposed 2 go 2day but then at the last second things changed...FUCK!!

It sucked, it sucked, it sucked. The fight scenes were amazing. Everything else was complete and absolute drek. Absolutely no logical plot progression, retarded character interaction, and an overall lack of substance. Plus, if you really analyze how the movie moves along, it is almost like the Wachowski brothers wanted to remake Return of the Jedi. It follows Jedi almost scene for scene. What a horrible conclusion to what could have been an epic trilogy.

USMC04 2003-11-06 07:19 AM

it was real good...i need to see it again to understand all of it but it is tight.

Chruser 2003-11-06 08:00 AM

Probably gonna see it tomorrow. To quote a reviewer from Rolling Stone; "It sucks".

Rurouni Storm 2003-11-06 08:46 AM

It didn't make sense at all. They use reloaded to introduce all these new questions, then they don't even answer most of them.

Medieval Bob 2003-11-06 08:57 AM

(What questions did they introduce withholding answers? - PM if plot spoiler.)

I was dissapointed. I was hoping for a lot more in the area of fight coordination. I was hoping for a lot more from Seraph as well, since he seemed to be a bad-ass motha.

The "scene" with Trinity and Neo seemed to drag on and on as well, which really slowed the movie. I was impressed by the representation of the machines: the complexity, the sheer mass, etc.

It could have been a lot better I think, but to anyone who has seen the first two, go ahead and spend your $2-10. I figure you need to find out what happens.

Rurouni Storm 2003-11-06 10:20 AM

Highlight to view
How exactly did Neo destroy the Sentinels with his mind? Are we supposed to believe that his real world self is now some kind of super human?

How could he see when he was blind?

The big disappointment is that the whole trilogy's plot is useless now, as it basically sets up the cycle to be repeated again.


BTW, this forum needs a real spoiler tag.

It does, and now this post uses it

Medieval Bob 2003-11-06 02:58 PM

He's the one, so he can do all that stuff.

He was using the force, of course.

Kuja`s #1 2003-11-06 03:10 PM

I don't get it mb.

I don't buy it. Outside the Matrix, he's a weak human.

Sovereign 2003-11-06 10:16 PM

I just saw it. Good movie, shitty ending. Not a must see but a very good time waster if you are bored.

Raziel 2003-11-06 10:49 PM

Awful ending. And the thing that really aggrivates me about this movie is that one must play and beat a sub-standard action game in order to fully understand the plot. Like I said, the fight scenes were awesome. The plot was terrible.

...and it followed Jedi step for step.

J_iceman 2003-11-07 08:44 AM

wait, so that means you GOT to see animatrix and play the matrix game to actually understand the movie????

you thnk the move revolution would have a bad ending so that there MIGHT be a matrix 4.....after revolution......well revalation??? ( i dont know, im playing the bad guy here)

quikspy67 2003-11-07 08:45 AM

I might see it this saturday! =D

J_iceman 2003-11-07 08:50 AM

i was suppose to watch it yesterday but it ws already 1 in the morning and i had to wake up early today :-( and after reading this thread ....well i guess i'll just wait till it goes to dvd!!
anyways i cant even watch it anymore because i have to work close to 19 hours a day for the next 3 months :-(

so do you guys REALLY think its not worth BUYING this dvd??

ps. this REALLY messed up my week, knowing matrix:revolution is NOT what it seems

Actually, I think they did the ending this way so that they could market the upcoming Matrix MMORPG :rolleyes:

Doofus_AW 2003-11-07 02:47 PM

I am seeing it tonight, have read some reviews which hated it and some that loved it.

Jessifer 2003-11-07 02:49 PM

Woo! Just got back from seeing it. I thought the movie was awesome. The fight scenes were great.

But the ending was definately lacking in quality. Is it just me or did they leave it open for more movies?

And during the scene in the bar, where Seraph, Trin, and Morpheus were walking in with the guns, did anyone else catch the girl who was getting her nipples pinched, right in front of the camera? It was only for a short moment, but I could have sworn I saw nippage. Maybe I saw wrong. I dunno.

ask_rabber 2003-11-07 03:40 PM

Only thing that I have against the entire Matrix trilogy is Neo representing Jesus. You can clearly tell by the way he sacrifices himself for the people and the angel wings he had in a part. Most people I know didn't notice them, but it was when The Machine was plugging him into the matrix and it went in neovision, with the light and what not, the cords just so happened to look like wings.

The fight scenes were pretty neat I'd say. The scene with the APUs was DAMN cool. The commander of them had no fear, just sat there and let them cut his face up. I liked how the swarm of sentinels never got smaller, even though they just rained down.

Not saying it's the best movie I've seen, but I definitely enjoyed it.

-Spector- 2003-11-07 04:13 PM

I saw the nipplage! lol, oh and what ask_rabber said, i know what u mean by the jesus thing. I was like wtf but my dad was pretty pissed lol. He comes up to me and hes like, "It almost seemed as if they were mocking christianity" yeah, i enjoyed the first 2, but the third one was....odd

Jessifer 2003-11-07 05:20 PM

Wasn't it another girl pinching the girls nipples? o.O I was like "WOAH! Kinky!" I dunno if any of my friends caught it. I don't think they did.

Chruser 2003-11-07 07:02 PM

I liked the movie, no doubt about that. WW gave me some arguments for why the entire story could be crammed into a single 30-minute television episode, but I don't really agree with him on that. It's all a matter of trying to determine what's important and what's not. I'm sure I could cut Romeo and Juliet down into a few minutes of screenplay by just rocketing through the story, keeping all the less essential poetry out of the game. It's kind of like the matrix series without any special effects and nice battle scenes, isn't it?

Anyway, I don't agree that the ending was "kind of lame" either. It seemed like a perfectly worthy ending to a great series of films.

Tai 2003-11-07 07:15 PM

I personally thought they left the ending open for fanfic, as you know there's going to be *alot* of it. That, and if it builds up enough they might have a story later to make another freakin movie with.

You bet your ass that's what it was.

And if you put it that way Spector, as it's mocking christianity, I guess I'm ok with that.

It was made for the MMORPG.

ask_rabber 2003-11-07 10:53 PM

According to Laurence Fishburne (Morpheus) who was on Conan the other night, he said ther is absolutely no sequel to it. He added that if they somehow decided to change their minds and there is a sequel he won't be starring in it, 6 years was enough for him.

i bet this scen will be cut off from dvd version :-(

Chruser 2003-11-08 03:54 AM

Okay, why would Neo really return as the Oracle said? Trinity is dead, and he has no reason to come back. He has completed his task on earth. And what about the machines? Clearly, they don't want another war due to too great losses. It was Neo's (see "Jesus") deal with the machines, to end the war if he could defeat Smith. He was like his own religion to everybody, and everyone believed in him in the end.

About Neo's EMP, I believe it was answered in the movie. He had a connection with the source after visiting the creator in Reloaded, so he could blow things up in the machine world as well, knowing they weren't truly real either. What isn't real can be controlled.

Penny_Bags 2003-11-08 02:15 PM

I love it how people say shit like "What the fuck? How did Neo do that in the 'Real World'. It is fucking fiction for god sakes. People expect too much and delve to deep into technical things, when really you should just sit back and enjoy it. However... in this specific case there probably is a way to explain that he did that, in fact I am sure that there is. However, I just wanted to point out that people are trying to make sense of that part, yet they don't question the fact that there is a Matrix and all sorts of people plugged into it.

Nipplage was there.

RoboticSilence 2003-11-08 09:35 PM

And why would they cut out the nipplage in the DVD when the movie is rated R and they could have full frontal nudity if they wanted?

Also, I don't know if you guys caught it but:
Smith refers to the Oracle as "mother" in the scene where he takes her over... for some reason I found this very strange and I have my thoughts but I'd like to here yours.

J_iceman 2003-11-09 03:27 AM

delete....


sorry

zagggon 2003-11-09 11:15 AM

Well after looking over this thread I have decided to go see it not because it is a good movie but because If I dont ill have to go play a gay ass 9 holes of golf, and this should entertain me more than my brother missing the golfball five times in a row.

Kuja`s #1 2003-11-09 07:28 PM

All I can say is "eh."

RoboticSilence 2003-11-09 07:48 PM

Then how were you able to say all those other words setting it up?
