I liked the intense philosophy in that movie.

Armageddon was the worst movie in the last five years. That movie made me nauscious.

YEAH!!! Where are the rest of you Armageddon haters? I know you are out there!

PS - Who else thinks Liv Tyler is WAY overrated? Did anyone else see Stealing Beauty? She is a terrible actress! If she wasn't Steve Tyler's daughter she would be working at Mervyn's now.

Let's not get into Armageddon. There's an old history about that movie with some of us--I was just joking around about it in reference to that.

Okay. What is your opinion of Liv?

She's all right. Nothing special. But certainly not horrible. Stealing Beauty--she's not so bad in that one. Of course it helps that it was directed by Bertolucci...

Saw MAtrix Deaux last night.

Comments:

Thought the love scene/dancing/orgy was filler mat'l and seemed irrelevant and contrived.

- When in the beginning Neo (anagram for "One") flies away. He then goes into an apartment and looks around. Did i miss something? Why did he go there, what was he looking for?

- Why do the ships have to go outside of Zion to connect into the Matrix?

- The fight scene w/Neo & the Smiths looked too much like a video game.
(Great effects though)

- the white haired banshee dudes were pretty cool. Nice to see unique villians.

Persephone was a hottie.

Not sure about your first point, I don't remember him doing that.

On the second point, they don't have to LEAVE Zion, they just have to get to broadcast depth in order to broadcast their pirate signal into the Matrix,

Sort of like a submarine...they can't really send and receive signals a mile down, so they have to surface if they want to, or at least get closer to the surface.

The apartment was in the first film--it was where he originally went to see the Oracle.

No, it was in the beginning of the 2nd one. It is just before the group leaves for Zion.

Neo jumps up and flies away and then he comes flying down after some time and looks around an apartment. Next scene shows the group loading up into the vehicle.

He was asking where that apartment was from. It was from the first movie when Neo first visits the Oracle--you know, the one where the kid bent the spoon.

Watched this last night.

Very good movie. Even "She Who Must Be Obeyed" liked it :)

The Grammicon Clerics were serious bad asses.
