Mediocre movie? Bahahahahahahahahahaha.

If it was just a medocre movie it wouldn't be nominated for many many awards, including best picture, which lots of people think it will win. What have any of the matrix movies ever been nominated for? best special effects? Is the matrix: revolutions nominated for any awards? doubtful. If it is, it isn't picture of the year.

you complain matrix reloaded had no story ..what about the two towers , it was one huge fight scene. nothing more. very boring. and look at all the other crap movies that get awards. crap like chicago and the pianist. in the bedroom? yea LOTR is on up there with them. The Marix was more than special affects. you just couldnt realise it was trying to be a little different..so what if it didnt do what everyone thought it was gona do. they would do things and let the viewer figure it out instead of giving you a straight answer which was one of the best thing about all the matrix movies. Look at how much revolutions can make a person think? Matrix movies wont appeal to everyone. it only apeals to thos who like to think about a movie after they leave the theater. i know once i seen the two towers i thought that it was pretty good, but didnt think one more thing about it after i left the theater..after i seen revolutions. my mind was boggled and working for days and days afterwards. Even to this day im still thinking about all thats happened. So much information was given on all three movies. I do not watch the matrix movies for special effects. there is a story there, but must people want the story spoonfed to them. the Matrix is like this......"something happens" then you figure out the reason why it happened by listning to the clues they give you..if you dont like doing that then you will hate the Matrix movies.

If you think TTT had no story, you need to go re-watch it. Tru, it didn't have as much story as the first because it was building up to the three and a half hour long ROTK which has a **** load of story. Character developmetn. Another thing LOTR is strong in, and the matrix lacks. Acting, yet another thing. Only relying on special effects when they absolutely need it, add that to the list. Should I go on? Face it, the matrix turned into what the SW prequal movies are: CGI wondefests.

After ROTK comes out, I'm gonna make a thread comparing the Matrix Trilogy, the LOTR trilogy, and ummm another trilogy....dunno what tho........

*Voltron* · 12-15-2003, 09:24 PM

Hey, it would have been better if the part of Neo was played by a wooden board with a mean face painted on it

Talk about story! Writing of this calibur deservesa Pulitzer.

**ThirdMarioBro** · 12-15-2003, 09:55 PM

Star Wars trilogy could be the third to compare.....

*JameO* · 12-15-2003, 10:11 PM

I have to work all this week.

But as soon as I get a chance I will be there to watch it! I loved the first 2 movies and the third one will be even better. But EZ I must say. You aren't talking proper here. As everyone else has said it is a great movie. Ok you don't have to like it but please realize that it is really well done and deserves all those awards!

One Radical Dude · 12-15-2003, 10:19 PM

Am I the only one that liked TTT over FOTR?

*The Defibrillator* · 12-15-2003, 10:26 PM

Nope. TTT had great fight scenes, but I like the in depth storyline of FotR.

so are you LOTR fans ready? i know i am!!!!

Yep, I'm ready. I've had my ticket for about a week for the Tuesday Midnight showing. Just 1 more day is all I have to wait...

EZweasel · 12-15-2003, 11:10 PM

the Matrix movies are just more my type of movie and acting also. i love keanu reeves. he's like one of my top favorite acotrs along with johnny depp and arnold. like ive always said. it is not how real you can act its how you you are different..same with music. most people dont like music that has alot of talent but still has a sucky sound. they want originality. and these 3 stars deliver it for me. So dont tell me who can act and who cant please. I have an opinion on what a good actor is and so do you. another thing is i do like a few characters from LOTR ALOT..including Golum,treebeard, and gandolph. i love those guys. i have even bought action figures from the LOTR trilogies. its just TTT did not deliver for me like fellowship did. i will watch them all again one day though.

Why the hell do you feel the need to go in to every thread about something you don't like to start a flame war??

Flame Wars are getting out of hand around here, and I'm getting real sick of it.

I am doing the midnight viewing on Tuesday, as well. It's gonna be a blast with so many people rocking the movie theater until almost four in the morning! Movies are always a lot more fun to see when there's a zillion people jam-packed in the theater with you.

I am not a hardcore fan, but I will admit that I have been waiting for this third movie to come out ever since I finished watching the second one.

Yeah, something needs to be done about that.

**Machias Banshee** · 12-15-2003, 11:27 PM

I do believe we have a problem...

Okay, everyone, we dont need any sparks flying about. EZ, I know you dont like the movies, but the best thing is just to not post in these kinds of threads.

We've had enough flame wars for a couple boards...

Flame wars are no fun, and thanks EZ for apologizing. I like people when they can take responsibility for their actions.
