Join Me or Die
When "Matrix" came out I was quietly convinced that it does not take much to please most people. It was a good film though. It was also self contained, and needed no further "story" added to it.
When "Reloaded" came out, it became immediately and blatantly obvious that the Wachowski brothers cannot provide what I need from a movie. They also managed to completely stop me from caring about any of the characters. In fact I ended up hating half of them.
Therefore I am boycotting "Revolutions". I don't even want to see it.
Join me or die.
(Actually, you don't have to join me and if you don't, it's unlikely you will die as a consequence. I just wondered how widespread this view is )

Re: Join Me or Die
I liked The Matrix very much. Though it didn't take a genius to figure out that a good sequel could not be made, let alone two good sequels.
This was confirmed when I saw the second film, it was pretty average.
I'll probably still see the third one even though I doubt whether I'll enjoy it. I guess mainly to see how they decide to end it.

I was going to do that, then I decided "I'm not their cow-bitch waiting to be milked".

Re: Join Me or Die
It doesn't cost much, and is sure to be more entertaining than reading threads like these.

A good point with only one fatal drawback.
There's plenty I can do for free and with minimal effort that's more entertaining than both.

Oh to be young and hormonally out of control again.

Re: Join Me or Die
I haven't even seen Reloaded, it was boring enough listening to friends trying to justify that it wasn't actually crap and that they just needed to see it again to understand it
I might take a look when it comes to terrestrial TV, but by then I'll care even less than I do now...

I got dragged to see that despite my aversion to Tarrantino.
It's very entertaining, if nothing else.
