Instead of putting up with this whole matrix crap why can't the machines simply lobotomize and sedate every human they harvest so that they'll be mindless zombies err batteries?
Or better yet why not make batteries out of deer or cows? Hmmm seems to me like they would be much more compliant and less of a risk.

that's what i wondered in the first one. they explain it by us "waking up" but, i don't see how that would stop them harvesting our biological energy.
maybe they feed on the strife and struggle of the human condition? if so, they be getting a good fucking meal from me!

Yes, the movie was too filled with all those unnecessary action scenes. And that stupid tribal dance and Morpheus addressing the nation speech were totally uncalled for. It would have been better if they had focused more on the plot development instead of all that fighting.
the fight with the "protector" of the oracle was so stupid. "u can not truly know someone without fighting them." i almost felt like walking out because the first half hour is so ridiculous and unnessessary

you know, sometimes things just don't fit with each other and having a sex scene in the matrix is like having a deep philosophical scene in a porno movie. it was just stupid.
i disagree. i liked it!

Hahaha yea ... I think this film was "driven" to show off its special effects as opposed to the first film where the special effects revolved around the plot. I can just imagine the director scratching his head thinking "now how can we fit in this action sequence" Oh well, still a great movie imo

werd. exactly!
i guess i'm not the only one who noticed that almost every single cool special effect from the first movie that the audience liked was included in the second movie? the ripple effect, kung-fu, flying, bullet time, slow-mo, etc.......

OK! Just back from seeing it and its great yea...
BUT
I think the trailer ruined it for me, it showed off most of the fight scenes , so it wasnt really much of a surprise for me.
I wasnt totally blown away like when i seen the first one either
I was expecting ALOT more to tell u the truth.
Still a great film but i guess i was expecting something totally new
i loved the fight scene where neo takes on 100 smith agents... now that was sex!!
Hope the third one is better than the 1st and 2nd combined together This time im not watching the trailer for it though lol

Just got back from the movie and I can say this is a really crappy movie....
Okay the specials where cool and some scenes were too but overall this movie bored the shit out of me and couldn't keep my attention.
I was happy the movie ended, so I could go home
