The first thing to understand is that for about 2 solid years after the matrix, everyone dressed like neo from the matrix. Everyone.
Beating him in an argument is easy
Cause he’s a strawman
“Winiwy! El!”
You ever look at a Guinness record and go, ‘you know, I could do better…’
58 hours of non-stop kissing. Food and drink is allowed but your lips must maintain contact. You may also use the bathroom, but the judge has to come with you both too
That’s a talent gay men can appreciate. And I do.
Oh shit I did have the 2006 Guinness Book of World Records and I do remember this exact pic. Simpler times
First explain to me, why are people in The Matrix dressed like they are in The Matrix?
- Dark clothes == underground, goth, anti-consumer with bright clothes
- 90s == short hair, clean but dishevelled Gen-X look.
- Leather == EDM nightlife, punk, goth, metal
- Urban club scene == No smileys, baggy pants, psychedelic colors. All business grunge
Well it’s only the freedom fighters who dress like that. So the clothes are halfway between a military uniform and alternative fashion. It says “I don’t believe in this system and I’m ready to kill someone”.
Man The Matrix deserved to stay in the culture longer. It even became double-relevant with the trans-themes
I rephrased this a few times, but basically Columbine happened and that was the end of that.
That explains why the never made any sequels.
they did make some decent comic books though
That happened before the Matrix didn’t it?
Looks like it was a month after, March and April 1999
The Matrix look went on for much longer, this guy is seven years later, so I reject the hypothesis tbh
Like it is a genuinely good film and here is how I know. I have only seen it once, opening week in 1999 before any of the hype had built. There was 6 of us in theater.
Despite it being 27 years, I can still tell you key characters and plot points after all this time. That is how you know it was great. The sequels… not so much.
The original film was close to perfection, the second film had its moments, like the night club scene and the introduction of the twins and flipping an SUV with a samurai sword, and the third… basically only thing I remember is watching a live-action version of a DBZ fight, which was awesome to watch in the theatre and obviously still miles better than any fight in the actual live-action DBZ movie… But I couldn’t tell you what the rest of the film was about.
There is no live action DBZ though.
Part three tied the plot together in the end and gave it a tidy conclusion, but it was like a completely different film from one and two, probably cause most of it took place outside the matrix.
I liked Agent Smith’s existential rants. Those make the movie worth seeing, even aside from wrapping up the plot.
But the big battle in the cave drove me crazy because the timing was just so off. Like I think they wanted to build suspense so they dragged some things out. But for me that killed the suspense because it was like “okay time’s up, they would be dead if they didn’t have plot armor.” Personally I can’t feel suspense if the pacing isn’t at least believable.
It’s been my favorite movie since I was 11.
My reasons for liking it have changed a number of times as I grew older, but the movie has always been good.
Part of the reason that I like it so much is that you can fit into so many different allegories, but the core message of “change is hard, but you shouldn’t give up hope because life gets better” stays the same.
He’s beginning to believe.
Which training program did neo have to load for this?
Your mom’s college years.
So that skill is genetic, then?
Not quite sure what this means but checking your post history just in case
It’s not terribly interesting, sorry home slice
Thats just what an ass assassin would want us to think!
Look away
What who ?!?!
Absolute legend vol. 3
Waterbed drinking 101
The whole pornhub catalogue
There is no straw
How much do straws cost in the matrix?
Which was the style at the time.
I hope that fella is keeping well.
What good is a phone call when you have no mouth to speak (because it’s stuffed full of straws)?
