Sorry I had you confused...

No problem, carton. It's seems easy to do lately! ;)

Because Saruman was better looking, told racy jokes to the elves and had a great personality!

But he's not a very good actor, which was a problem.

I have to wonder though. Is it because of his acting portfolio or just a lack of natural flexibility in roles?

I believe he played Agent Smith perfectly. I haven't seen him in anything besides these two roles, although a search details his screen performances prior to these two projects.

• The Lord of the Rings: the Return of the King (2003)
• The Matrix: Revelations (2003)
• The Matrix Reloaded (2003)
• Kangaroo Jack (2003)
• The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002)
• The Lord of the Rings: the Fellowship of the Ring(2001)
• Russian Doll (2001)
• The Interview (2000)
• Bedrooms & Hallways (1999)
• The Matrix (1999)
• Babe 2: Pig in the City (1998)
• Babe (1995)
• The Adventures of Priscilla Queen of the Desert (1994)
• Frauds (1993)
• Proof (1992)

I do not recall seeing him in Babe. Who was he?

Hmmmm. I just noticed that there will be two Matrix films released in 2003. Is that an error?

I doubt very seriously if PJ has any idea that a bunch of conservatives have been steadily chatting about his movie (and the books) for going on a year now, starting with an article about a New Zealander! What? Fifty Thousand posts, not including all the extra stuff!

I don't remember him in "Babe". He was probably someone at the fair. A judge or something.

I tried to watch "Priscilla Queen of the Desert", but couldn't get thru it. Terrance Stamp in drag just doesn't cut it. Weaving was a drag queen too. Painful.

Nope! Matrix Reloaded - Spring '03 and Matrix Revolutions - Fall '03

And the Animatrix this January on DVD! Woohoo!

That's cool! Any leaks (besides the teaser trailer on the Net) on plot lines?

I had to do a bit of searching. But he was the voice of Rex.

He's sort of type-cast in those constipated know-it-all roles isn't he...

I haven't followed the production closely. You can find the one sheets here:

Jada
Morpheus
Neo
Agent Smith
Trinity
Twins

The Matrix: Revelations (2003)

I checked the trailer and then IMDB to see if there was a title change. This must be a typo.

Am I still alive? My bum is numb- 3.5 hours of planning to plan. Oh the insanity. At least I have lots of posts to catch up on.

I'm outta here. Jrs' band concert is tonite (re-scheduled from Thursday due to snow).

If the weather holds (they're expecting freezing rain west of here), I'll be at a meeting here tomorrow:

That's the Hotel Roanoke. It's a three-hour drive. May be on tonight or tomorrow night. We'll see.

Keep it secret. Keep it safe.

Do you think it takes into account that Gandalf assumed his place as wisest after the War of the Rings?

Ksen: it sounds as if the Escaflowne movie is set after the series... except now things are confusing me. Um, did Hitomi know everyone else?

I love Matrix and am eagerly awaiting the sequels. But - what is Animatrix?
