ok who saw it? reviews?

[Bronco_Buster_FweetHyagh]

I saw it. It was ok. AT least we don't have to see Neo's naked butt in our faces again.

As the movie started, I realized that the timing of it's release was impeccable......as I was very close to not caring any more. (I also realized the same thing regarding Star Wars, except it's already too late)

It was an entertaining movie, and I would recommend it. It wraps up in a very Taoistic way, in that all things (& characters) have a reason, and a counter-balance to them.

The attack by the machines on Zion is a rush.

I will own it on DVD.

It still sucks. And Larry Wachowski is still a cross-dressing freak. #2 and #3 should never have been made. Adios Matrix. Thank goodness it is finally over. Now we can look forward to a true epic masterpiece's finale-- LOTR: Return of the King.

[scab4faa]

Well I thought #2 blew chunks and #1 was alright. I'll probably just wait for #3 to come out on dvd so I can rent it for a dollar. When does LOTR #3 come out?

[Hawkeye's Girl]

I only saw the first one on DVD, but over on Rotten Tomatoes, it's getting only a 38% positive opinion.

[RedBloodedAmerican]

I am looking forward to the extended version of The Two Towers!! Wahoo!

[Prodigal Son]

Well, I really enjoyed it. I liked it even better the second time I saw it.

[Prodigal Son]

Dude, you shouldn't give away the story without a warning.

[longfellow]

SAW THE FIRST IN THE THEATRE,
2nd on dvd and fell asleep, and will wait for the 3rd on dvd. reeves is a horrible actor.

[longfellow]

YES! i did find the books a little boring though.

[Prodigal Son]

Could you include "Spoilers" in the title, moderator? Just out of consideration for freepers who haven't seen the movie yet but are planning to?

[Hawkeye's Girl]

Yeah, the movies are better than the books IMHO.

[PMCarey]

Gray said there may have been less anticipation for "Revolutions" simply because of the rapid-fire release timing.

There is less anticipation because "Reloaded" sucked and the reviews for "Revolutions" have been even more brutal. It'll do well because it has no serious competition for the next few weeks, but it'll drop off like a rock. I think it'll do about $200 million which is great for most movies but far less than what they were hoping for the series.

[longfellow]

i skipped through the songs which were sometimes 2 pages. i don't think all of the Beatles songs equal 2 pages.

[finnman69]

Going to see it in Imax...I saw reloaded in Imax and it was the most incredible movie experience ever visually. It made me literally sweat.

[RedBloodedAmerican]

I never saw it! LOL! I have no idea what happens.
