The film's creators, brothers Larry and Andy Wachowski, have been remarkably tight-lipped about their vision for the trilogy.

Good. A valuable skill most artistic people don't have these days is the dicipline to keep their mouths shut and let the audience interpret the art for themselves.

I am proud to be the first FReeper to call The Matrix a conservative movie. I favor the Gnostic explanation for a lot of it, but it also works really well as a battle between communism and freedom. I wouldn't call it profound, though, because if I try to look at it too closely it just becomes a silly movie. I really hope they don't ruin it with the sequels.

I loved the Matrix, and was really, really looking forward to the sequels.

Then I learned the brothers are big fans of Cornell West and even wrote a small part for him into Reloaded.

I am not sure I can make myself see it now.

One thing that really bothered me about this whole article, is that they don't have any imput from the brothers who created this movie. They've been quiet on the trilogy, but I'm sure they can comment on where they got inspiration for the movie from and other things.
