Anybody seen it? Loved it or hated it?.....
I thought the movie was good...word of caution though: bring a pen and notebook and take some notes if your going to see it...

The movie could just get confusing sometimes unless your paying close attention to some of the longer dialogue scenes ,thats why a few people are saying the movie sucks, they dont know whats going on, for example a few of my friends watching it with me didnt know why that guy at the very end (just before the To be Concluded screen) was so important... [[if you saw it you know who im talking about]]

No, people are bashing it because it is a perfect example of Style over Substance. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Every IQ-range needs its Citizen Kane (Or The Godfather, or The Shawshank Redemption.)

I'd like to see somebody who had a hard time following the storyline to The Matrix Reloaded try to keep up with Mulholland Drive. Their brains would simply drip out of their anus.

I haven't seen the matrix, but thanks to revramrod and a link he hooked me up with on this site, and about six pages worth of info i was able to sort of know what the fuck happened in Mulholland Drive.

I once said while in New York and watching the Matrix 1 that the Matrix 2 was going to be stupid, this was about two years ago. I have not seen it, but come on, why not just name it the Matrix 2, what the next one going to be THE MATRIX REBOOTED. Rolling Eyes

You suffer from chicalon syndrome my friend. You only pay to see the action and start talking about La Gualmar or Las Chivas out loud, while the rest of us are trying to enjoy the dialogue.

I want to see it but my girlfirend didn't understand the first one so she won't see this one. I guess I'll call up my buddy and see if he wants to go or else I'll go by myself.
I've heard that it was really good.

Actually I understood it just fine, and was actually paying attention to the dialogue (i.e the architect scene) its just the ignorant people who were around me after the movie ended who suffer from this devastating syndrome....all i could hear behind me is whos that!? where are they going!? how do I spell my name!?...I doubt these people would be able to keep up with the plot to Biodome

btw, for anyone whos seen it what do you think about zion:higher level of the matrix or real?

dude, zion's fake! didn't u see the greenscreen effect when morpheus is talking to the crowd... kinda pissed me off that they can do all this stop-time effects but they managed to fuck up the greenscreen. Anyways, i thought that this movie was exactly what it's name said it was, reloaded... it's the same damn crap as the first one, as far as action goes, but now they just throw it left and right at you. It gets kinda borring after a while... They really didn't do anything new with the action sequences, just recycled what they had done in the first.... if it wasn't for the dialogue advancing the plot, this movie would suck ass.... I'm hoping it's like the OG triology though (starwars) Where the first episode kicked ass, the second episode was a'ight, but then the third episode blew everyone's mind... when's revolution's comming out, october?

I think its going to come out November 7... and about the star wars trilogy, wasn't the second movie that blew everyone's mind, courtesy of a little surprise twist at the end about lukes heredity?
