Yeah, I only ever saw Revolutions once, at the theater and i hated it. But all the reasons why I hated it were cut out, so, you might like this version too.

This edit makes up for all the bullshit the Wachowskis force fed me.

Here's the maths:

The Matrix minus Cave Rave equals Better.

Re: The Matrix DeZionized
 

I don't get the whole Matrix hoo-haa. That is, I think they're all stupid. I don't understand the pedestal the first one was put on. It just seems like MyFirstScienceFiction Movie or something. That is, I think its appeal was that it presented science fiction to people who aren't normally keen on it, but they're disregarding the fact that it's stupid because it's stylish. No? I mean, I understand that two and three are stupid (and entertaining, at times on purpose and at times not), but why don't people think the first is the same?

Re: The Matrix DeZionized
 

I think that it kind of captured something about the mindset of the time when it was released. It was just before the millenium switch and the mass subconscious was in termoil. People were wondering if the world was going to end; if all the computers were going to crash; if Jesus was coming back, etc. All this tension was played out in the Matrix. It reflected the darkness of the Nineties and spit it back in your face in a regurjitated bad ass we will not be stopped kind of fashion. Not only that, but the special effects where unlike anything you saw before.

I remember that when I saw the Matrix, on opening night, I left the movie theater with my jaw dragging on the floor. I was 25 and it seemed to collect everything about our generations culture and crammed it into a two hour flick that just rocked.

Re: The Matrix DeZionized
 

Some movies can get by on style and concept alone. I think Blade Runner is like the Matrix as it's very stylish and asks the question are we real or replicants? (is this the real world or the matrix?) But I wouldn't want to watch a sequel to BR as it would be kinda boring to see Deckard killing off more replicants.

Also guns are cool.
