The twins were in Carol Vodermans better homes program!!
The Agent Smiths were so funny when Neo flew away, they all gave slightly different reactions, some cracked their necks, some looked at each other,

Whos the father of Carrie Ann Moss's child? Keanu? She used to date him...
Is she married?
I not being mean about her cause she was very good in the film Momento, and she can act.

Hugo's actually Australian, hence why he's in all our crappy movies

And I'd have to agree, those twin ghost/spectre guys kicked ass, the way they acted as well as looked. lol.

Hugo is great. I haven't seen a movie he's in where I didn't like his acting.

Then again I've only seen two

The twins were excellent, refined yet ruthless. I was seriously worried about the Bro.s' sanity when I saw stills of them-- just looked too weird-- but they put it in very well.

The Matrix Reloaded sure is one mind f*** of a movie!

I especially loved the motorway scene!

However the fight scene between Neo and all those Agent Smiths (BOY does he love himself!) kind of reminded me of those old Keystone Cops movies from the silent movie era. It was supposed to be really intense but was so over-the-top that it was funny! Still great though!

Roll on Matrix III!

Maan, I have to type this out again ! My browser crashed when I posted it.

I think that the best bit in the Agent Smiths vs. Neo scene was when Neo ripped that pole out the ground, he just sent them all flying everywhere, they looked so satisfying to hit .

I didn't really understand the bit at the end when Neo goes to the source and speaks to the Architect, mainly because I couldn't hear him for all the noise in the row behind me (and he used confusing words ). As far as I can tell <<LOOK AWAY NOW IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE MOVIE!!!>> they purposely have a flaw in the calculations of the Matrix so that a "One" can appear every so often (Neo is the sixth "One"). They then destroy Xion and use the "One" to rebuild it and start again. This is to keep the human race under control. I'm probably completekly wrong so if someone more intelligable than me could explain I'd gratly appreciate it . Thanks!!!

I could be wrong, i wanna see it again, but I think Zion is created to prevent the One from destroying the matrix.

The One occurs because humans are given choice.....
He is the anomoly that could threaten the existance of the matrix, therefore the computers/ machines need some way to control him.

Everytime The One has the choice to destroy the matrix he has to choose between Zion & Trinity or choose to destroy the matrix. Everytime he chooses love, he loses, Zion is destroyed and the one is brought back to choose the new males and females to rebuild Zion for when the next anomoly occurs.

I think.....

But if the computers needed a power source why did they not just use cows instead, they're bigger providing more power and they're not likely to rebel. Also you could call it the MOOOOOOTrix

"The Matrix Reloaded sure is one mind f*** of a movie!"

Actually, I'd disagree, I've seen worse.

Anyway ... Matrix.R. was a cool film, although I feel they spent more time on action than story. The twin's kicked though! In fact, the whole motorway scene did!

Well I thought the whole thing was fantastic. For the first half I was thinking 'well it's pretty good, but not in the same class as the original' but after that... wow. I didn't like the fight between Neo and Smith(s) because it kept swapping into CGI mode, and the same with the superman bits which just annoyed me. The twins were awesome though, the feeling of inevitability when Trinity went into the Matrix near the end... it was Brilliant!

I don't get why people don't like CGI. You can't tell it's CG if you're not looking for it... it's just another method of special effects. Besides, that was used to excess in all the other scenes too.

Whitch makes you wonder if they do use animals in the Martix, or maybe they were all killed off in the war before the Matrix.

or they made too much cloning, each time increasing their intelligence, and finally all animals of the future generation (right before the war starts) took off to another planet
