I had no idea Cloud Atlas and Jupiter Ascending was by them. That's fucking crazy how much goodwill The Matrix has given them, even after The Matrix sequels. --- http://i.imgur.com/0UFI0T9.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

I guess they did write the screenplay for the movie V for Vendetta, which I actually liked and still like so that's something. Wonder why they didn't direct it though.

Sometimes this happens with a director.
Robert Rodriguez showed so much promise with the El Mariachi movies and From Duck till Dawn. Then he made a bunch of kids movies and some terrible joint productions that showed off how much better of a director Quentin Tarrantino is. Haven't seen much of his work lately, has he returned to form? --- If what you believe is truthful and just, you shouldn't have to posture as someone or something else. ... Copied to Clipboard!

The second Matrix movie was basically their Empire Strikes Back yet few people complain about the latter, People hate the second Matrix movie, but I think it's actually quite good despite some shitty dated CG. The problem is the follow up movie was genuinely terrible. I know some people now have been told to hate Return of the Jedi, but at the time it was liked and I genuinely think it's my favorite Star Wars movie... so it has it's fans unlike the third Matrix movie. --- If what you believe is truthful and just, you shouldn't have to posture as someone or something else. ...

I feel like the 2nd film promised so much that the 3rd just outright abandoned, which is weird as fuck, since they were filmed together and released months apart. --- lolAmerica ... Copied to Clipboard!

The fight scene in the mansion that diverges and then bleeds into the highway chase sequence is still just full on amazing.

I remember at the time audiences were a little confused by the abrupt and cryptic ending of the second movie, but hyped for the next movie and trilogy ending. Then the third movie comes out and it's a dull slog with very few memorable scenes. --- If what you believe is truthful and just, you shouldn't have to posture as someone or something else. ...

Cloud Atlas is an amazing film. Especially the comedy segments with Jim Broadbent. And Tom Hanks as a Cockney gangster! The 70s conspiracy thriller bits were excellent too.
Didn't enjoy the futuristic parts so much, but overall a terrific film. --- You'll see motivational pictures about working hundred hour weeks/Well, it only applies to those who are operating at a really basic level ... Copied to Clipboard!

Matrix 2 wasnt great as a whole, but it still had a lot of really cool scenes. I disagree, but then... it has a similar structure to back to the Future 2 where everything was in flux and hyper liminal, which most people didn't like but I thought was far better than the cheezy wild west part 3. --- If what you believe is truthful and just, you shouldn't have to posture as someone or something else. ...

Speed Racer is incredible. I avoided it for years because it got such bad reviews, and then when I finally watched it, I was blown away. That movie is gonna get reappraised in the future, and people will realize it's a masterpiece that was ahead of its time.

The Matrix sequels aren't nearly as bad as their reputation would lead you to believe, especially compared to the endless schlock of sequels we get today. At least they tried to say something creative.
Cloud Atlas was OK but should have been better, I haven't read the book but I wish they tied the multiple storylines together better, at the end it all just seemed kind of pointless? --- Hello world! ... Copied to Clipboard!
