Again, very true - I get why folks are mad but I just don't feel the same way. I never felt that way about The Phantom Menace. I actually thought it was great. Just wanted to throw that in there...
Ditto here. When my friends and I saw The Phantom Menace a few years back, we all thought it was great. We went to a midnight showing on opening day, and when it was over we stayed up until nearly sunrise discussing it. Granted, it was far from perfect, but we still really liked it.

Likewise for yourself. It's too bad you couldn't enjoy the movie as much as I did.Pants said:I feel very sorry for you

Exactly what happened to me. It was great to have Star Wars back and talk about events that we've been looking forward to for years. It's a shame that there is only one movie left. The movie wasn't perfect but it's nearly impossible to top a classic trilogy.Dark Jezter said:
But to get back on topic - I am rooting for Revolutions to be good. I want it to blow me away. That would be great.

Well, the Wachowskis are influenced heavily by anime. Let's just hope that those robots aren't piloted by fourteen-year-old kids wearing cat suits.
No, I think law states that they must be at least 16. Hey, so am I (for another month and a half!)!
On to another subject that's been discussed here. I've noticed that too much hype can definatly cause a movie to disappoint those who are looking forward to it the most. I know several people who were expecting Star Wars Episode I to be the greatest movie ever made, and because it fell short of their impossibly-high expectations, they act as though George Lucas ran over their dog, burned down their houses, and slept with their girlfriend (that is, if they had girlfriends) all in the same week. George Lucas is the epitome of evil in their eyes, never mind the fact that their beloved Star Wars franchise would never exist in the first place if it weren't for him.
Yeah, I agree with you. However,
I think we'd have been able to get along without it, although I don't like to admit it...never mind the fact that their beloved Star Wars franchise would never exist in the first place if it weren't for him.

Hmmm...the trailer isn't that exciting, but then maybe the lack of hype for this one will prevent the horrible backlash that Reloaded got.
I did spot a moment where Trinity was kicking Morpheus - looked interesting. And Seraph fighting Morpheus, too.

Yes, life as we know it would be basically unchanged - however movies (not to mention the concept of the summer blockbuster), especially sci-fi/fantasy have been forever changed by Star Wars. It is a part of our pop-culture as much as anything.mojo1701 said:

I'm just a fan, man. Just a fan.Pants said:Maybe I'm just envious that you managed to enjoy it so much.... Nah!
It may bear mentioning at this point (re-reading my post) that at the time the movie was great. I do not consider it a Great movie, however. It was a Star Wars flick that I enjoyed very much and still do to this day. That's it.
But back to the Matrix - I always get dragged into these comparisons with Star Wars & the Matrix when I really shouldn't. They basically have nothing in common except that they are both science-fantasy. I will say that if Revolutions is half as entertaining as Return of the Jedi, I will be happy.

Just don't expect it, in fact expect something on a level with the first two, which is exactly what I think we'll get.
I'm with John and DJ on Episode would being a fun movie to see, definitely has flaws, but it's not the horrible piece of crap a lot of people make it out to be.
