Re:Trudging through the trilogy (Score 1)

I'm completely in agreeance with you. The Matrix was an awesome trilogy. And that is what you have to view it as, a trilogy. If you start pulling the movies apart movie by movie, and never keep in mind that they all built off of the previous movie you will notice plot point problems, untied plot strings, etc. However, if you look at The Matrix from a bird's eye view, and see all three as one; you may notice the meanings and philosophy behind them. I think one thing we all can agree on is the fact that The Matrix makes you think. I opens your mind to deeper levels of thought. It makes you sit back and say "Is this the reality, or is it just the 'reality' that we all know?" That was the whole point for the entire trilogy. Provide the public with a "fake reality", make them question the very existence of life, thought, love, reality, and the existence of the viewer themselves. I think they accurately pulled that off. Now, finally, we all have the answer to "What is the Matrix?"

I'm just glad the movie was better than the game!
