do you think Angelina Jolie is hot? in this picture?

Yeah I never saw the thing in Angelina Jolie - sure she has the lips but I think it's the face that gets me.

Sarah Silverman. She coulda been Trinity, and instead of shooting the Agents, she would curse them to death.

I'd love to clean her mouth out with soap...

You're nuts angelena jolie has skank rehab whore written all over her. while Ms. Moss exudes elegance, sexiness and class.

She is sexy in her own way. I don't think she's hot but she's not too bad for her role in the Matrix.

it's like when they picked carrie fisher for Star Wars. she wasn't by any means the hottest woman available but she was good for the part.

Carrie Fisher was way hotter then than Carrie Anne Moss is today.
agreed.

Agreed. Carrie Anne Moss isn't ugly, but she's not hot.

Agreed

Are you guys NUTS, Fisher was NEVER hot. she might have been "cute" or marginally attractive but she was never HOT.

as to Moss, i was thinking about how old she looked in the film and it hit me, we have a real double standard in how we judge actors and actresses.

She looks old and Keanu doesn't but they are probably close to the same age. i'm just guessing here as i believe keanu is 39 and i can't imagine that moss would be over 42 or 43.

we are soo used to leading ladies being like 15 to 20 years younger than their counterpart that we think this is the norm. it shouldn't be.

Edit

I looked it up and they say she was born in 1967 so that would make her 36.

I have to agree, she is only about a 4 out of 10, which for a lead role in a movie like this is really surprising. You might try to justify it by saying that they wanted the character to be believable rather than going for sex appeal, but that arguement doesn't hold water when they have all the pointless scenes in Zion in the first 30 minutes and when you look at the totally overboard chase scenes which had people laughing out loud in the theatre. Casting Britney Spears for the role would add cheesy humor value in addition to sex appeal. Lexa Doig would be an excellent choice I think but you would lose the comedy you would get with Britney.

Yeah I'd rather see Angelina Jolie than Carrie Ann Moss. Hell, Jessica Alba would rule this part.

Neither of them has the maturity that Carrie-Anne has.

Much as I drool over Alba, she can't act. She couldn't act her way out of a paper bag.
She can't act in serious roles. If you want an attitude, she's your girl. DA was good for her.

for me, as hot as i think zeta jones is, i'd never find her believable in this role.

How about Jerry Ryan?? she's not nearly as hot as zeta jones but i might find her believable.

Agreed

Come on... tell the truth! With her face, she looks like a MAN... man... Carrie-Man Moss. Yeah, she has a smoking body because of all that weapons and fight training but the comparison to KD Lang is pretty accurate.

Monica Belluci would be too hot for that role... I think one of the things that gives Carrie Anne Moss her credibility as Trinity is just the classy babe look - otherwise it would be ridiculous to see a stereotypical hacker like that.

Yeah Monica is too hot. Besides, she's too unbalanced to pull off wire tricks
