And the kung fu is BORING. And now it's like some stupid haunted house type thing going on. The people here are supposed to be computer people so how can you think a movie where programs have a choice in whether or not they are deleted is worth watching? I mean come on, why don't the machines just type in the console command to delete the oracle, etc.?

Gotta love how shooting some 9mm bullets into a window and door panel can make a car flip 10' into the air.

jeez...are you a tool of government oppression?

does anybody have to scroll all the way over to the -----------------------------------------> right just to read this post? and does anyone else have some weird formatting with the ads on the left side making a weird white gap/space thing between the avatars and the ads? I think they need to fix unlimited text to the right. It's very annoying having to scroll to teh very right just to read a post and even scrolling this far just to click reply. :cool:

yes, some of the matrix doesn't follow, but like people said it's just a movie. but next time you want to pick apart the movie, fvcking
think your argument through, jesus christ. you picked all of the wrong objections to post - none of them make sense for christ's sake.

and to your "objections" that people have already answered to:
dumbass...the car didn't flip in the air because of bullets. use your freaking head. the twins killed the goddamn driver. the car then veered
into the median and flipped because of an obstruction. same thing with the suv. the driver died, fell on the steering wheel and the car started making
a turn while driving at 75mph. any car w/ a high center of gravity will flip.

i honestely think you're either brain dead or decided to walk in half way through the movie.

So you have no problem with the concept of a massive computer program that people are jacked into but you take issue with a car explosion/flip?

Perhaps the sci/fi genre just isn't for you. I didn't watch Secrets of the Ya Ya Sisterhood because I knew it wasn't for me. Stick to the types of movies you like....

Why didn't the Damn machines just use cows or pigs or animals that don't fight back!

i'm guessing human emotion and internal struggle and turmoil cause more brain activity. but if you watched
animatrix you'd also know that it's because the humans and machines fought in wars for decades, and through
these wars the machines started investigating the human body and it's intricate functions. it was through these
methods that the machines developed the means to use humans as energy sources. and it's also not entirely
out of the question that the machines use animals and humans together. more organisms = more power.
