Meh, I still haven’t seen \\The Matrix Revolutions\\. Been hearing mixed things about it, too. Lots of people seem to think the original was the best out of the three… and as I haven’t seen the third one yet, I am in no position to be choosing sides. Speaking of the original, it was on TV tonight, so what do I go and do? I go and watch it. I must complain about the editing job on the movie, though: they cut out my favourite part! They cut out Spoon Boy! Of course, it then makes no sense when Neo later says, “There is no spoon,” during the rescue mission.<\/p>\n
And after following several discussions on message boards, I realize that Keanu Reeves is OLD. Like 39 years of age old >>; I always thought he was in his early 30’s or something… >>; And although he’s not the best actor in Hollywood, I’m not sure that another actor could have fitted the part so well. To me, Neo always had a touch of “What is going on and why isn’t anyone explaining this to me?!” look, which Reeves pulls off quite well. Will Smith as Neo would not have worked, mostly because it would have given the film a completely different tone. ??;;<\/p>\n
I think I’ll end my Matrix rambling with several quotes. Because quotes are always fun.<\/p>\n
Oracle: You’re cuter than I expected. No wonder she likes you.
\nNeo: Who?
\nOracle: Not too bright, though.<\/p>\n
Tank: Okay. What do you need, besides a miracle?
\nNeo: Guns. Lots of guns.<\/p>\n
[Don’t you love how the answer to everything is always guns? And lots of them?]<\/p>\n
Agent Smith: Do you hear that, Mr. Anderson? That is the sound of inevitability. That is the sound of your death. Goodbye, Mr. Anderson.<\/p>\n
And…. *drumroll*<\/p>\n
Spoon Boy: Do not try and bend the spoon. That’s impossible. Instead only try to realize the truth.
\nNeo: What truth?
\nSpoon Boy: There is no spoon.
\nNeo: There is no spoon?
\nSpoon Boy: Then you’ll see that it is not the spoon that bends, it is only yourself.<\/p>\n
