People keep refering to the directors as "The Wachowski brothers." If one of them is getting his weiner chopped off, are they still the Wachowski "brothers?"

10 discs? Geez, I think they spaced the stuff out across more discs than necessary just to say that there's enough following to validate 10 discs worth of stuff on the Matrix.

Watched the first one at least 12 times. Saw the second one once. From what I have heard I don't know if I care to see the end.

Yes, Larry is getting surgery to become a woman. We had this story linked back before the forum crashed. I remember seeing it on Fark and Yahoo as well.

Here's a link to an article that discusses his choice.

If you search harder than I did (I entered his name and looked at about 10 links that came up), you'll find a lot more info, including how he was dominated by his wife and how she divorced him because he was living a lie by not telling her he wanted to be a woman.

Disc 2: New cut incorporating 55 minutes of footage shot for the Enter The Matrix game.


I'd really like to see that. Some of the scenes in the game are interesting.

Wachowskis give new meaning to "box set."

So... I guess they aren't the Wachowski brothers any more?

I just learned that in the first script of The Matrix, humans were being used as processing power, not batteries. It was dumbed down for audiences. And it would make it all make a lot more sense.

Would it? An AI that could do all the rest, why need human brains?

Maybe early on they'd be hurting for processor power, since they only had a single city, and they'd just nuked the world. No more supply chain. So they used all the organic processors running around starving to death.

It makes way more sense than the battery thing, which made zero sense.

That also kind of explains why they didn't expand out into the solar system, instead of fucking with the blasted earth. If it was for power, orbital solar arrays give them all they need for a few more billion years. But if it's supply chain/processing power problems, then you can't leave the place where you're growing all your CPUs with slime.

Watched The Matrix with one of my kids several months back. She enjoyed it and said, "Are there sequels?"

I replied, "Nope."

And that was that.

As it should be. 3 Star Wars, 1 Matrix.

Rogue One was good enough. Call it 4.

I almost said that. OK, 3 base movies, 1 add-on.
