Now I've not been bothering to read much discussions on the Matrix films of late - it's a honey-pot that I don't want to buzz too close to.
But I've just read a rather nice post on Uncle Stupid regarding Matrix Reloaded (thanks to Matrix Essays for the referral). The original author or source of the article wasn't quoted, but it looks like someone might have pretty much properly worked out some of the important bits of the damn thing. Absolutely fascinating, and quite edifying to read. A lot of it's in line with my own general thoughts on the situation (he says with a swagger in his typing), but its thrown a hell of a lot of light on some areas of the films that I've passed over, and is stuffed full of evidence backing it up (although it gets a bit 3-2-1 like at times!). A lovely bit of work, that should be read by everyone who's seen the film, so sod it, I'll shove yet another link to it here. Or maybe its just more wild pontification...
Tooled up on all this, I so need to see both films again, and soon. I just hope the spectacle of the IMAX-screening doesn't blow me away too much - I'm gonna want to concentrate!
