      I thought the fight at the chateau was incredible as well. Felt like it drew influence from Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, in how it showcased all the different weaponry. Plus the score was just great. Cut from that to the freeway chase and they somehow managed to actually escalate the action without fatiguing the audience.
      I think I'm in that rare group that actually prefers this movie over the other two, it's my favorite of the trilogy. It might not have been as story thick as the first one, but the pacing was unreal.

He also got to train with LAPD SWATT, and they said he was good enough to ACTUALLY be in their unit! There's some terrific videos of him (And Halle Berry, for JW2) at Taran Tactical that are DEFINITELY worth checking out!

      The screens represents all the pervious iterations of Neo. All the version of him made the choice to ‘save/reboot’ Zion by going back to the Source and reintegrate the code he carries and select 23 people, 16 female, 7 male to rebuild Zion. He is the only one who did not make that choice. There always will be people like Neo that will reject the Matrix and that can’t be left to go unchecked.

    Carrie Ann Moss is PERFECT casting as Trinity too. All of the main cast were taken through a lot of pre-filming work on stunts, action etc. She took to the stunt driving like a duck to water. She quickly became one of the stunt drivers / riders. If I recall from one of the documentaries, her Dad was a stunt driver so she's grown up around fast things. I imagine that ability would make her even more attractive to other producers in other movies.

    There is a wonderful irony from the first Matrix where Agent Smith was calling humanity a virus. Here in Matrix 2, Agent Smith is literally a computer virus overwriting others and duplicating himself over them. Not just programs, but People too.
    One detail you might have missed was the Person picking up the phone was overwritten by Agent Smith. It was Smith who went through the phone into the real world. He was the guy cutting himself. He was also the guy at the end lying next to Neo.

      I played this game years ago.. fighting the werewolves and vampire analogues in the Merovingians Chateau. So many cool stages, fighting agents off the back of a C130 with the cargo ramp open in flight, the sewers, fighting Seraph and Trinity one on one, too many to list. Extra scenes with the actors and actresses were shot for the cutscenes, Niobe and other minor characters were given a lot more screen time. Best of all, written by the Wachowskis themselves. A true companion experience to the film.

    The ~20 minutes from "stop lots of bullets" to "rescue Morpheous from the truck crash" I think is the best 20 minutes of action in cinema. Sweaty palms the whole time.
    There are moments in other movies that are better, but nobody has strung it together like that. Maybe the start of Saving Private Ryan, but I would argue this is better.

  • @TheFalconerNZ

    When Neo meets the “The Architect” all the TV screens behind him show all the possible outcomes of Neo responses to a question/answer/reaction with each screen also showing the screens for all the possibilities that eventuate from each option he picks so on & so on. As seen when Neo was told the truth some screens behind him showed Neo being angry, some in denial, some in defeat & some in acceptance & once he picked his reaction that screen moves to the foreground becoming reality and the screens behind Neo update to the sub-possibilities for that reaction from there on. And “The Architect” already knows what EVERY screen holds or more clearly, knows all the outcomes from all the decisions Neo can make before Neo arrived.

    • @porkflaps4717
      @porkflaps4717 3 месяца назад +1

      Well, he THINKS he "knows" every possible outcome but he isn't omnipotent and just like the Oracle, his foresight is based on an always changing present time with alot of factors and moving parts and it relies on the choices that others make(or don't make). In other words, his powers of prediction are not perfect and they rely on so much to be accurate that it's subject to mistakes or misinterpretation. Not only that, but his outright hubris to believe he IS omnipotent and can't be wrong plays into it- and that arrogance gave him a blind spot to ONE scenario that he never saw coming: Neo joining with the machines to defeat Smith, sacrificing himself to create a lasting peace, saving (certainly) man, but maybe even saving the machines as well.

    Couldn't stop watching, couldn't stop thinking. If you get a chance on the Blue-Ray set they not only have the Animatrix which preceded both of these films, and then watch the clips from the Video Game, Enter The Matrix which features more of Captain Niobe speaking with the Oracle about why she needs to help Neo in Revolutions, but also features more of Persephone, and the Merovingian, but there is also Return To Source: Philosophy & The Matrix which reviews all three films and the Animatrix and interviews professors of philosophy and theology about the metaphysics and meaning in the films!

    Each visit to the Oracle modifies him. When he's almost infected with the Smith virus, that modifies him too (and probably teaches him a trick he uses to restore and heal Trinity). Morpheus got a shot of the Smith Virus too, and I wish they had played with that idea more. Arguably, like how the Merovingian uses code injection (such as that dessert) to manipulate behaviour, Persephone does something similar with the kiss, as well as taking something sustaining for herself.

    This movie had a great sound track... They had rockin' songs by Linkin Park, Marilyn Manson, Rob Zombie, The Deftones, P.O.D., and Rage Against the Machine. And they also had techno by Oakenfold and Fluke. One of my favorites was"Furious Angels" by Rob Dougan. The version for the soundtrack was instrumental. The vocal version is almost like a poetry recital. Rob seems to recite the lyrics more than he sings them. One of the BIG pump up songs is the Marilyn Manson one... "This Is The New S#!@". Warning though... the uncut version is raw... The S-word is in the title and it drops a number of MFer bombs too. I believe the Official Video version is cleaned up though. Don't have the kids around for the video... it is typical Marilyn Manson disturbing...

    • @xzonia1
      @xzonia1 Год назад +3

      True. He said in an interview once that he did a ton of training for these movies, but the first day on set when he was asked to hit the stuntman, he couldn't do it. They'd practiced all the moves, but never actually hit anyone, and he was afraid he'd seriously injure the guy. The stuntman assured him he could take a punch, so Keanu hit him ... and yes, he got up again. So Keanu relaxed after that, but he does take the responsibility of wielding these skills very seriously. He'd only use it on someone IRL if there were no other choice. He's a very kind soul.

    Chad Stahelski - Started out as Reeves stunt double. He moved up to stunt co-ordinator by the second film. During the first film, in the subway scene where Neo jumps up and smash the agent on his back into the ceiling; Stahelski performed this stunt where they pull his up, with a pulley system, with the agent on his back to smash him into the ceiling. Instead the pulley system stopped working as they were coming down 28 feet....with the stuntman on his back to the ground. Stahelski said "Most of his right leg was messed up." He destroyed his ankle, knee and hip. His knee completely turn around. Pretty bad. He couldn't fly to the states to get surgery until he could at least move his leg. The Wachowski felt bad about what happened so they invited him into the editing room. This is where he learn all about filming and editing. As you know, Stahelski is the director for John Wick. You can see how the Matrix and John Wick movies look a lot like. He learn from the Wachowski. Plus during the Matrix this was the first time (that i can recall) they asked actors to go threw some intense training (martial arts and gun training) so they could perform their own fight scenes. Which Stahelski carried over to the John Wick franchise. ruclips.net/video/5m3sW94zjXM/видео.html

    Also...one thing you guys kind of picked up on during the cave scene is the connection between Zion and the human body. One of the many interpretations of this series is that Zion represents the body, the Matrix represents the mind, and the machine world represents spirit. And they're all important in their own way.

He helps them with safety from the Agents (and Architect) and they work for him doing the dirty work. The train man (in the 3rd movie) is the shield from the agents.

    Greetings Jay and Amber
    You folks missed Dr. Cornell West as the Council member that call out for ships right before Jada "answers the call".
    Those are NOT Katanas. A Kitana is a curved, single-edged blade sword with a circular or squared guard and long grip to accommodate two hands. Those are called Sais. A Sai is a weapon of a blunted, prong shaped metal baton, with two curved prongs projecting from the handle. There are many different types of Sai with varying prongs for trapping and blocking.
    Being able to save Trinity, you have to remember that real world is NOT actually real. Neo can basically do anything he wants in the Matrix because he is like a programmer. Hence, he can revive Trinity just by sheer willpower, even if he does not fully understand how he does it.
    The tvs with the Architect are (in part) like Jay said, all the possible choices / versions of Neo that can occur in order to find the 'correct' version to solve the problem in The Matrix. Think of it like a multi-verse or alternate dimensions.
    Yes, you need to see the next one to discover how it resolves and what becomes of each character including Agent Smith.

Although it was never released in theaters, you definitely want to watch "The Animatrix" which came with the DVD box set.

    Some trivia for you guys. Actress Carrie Anne Moss (Trinity) is known to be an accomplished motorcyclist in real life. Much of the motorcycle stunts in the movie was actually her driving, and not a stunt double. Also, that big highway chase scene..., the filmmakers actually build that entire long stretch of highway so that they can control everything down to the tiniest detail. It wasn't shot on any real existing highway.
