@@SaRENRampaiger and hopefully this new sequel will actually be good... I'm holding out hope, but in today's day and age where hollywood for some reason needs to destroy all males (especially straight males or white males or straight white males) and feel the need to be "inclusive and diverse" (as if diversity and inclusion never existed before 2016?!?) ... I have a bad feeling that they might wokefy this movie. I've heard some rumors that are not very promising...but then again, I've seen some other movies where the rumors were not promising and the rumors were wrong...so here's to hoping they do a great job!
OMG really? xD I was so waiting for your reaction on the first matrix! Nonetheless i'm sure you already love this trilogy (not just because of the main actor ^^) but i can't wait to see your reaction for the next movie coming out in december 22nd. Have you even watched the trailer btw?
Fun fact: I got to meet the actor who plays the Agent that climbs the police car and does the car-crushing jump. He said that was the most terrifying stunt he had ever done in his career. Basically, the stunt car had a handle on the side to allow him to grab and climb onto the roof. It's built into the car so that the camera can't see it. Unfortunately, when the car is in motion, the handle is way more difficult to grab. So when it came time to shoot that scene, they told him to do his best not to fall off. So he had to climb onto the top of a moving car, in his suit and sunglasses, and without showing any fear. He had to stand menacingly and act like he was about to attack the main characters like there was no wind trying to blow him off the car. And he managed to do it successfully, using his fear to make sure he didn't ruin the scene.
The Architect says that there were five previous versions of the Matrix, and five previous Ones. That makes this current version of the Matrix the 6th version, and Neo is the 6th One. When developing the Matrix, the Machines came to realize that it is a mathematical impossibility that 100% of all humans could accept the Matrix. Because of the existence of human choice, there will always be a small number of people who will reject the Matrix no matter how "perfect" they attempt to make it, and this small number would multiply and threaten the Matrix with a complete system crash that would kill everyone still plugged into it. The Machines can't control human choice, but they can anticipate it and plan for it by creating a cycle of destruction and reconstruction. Whenever Zion gets too big and starts becoming too much of a threat to the Matrix, they destroy Zion and kill all the humans living there. The One's purpose is to reboot the Matrix before it crashes and choose a handful of people to free from it so they can rebuild Zion. It's also assumed that The One doesn't tell the humans he chooses to free about the cycle, but instead allows them to believe that he's a Christ-like messianic figure so they can unwittingly help the next One perpetuate this cycle. All the previous Ones chose the door back to the Source so they could keep the cycle going, but Neo chose to go save Trinity instead, breaking the cycle and potentially dooming all the humans in both the Matrix and Zion.
actually the Architect doesn't say its the 6th version of the matrix is says I "PREFER" to count from the emergence of one anomaly to the next. And makes sense to me to that although there indeed has been 5 previous "ONE" there could have been any number of versions of the matrix only thing we get from him is how he personally defines "versions" of the matrix, based on what he says he could be referring to only "Release" versions of the matrix, I always took this to mean that the 1999 version of the matrix just gets restarted after every cycle rather than a "new" version, I think the point the architect is making is that how many versions of the matrix is irrelevant due interpretation. as you could easily say that every daja vu is technically a "new/updated" version, and if you follow agent smiths monologue from first movie it would seem 3 versions of matrix, I think my thinking of it makes it a lot deeper :)
"And after 100 years, WE ARE STILL HERE!" -Morpheus If the cycle takes about 100 years and they're on the 6th cycle, then we could presume that the year is closer to 2699.... or later. The date is the one thing that I wish we really knew about the world of The Matrix.
24:40 Those yellow barrels are designed just for that purpose, to absorb the energy from a vehicle in order to slow/stop it more safely. Some are filled with sand depending on where they are in the country
@@MysterClark I think they are common around the world, it may be her country that is particular in that regard. Or maybe she doesn't drive and never noticed.
@@alexmarkadonis7179 The Mythbusters used the old Alameda naval base for many shoots, but im not sure if the original set pieces from the Matrix Reloaded were still up. They did use that location many times though, it was one of their regular places to go.
@Necramonium Yes, I know. I worked in the area, I went to Paramedic school on the old base, and many of my colleagues worked as medics on the set. I said Alameda because most people on RUclips arent familiar with the area. They also shot in Oakland and in the Webster/Posey tube.
Which is crazy when you know how much regular road construction costs. Admitted its not meant to last decades and handle constant traffic (and so would quickly become undrivable if it was used as a real road) but its still insane how cheaply they managed to make it.
@@sandorclegane8164 Pretty easy to understand if you're a programmer but a little over the lay persons head. The short and sweet version of it is that when you start a program e.g. the matrix, smith etc etc then you must end it. You must balance out all actions with an end or else it forms an infinite loop which will destroy your program. A mouse click can initiate several programs like loading a web page, but once the program is loaded, it has an end function. This is so that it's not constantly reloading which would eat up your RAM and burn up your computer. That's as dumbed down as I can get it. Sorry if it's not a little bit easier to understand. What the architect is basically saying is that human brains don't require end functions like computers do so the problem with mixing machine and human anatomy is "choice" So the equation is unbalanced which takes the form of a human "the one" and therefore the program fails (as we saw at the end of the first movie "program failure")
A lot of overly complicated words are used to confuse the average viewer, but its also a test of sorts for Neo - which he passes when the Architect essentially says nothing at all and gets the response "bullshit".
I will always remember my second viewing of this sequel as much as the first because of my father, who watched it with me the second time around. Thanks to his degrees in philisophy and theology he picked up on everything the Architect was saying on the first pass, and was kind enough to clarify on any questions I might have had on the subject. Such a great popcorn movie. At the time, that teaser at the end of what was to come left so many of us looking forward to it at the end of the year.
Fun Fact: No one's hitting it, so I will!!! 😃 Before Keanu Reeves did his John Wick choreography, he had to learn, AT LEAST, 25 moves per fight scene in each of the Matrix movies. 😊
Those barrels of water are a real thing to cushion the impact of a crash. At least here in America. There are also what is called "runaway truck zones". Usually at the bottom of a steep long hill on the highway, in case a big semi truck loses their brakes, and are speeding down the hill out of control, it gives them a short path off the highway where they can maybe try and stop, or at least crash safer without taking out any other vehicles, but usually, as seen here, they are in problematic spots where idiots that are driving recklessly are likely to crash. Crashing into barrels of water or sand is better than metal and concrete.
😸 when you said "what a man"... that's my reaction when I watch Underworld and Kate Beckinsale performs as "Selene" 😸 That trilogy is interesting too, I'd love to see your reaction. And I really love Selene 🖤
You definitely aren’t stupid. All that ergo, visa vi, concordenly stuff went way over my head when I saw this in ‘02. I simply left the theater thinking I just witnessed a masterpiece and wasn’t smart enough to get it lol but it didn’t stop me from watching it 50 times till I understood the lore.

That part of the house is the "foyer", "atrium", "entrance hall", "lobby", or "vestibule". Pick your favorite. Barrels of water are deliberately placed in front of the barriers on US highways so cars won't hit the barrier at high speed. Loved your reaction! You had a lot of fun!
Ok, your Matrix reactions sold me. Subscribed. Keep up with your intelligent and charming observations about the films you watch. Epic is certainly a good way to describe these films. Nice touch adding the coat and glasses to Agent Teddy, Teddy Smith? in the background. Cheers.
At 7:00 when party begins, you started to dance and said "yee lets begin".. When the party turned to sexuality, your dance stoped slowly, getting shy and your cheeks turned to red... Haha So adorable moment ♥️♥️😂
if you rewatch the Neo/Smith courtyard fight scene, pay special attention to the sound. they put several completely unreal but appropriate sound effects in to accompany specific sequences, like bowling pins as Neo knocks a bunch of Smiths down at once. you never noticed them before but you'll never NOT notice them again.
These Barrels you can see ofthen on Highways or fast roads at the exits. Its exaclty ment for what happend. If someone misses a Exit it is Barrels of water and not a hard Wall.
"they destroyed the... Astrozenica,... whatever its called" heh, it is a pretty tricky name - Nebuchadnezzar or Neb-uh-cad-nez-er, but most don't pronounce the "d" in there, and in the movie they occasionally just say "the Neb" The "Hammer" is actually named Mjolnir. For those familiar with either Norse mythology, or the Marvel films, Mjolnir is Thor's hammer,... so they call it "the Hammer" :P
Nebuchadnezzar II, or "the Great", was a Babylonian king, famous for the destruction of Jerusalem and the Jewish First Temple, as well as the enslavement of the Jews and their rendition to Babylon. Fun fact; various sizes of wine bottle are named for Biblical kings. A Nebuchadnezzar holds 15 litres.
My dad wanted to name me Nebuchadnezzar, or specifially Isaiah Nebuchadnezzar (last name). Thank goodness he didn't. Kids would have had a fun time with it.
@@ThatShyGuyMatt Eesh, yeah that'd be rough. My dad jokes (at least I hope its a joke) that he wanted to name me Manfred Von Richtofen (last name). .... no thank you
@24:46 Those are safety devices called Fitch barriers, after John Fitch, the race car driver who invented them. Instead of hitting concrete pillars or something hard, the barrels "soften the blow", so to speak.
The Architect isn't "God" but he did co-create The Matrix construct. Personally, I printed out the Architect's complex dialogue so I could understand it more thoroughly by reading it multiple times. It's readily available online. :)
don't worry if you are confused,, it took me years to finally understand this movie, basically the big reveal for this movie is that, Neo, "the one" is just another program in the matrix, the computer A.I. understood humans desire for a hero character, so they built in a savior fantasy to continue to fool humanity, some one like neo has come many many times, and they aren't just a thousand years in the future, they are 10s of thousands of years into the future.
I always assumed 2199 was the year humans made AI. Then the previous ones to Neo's one make for 2799 give or take decades to centuries. I suppose it is fair to expect the setting is about a thousand years from now, but I think thousands or tens of thousands is too much.
this and revolutions were released the same year basically because the studio wouldn't let the wachowski sisters release one huge movie, but they are meant to be one. that's why the "to be continued" is so weird and why so much stuff is set up on this one but the payoff is on revolutions. also a lot of background stuff is in the games and the animatrix project. having a huge project spanning multiple medias at the same time was very new in the early 00s.
@24:41 They are not random. These are impact attenuators on highways to make cars stop relatively safely if they get out of control, e. g. if brakes don't work or car crashes. There are different types. These ones have water in them, others work without water.
There are two shorts, prequels to this movie on "The Animatrix": "Final Flight of the Osiris" and "Kid's Story". Leigh Whannell appears in this movie, by the way. He's the limping guy who's trying to prevent the rest of his ship, before the sentinels blow it away. Whannell co-wrote a bunch on James Wan's movies and he's also on Aquaman.
Blue *watches mass rave and Trinity with Daddy John Wick/Neo* "OK OK OK hear me out... can i be at two places at once? Can we just combine these and put me in the mix? PLZ?" lol
You should see the behind the scenes making of these movies. For this movie they built an actual freeway. One of the biggest chase scenes ever. Totally mental the prep that went into it.
A GSW (gun shot wound) to the abdomen is usually not as deadly as one to the chest, BUT it depends on some factors like which calibre hits you where at what angle. If the bullet hits the liver you'll die slow. If it hits your spine or spleen you'll die. If the bullet goes through and through you'll probably get peritonitis, which also kills. If you're hit in the stomach you might live, depending on the type of bullet. You have a chance to survive a 22 calibre. A 30 calibre soft point or a hollow point would shred your stomach, killing you quickly.
I’m SO stoked for Matrix Resurections. The ongoing cycle that the Oracle and the architect discuss at the end and the knowledge the whole thing starts over and over anf over every time it’s hacked and destroyed , the director it running the simulation again but the matrix has. Done what the architect said it would, put everyone back in, change up some things , take out mental triggers and try again . Such a damn cool concept, it’s not like many are thinking, they are remaking the first Matrix,..rerunning , “resurecting” the simulation with more programs to control man.
OMGGGG FINALLY A GIRL, A HUMAN WHO REACTED THE SAME WAY I DID and has the same taste as i. we enjoyed this so much, didnt we? hoping and actually knowing ur third parts react will be as wonderful as i experienced too. 💗 wachowskis women qere so misunderstood during that 2000s. and oh yeah, "CONFUSION LOUDER THAN WORDS" indeed haha but it's a good kinda confusion that allows one to revisit the movie or scenes as it was meant to be.
Those huge barrels of water are put on the highway in certain areas so if a vehicle crashes the passengers may survive the crash (They actually exist in the U.S.A.) .... The more you know Blue ;-)
smith isnt a agent anymore , obviously .. nice reaction video.. you should watch the making of this movie.... Actually that's a barrier they use on highways in the USA and some other contries ,, because if they were solid they would kill people the water helps disperse the energy from the impact
I wish the whole franchise had ended with Neo deciding which door to take with the Architect watching. The whole franchise jumped the shark from that point forward.
39:30 that never got explained how he can do it "outside" the matrix, btw. And I'm putting outside in quotes, because the only reasonable explanation I can think of is that they never left the Matrix, and that's just another virtual world that they're more likely to believe. Those who otherwise reject the main virtual reality get pushed outside into the secondary. That would also explain this being the 6th (or was it 7th) version of this cycle of "The One", and them destroying Zion. This is all, however, just my theory on it, that I've held since 2004, roughly.
While the flying to save Trinity scene is cool, I think it is a flaw in the movie, generally. Because he is the one, and operating at a higher plane in the Matrix, Neo should be able to just appear wherever he wants to appear instantly. While you could call it teleportation, I'd prefer to say it is more of a just operating outside of the parameters of the Matrix and having total control of his location. I also think that he didn't have to fight anybody the whole movie. He could have just willed them dead or willed them incapacitated, etc. He didn't need key makers or anybody else's help. He just had to will it to be so. Blowing up the "mainframe" that is somehow inside the Matrix... he should just be able to whim it to blow up.
(11:34) Of course you have! Anyone at this point in history may have heard about miracles (healings) on patients, where doctors are not able to explain. Also, entities from folklore like poltergeists, shadows, or others more famous such as Dracula, and the children of the night! UFOs, OSNIs, extraterrestrials... It is the mystery of the world and our place in existence. Every religion from today and ancient times can enter in this category giving meaning to the inexplicable (paranormal).
Matrix movies are interesting reactions to watch. Characters and story are somewhat easy to follow just fine. I would love to see more reactioners go deeper into these films. Symbolism everywhere, references and easter eggs galore and are not picked up on a first/single viewing.
Oh, when you said "the AstraZeneca" 😸😅 My mother tongue is Spanish, I can't even write the name of the ship well, I prefer to say it in Spanish but it's not really easier! 😂
Trixy: "Oh damn.. yeah... war is coming.. that's how the best parties... a-are... =8-O.... oh damn!" your blushing Blue! =X-D never been to a "mud dance"???
If you enjoyed Trinity's rescue from death, I can't but suggest you watch CONAN THE BARBARIAN (1982) and check Valeria's devotion. That's a badass woman as well!
It's so rad seeing people reacting to these, I saw the first Matrix in theaters when I was 14 and was probably the reason I spent my highschool years as a goth kid, could've been the 8 years of catholic school prior also. You should do a Trinity Cosplay for Halloween/Matrix Revolutions finale 🎃
Atrium or grand foyer. Water barrels to slow car impacts. They are always in the matrix which is why he has powers. The architect wasn't, but didn't tell the whole truth either.
General Motors donated over 100 cars to this movie shoot for them to destroy. Then they went bankrupt a few years later, even before the financial crisis. Gee, I wonder if top management might have made some stupid financial decisions?!
Gee, I wish we were neighbors 😹 I like this movie but sadly the sequels are affected by the first movie. It's difficult to recreate that sense of surprise again. But the trilogy as a whole is very sound as story telling and many questions from the first movie are really well explained in the two sequels. I laugh and cringe with you re-watching this after so many years. Thanks.
I loved when you said "Oh Damn... WAR is coming." Cause I thought: "That's not ALL that's coming..." see what I did there? I mean, Neo and Trin. ("I know, but if you had to EXPLAIN the joke, it didn't @(#*$ work, did it.") (-Craig Ferguson.)

@24:46 Those are safety devices called Fitch barriers, after John Fitch, the race car driver who invented them. Instead of hitting concrete pillars or something hard, the barrels "soften the blow", so to speak.
The Architect isn't "God" but he did co-create The Matrix construct. Personally, I printed out the Architect's complex dialogue so I could understand it more thoroughly by reading it multiple times. It's readily available online. :)

the keymaker is also the doctor who stitched john wick up on a countdown.
Carrie-Ann Moss really drove that Ducati in the Highway fight scene
don't worry if you are confused,, it took me years to finally understand this movie, basically the big reveal for this movie is that, Neo, "the one" is just another program in the matrix, the computer A.I. understood humans desire for a hero character, so they built in a savior fantasy to continue to fool humanity, some one like neo has come many many times, and they aren't just a thousand years in the future, they are 10s of thousands of years into the future.
I always assumed 2199 was the year humans made AI. Then the previous ones to Neo's one make for 2799 give or take decades to centuries. I suppose it is fair to expect the setting is about a thousand years from now, but I think thousands or tens of thousands is too much.
@@alexmarkadonis7179 its kind of a mystery how long the cycle has been going i agree.
this and revolutions were released the same year basically because the studio wouldn't let the wachowski sisters release one huge movie, but they are meant to be one. that's why the "to be continued" is so weird and why so much stuff is set up on this one but the payoff is on revolutions. also a lot of background stuff is in the games and the animatrix project. having a huge project spanning multiple medias at the same time was very new in the early 00s.
@24:41 They are not random. These are impact attenuators on highways to make cars stop relatively safely if they get out of control, e. g. if brakes don't work or car crashes. There are different types. These ones have water in them, others work without water.
Still surprises the films people haven’t seen. Great way to enjoy classics through fresh eyes.
not a classic yet ..for any Movie to be a classic movie has to be 25 years or older ,This movie was released in 2003
@@Pinkielover the comment and the film choice aren’t tied together. The comment is in general.
There are two shorts, prequels to this movie on "The Animatrix": "Final Flight of the Osiris" and "Kid's Story".
Leigh Whannell appears in this movie, by the way. He's the limping guy who's trying to prevent the rest of his ship, before the sentinels blow it away. Whannell co-wrote a bunch on James Wan's movies and he's also on Aquaman.
19:28 "Soaking." Wow! And she looks so innocent, to me anyway.
Blue *watches mass rave and Trinity with Daddy John Wick/Neo* "OK OK OK hear me out... can i be at two places at once? Can we just combine these and put me in the mix? PLZ?" lol
You should see the behind the scenes making of these movies. For this movie they built an actual freeway. One of the biggest chase scenes ever. Totally mental the prep that went into it.
24:46 those barrels of water are actually there to rapidly decelerate your vehicle before you hit the metal railing
I think the room with the stairs you were talking about is called a foyer.
Matrix 2 & 3 out with one month between only (pretty rare this kind of thing) so that's why they put the trailer of Matrix 3.
"Oh no, they destroyed the astrazenica!"
Close enough XD
This movie is underrated. I like it a lot more after I got away from my expectations for it.
matrix 2 & 3 both are underrated. they are epic!!
A GSW (gun shot wound) to the abdomen is usually not as deadly as one to the chest, BUT it depends on some factors like which calibre hits you where at what angle. If the bullet hits the liver you'll die slow. If it hits your spine or spleen you'll die. If the bullet goes through and through you'll probably get peritonitis, which also kills. If you're hit in the stomach you might live, depending on the type of bullet. You have a chance to survive a 22 calibre. A 30 calibre soft point or a hollow point would shred your stomach, killing you quickly.
You know when you're in the Matrix when its all "Green.
The barrels on the highway were not random. They are full off water and act as a safety cresh barrier. Such barriers did exist.
I’m SO stoked for Matrix Resurections. The ongoing cycle that the Oracle and the architect discuss at the end and the knowledge the whole thing starts over and over anf over every time it’s hacked and destroyed , the director it running the simulation again but the matrix has. Done what the architect said it would, put everyone back in, change up some things , take out mental triggers and try again . Such a damn cool concept, it’s not like many are thinking, they are remaking the first Matrix,..rerunning , “resurecting” the simulation with more programs to control man.
I saw this one at the movie theatre,,back in the day.🍿🎥🤟👍👍😇📽️👌❤️🇸🇪😁🙂💙💛
To know more about "the kid" you have to watch the AnimatriX
Is "Lord of the rings trilogy" on your list by chance? Best trilogy of all time and won most awards.
Agree
Yep, the best trilogy by far!
OMGGGG FINALLY A GIRL, A HUMAN WHO REACTED THE SAME WAY I DID and has the same taste as i. we enjoyed this so much, didnt we?
hoping and actually knowing ur third parts react will be as wonderful as i experienced too. 💗 wachowskis women qere so misunderstood during that 2000s.
and oh yeah, "CONFUSION LOUDER THAN WORDS" indeed haha but it's a good kinda confusion that allows one to revisit the movie or scenes as it was meant to be.
Thanks Blue! Wasn't expecting The Matrix today. Looking forward to episodes 1 and 3. (And, yes, multiple viewings are just fine, imo.)
In the first film Smith compares humans to a virus. In this film he becomes one himself.
24:43 American highways have these often as a cushion in case you crash. Looks like they served their purpose here.
I think you could call that part of the building a foyer or lobby. An atrium would not be enclosed.
Those huge barrels of water are put on the highway in certain areas so if a vehicle crashes the passengers may survive the crash (They actually exist in the U.S.A.) .... The more you know Blue ;-)
smith isnt a agent anymore , obviously .. nice reaction video.. you should watch the making of this movie.... Actually that's a barrier they use on highways in the USA and some other contries ,, because if they were solid they would kill people the water helps disperse the energy from the impact
I wish the whole franchise had ended with Neo deciding which door to take with the Architect watching. The whole franchise jumped the shark from that point forward.
"If Keanu beats me up..."
Lady. That argument is completely impossible for the inherent nature of Keanu Reeves.
He is that kind of guy.
39:30 that never got explained how he can do it "outside" the matrix, btw.
And I'm putting outside in quotes, because the only reasonable explanation I can think of is that they never left the Matrix, and that's just another virtual world that they're more likely to believe. Those who otherwise reject the main virtual reality get pushed outside into the secondary. That would also explain this being the 6th (or was it 7th) version of this cycle of "The One", and them destroying Zion.
This is all, however, just my theory on it, that I've held since 2004, roughly.
The answer is in the "anamatrix".
In fact a lot of eggs are found there.
You are not wrong. There are whole RUclips sites dedicated to explaining the Matrix series.
"There is no spoon... buts hes dead" LOL best Blue line ever! Then she tops it with "Oh its the astrazeneca" lol
Yeah, that is how we do it. How do you make freeway gore point barricades over there ?
"Oh no, they've destroyed the AstraZeneca or whatever"
those yellow barrels are at many many freeway offramps here.
While the flying to save Trinity scene is cool, I think it is a flaw in the movie, generally. Because he is the one, and operating at a higher plane in the Matrix, Neo should be able to just appear wherever he wants to appear instantly. While you could call it teleportation, I'd prefer to say it is more of a just operating outside of the parameters of the Matrix and having total control of his location. I also think that he didn't have to fight anybody the whole movie. He could have just willed them dead or willed them incapacitated, etc. He didn't need key makers or anybody else's help. He just had to will it to be so. Blowing up the "mainframe" that is somehow inside the Matrix... he should just be able to whim it to blow up.
(11:34) Of course you have! Anyone at this point in history may have heard about miracles (healings) on patients, where doctors are not able to explain. Also, entities from folklore like poltergeists, shadows, or others more famous such as Dracula, and the children of the night! UFOs, OSNIs, extraterrestrials... It is the mystery of the world and our place in existence. Every religion from today and ancient times can enter in this category giving meaning to the inexplicable (paranormal).
" I'm gonna rewatch the part with God..."😁💀💀💀💀
I am loving watching these reactions
20:32 Possibly a foyer (sounds like foy yay). I can't see the whole room.
calling the Nebuchadnezzar the AstraZeneca from now on.
Would love to see your Matrix 4 trailer reaction!
Matrix movies are interesting reactions to watch. Characters and story are somewhat easy to follow just fine. I would love to see more reactioners go deeper into these films. Symbolism everywhere, references and easter eggs galore and are not picked up on a first/single viewing.
Oh, when you said "the AstraZeneca" 😸😅 My mother tongue is Spanish, I can't even write the name of the ship well, I prefer to say it in Spanish but it's not really easier! 😂
Trixy: "Oh damn.. yeah... war is coming.. that's how the best parties... a-are... =8-O.... oh damn!" your blushing Blue! =X-D never been to a "mud dance"???
Btw, there is a fourth matrix coming in December
I have heard it disregards Reloaded & Revolutions, acting as a "true sequel" to the first.
Not sure how I feel about that yet
@@callmeshaggy5166 Yeah I heard it takes place after the FIRST one too.
10:42 This is the arts part of martial arts.
The freeway would have been suicide, if they didn't have Neo
If you enjoyed Trinity's rescue from death, I can't but suggest you watch CONAN THE BARBARIAN (1982) and check Valeria's devotion. That's a badass woman as well!
It's so rad seeing people reacting to these, I saw the first Matrix in theaters when I was 14 and was probably the reason I spent my highschool years as a goth kid, could've been the 8 years of catholic school prior also. You should do a Trinity Cosplay for Halloween/Matrix Revolutions finale 🎃
38:59 "They destroyed the AstraZeneca."
Best part of the review xD
The Key Maker is also the voice of Master Oogway in Kung Fu Panda and Kung Fu Panda 3...
whaaa 😮
Nice, I never made that connection.
The house is a Chateau Blue..
Morphious: Best hype man ever
You're not stupid, you have a lot of potential. Just, we mostly do things that confuse us later when we try to think. A very nice reaction(s).
When you talked about the Astra Zeneca blowing up, I about lost it! Lol🤣🤣🤣 The Nebuchadnezzar. Named after a king in the Bible, albeit a douchei one.
Astra Zeneka or a.k.a. Nebuchadnezzar (Навуходоносор) is a biblical reference and also a submarine name. Check them out.
Cant wait for the third one
Hi from Lyon France ^^ Nice intro Blue ;)
Atrium or grand foyer. Water barrels to slow car impacts. They are always in the matrix which is why he has powers. The architect wasn't, but didn't tell the whole truth either.
General Motors donated over 100 cars to this movie shoot for them to destroy. Then they went bankrupt a few years later, even before the financial crisis. Gee, I wonder if top management might have made some stupid financial decisions?!
Look out, there’s an agent behind you.
so...I'm gonna wait till tomorrow so I can watch you react to the first one first..then I'll come back to this one :)
Gee, I wish we were neighbors 😹 I like this movie but sadly the sequels are affected by the first movie. It's difficult to recreate that sense of surprise again. But the trilogy as a whole is very sound as story telling and many questions from the first movie are really well explained in the two sequels. I laugh and cringe with you re-watching this after so many years. Thanks.
I loved when you said "Oh Damn... WAR is coming."
Cause I thought:
"That's not ALL that's coming..."
see what I did there? I mean, Neo and Trin. ("I know, but if you had to EXPLAIN the joke, it didn't @(#*$ work, did it.")
(-Craig Ferguson.)
I do miss the clothing styles of the 90s/00s
Reações naturais e bons questionamentos.
