Kick that ass, Annika!

So who is planning to hump on hump day?

I really need to be looking like right about now. Need more time off! Relaxing is too much fun!

Down with Love may very well be the best movie ever made.

I’m still reeling (ha) over the joy that the movie gave to me – every little bit of it was absolutely perfect. Perfect.

Run, don’t walk to go and see this one.

Go now!

The more I think about the movie, the more I like it.

I still dislike the Zion plot (or at least the movie’s decisions on how to portray them), but I looking around at some suggestions of what the movie could have been (such as Mr. Butter Lover on aintitcool), I’m glad it didn’t decide to do that — i.e. Neo becomes a true superhero, showing huge power increases over the matrix, etc..

The first time Neo used the full force of his powers (jumping into Smith), he caused the smith fragmentation problem.
Everytime he flys, he warps space around him – in the end of the movie, we see the horrible damage that this power causes to the matrix.

I like that tie in, the use of power destroying, That even though Neo knows the rules of the matrix, he cannot yet “re-write” the Base, or base physics (since those are controlled in the source, I would think). He can bend the rules (or break them to the detriment of his environment), but he still has certain boundaries. A much better solution than Neo having sword hands or blink and have people turn into dogs or anything else.

They could have gone a bit further, perhaps — Shown Neo testing his power boundaries, etc – but seeing what they did with the Zion storyline, I’m happy with vague and loose plots from the Bros.

Yes, this will only matter to a limited few.

This is where to order Falernum.

Frabjous Day!

Perhaps More detailed personal review later (I’d give it 8 out of 10 — or maybe 7), but I thought I’d just ask this (for those who have seen it):

All below is the opinion of Craig:

So was I the only one who was completely bored with Zion?

Government/cutlure of Zion? Couldn’t care.
New operator’s family/wife? Yawn
dance at temple: BOOOOOORing
love triangle tween Morpheus, and the commander whose name I don’t remember: Who gives a shit?

Seriously – when I get the DVD, I’ll be doing much fast-forwarding.

Hello, Pacing?

Ugh. Good fodder for myst3king in the theatre quietly though.

Once we hit the Matrix and the meaty storyline, things were MUCH better.

I HOPE Zion gets destroyed. Filthy Hippies. 😉

Going to see Matrix tonight!

wee!

Thank you, !!

back, at work.

More later!
