Hello, I'm Andrew Jopin.
Eric Siska.
Steven Sadek.
Chris Cabin.
And we hate movies.
Hello everyone. Welcome to We Hate Movies on the Side Show Network. Thank you for tuning in. As always, we are continuing the summer blockbuster extravaganza with, well, this is just a big mess of a film, isn't it? It's, uh, the Matrix Revolutions from 2003 directly. What? What? It's a revolution. It is a revolution. All those are messy. They are famously messy. This is directed by the Wachowski's, by the way, of speed race.
her fame and that movie where Tom Hanks
plays a black guy. What was
that one? He plays an Asian guy. Oh, he plays an
Asian fella? And a British guy too.
Is that Tropic Thunder?
Cloud Atlas. Oh, Cloud Atlas. Anyone
see that new one where What's his face plays a
dog? Yes, it's rotten. Oh, Jupiter Ascending
State. Oh, you saw it too?
Oh, yeah. Channing Tatum's playing a dog in that movie.
A werewolf. A werewolf. A werewolf? A space
wolf? And bees.
are aware that Milakunis
is the queen so they respect
her. Yeah. Of course, yeah. I mean, that's good.
Dude, you pack some fucking water
with you, man. Get some,
get some, get a tub.
Let me ask you guys this about the Wicheskees.
Is anyone watching that, what is it called,
Sensate? I watched the first
three episodes because I had to review it.
And? It is nonsense.
Really? It is like pure actual nonsense.
So par for the course. Yes.
I don't know. That first Matrix movie,
it's still great
and I just keep coming back for more
and I know I'm wrong every time
and I know I'm gonna get fucked so hard
by even trying
I don't actually I don't think I've seen
any of their movies since this one maybe
I skipped Speed Racer
I didn't see Cloud Atlas yet
and
Glad Atlas is like you have plans to check it out
Cloud Atlas is the nadir of film period
I'm gonna watch Cloud Atlas
I'm gonna read Infinite Jass
just watch
Watch, it'll happen one day.
Gonna do the Grand Teton's.
Oh, man. But the question
is, who keeps giving them money?
I don't know why.
This one made money, too, right?
The third made this? They all made money.
That's it. That's your ticket.
But, like, how many times can you be fooled?
Here's your stupid side.
Yeah, seriously, Warner Brothers.
But Speed Racer was a dud, though, right?
I'm correcting that. None of them
have made them. After Matrix Revolutions, they're all
done. I don't think they've reached
Matrix-esque peaks
financially. They've all
been debacles too financially.
Disasters. And in almost
every sense, like the scripts are always
garbage. Well, that Speed Racer
movie isn't a movie,
but it's like a get super
stoned and just look at your TV
two-hour fuckfest.
Sure. That's all that movie is.
And also John Goodman murders
people and makes jokes about
it after he does it. In like a
movie that's more or less geared
towards children. He throws a man out
of a window and then quips. Hey,
racer-X, you got a saw in there.
We did
some messy business on the track today.
But so this is the third
Matrix movie. And now, if everyone
recalls the quaint year of 2003,
we were just getting ready
to illegally invade Iraq.
And these two
movies came out six months
apart, which is the right way to do it.
I'm looking at you, AMC, television.
Although, you know what the bad thing to do?
is to end your second movie
with just out of nowhere, to be concluded.
To be concluded on a shot of a guy that
no one really knows who he is?
This dude, Bain?
Welcome to fucking Matrix 2 and 3.
Guys, you don't know who they are.
Where are the people I came to this party with?
You know, it's just like every...
Now I'm just talking to some guy from Cincinnati.
I don't know him.
Where'd my friends go?
I heard about all the money you made on the first one.
Could you not offer any of that to anybody?
Yeah, I just, I don't know what's going on.
You're filling this movie with, I mean, predominantly Australians and, you know, other Australian TV soap.
Well, I feel like a lot of it is like you have to, you know, get these people to agree to move to Los Angeles, or to Australia, where you're making these movies.
It's kind of like why there's a lot of nobody's in those Hobbit movies.
I mean, they're better known people.
Sure, sure.
But it's not like a caliber, whatever's.
I will get lost in those Hobbit movies
and those Ring movies just as easily.
I don't know. Ups Down Door for Elf,
whatever the fuck's going on.
I need a guide for all this stuff.
But there's a difference between that where they have
a bunch of makeup. They're made up to be
creatures, even the most basic one.
These people are made up to be
creatures of the night.
Well, they're club rats. It's like tattoos
and like haines, sleeveless
shirts. Oh, yeah. That's it.
Loose knit sweaters as far as
the eye could see. I need to talk to
the Zion Taylor because that person
needs to be fired. Well, apparently they
did good job with the silver chair crew.
See, in the first Matrix movie,
you're like, oh, like, oh, and they wear leather
and they got the sunglasses, like, oh, that's
kind of cool. And then in the second movie,
I'm like, wait, everyone dresses
like this?
Yeah, that's the thing that made them
stand out from all the squares.
And as soon as you start that second movie,
everyone's copying them.
It's like everyone else in the world of the
matrix saw the Matrix and was
I was like, that's cool, and started wearing their Halloween costumes everywhere.
Those were big Halloween costumes, by the way.
For quite some time.
You saw assholes walking around like Neo left and right.
Until 2005.
Yeah, it lasted a couple of years.
Even after this.
Chris, what happened in 2005?
I don't know.
It became socially unacceptable to dress up like a character from the Matrix.
You know how you want to start your blockbuster conclusion to a groundbreaking series?
your main character is stuck at a train station.
Just waiting for the next one.
And it is just a whole bunch of nonsense
about how he got there.
And that's the thing.
You can watch that first movie
and everything makes sense.
It's crazy.
I rewatch this entire trilogy for this episode.
When the first one takes the turn into the weird
and you're like, wow,
like now we're going someplace.
And thankfully, you have Larry Fishburn there.
You know, it is the Exposition Express, but you forgive it because it's a new world and we don't know anything about it.
And he's going through and he guides you through and it's totally fine.
And then, like, it just devolves into madness.
And you're just doing things like a computer program's coming out of the computer world into the real world, which is what happens in this movie.
And there's all this nonsense that you have to understand about like the cycles of the Matrix and how the Matrix always has to reload itself.
and Neo's not the first one.
There's actually been five other dudes.
There were five other dudes that had that first movie happen to them.
Sir, sir, I never gave a shit.
I absolutely never gave a shit about any of it.
See, the second of the third are just like,
let's get into the philosophy of the Matrix guy.
Fuck you, no.
We'll gather around in the common room.
And you see, the power of love is actually in the computer system.
It's like, what are we doing?
The first one is great.
It works as a self-contained movie.
It's an action. It's a sci-fi action movie.
And heavy on the sci-fi, and it's a good sci-fi, too, right?
You know what I mean?
Like, you're taking one conceit, uno, and extrapolating it to the utmost.
Like, oh, man, what if everybody was in a fucking computer program?
Holy shit, bro.
Then it's like, well, what if everyone was in a computer program and there was a train guy?
And then there were two ghosts and alpineo people.
Some French guy, and he's talking to somebody.
There's a keymaker and a gatekeeper.
An architect.
I always wanted to be an architect, Jerry.
Unconfirmed, if you played that Enter the Matrix game,
I think that they were were werewolves.
Out and out, where I think that they were legit werewolves.
Were they programs?
Were they written by the system?
Yeah, well, that's some dumb thing that they set up in the second movie
where it's like, in the Matrix, if you ever heard pre-tell of a Dracula?
or a Frankenstein or a
werewolf? Well, that's just
a computer program.
Rogue program. Yeah, it's called Wolfenstein.
I fucking played it. From 1990
to 1997.
Fuck, Castlevania got out.
So when we get to this
train station, we're greeted by
immigrants.
There's immigrants
that are programs that are like,
we're useless programs, so
we're immigrants waiting to be deleted.
Totally. They're waiting for a deep
portation train, by the way.
But at least we saved our daughter.
Our daughter, who's also a program.
But somehow we're computer programs that have evolved to learn how to love each other.
And what the flying fuck are we talking about?
Does a male computer program need to fuck a female computer program to impregnate it when it's in the right cycle?
Is there fucking computer birth control?
That's what I was.
I was like, did they make that one?
How is this your daughter?
Oh, we were all night coding together?
Dude, there was Red Bull flinging all over the walls.
I forgot to put on my coating rubber.
And we had an immigrant child.
And after I smoked my code cigarette.
Do you know, they somehow made Tron for idiots.
Now, Tron is pretty dumb.
I like it.
So do I.
It's stupid.
This is even dumber.
Well, because we're trying to take the basic idea of Tron,
which is a boiled down dumb thing.
Sure.
Dude in an arcade game or whatever.
And this he's called Neo.
But yeah, and that's the thing.
We're making this whole world
where there's all these ins and outs
and this hundred year war that's been going on
and all of this nonsense.
And people will just jaw at you for minutes and minutes
about stuff you could never care about.
That's the thing.
The two movies combined are four and a half hours
of people doing nothing but talking,
because that's all it is everybody just flapping their gums.
And if you want to get into the real nitty-gritty of the world of how the Matrix works
and Zion and all that, show me where you're making the sunglasses.
There are so many sunglasses and there's nary a sun in the sky at any shot.
I would kind of like it if you went to Zion and just like there was like a joke Ray Ban Hut
and then there was a joke fucking donuts.
Oh, that's in the, you know, whatever scary movie that the Matrix was parodied in, probably.
But that, oh, man, if you were the guy, like, you know, in like, you know, World of Warcraft or Second Life, how people, like, actually make livings by, like, making computer programs and, like, selling clothes and shit.
Yeah.
The guy who's selling sunglasses in the Matrix is Bill Gates.
It's not, it's not the computer programming guy.
It's just whoever Oakley is.
The person below that is.
The leather craftsman.
Yes.
Because that dude's pretty rich, too.
Working overtime.
So Neo's stuck at this train station.
It reminds me of being in my 20s, like waking up in a train station, not knowing what time it is, not knowing when the next train's coming.
Oh, yeah.
How are you going to get home?
Am I being deleted?
Yeah, I know.
Dude, I have Neo's exact experience.
I fell asleep on an uptown A train about six or seven years ago.
I woke up at 207th Street, end of the line.
I walked out.
It was a train station I'd never been at before, looking around, totally empty, except for an innocent-looking Indian family.
And then were you confronted by the gyro captain from the Mad Max movies?
I thought that was him.
Is that him, actually?
Yes, it is him.
And, uh, train man.
Dave Ventura, when nature calls, he's one of the poachers.
Yes, that's right.
How come he wasn't in Fury Road?
I've been thinking about that for like a solid month now.
I heard that, I heard.
I heard an interview with George Miller where he said that he wanted to put a gyrocopter in Fury Road.
But they ended up not doing it.
And he was never going to make it the gyro captain.
It wasn't going to be the same guy.
I mean, I guess, yeah.
Just the same vehicles.
All right.
I guess that's fair.
You want to sort of reboot the whole thing.
That's a great character, though.
Yeah.
That fella.
So I guess at the end of the second.
movie, both Neo and this character Bain are in comas together. It ends with Neo, like all these
little sentinels are coming at them, and he puts his hand up outside of the Matrix and controls
robots. Boo, that makes me mad. Like, the first, you're breaking every rule you have in that
movie, which is like, it's all about hackers. It's like a really cool hacker movie. It's the
coolest hacker movie ever, right? It's the movie
Hackers wanted to be. Yeah, it's just like
oh man, I'm such a good hacker. I can be
sexy, I could do like backflips
and karate kicks and all sorts of shit.
Run sexy.exe.
That's what everybody did
in that first movie. You're right. Totally.
And that's great. And then what these
other two are, specifically
this third one is like, yeah, we
know you like that first one and all the
stuff we set up, but there's just a bunch
of stuff we didn't tell you just yet.
And that's a crock of shit. When it's
Like, oh, yeah, the one can do this, this, and this in that first movie.
But then he's also learning how to do that, that, and that.
No way, dude.
It's like if Luke can teleport and return to the Jedi, you'd be like, well, that's just
horseshit.
Oh, he just reached the next tier of being a Jedi.
This is something we've never seen before in Jedi history.
He's night crawler now.
Yeah, now he's night crawler.
But yeah, so they're in these comas and they're like, oh, wait a second.
He, Neo's not having brainwaves that, you know, look like someone who has coma brainwaves.
Sure.
He actually looks like he's tapped into the Matrix.
And the whole thing is, oh, my God, how did he split and go into the Matrix while he's not jacked in or whatever they say?
Let's break some more rules.
Just throw him right in the garbage.
Why not?
So that's all going on.
And then there's the biggest problem with this third movie.
Not a lot of time spent in the Matrix.
Nope.
Nope.
Yeah, it's the Matrix without the Matrix.
Yep, it's just a whole lot of hanging out in this gross military base in Zion.
And because of that, specifically, like the first movie, what was so cool about was that most of those fights were hand-to-hand combat.
There were big fucking physical fight scenes.
They were kung fu movies.
And now it's all like Terminator machines firing at you.
And like, I wanted fights, motherfucker.
Like, that's what I, and even reloaded, as bad as it is, how.
has a lot of fights. There's some awesome fights in that second movie. And this is all guns. It's all just big white, yellow blasts of bullet light. You can't see shit. This is an ugly-ass movie. You're shooting ugly robots in the ugly face. And when I was re-watching the first one, I was like really taken by the eye, how little you see those things, the sentinels in that movie. Because they knew that they don't look great.
We're just trying to get this story by here, everybody.
And then we're going to get back to the actual fights.
And that's the other thing that's annoying, too, is in that first movie, because he hasn't learned how to fly or anything, it really is just some, like, traditional, like, Hong Kong wirework stuff.
And it's awesome.
And then when you get into these other two, we're flying all over the place.
The physics is ridiculous.
And it loses any kind of cool, like, we're looking.
at wirework because you have to make Keanu Reeves
a cartoon to fight all these
Hugo weaving cartoons. So it's
just a bunch of computer animation instead of
the impressive fight choreography. It looked
so bad that once we cut
back to Keanu Reeves as
a human being, I was
thrown off because I could actually see
like his hair and it wasn't just like a block.
It's just like a little
Lego guy with sunglasses, fighting.
It's so terrible looking.
Well, there are in the, we'll get to
the fight scene at the end, but with
agent smith but like when he punches him it's as the
the effects are as bad as son of the mask
when when he gets that slow motion punch oh man that's really bad it's so
bad i was watching fucking buster douglas boxing from 1993
how the hell does he get out of purgatory again
well he's basically uh he's going to he's in he's dressed like he's about to get all
the ass in the world at a fucking cowboy
be bob convention
he's got the long
the long coat all black some sunglasses he's
gonna fucking get that shit wet tonight
cleaning up all
the panels at the Hilton
convention lots of black mascara
all over your face
and he's
I guess like
Trinity
Morpheus and this dude
Saraph who nobody cared about
Seraph's just the dude that's like a sign
to keep the Oracle safe
by moving her from one
what appears to be
poverty-stricken apartment to another?
I don't know why the Oracle has to live in
these slums. I don't know either.
She's always... Make it a fucking mansion.
She is always in these
60-story high-rise slums
straight out of dread.
And you're just like, why are you living here?
You're the Oracle. I mean, I guess it's because she's supposed to be
in hiding or whatever. But so they go
to her and they're like, all right, what
the fuck is going on in this movie?
And she's, oh, have you noticed?
I'm a different old black lady now.
Man, so yes, the original actress, like, passed away.
She passed away.
And then, like, the whole, what they decide to do with it.
The concede is, like, part of the oracle's, like, cover got blown.
So she had to change what she looked like.
That happens in the video game I read, by the way, which you can go fucking fly and fuck yourself.
You could fly up in the air, circle around.
In the rain.
In the rain.
and go fuck yourself.
Because let's touch on that real quick
before we get back to the Oracle.
Here's the thing.
They attempted to do
this like cross-platform
world nonsense
where it was like
these three movies,
the video game world
and the animatrix,
which I got through like
two and a half of
and never went back to.
And the whole thing is like
you hear from big fans
of this franchise like
well actually it all kind of comes together
if you played the video game
and you watched every episode.
You know what?
Fuck you.
You're putting out these movies.
I'm going to a movie theater.
Everything better make sense.
Everything.
Also, you know, why the 10-year rule exists on this beloved show is because 10 years later, you got to look at this thing in the cold lighted day and you're like, you know what, I'm not going to fuck and plug in a PS2.
I'm not going to go on eBay and spend $30 on a PS2 by this game and play it just to understand what the hell is going on in this movie.
I mean, thankfully, those...
And in five years, that's even less relevant.
And even less relevant.
Those same cross-platform apologists are the people that will then upload all that information to Wikipedia.
So we have that now and it's fine.
But like to force people to do this, one, don't tell me that it's like just your innovative storytelling thing.
It's your cash cow.
You want people to go out and do all this nonsense.
They did a similar thing with Lost, but the thing with Lost was like it was all bonus nonsense that didn't matter.
You got everything in the show.
Wait, they had a lost video game?
There was a lost video game.
There was like side web things that you would watch, but it was all extra shit.
Like, want to see what that guy did last Wednesday on the island?
Oh, go watch him do his laundry.
Like, it didn't matter.
Like, you could still follow the show.
Right.
But this is like, by the time you get to revolutions, if you haven't played the game and read the comics and watch those terrible animatrix shorts.
Like, you're just, I hear so much Swiss cheese.
We're going to get letters now.
I'm sure.
And if you like it, that.
That's fantastic.
But I just don't have the time for it.
I don't like things where it's like we're doing a bunch of animated things and it's all different animation styles.
There was a Batman thing that was kind of like that.
Well, I also just don't, a movie shouldn't be giving me homework.
Yeah.
It really shouldn't.
Like, if it's going to be that, it's going to be that.
And like, it's got to be self-contained to a certain degree.
And this, I guess they end on a closure, sort of, but not really.
What they?
This movie?
This movie.
Oh, I guess so.
Sort of, but like, again, I don't give a shit
because all of it's been guns and bad effects anyway.
Right.
So the Oracle has decided,
well, my cover's blown as an elderly black woman.
Let's just turn into a different elderly black woman.
Like, they're looking for you in the Matrix.
Listen, you see a lot of these extras in the Matrix walking around.
Not a lot of elderly black ladies.
Sorry to break the news to you.
oracle but maybe you should try to blend in a little bit okay okay just hold on a guy
get rid of briscoe and curtis and then we can do that i'll change i'll change again man if
you know it's like we gotta go to the oracle they opened the door and pat marita opened it and
it was like yeah i would fucking start jerk it off yeah oh yeah absolutely that's how you'd change
the oracle around was i think he was dead by then too was he 2003 maybe i don't know he was a
Really? In 2003?
Sure.
This would have been a great role for him then.
Or Caesar Romano? No, Caesar Romero was definitely dead.
Oh, he's long dead. He's buried with that mustache.
Do you think he was buried with the Joker makeup on?
No.
The suit, at least.
I guarantee you, you know what?
Some fucking fucked up mortician was like...
So did it into the lining.
No, it's just like, you know, it's the night of right before the wake.
And he's like, hey, Johnny.
Johnny, come look at this.
You're an idiot, man.
And it's the Joker makeup on it.
Washed that off. The family will be here in an hour.
You wouldn't believe what they do to bodies.
Oh, dude, they're fucking...
They're posing with pictures.
Did you...
Did you dye this hair green?
We're not going to be...
Shave his head.
Now we've got to put a wig on it.
It's it.
You dyed it neon green.
Fucked my whole morning up, Jerry.
You know, you're not running this place yet.
I still got three more months to retirement.
Where did you find this lipstick?
Oh, you brought it from all.
Great. That's wonderful.
Valerie let you...
Okay, that's great.
Oh, they got the lip stuff.
stick there. I can't wait for Danny DeVito
to die so I could do that, the penguin to
him. It'll take me six days.
You'll have to get him in makeup
at 3 a.m. before his call for the
funeral at 10.
And
another nugget of bullshit,
which is Neo
is stuck somewhere between
the world of the Matrix
and the world of the machines.
How? I don't know.
Who cares? Because here's the thing.
These sequels use the one
as a catch-off for whatever
horseshit you want to throw
into this story. So it's just
oh, why is he stuck between these two worlds?
Why he's the one?
I don't know. He's the one.
Eventually, I mean, he's going to get out. I mean, he's the one.
What do I think he's going to do?
Opposite side of that. Well, how is
Agent Smith allowed to go into
the real one? Oh, he's the anti one.
Don't look out for him. He's even worse.
He doesn't double backwards on you. It's bad.
That's what we learn in this movie is
that Smith and Neo are
equals opposite sides of the coin they are why and it's well it's it's it's it's like because in that
first movie neo flies into smith to destroy him yeah yeah and apparently he's able to
regenerate after that anyway destroying the impact that that first movie had yeah yeah the
second movie really doesn't explain that he's just like mr anderson he's like did you miss
me something of you might have imprinted on
me yeah and because the one again it's just nonsense i got some of the one stuff on me mr anderson
mr anderson you left some of your goop inside me and not that like you know if you want to get your
villain in here man i love hugo weaving and all but get a bigger guy to play your villain
yeah and like move on since move but it's he is great i'm you mean instead of bringing agent smith back
Yes, because Aege Smith was a great villain in the first one.
He was so good.
Well, you know, they try to get you with that Frenchman.
Yeah.
They tried to, but you know what?
Steve, if you had played the video game, you would get it.
See how brutal he was.
Dude, Lambert Wilson wakes up every night and just cries about Christoph Walsh's career, right?
Like, it's just like, yeah.
That's a real fucking course correction.
Like, nope.
But this Merovingian or whatever they're calling him, like, you listen to this dude
talk in these movies, especially in
this third one. How do you stay awake?
It is just babble
talk. It's nonsense. Jibber
jabber. And it's something about
like he traffics
banished
programs and hides them
for money. And the camera keeps
like ambling over to Monica
Balucci's breasts as he's talking.
No, no, no, no. Over here. Over here.
Over here. I have more fucking nonsense philosophy.
She's another piece of shit useless
character. Yeah. Yeah. She's
it's there for
um looking visual effect well let's get this
yeah there you go it's 20
the movie's been on for 20 minutes we've had nothing
but expository dialogue that's gone
nowhere yep let's fucking haul ass
to a sex club man it's the matrix
I've been here for 20 minutes
yep and I've not seen one sex club yet
is this the evolution of like chat rooms
and stuff eventually oh it'll just be all sex
clubs just going to be a bunch of gimps all sex
humping together the interesting
like uh progression of clubs
that we get in these movies. The first one
before he's like
Propositioned by
Morpheus and Trinity and everything
he's just at like
what's sort of it's like a hacker
club you know it's like there's a bunch
of steampunkers in there dancing
and whatnot that second one
is when we get the Zion dance party
and then there is another
place that they go to if I'm not mistaken
well they go to his the club again
yeah they do go to the sex club
and the sex club is it the same sex club
Because there is, I guess, I guess when they went into the sex club in revolutions, it was on bondage night.
Yeah, it's just, well, here the, the leather daddy code split, and then it came back into itself.
So it was double, so everybody had to be a leather daddy at once.
It just is the worst.
It just, I don't know, why is, not even that that's bad.
It's just like, why is that in this movie?
What's that doing?
Hey, dude, what's that doing?
Because it's supposed to look cool.
But it doesn't make sense that this supposedly like highfalut and French guy and his like highfalut and French wife or Italian wife are, you know, these big so-and-soes within the Matrix are hanging out of this fucking basement dungeon that he owns?
And also why do you want to watch, I don't know, like if I'm a computer program, why don't want to watch other computer programs have sex?
Like I don't know.
It's useless.
It's not real.
That's the thing nobody ever says, hey, you know what, this isn't fucking real.
Well, it's real enough that Seifer wanted to be put back in.
True.
Ignorance is bliss, Steve.
Dude, the shadow of Joe Pantiliano hangs heavy over all these movies because he was a character that I could understand that I, you know, he was a bad guy.
I didn't like him, but, like, he had some fucking emotion behind his sentences, which was nice.
He had personality.
It was the Joe Panteliano stock personality, but his personality.
I feel like you attach yourself to this character because it's what you would be.
do in this world.
Easily.
Within seconds.
Of course.
Yeah,
you would fail to kill Tank.
You might get a lucky shot off on Dozer.
But Tank's coming back.
Like it a not, you son of a bitch, you're still going to burn.
Yeah, the spirit of them's just living on in these movies, too.
What happens to Tank?
Doesn't he die in the second one?
Is Tank even in the second one?
He doesn't die in the first one, I don't think.
Yeah, he's alive at the end of it because he saves the day.
I think the old Yeller him at the end.
Oh, shit, dude, was it something that happened in the Animatrix?
Oh, yeah.
Because I don't think he's in that second one, because the second one,
one of the Animatrix shorts is him having cancer.
Not like this.
Not like this.
Oh, man, that lady not like this.
Dude, just getting unplugged.
That sucks.
The process of getting unplugged seems pretty unpleasant.
What was her name, Switch?
Swift. Switch? Or the blonde woman? Yeah, I think it's Switch.
Switch. Well, I guess you could call her
Kill Switch now. And I think
Apoc is the other one. Yeah. Apoc's
a person. Or is he in Degeneration X? I can't get
them. I can't get them all. I get them always mixed up.
Now, we also have
like the amping up of like
the ins and outs of the military
rankings in the resistance.
And this is like
I love Star Wars
But like all the parts where you're sitting around
Watching the Rogue Squadrons
Plan shit
Nobody cared I don't give a shit
You know and to its credit it's quick
It is that's what I'm saying
Like I'm getting to it like in and you're out
You know what the plan is
Han Solo makes fun of somebody
And out we go
This is just minutes ticking by
Of your life
Listening to these people
Jab back and forth
Guess what?
Crimson Tide isn't fun unless you're on a fucking submarine.
And Gene Hackman, that needs to be there at the very least.
Yeah, this movie, you've got Harry Lennox.
Love the man, but he's not Hackman.
He's not Hackman, and he's also not hacking it with his dialogue.
Cornell West for no reason.
Is that actually Cornel West?
He's Councilman West in these movies.
They must have really liked him, I guess.
What's the deal with this ammo kid?
It's like so much the movie just decides, you know what?
Who needs Neo?
there's a young green behind the year's kid
that kind of wants to get into the Zionist military.
Well, he's the little rotten turd
from the first movie that Keanu Reeves.
Mouse or whatever is that.
Oh, the house gets killed.
Yeah, he was killed.
I think it's just a new character, I think.
In the second movie, he comes up to him
and he's like, thanks for saving my life.
I thought it was mouse.
Oh, maybe.
No, mouse gets killed.
Mouse is dead.
Maybe there's just another little white kid.
Yeah.
You know, their heads are all shaved.
I can't even possibly.
Maybe he's rat or something.
Yeah.
At some point in the second movie, when they get back to Zion, like at the beginning
of Reloaded, he's like, I just wanted to thank you for saving my life and blah, blah, blah.
So I guess like just the overall saving of his life.
Right before they get down to that fucking raid where they get, like the rave where they all fuck.
Oh, yeah.
Dude, that's a real fucking orgy.
If you keep coming, cutting back to that thing, it's just like, it's the last night,
the machines are going to fucking wipe us out, dude.
Oh, yeah. It's just your hands there, fuck it.
You know, the light's not going to stay on too much longer.
I don't know who's where, what's where.
Just get ready for fluid.
And that's...
Oh, my God.
Chris Kavanaugh stars and get ready for fluid.
To your point, condoms do not exist in this post.
Why would they?
Of course they don't exist.
Food barely exists.
You guys just made me choose the side of the machine.
Exactly.
Don't you want to fucking buy it?
be Joe Pentleano.
Eating that steak with his chewing with his mouth open like a horse.
It's disgusting.
Yes.
He's a disgusting person in that movie.
But I would totally do it in a heartbeat.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, absolutely.
You see what they eat in these other movies.
It's like oatmeal with snot in it.
Yeah.
Actually, he was reserved.
If I was in that situation, I'd be like ordering five plates.
I'd be doing a real Monty Python.
It's just a dinnaman.
If you are a computer simulation, can you become morbidly obese?
You know, for some reason there's no fat people in Zion, which I have, I take umbrage with.
Everyone is sexy as hell, though.
Yeah, it's just like, come on, there's got to be some, even if food supplies are less, there are fat people still.
But there's got to be fat people in the Matrix, right?
I mean, I don't think they really, do they even show?
I didn't see one hog in the whole thing.
You see some dadbods, but like, not anything beyond.
Some dad buds are you.
Look at you watching entertainment tonight.
No, it was people.com.
That's even worse.
That's not, that's not, I left the TV on the channel.
That's, I went to a website.
I intentionally clicked something.
But yeah, there's no fat people in the Matrix.
It wouldn't make sense because you're only getting like,
they're rationing off whatever proteins,
the machines are giving you in your little fucking space pod anyway.
Here's the question, though, is the computer system of the Matrix
and you're, sure, maybe you in your,
VAT in the real world are thin
as a rail. Oh, yeah. But you've eaten too
many pizza megabytes.
Too many
cakes of Zah. Yeah. So it's
like San Andreas when you can get fat
in that game. I guess so. I'll take
your word for it. I haven't played it. Dude.
Yeah. Grand Tafoto. That was
the dumbest decision
ever made by video games.
Oh, you better go to the gym. Your
criminals getting out of shape.
Give me a break. Oh, give me a
break. Just run around this place
for a while so that he gets his exercise in.
Dude, your character, if it got too fat,
couldn't run as fast and would get caught by police easier.
What does it matter to be fat in that world?
Your weapon is a car, basically, right?
At least that's how I play it.
Oh, that's the only way to play those games.
I don't even know where we were.
I mean, like, he gets out of this train station for who cares, right?
Well, that's a thing that was kind of unexplained.
Like, they eventually get the train to him.
Right.
Because they make a deal with this Italian or the French gentleman, you know, because he runs the train guy.
Is everybody keeping up with this horse shit?
Yes, that's how they do it.
They make a deal.
Let's make a deal.
And somehow, for whatever reason, which it doesn't hold true to me, the price that they have to pay isn't him shitting on somebody.
Or at the very least, like a glass coffee table should be involved.
Yeah, something's going on.
A real, like, upper crush.
I've always wanted
to do this
kind of a thing
because I'm a perverted
computer program
I mean he's running
all those clubs
oh the pervert
computer programs
what are we doing
they're out there
yeah they are
they're out there right now
yeah he the train guy
comes in and like
has superpowers
and punches Neo through a wall
and he's like
you're gonna be here forever
man
dude was I the only one
thinking about Vincent
Chivalian ghost.
Yes, absolutely.
Get off my trade.
Roar, I'm throwing garbage at you.
Get out, get out.
Oh, I remembered what it is.
The Frenchman demands they bring him the eyes of the oracle.
Yeah.
And I'll help you get Neo out or whatever.
But then it's weird.
I noticed just rewatching it today that, like, we just cut to a scene where Carrienne
Moss is standing over Keanu Reeves.
he just wakes up like whoa
there's some nonsense where they do
a Mexican standoff where she puts a gun
to his head right Monica Bluch is like
oh don't she'll do it
she's in love and
love is the most important emotion
in all of the world oh man
there's that scene in the second one where she's
like telling Keanu Reeves like
I'll help you out I'll help you find
the key maker if you kiss me
like you kiss her yeah and
Karian Moss like puts a gun up to her
and then she's like no you
must make out with me so
I can show you where this little Asian
man is. It is the only way to
save the world is to kiss me.
Which is amazing that even in the Matrix
she's like living this
high in society life and she's got a rotten
ass husband that has
wandering eyes.
There's this whole nonsense where she's like, look
at the lipstick on your collar
or whatever and you're just like, what the
fuck? He's a computer. You're a computer.
Everyone's a computer. There's lipstick
on your JPEG.
But both these sequels, the first one doesn't do it to my knowledge that I remember.
I just, we watched them all too.
But the sequels, love this, love that, the power of love.
Yep.
It's a Harry Lewis video.
It's insane.
It's all this shit with like, like, with Trinity and Neo where it's like, oh, you love each other.
I can tell just by looking at you.
You're looking at a.
computer again.
They're just all programs. What are we
talking about? And that was
like a really nice cap to the first one.
It was them like it was kind of, I mean it's
atypical, like it was
going to happen at any, at the end of any
action movie. Sure. It's too sexy
white people in a Hollywood film. It's going
to happen. You got to get down to fucking sometime.
What I didn't need was it to
become the entire driving force
of these two other movies.
And that's all it is. The first movie was about
Morpheus and Neo, which is a much
more interesting relationship.
That's my problem with these movies, especially this
third one. Larry Fishburn takes a fucking
backseat, and I can't stand it.
Right, they, the Obi-1 canobi him.
Totally. At least in the second one, he has the
awesome, like, freeway chase.
Yeah, he's got a samurai sword and stuff.
He's kicking ass in that second movie for that
scene, at least. He does nothing
in this movie. He's just sitting. He's wearing that
loose sweater. There's one point
he's asked to co-pilot
a ship. That's what he's doing.
Because, nothing.
With Jada Pickett Smith.
The best in the business, according to flight manual, whatever.
Matrix Weekly.
Yeah.
So whatever, he fucking wakes up and decides to get on the right train and goes there or whatever.
Like, they come and save him something.
This is what's, man, it's so annoying.
It's impossible to move on to this movie because nothing fucking happens.
But here's the thing is because Larry Fishburn and Trinity go to the Oracle and they're like, what's the scoop?
And she's like, I don't know.
the space between the spaces.
And they're like, that's stupid.
Let's get him on the train.
And then when he wakes up, and they're like,
so what's going on?
He's like, I got to go talk to the Oracle.
I was like, we just fucking did it.
We just did it.
You were just there.
Yeah.
Couldn't you have fucking Trinity take a message to him?
Oh, no.
That's okay.
Please show the car ride over because this movie's only two hours and 18 minutes anywhere.
There is totally a car ride where the, like, Link is just like, did you find him?
And Larry Fishburn's like, well, you can't tell.
right here and like it's just
Keanu Reeves looking out a window
while getting a ride. Just hold on.
We're going to catch the sunset here for a little bit.
Hold it.
Hold it.
I can't get a Matrix cab.
I don't have a fucking bitcoins
or whatever. And the whole
thrust of this thing is
like Keanu Reeves
as Neo has to get
to the source.
Yep. The source of all the machine
power and whatnot.
as prophesied by whoever
who gives a shit
which is the a which should be the a story
right yes yes because that's what
everything is contingent upon even like buying a ticket to see
Keanu Reeves fly around and do shit at this point
but it's the it's the sea story at best
yeah because it gets no attention we're having like
we're having committee meetings both in committees
and outside in in the fucking spaceship it's like
well how many spaceships do we need to go to this
back to the city to
Dave everybody. We need to give Neo one, but that'll get us killed. And is everyone just
stretching out their sweaters? Dude, how? Like, that's what they must do. You get a nice
sweater from the, from the, from the military. And like, I guess based on your rank, they
stretch it out more and more. You instantly, if you're starting out in the military, like, you
have to, like, stretch it over your knees. Like, you are wearing a comforter. And, you know,
I love the man, but this is, like, 20 minutes of Idris Elba piloting the ship in Prometheus.
He's a fine actor and everything, but, like, those are boring scenes when he's just like, oh, well, we've got to go to the planet.
There's something weird with the planet.
I don't know if that's a planet.
I don't like watching people drive places.
That's why that movie, Locke, I wanted to slit my own throat because it's 85 minutes of that jerk just driving around solving work problems on a fucking speaker phone talking about, oh, how you're going to pour cement, pour me to sleep.
the Jada Bigot Smith comes around
and she's like I'm the best
and everyone's like well how
I'm the best that's why
you didn't play the video game
yeah exactly they say something about
she did it before possibly in a video game
right that's how she earned her rose
tinted sunglasses
she's the most powerful
sunglasses in the known
matrix verse
dude she's looking through rose colored glasses
everything about this situation looks much better to
Yeah, if you, and if you are the best, you get a cape coat.
But only the best gets a cape coat.
Holy shit.
Neo wearing this cape coat?
Oh, yeah.
I don't know.
The first movie didn't have that, right?
Well, I think you get that at the end.
It's a ceremonial cape coat.
It is because that's when he jumps up at the end.
What an asshole.
Right before.
This is like someone wearing their dress uniform all the time.
Yeah.
Yep.
It's kind of a fatigue day, Neo.
No, no, no.
Dressed to the nines.
But, yeah.
Yeah, at the end of the first movie, when he jumps up right his rage against the machine hits,
he's got his little cape coat on.
No pop songs in this movie, by the way.
Big problem for me.
No new metal.
Couldn't even afford new metal.
Couldn't even be bothered with new metal.
See, that's the thing.
The first song had pop music and it worked better.
This is like orchestral nonsense, self-important bullshit.
Yes, absolutely.
And it's not the...
It's all Wagner.
Top to bottom.
You know what's amazing?
The end credits of that second movie, because I was waiting to see if there was a little stinger, which there was.
But right at the end of the credits, there is a Paul Oakenfold remix of Dave Matthews bands When the World Ends.
Kill Me Yesterday.
I'm sitting there, like, it's late at night.
The credits are, like, going through.
And I start hearing, like, what sounds like Dave Matthews, but we're scratching all over.
it like what is this nonsense sure enough it's paul oakenfold taking a dump on something
not even something i give a shit about but you made a bad song sound worse yeah you could still
smell the shit the first one had the prodigy for crying out loud because that's music hackers
listen to exactly and it's a movie about hackers so all right jade's the jada picket smith is the
best yes she's going to be the pilot of one ship yeah they're going to give the a whole other ship
to Neo and Trinity
to have their bizarre
religious adventure
that nobody really believes in.
And it's like
there's some fighting going on.
There's a dude
who's like vaguely Australian
and where is this guy
from, this third captain,
the white guy with the gray hair?
Oh.
I feel like he's popped up
in a couple things
playing similar military figures.
Again, like he's a pretty important character.
He's the guy that's like,
he's the hard-nosed whatever
that's like,
we can't give up these resources.
It's war, man.
Get anybody.
Damien Lewis.
Get Damien Lewis, get me fucking Josh, Josh Charles, Josh Malina.
Oh, man, you're not enough talking to talk for Josh Charles.
Yeah, you're turning on Josh Charles now.
How do you like him now?
I would fucking pay money to see Josh Charles in this movie.
And I hate his guts.
What about like a correspondence with a character?
Oh, I know that guy?
You know who could say the dialogue in this movie and sound like he's vaguely believing it as John Voight?
Get John Void in this movie.
Yes.
As some sort of highfalutin military commander.
Michael Ironside.
Oh, he'll spout some nonsense like you wouldn't believe.
You put Michael Ironside in this movie.
Suddenly, I think the resistance can win.
Yeah, they don't have a chance until Ironside shows up, which, by the way, recently rewatch scanners, he's fucking phenomenal.
He's great, man.
Well, he just shows up, but they're like, he's a robot.
Like, no, I'm just here to hell.
Oh, no.
Oh, no, they're murdering me.
That's something this world doesn't have.
Androids.
No.
No, androids infiltrating.
Because it's all, you know, it's a poor future.
And that just boars me.
It is.
You need shiny flying cars and sports almanacs.
Just in a post-apocalyptic where we're all fucking just scraping by and loose sweaters.
Yeah, we're eating garbage.
We're handing down sweaters through generations.
It's not a delightful image.
And every time they're getting back to Zion, it's all like, ah, home, sweet home.
And I'm like, I'm literally.
Living in the Matrix.
Fuck it.
Screw your oatmeal snot food that I have to eat.
I mean, I appreciate the orgies, but...
Oh, well, the orgies are fantastic.
They're wonderful and all, but like, no, not for me.
At this point, does it matter to break free from the Matrix and reclaim the Earth?
It's fucking garbage.
You live and die seemingly the same rate.
You can age until old age in the Matrix and then die.
Like, what does it matter?
Does it matter to know the truth?
And now, by the time that you've all, like,
uploaded yourself with every kind of knowledge in the universe,
you could go back and become a billionaire, like, tomorrow.
Do you get that game genie?
Get that Matrix Game Genie, rig that shit.
Here's the thing, fellas.
These are all the questions that the machines want you to start asking.
Oh, I see.
That's how you follow.
Right, I should live in the basement of Earth eating garbage.
because it's cursed earth up top
You can't do shit
Yeah it's nothing
Waiting to be slaughtered by a bunch of metal birds
But this is
This is what they have
Alfred Hitchcock's metal birds
It's just the tippy Hedron movie
With a Metallica soundtrack
That's dumb
No but what they don't think of
Because we get a glimpse of it
At the end of this movie
Is that like
If you get above the nonsense
like it's still nice out, we need
some shield-esque airship
things. Why not? Get those going.
We've got some pretty good technology. We've got all sorts
of saws and drills and
propellers for no reason.
How are they making these ships, by the way?
I have no idea. Yeah, you got those ships.
It's Craptown down there.
It's 2100, whatever.
What is going on in space?
Yeah, we're not talking about space in this
movie, and I feel that's because this is a future
in where we focus more on
making dumb robots that can think,
as opposed to thinking about shooting for the stars.
Why aren't the robots shooting for the stars?
Now, they said in the first movie
that we, the human race,
kind of nuked the sky
because the machines depended on solar energy.
That's why they have humans' batteries.
It was a botched plan.
It was probably conceived by President Rick Santorum.
Ooh, that's talking about dystopia.
Dude, put me in the Matrix.
I don't know what.
You know what?
Don't even put me in the Matrix.
Put me in the fucking grass.
But if the machines just got above the stratosphere, they don't need the fucking matrix.
They don't need humans at all.
What is going on?
Suck up one generation's worth of energy and get the fuck out of there.
Well, there's some weird thing.
Get a fucking air purifier.
Build an air purifier.
If that's the case.
Well, it's weird because when they're on the tail end of their religious pilgrimage with the ship
and they're trying to get through and, you know, Trinity's like, well, or need,
says like fly up to the sky or whatever so trinity flies up all these robots like fall off for
some reason yeah i don't know if it's like a temperature thing like it gets too cold up there or what
the deal is imagine if if trinity and neo had to fly to mars we got to defeat them at mars that's where
they all you're like yeah why would the machines i just can't believe they're down earth
are the machines capable of understanding like that they're on a planet i mean they're genius machines
right? I guess so. They made
their own planet inside a computer
program. They become self-aware, so
they get like the entire history of
the planet. They've got it all. Yeah, they've got it
at all. They know what NASA is. They have
all NASA's computers. They've read Codd
backwards and forward, man. They know everything. And they have read
Infinite Jest. Yeah. I'll tell you
what, those robots definitely read Infinite Jest.
Run InfiniteJest.t.T.
Trying
to remember outdated PC
file formats. Oh, sorry.
e-pub.
We shouldn't have destroyed the Earth before
George R.R. Martin's
finished Game of Thrones.
Right?
Yeah.
So they should...
Well, then a bunch of robots can do some robot
GOT role play.
Oh, no, but that's the thing.
It's like every cycle of the Matrix.
It only gets to like season five
a Game of Thrones.
And then it fucking crashes again.
And they're like, God fucking damn it.
And that's when they reboot the Matrix
to be Westeros.
Yes.
And then there's, let's see,
how John Snow will fare this round.
Why is it that the machines are cool
with giving humanity a shot?
Like the whole thing about like the cycles of the matrix
is such that like in every matrix cycle,
the one comes around and the whole thing is the one has to go
find the fucking keymaster and the key master
lets them through the door where he talks to the architect
and the architect is like, hey,
you can either reset the whole thing
or I can destroy the matrix and they reset it.
But, like, why have that option?
You could either reset it or remove the cartridge and blow on.
Get some rubbing alcohol on a Q-tip and get all that gunk out of there.
Supposedly, it's all for battery power.
Yes.
It's ridiculous.
I mean, the first movie's good, but the whole premise is faulty.
It's incredibly fault.
It's incredibly false.
The first thing that's so crazy is when he gets, like, when he actually wakes up in the jelly.
Yeah.
And, waking up in the jelly, by the way.
Oh, man, I've been there.
And all the stuff like
detaches from him.
Yes.
The machine doesn't kill him.
But she's like, I got lost another one.
Because what that is...
I'm on break.
Just like not dealing with this email right now.
Gonna leave that up to X-0-7-4.
That's his problem.
Fuck you, boss bot.
Fill this format out.
Give me shit about taking to lunch.
What that is, though,
is they also let them die because they, like, feed, like...
They feed on the death jelly.
The dead...
The dead get turned into jelly, and they're fed to the babies.
Yeah, it's like, oh, toad's fucked up, bro.
It's, like, crazy cannibalism shit.
I'm surprised they don't have those wacky monkey brain diseases.
Oh, I bet they do.
They probably...
Entire crops were lost.
So...
So, they're going on their religious journey,
and you think that's what the movie's going to be.
Yes.
And we wasted 41 minutes in a train station going nowhere.
And now it's like we're going.
Now it's all about preparing for the battle of Zion and holy shit.
We got to keep the dock together.
And it's this old general and this young kid and they're all in fucking Gundam suits and I wanted to throw.
And I don't know a single one of them.
I don't know anybody at this party.
Well, this dude, this general Mifune just comes out of nowhere as if, again, I bet he was a real high up player at the Cracker factory in the video.
game. Oh, in the Anim Matrix. He's the main
character. Is he? No, I
don't. Oh. Well, because this, they're like,
oh, it's General Mafune. Well, fucking
whoopty-do? And everyone's, like, kissing
his feet. And I'm like, who's that guy?
And he's apparently leading
this whole army of mech warriors.
You know what Star Wars had the good grace to do?
He's like, you know what? We got a boring general
character. He's going to spit a lot of exposition
and tell you a lot about military strategy.
I got an idea. Make him a
calamari. You know what I mean?
Like, make him a big fat squid. So he's got a
fish fish. He'll be interesting at least to look
at. Yeah, exactly. I'm going to tell you what to
do. Make this guy a fish.
Crawfish me, a general.
But yeah, this guy's just
bark in orders, and then Harry Lennox's
barking orders, and it's just like
57 minutes of people yelling at each other.
And then there's the, it's
dozer's wife or so, no, Link's
wife. Link's wife and Dozer's
widow. And Gina Torres
from Firefly.
She knows she doesn't play. She knows
something to do about a dirty future.
Yeah, that's another poor people
future, Firefly. Yeah, and you know, I can't
believe that these sequels get
I get to know Dozer's
brother-in-law.
Dude, okay.
The shadow of Dozer hangs heavy
over this entire film. Dude, all of
their dialogue is like, well, what would
dozer think of this? If you
were doing this for Dozer, wouldn't you
join the resistance? Dude, Dozer
is barely a character of the first movie.
He yells
when tank is shot and then he gets shot end of dozer i actually think the orgy in the first one
or the second one rather is dozer is like it's the dozer prayer oh yeah we have to fall
shit we're celebrating it's a fuck ritual yeah yeah blood sugar sex magic magic magic sex magic
i'm gonna put a sock on my dick hold on and i mean literally the next 30 minutes is people in
Mech suits screaming while firing white guns at nothing.
Dude, this General Mufune, 99.7% of this dude's dialogue is, like, while he fires these guns.
It's like, what is the directing that the Wachowski's are doing for this?
So put your arms up like this and then just scream while looking just to the right of the camera.
And then they spend so much time on the Bve or whoever this kid is.
is getting ready to make an ammo run
that happens at the very end of it.
I'm like, I could not give a shit less about it.
I'm praying for his death.
And we've got the other two ladies
with the bazooka, and that's boring.
And all these fucking sentinels
are moving like sentient bees in a cartoon.
Oh, yeah.
I almost had a heart attack.
Because it's like they'll form an arrow.
Like, go this way.
Turned to a big fist and they smash the control center.
And these sentinels, you know,
when you see them attacking ships,
in the other movies.
They bring out the little laser cannons
and start shooting up the ships.
For some reason, you can't use those on people.
We got to, oh, I'm going to claw your face
with my little razor hands.
Dude, they tear up that general's face
something good.
He looks like when you get like barbecue spare ribs
at Chinese takeout,
that's what his face looks like.
It's a Kruger death.
He gets attacked by like a million of them.
There should be nothing left,
but a chattering skeleton.
You'd think.
they just cut his head off instantly almost, right?
It would be pretty cool.
There is one dude.
These things are how to kill humans, right?
They know where the fucking organs are.
They don't leave anybody a lot.
This would be more chilling.
It's that little ammo kids running around like,
oh, I got to get this to Shiro Mofuni general.
And then his head plops down, right?
Oh, it falls out of the mecks suit under the ground.
And it's just like, and you like focus on it.
It's like, it's a chilling moment.
Instead, we got him going,
Ah, my face!
My face is cut.
Shut up something good.
Because so it's 45 minutes in the middle of this movie is this battle.
And Jada Pinkett Smith is driving the thing back and she's got the EMP.
Because that's the whole thing in all these movies is all you do is hit an EMP and then like we'll lose cable reception for a while.
But it's cool because all those robots are dead.
Right.
And so we're waiting on that.
And she's doing like the impossible flight thing that no one's, you know, believe that she could do.
Well, it's amazing because they're all sitting around the cockpit like 12 dudes.
Dude, sit down in the cockpit, like, oh, man, she's going to make it.
And then they start getting attacked.
Oh, we should get to the gun stations.
I'm like, why aren't you there anyway?
Like, why would you have to run there?
Yeah, prepare yourselves.
Now that they're bombing us with drills, because we live underground.
Dude, these drills that just fall down once they're done drilling,
the fucking Dr. Robotnik drills, that does all the little birds inside them.
That'd be great.
Mega man villain should start coming out.
Now we're talking.
Want to cut 15 minutes out of this movie?
just have
fucking Jada Pickett Smith
and Lawrence Fishburn show up
before the battle even starts
and maybe we get some major deaths
Yeah
In that way
You gotta start losing some of those guys
It's a huge crew
And I don't know any of them
Harold Parano makes it through this movie
And I'm like you know what
That's bullshit
Dozers brother-in-law
Makes it through
That and it should be the opposite
Just
Yes
Due to the simple science of foreshadow, right?
Because, like, the second movie, like, she's all pissed off.
Like, you're going back out on the Nebuchadnezzar.
Well, Jesus Christ, you just got here.
You know, and he's like, we got to bury Dozer tonight.
Well, one, we got to do it for Dozers.
So let's not forget, we're doing it for Dozers.
I got these E-Tabs for Dozer's funeral because we're going to have a night.
I actually had the thought that I wished I was doing Ecstasy watching these sequels.
Oh, sure.
It would probably be pretty cool.
just dealing with that.
Well, that was part of the Wokowski Sibling's whole plan
is that you had to watch
all these movies. You had to play the video
game. Take ecstasy,
watch the animatrix, and then do the whole
fucking thing again, and then you understand it.
Then you truly unlock the
secret of the Matrix. They were Roland Mali
directing this, right? Oh, they must have
been. Must have been. All over the place.
But the whole thing with Harold Peronauts set up, like, you better
come back to me, you better come back to me.
Dude has to be sacrificing
himself for Zion.
Or Morpheus sacrifices himself for him.
Like, you don't need, like, why not...
Since Lawrence Fishburn does nothing in this movie,
you might as well kill him off in a heroic fashion.
Yeah.
He should at least get that.
Instead, he shakes Keanu Reeves' hand and gives him a hug.
And that's it.
That's it.
Real heroes.
Oh, and then he gets yelled at.
So here's, like, Morpheus.
Like, this, like, great mythological hacker
who turns out to be, like, the leader of this, like,
resistance faction, and this not the other thing.
Well, no, Keanu Reeves is Jesus.
He's like the John the Baptist.
Yeah, yeah, I guess so did, yes.
But then, by the time this third movie's going on,
he's getting yelled at by Jada Pinkett Smith
because he can't use a touchpad fast enough.
Like, she's talking about, like, you know,
adjust these coordinates or whatever,
and then it turns out like he's not doing it fast enough,
and she's like, keep up, you old piece of shit.
And he's like, I thought I was once the star of this friend.
Sorry, Miss Pinkett Smith.
Something changed, and he became, like, pathetic biff.
He's like, why don't you wash that goddamn,
spaceship, Morpheus, you loser.
Well, they kind of, like, religiously persecute him
throughout the rest of the movie because...
Oh, he's getting dumped on this whole time.
So this whole thing for 45 minutes,
do we see the fucking trauma of the little boy
and the fucking little drummer boy, and he finally wins?
And then, like, Harry Lennox comes out,
he's like, well, that was for nothing.
And I'm like, wait, really?
And they're like, well, because they're coming anyway,
and it's all terrible.
And, like, everyone's yelling at fucking Morpheus,
and he's like, but Neo will save us all.
And they're like, yeah, right.
Churchy.
Someone throws a rocket is.
head. That's an interesting thing about
the world of Zion is it
appears like organized religion has
died. Sure. Why would you live
at garbage? Right. What
what do you have? What loving God? Yeah. But
it's funny because there's definitely one point
I don't know if it's Jada Pinkett Smith or it might
be like one of the other randot dudes.
Like something falls on the floor and someone just
goes, well Jesus H. Christ. And I was like
he's not here. Well, Neo
H. Christ.
But someone just drops a Jesus
H. Christ and I was like, that's, why did you leave
that in he there's no place for that in this i mean i feel like so many people so many of the like
third tier characters are like contest winners you know what i mean like you beat the game with the high
yeah with the high score and then you get to be in the movie yeah oh this just reminds me
apropos of absolutely nothing did anybody have a matrix screensaver nope no oh i totally did
oh really nobody oh that sucks so let's get back to the story anyone cares about sure neo on his ship
Right. Bain, who's this character
that happens in the second movie that nobody cares about.
Is it at this point that Agent Smith
takes out the Oracle in the Matrix?
Oh, that's earlier in the movie.
That's only 30 minutes into the movie.
He just rolls up.
He does this. Now I'm the virus.
Yeah, I mean, well, because he starts that in the second movie,
like just assimilating every person that's in the Matrix.
And he finally makes his way to the Oracle and breaks in.
And she just like lets it happen
Because it's all part of the grander plan
Yeah, it's an Obi-Wan Kenobi death
But he lets out this cackle
And it's embarrassing for all the movies
Yeah
So amazing
Because he's, I mean this is like the Darth Vader
No in episode 3
And there's a quickening here
Not many deaths in the Matrix
Get a quickening
Oh you're right
Because the wind's going all over the place
Yeah I guess that's because she actually is
Like this real oracle
And like he just goes
and it just goes on
and we are right in his big
New Zealander face
and he's just laughing
it's a it's an evil laugh
I mean what what place does that have in any movie really
no it's got a place in every movie
I wish it's got a place in every Vincent Price movie
oh also a great
he's hambo he's got a fucking ham bone
in his mouth this whole movie oh absolutely
the first one he's very subdued he's a computer
So, like, that's, and that's what makes him so terrifying.
And the rest of it is just like, ah, he's kind of like Mark Metcalf in the fucking
Twisted Sister video.
Is that a pledge pin, Mr. Anderson?
The awesome thing that it's actually legitimately awesome that happens in this.
Yeah, I have to actually legitimize the awesomeness in parts of this movie
because it's all just dull turds, dull gray turds for two and a half hour.
but in the scene right before the Oracle gets assimilated
because she gets she's charged with hanging on to the daughter of that
immigrant couple that are getting put on a train to wherever
so she's like hanging on to this girl because she
apparently might also be special of course they don't dip into that too much
I should have read the comics got the facts I didn't get any of it you know
but there's it starts with like she's helping the Oracle make a batch of cookies
yeah so then like so then like she
goes off with the protector
there, whatever that's... Seraph. Yeah, Seraph is
there, and she goes off with him. So then
she's like, the oracle's like, hey,
what happened to the little girl? And one of the
Agent Smith comes out and he's like,
these cookies are delicious.
I'm like, you fucking assimilated
that child. Awesome.
Slash, why couldn't I see it happen?
Just a little girl get Hugo
weaving's hand stuck in her.
And then she expands into a
Hugo Green. I feel that's why.
You can't make it grow. They
didn't have that effect.
Oh,
a little tiny,
a little tiny Hugo weaving.
That'd be great.
My God.
That's the one thing I never knew I needed until right now.
If I just had a little agent Smith running around at this movie.
Oh, totally.
Mr.
Anderson.
Yes.
Imagine the last Neo fight with all the agent Smiths and then just a little one
gets on his back and start stabbing them.
Yes.
Oh, well, on the contrast to that,
How about a giant agent Smith?
Why not a giant?
I feel like there was like some sort of possibly like an original draft of this third screenplay that was like, well, then they all just get together and it's a big monster he's got to fight.
It was two bad choices and they didn't choose that one.
Here's the thing is this movie gets so dumb.
Just give me Godzilla Agent Smith walking around the Matrix, fighting.
He's like opening windows like Mr. Anders.
not in here let's
go to the next one
and by the way at this point
like everyone in the Matrix is just
dead right like he literally
assimilates everybody we don't get a population
we're only in like a fake
New York the entire time like is it
more than that is there can you do
international travel in the Matrix
clearly they have France
in some capacity imagine you're watching the news
and it's like well America or
Australia or wherever this takes place has just been
it's all one guy
now. Like, the world
is over. The crops have been long.
Mr. Anderson, I am now the president
of the United States. And I am
the treasurer. And I'm the
treasurer's wife.
And yes, we are
all having sex with each other.
Certainly, Mr. Anderson.
Wait a second. I'm pregnant.
You're saying...
Breaking news.
President Smith is the best.
Reminded me of the
astronaut's wife. And now I'm thinking
in the Matrix, is there a space
program and is there a space
of the Matrix? That's what I'm thinking, dude.
Is this like a Truman Show situation
where that boat's going to rip through the screen?
It might be. It depends
on how much code they've written, I guess.
I know. How many hours
of Red Bull they're on? Mr. Anderson,
come down to the learning annex. I'm
doing Hamlet.
Mr. Anderson, if you're free
at 1135 on Saturday,
my new improv team is playing a show
in the basement of an Italian restaurant.
We need Neo's voicemail.
Let's go through them all.
That's what this movie's lacking.
Mr. Anderson, it's Agent Smith's birthday today.
No, you know the one down from 14th Street.
The funny one.
Mr. Anderson, this is your doctor,
Dr. Agent Smith.
calling to tell you, Mr. Anderson.
The results are in and you've tested positive.
There'd be another one calling about another birthday.
Oh, on and on.
Mr. Anderson, it's your grandmother, Agent Smith.
Why don't you ever come here?
I don't know how to fix my VCR, Mr. Anderson.
Mr. Anderson, it's your ex-girlfriend, Agent Smith.
My father's in the hospital.
It would meet a lot if you could just call me for a minute.
Oh, that Facebook would be so boring.
Man, those updates would be great, though.
They all use the same profile picture.
Mr. Anderson, just calling to let you know the good news.
We're pregnant.
Mr. Anderson, I would enjoy if you would stop drunkenly texting me at night.
Just move on.
Mr. Anderson, just move on.
There are plenty of other agent
Smiths out there.
Oh, man, did you hear about...
Oh, man, did you hear in Iron Man 2,
they're replacing Agent Smith with Agent
Smith?
I personally don't think that casting will gel.
It's awkward watching Iron Man 1,
and Agent Smith says, next time, baby.
And you know that Agent Smith is just going to replace him in the next one.
What's your favorite Hulk?
The one played by Agent Smith or the one played by Agent Smith?
You know, it's really annoying because in these Avengers movies,
they just keep casting Mr. Smiths.
How about you try casting a couple of Mr. Smiths in these movies?
Oh, my God.
I just love the idea of now.
Now, they're controlling Hollywood now, and they're doing all types of stuff.
That's the weird thing.
There's no, like, celebrity culture in the Matrix.
No.
That would have been cool.
I mean, there must be because Joe Pantliano wants to become an actor.
He's like, oh, make you a little throwaway guy.
Want to be a millionaire.
Let me make me an actor.
That piece of shit.
It's so rude.
It's so rude to chew with your mouth.
We didn't even get to the part where his eyes get burned out.
I want to get there.
Oh, yeah, sure.
So, Bain, Mr. Agent Smith takes over this guy, Bain.
It's useless.
He's doing a really bad impression.
It's in the last.
movie, by the way. And again, like, make this character
a woman, make him, like, an African-American woman talking
like, you know, Hugo Weaving, that's fucking chilling.
But then are we using a dub, though?
Yeah, well, I mean, people could do an impression.
We just did a really bad impression.
Oh, that's true. That's true. That's how this guy
got the job doing a bad impression, a Hugo Weaving.
So he stows away, and we all know how I feel about stowaway.
And now, to be clear, this is...
He didn't belong.
Agent Smith is now in the real world in this guy.
Yes, he's some... It happens in the second.
movie where this dude Bain is
trying to use the phone to get called out
of the Matrix and Agent Smith
starts finger fucking him like right
before it happens. Yep.
Then he wakes up and kills Leo McGarry's
daughter. Oh yeah! Oh yeah!
Oh yeah!
Good pull.
Agent Smith just like in the guys of this guy
Bain gets to do a fight with Neo
and burns
sorry burns his
fucking eyes out of his head
with like an open piece of wire.
Oh, man, that's pretty gruesome.
That's some gnarly shit.
It's like just burnt over and you know those little baby browns pursed.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
His face looks like when you split open a pop-tart and all the red goo like that.
It's just all over his eyeballs.
And he kills, he kills this guy, Bain.
What does he do?
Well, the thing is he can, he can now he can Daredevil see because he's the one.
So he sees, he looks at Bain and he,
he sees Agent Smith.
Just laughing at it.
Playing the human torch.
Oh, he crushes his head with a fucking
pipe and we don't get to see it.
We only see the computer version, which sucks,
because it looks like a real fucking George
Washington situation.
Wait, a George
Washington? The David Gordon Green
movie. Oh.
Not something that happened to the first
president.
Or he did to somebody else.
He like breaks apart, like,
pixels like some Atari
game like it's just
like Pac-Bion
like Pac-Man exploding
so he's dead
and like the grossest part
we just talked about grizzled it is
with his fucking eyeballs and shit
yeah he puts a dirty rag on top
of this thing
ew it's a dirty rag
I think pulled from a dirty
stretched out sweater
it's like where
it's infected now it's been a rag on this ship
it's been cleaning this ship
well the one died of an
infections. He had sepsis
in his eyeballs. Everything was
going right until he put that rag on.
Well, that prophecy would have come true, but put
that rag on. Well, we've seen
five before this guy, so there'll be another
way. That's how they all die. They always get an infection.
Just fighting for this shit. When you
know it's just going to cycle back, what
is the point? Then they get into a car
accident. Oh, man, do
they ever?
And this is, it's really
really, really dumb. I do think, by
the way, that that scene where they go up
is kind of cool. It is cool. It's a nice
moment of like, oh wow, like you see
the whole world for a second. And it's a
it works. And she gets to see it and
it's like, holy shit, I've never seen that before
in real life. It's cool. It's a very
nice moment. And the whole thing is they say
when they're announcing they're going to go
to Robot City
or whatever they're calling it.
They're like, no one's ever gotten
no humans ever gotten past this
certain part or whatever. So they get there
and all these sentinels are jumping all over
them and everything. And that's what they shake them. They
juke up into the sky and they shake them off and whatever and then the plane or the little spaceship
stalls out yeah and they crash into just a tower of other robot things and they're stuck there
and this is the big like trinity death scene and she's got a bunch of like rods in her like uh that
priest in the omen yeah rebar all over and so you think like you crashed into this tower of robots
there's other robots swimming after you
but she's got to take 10 minutes
to talk about like
remember all that stuff that happened
in those other two movies
you remember that
and I'm like dude
counter Reeves like you gotta get out of there man
they're gonna tear you apart
they don't know who's in that ship
they're just mad that you crashed into
robot Trump Tower
throw her at the robots and make a break for
it exactly also now left
and right in this scene he's just
force pushing everybody all these robots
like oh yeah yeah for no
reason and it's like I guess because the first one it caused him out of a coma like that's at least like oh wow the you know the human mind right he wasn't able to he didn't know what it was going to be and that's when they call it touching the source like he touched the source whatever but yeah he is just downing these things left and right and uh so this is their big goodbye and whatever and this is like again they are making out in these movies like a couple of teenagers they are it's ridiculous and even like she's dying and it's like really emotional
whatever and it's like well goodbye and it's just like and i'm like robots are coming for you
come on that was the this was carrie ann's big goodbye to hollywood i mean no one ever saw her again
no because she actually died in this movie oh it's oh she's uh yeah not been in too much
she's uh in stuff but not you know yeah well you know listen you got that matrix money man
she's fine.
Well, the problem is they keep putting Agent Smith
and everything
and it's just like, well, that's not fair.
Hey, Mr. Anderson,
I'm calling about your direct TV appointment tomorrow.
Right?
He was in one of those commercials.
He was in like a cable commercial or something.
Oh, I think you're right.
I sure do love Verizon Fios.
So she's dead.
And he like hops out and climbs robot mountain
and then a big bunch of robots form a face
and they have a nice little conversation.
A baby face?
It's a baby.
It looks like a baby.
Guys, do you know what this fucking thing is credited as?
Oh, I know.
I do know.
You can do know.
DASX Machina is the name of the head of this whole thing.
Oh, suicide.
Yeah.
That sucks.
Congratulations.
You took a college course.
So they're like, well, why would we let you do?
You know, we're going to kill.
Because the robots have been personified as pure hate up to this point.
Yeah.
I mean, they are pure hate.
What the fuck?
Well, the whole thing is he basically says, like, listen, this Smith
program is out of control and he's making
you all look like jerks
and he's like if you
help me out like a little tit
for tat like I can end this dude
you know it looks like a fucking Nick Cave
concert down there all right
you want me to go back
and figure that shit out or what you
that's what you want the Matrix to look like that's fine
fucking badly covered up Australian accents
and all it's all down there
and like they're like well we can handle it
and he kind of pulls a cool move here he's like
well the dude took
over the Matrix so clearly you
can't. And like this
baby face, DeSX Machina
is just like, all right, fine.
You get to do this. If you can't do it,
we get to kill you.
Because we're robots that love
killing people. Why isn't there
a scene? Because it's the most
startling image in the first movie. And it seems
like where you want to end your trilogy.
Yeah. The field of fucking people.
Right? Like, let's just fucking start
breaking things open. Why don't we get back?
Yeah, the people hatchery. Let's get back to
that that's what I want the crabs are lost sorry they're all they crack well that'd be good
at the end they crack them all open and so mr. Anderson they're all they're all turned into agent
smiths oh shit dude and then mr. smith takes agent smith takes over the real world yeah oh that's when
we go to mars we got to escape to mars oh she was in a cariam moss was in a mars movie what was
that space movie she was in the red planet red planet yeah she in red planet yeah wolf
That's where we went to Mars.
So we go back into the Matrix.
Back in.
We're back.
And it's all Agent Smiths all the time.
It's like Agent Smith's like looking on from office windows like a ticker tape parade.
Some are lining the street.
Also like a ticker tape parade.
You know, dear, it seems like Agent Smith is going to fight Neo in town square tonight.
You want to go there?
I don't know, Agent Smith.
The apprentice is on.
And I think, I've really been rooting for Agent Smith.
And I also want Agent Smith to lose.
What a bitch.
Man, that Agent Smith is running for president again.
What a blowhard.
Hey, Agent Smith.
Have you ever seen Akira?
Good.
Oh, man.
Get ready for it.
So, here we go.
This is the dumbest part of Dumbtown.
Like, this is the last stop on the Crazy Train Express.
It's an okay-ish fight.
It's okay.
But again,
it's ugly, it's dirty, it's raining, it's dark, the colors are disgusting, you can't follow what's happening.
The graphics on this fucking thing, I swear to God, there's a slow motion punch, and it's as bad as son of the mask.
It's exactly as bad.
There is no difference.
The slow motion, you know, the baby getting hit with a hammer or whatever the fuck happens in that movie.
Yeah, I hope that happens.
It's slightly better.
I think it's a cutscene from that stupid.
video game they had. They just popped it in. That's the thing is it feels more than any other
battle or fight or action sequence in any of the three movies. This feels the most. We're fighting
the big boss at the end. Because it's cool in the first one. We were running around. We're just a little
faster. We're just a little slower. No one can fly. We're doing flips. We're having fun.
You know what I mean? Like it's it's grounded somewhere. You know what I mean? People are shooting and
I'm doing a cool like joke movie. Yeah, that's the problem. When you have characters that know
that they can manipulate the entire space
of the world they're in.
It's just a lot of flying around.
It's a lot of flying into each other
and bouncing off, which is terrible.
And it happens like 12 times.
And again, if I really wanted that shit,
I would just go watch anime.
Yeah.
Like, really, I would.
Like, because that's exactly what this is.
Yeah.
Oh, it's an anime fight.
I mean, like, and that first movie
steals from anime, like, in droves, you know?
But it's embedded in something bigger,
which is what makes it better than this.
Like, and there's actual style
to the fighting, whereas this is just like, oh man, they're going to make melancholia a lot of times
by punching each other. I mean, there's a difference between like being influenced by something
and just straight up emulating something. Like that first movie is influenced by a lot of different
things. Yeah. You know, it's like a black duster sunglasses wearing Quentin Tarantino
movie. Sure. But like this is just, we're just doing the thing. And that thing is a video game
fight from an anime or something, you know? And it's like,
obnoxious it goes on way too long
it ends like four times
and then we're fighting in a mud pit
and even the mud
doesn't look like mud
it looks like gray green mud
you know Mr. Anderson we never
figured out the proper coating for
human mud
excuse me earth
mud because we're on Mars
now we've been on Mars
the whole time
that's a good twist we need a twist
we do need a twist ending it was
Mars the whole time. There has been
no Earth. You're a
Martian. At the end
he's got Neo in the mud, he's
beaten him, and he's like, I've won, this is
it, I've seen this before. Why do you
keep fighting? Is it for love?
Is it for perseverance? Is it
for this? Is it for that?
And I just want Neo to come up and be like, I want to
rock!
I would appreciate it so much
more if agent smith was defeated with the power of rock and roll oh man oh how cool would that
be he just like reaches up to the heavens and a guitar falls down it's like listomania dude it's like
wild stallion's back one night only oh man oh if if fucking Alex if Alex winter comes out from nowhere
he's got his own little leather duster they just he's one of the agent smiths he takes off his glasses
and he walks through the crowd yep oh yeah and they beat down and they with the power of rock they
beat down all the agent smiths until there's only one
and then a phone booth lands on him
and Rufus steps out.
God gave rock and roll to you.
Oh, and they all just start like crying
and then the tears make their heads explode.
Because it turns out their robots for some reason.
Sure.
Why not?
And he like basically says like,
oh, the Oracle told me this would happen
and this is the way it should be
and this is the script that we all must follow.
Well, then it's a thing where he starts
getting confused because he's like,
I've been waiting all trilogy
to say this to you, Mr. Anderson.
And then he says a line
that the Oracle says to Keanu Reeves
earlier in the story.
And Keanu Reeves is like, oh, wait a minute.
Maybe the Oracle's still buried inside that.
And then the whole thing is he let Smith
assimilate him.
And then I guess that, this is what's confusing.
So that happens.
And then the machines do something
because then we cut back to the machines.
Yeah.
And it's like, click, click, glipity gloop.
And then he starts blowing up.
Like, Keanu Reeves, Agent Smith blows up.
They all start popping, left and right, like little cherry bombs.
But then, like, main Agent Smith, who's, like, Agent Smith that took over the Oracle,
blows up.
And you're like, oh, they're all dead or something.
That's cool.
But then, like, the end of Friday of the 13th, Jason takes Manhattan, there's just the Oracle just laying in a sewer puddle.
And I'm like, wait, what?
Ow!
Ow!
And I guess that's like...
Neil, what you do to me?
If she's the first one that, like, resets,
because this whole thing makes the Matrix reset
or whatever is happening,
we see like a sidewalk fix itself,
and Agent Smith turns back into the little girl,
and whatever, the sun has risen again.
And by the way, there's another like 10 minutes left of this movie.
You're not seeing Keanu Reeves ever again.
That's a wrap on Keanu Reeves.
see the architect walking along a lake
and talking to the Oracle
about the balance of things.
I'm not too sure on this.
I think the jury's still out, but I feel like
that architect's just a little bit of a jerk.
You think?
You're thinking, huh?
He's just like talking shit to this old
woman. And also, if the
Oracle, again, is rebuilding herself,
why is it that same way?
Yeah, why not go back to the original one?
Get undercover.
But, so we go,
we cut back to Zion for two
seconds.
It's peace now.
There's peace with the robots.
We're all like high-fiving and stuff.
The robots leave.
And I would have liked if it was like, all right, we won.
We did it.
Let's play the victory song.
And they dig through the bitches and burn through the witches and play.
I'm on Dragula.
That'd be great.
No, it would have to be the Chemical Brothers remix of that song.
Yeah, or Paul Oakenfold.
Yeah, we dig back and like everyone's just like, it's fantastic.
Jada Pinkett Smith
hugs Larry Fishburn. What I wanted
to see there, because they're like
formerly an item. Yeah, do it. She gets back
and then, because she's with Harry Lennox in these
movies, like he walks in like, I told
you it wouldn't. Oh, great.
Ha, rub. Just another
thing for him to get mad at and yell about.
That's just another hard apple
for me.
How long is this piece going to last?
Nobody knows. Well, that's not going to last.
We cut back to the, that's the thing.
It's the robot, you know, it's the architect
in her and she's like
oh well it all worked out in the end didn't it
and you lost and he's like yes
I did she's like
what about all the people that want to be out of the matrix
he's like I'll release them
and I'm like wait what what does that look like
how many are there that's what doesn't make any
millions one two if the whole
thing is like the war between the machines
and man are over with
and now like anybody
who's dying to get
out of the matrix and live in Zion
like wants to why would the machines be cool with this because if you freed everybody then they lose their power source so clearly that war is just going to start back up again and also like how many how many beds you got in zion dude how much fucking oatmeal slop you got why would the matrix exist if it's just for programs now yeah you know yeah if it's not the thing that's like it's just keeping these people duped while they're being used as a food source which is the whole fucking point of the matrix in the first place it's just going to be
corn clubs for computer programs.
That's what it is.
It's just, it's going to be all sex
holodex.
This new round of the matrix is
all sex clubs.
Because you let, you let computers run
rampant long enough and just
more porn, more porn.
Oh yeah, porn baguettes porn.
Yep.
That's what the internet's doing right now.
And that's,
and that's it.
We look at this kind of cool
sunrise.
We end up a question mark
because they do literally ask
how long could this piece last?
He's like, well, see.
Like, ooh,
there's also like
an oracle line like
I think the little girl's like
Will we ever see Neo again?
Oh yeah.
And she's like, oh yes, I think we will.
Wouldn't surprise me one box office bit.
Five years from now,
The Matrix Rise of Morpheus.
I'm almost certain it'll happen.
Well, if it means more screen time
for the great Larry Fishburn,
So be it.
It would be a young hymn.
It couldn't be.
Oh, you're talking prequel.
Yeah, of course.
Well, that's what I was saying.
When I was rewatching the first one, there's all those, like, Keanu Reeves, the whole
reason he gets found out by them is because they know he's searching for Morpheus.
So he's on his computer and you see all these like newspaper headlines like,
Morpheus wanted in blah, blah, blah, blah, known global terrorist Morpheus.
And I was like, what are those stories that got him on like the FBI's most wanted list?
Well, I mean, I think that's the Matrix Five.
with them like they make them out to be a child killer you know oh so it's not like in the hunt
for the one morphius has been causing all sorts of trouble it's all phony baloney yeah i think oh that's too
bad that's sad or is it maybe maybe he killed some kids i don't know yeah why not is that one of the
things that they make them out to be a child killer sure i would like to see because they also in that
first movie say like sorry we pulled you out you're so old we normally don't do that blah blah blah
I want to see a botch job for something like that.
You unplug somebody from the Matrix and it doesn't stick.
Someone just starts flopping around like a fish or something.
Or you turn like Bruce Davidson in that first X-Men movie, just a big jellyfish?
That would be cool.
Would anybody recommend this movie?
No, man.
It was a real slog.
Two and a half hours and nothing.
Yep.
I mean, the best part is the fight, which isn't very good.
and all of the Agent Smith stuff again
is the best part of this movie
which is super hammy and just to rehash the first one
and there's so many characters
I couldn't care less about.
If you want to see a better Hugo Weaving movie
check out Reckless Kelly by Yahoo!
Yeah.
Really?
What's that about?
Oh boy. Honestly, go watch it.
All right.
Go watch it and get back to me.
So Chris Cabin, are you recommending?
Oh, absolutely not.
No. You can do so much
two hours of your life. Do you do anything?
thing with that. I kind of want Hugo even to come
back as that Red Skull. When's that happening?
That I could do. I would love that. He was
badass as the Red Skull, man.
He was good. I will say
I should, I think probably
what the thing is with a lot of the
more recent movies, like Cloud
both Cloud Atlas and Jupiter
ascending. So the Wachowski
films. It feels like the
three, these three movies tried to
scrunched into one.
Oh, you're saying like getting a
trilogy into one. Well, because let's face it, they're
not going to let them touch a sequel.
No. Someone's got to make money first.
Somebody's got to make a lot of money first. So they
are trying to pack in all that story.
But what sucks, and I said
this when Jupiter ascending came out, was like
at least
they're doing like original non-franchised stuff.
Sure. Like Cloud Atlas is an adaptation of a book.
But like still, it's not like a comic
book movie or whatever.
Sure. But stop fucking it up.
Call somebody like, I don't know.
Eric, Eric Roth.
Get Eric.
Eric Roth on the phone and have him write you a movie.
Would he write a screenplay?
Eric Roth?
Yeah, he's written some.
Yeah, he's written Curious Case of Benjamin Button.
Oh, that's right.
And Forrest Gump.
Who am I thinking, though?
Philip Roth.
Philip Roth.
Yeah, sorry about that.
All right.
I feel like you're better just pretending it's one movie.
You have to.
It's a much better.
It's a better movie.
It's a better series.
That ending is so much better than the end of this movie.
I wish it was, if you said, hey, there's a Matrix.
where there's only one Matrix movie,
I might be tempted to plug in.
That's the Matrix Revolutions from 2003,
directed by the Wachowski's.
