Off topic a little but has anyone seen the bittorrent downloads for Matrix
Revolutions. WTF is with that, didn't really want to download a 700mb file
to find it was garbage but it peaked my interest a little bit...

any word?

It was boring to those that didn't care about the storyline.. for those that
just went to a movie to watch effects.. for those of us that followed the
storyline deeply it was a very good movie.. revealed a lot of the backline
story and answered a lot of questions (bet you thought that the chat with
the architect was the most boring bit of the movie.. when it was infact the
most important)

Suddenly, EAgle sprang forth and uttered these pithy words:

Obviously it was the most important, indeed one of the few parts of the
film that actually had any purpose, but it was delivered in a hugely
pretentious speech for no apparent reason, and somehow failed to
impress. Thinking back, the ideas are quite nifty but it didn't work in
the movie, IMHO.

Nope.... if you played Enter the Matrix there is a clue as to what actually
happened at the end.. Part of Neo's consciousness was left behind in the
matrix... explanations as to why he was able to sense the machines.. anyway
we'll see when Revolutions open

Couldn't agree more. The Architect scene was very very thought provoking!
