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

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

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

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

  • @dunringill1747

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

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

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

    • @porkflaps4717
      @porkflaps4717 Місяць тому

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

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

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

    • @xzonia1
      @xzonia1 Рік тому +3

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

    Also...one thing you guys kind of picked up on during the cave scene is the connection between Zion and the human body.

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

They got divorce in 2018 though, unfortunately. Gina Torres used to be one of the leads in a short lived Sci-Fi show called "Cleopatra 2525". She also does a LOT of voice acting work for animations and video games.

    I got The Matrix on VHS back in the day in 2000, after it came out in 1999, and then picked up The Matrix: Reloaded and The Matrix: Revolutions by 2004 on DVD along with the original on DVD, and watched them over and over again on a weekly basis until 2008 when I finally put them away for about 5 years.
    Couldn't stop watching, couldn't stop thinking. If you get a chance on the Blue-Ray set they not only have the Animatrix which preceded both of these films, and then watch the clips from the Video Game, Enter The Matrix which features more of Captain Niobe speaking with the Oracle about why she needs to help Neo in Revolutions, but also features more of Persephone, and the Merovingian, but there is also Return To Source: Philosophy & The Matrix which reviews all three films and the Animatrix and interviews professors of philosophy and theology about the metaphysics and meaning in the films! It is an hour long and very good!

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