“you think that’s air you’re breathing?” is an all timer line
It is a great lane. I debated on cutting it out
I love that line. And then, "Stop trying to hit me and hit me."
@@unpaidrentals was bummed out you cut out "there is no spoon" from the elevator scene. But overall an excellent reaction.
@@RobS8769
I also like that line.
Bro, I saw this in theaters when I was 11, and that fucking shootout in the granite building was too epic for my tiny brain to handle.
I still wanna know if that was done in one take.
@@unpaidrentalsno ❌❌❌ retakes took 3 hrs to set back up 🎬 🎦
Wow 3hrs of set reset is insane
@@unpaidrentals yes ✅ approximation I could be off, I could be way off 😅 I believe it says how long after the credits.
Ah yes. Where Neo and Trinity murdered innocent people just doing their jobs.
I saw this at my friends house when I turned 11, came out on my birthday. Best movie experience I ever had in my life
I love how "I hope that's not a needle" just lead to worse and worse outcomes.
It did. And I hated it.
I thought that was funny too.
I was thinking "Oh it's much worse than a needle"😂😂
It Wasn't, love's kiss that raised Neo from the dead. In Medieval Times, when they cut people's heads off. They would ask the head questions, and the head would answer by blinking their eyes.
And yeah I know how that sounds. But it was discovered that the head would actually live separate from the body for as much as 2 minutes.
Therefore, it is entirely possible, that Neo heard Trinity talking to him after he was shot dead. And that her kiss, simply reminded him of who, and *Where he was.
That realization; the realization that his Real body was still sitting in that chair; was all the information Neo needed to, "Get, Up!"
That and...
"Is that Air you're breathing???"
One of my favorite trilogy of all time :)
Before reacting to matrix 2 reloaded, you really MUST react to the animatrix.
These are 9 shorts stories on the matrix universe who helps to understand it and to elarge the universe and the lore. Especially :
-The second Renaissance : It's a matrix prequel which tells what happened between humans and machines and why the matrix was created
-A kid's story : Origin story of a new character in matrix 2 & 3
-Last flight of the Osiris : It's an introduction to matrix reloaded, litterally a couple of hours before.
Btw, matrix 2 (reloaded) and matrix 3 (revolutions) are actually a 4 hours film cut in two parts (they were shot back to back) and this is why they were both released the same year with only a 6 months gap.
So to be more clear, this is the right order for watching the matrix franchise :
-the matrix (1999)
-the animatrix (2003)
-the matrix reloaded (2003)
-the matrix revolutions (2003)
Not only should you watch the whole trilogy, but the Animatrix has a backstory anime segment that goes into detail on the fall of humanity. It's called "The Second Renaissance" and it is canon. Written by the Wachowskis, as well.
"...there is no spoon"
There is a huge rabbit hole of subtext in this entire franchise (which also includes video games, animation and graphic novels in addition to the main films)…the Neo and Trinity relationship is a critical part of the overall story arc. If you’re interested in really diving deep into this, I recommend the YT channel Matrix Explained.
Thank you for the recommendation
fun fact: the lobby shootout syncs up perfectly with Mambo No. 5
This movie was our very 1st DVD for our brand new DVD player 😂 This movie and its stunt scenes were like no other movie at the time. I agree with you about the chemistry between Trinity & Neo…I never felt any. Great reaction. Glad you enjoyed the movie.
Fun fact, when youtube was new, like 90% of the videos had the song playing during the woman in the red dress scene
The cgi is not great, of course not for today's standards. But the special effects, the camera movements, everything else is at the top of the industry thats ever been made. So much planning and thought goes into each second. Its incredible for the time.
I’m with you on the Neo/Trinity relationship. I never felt it either.
The most forced feeling thing about the movie.
I think you'd probably enjoy the next two somewhat decently. They both have some really cool scenes, effects, twists, mind games, etc.
Matrix Reloaded is F*n awesome! Don't listen to the haters. If you liked the action scenes in The Matrix, you're going to love the sequel!
I liked how new you were to the Matrix movie.
Yeah I’m surprised it took me this long to watch it.
I love this movie. I saw it long ago in the theater and it is still in my top ten.
"Is that a needle? I don't like needles"
oh it's going to get worse... 😆
"Don't go up his nose"
oh it's going to get worse...🤣
Terminator is the “Prequel” to the matrix
It’s not really the kiss that brings him back. It’s the fulfillment of the prophecy. Trinity was told by The Oracle that she would fall in love with “the one” and Neo was told that either him or Morpheus would die. Neo died and Trinity fell in love with Neo.
Also, the Oracle suggested he was waiting for his next life to become the one.
This iconic AF movie! This was the wildest film, in a cinematic sense, since probably Jurassic Park. The perfect end-cap to the 90's. The CG, the cinematography, and the story, had 12 year old me leaving the theater wondering if I was in the fuckin' Matrix. It didn't help that I was(and am) a major computer nerd and had just built my very first personal PC weeks before I saw this movie. I went from wanting to be a female Goku, to wanting to be a female Neo in one night XD
Now you should look into Simulation Theory, it's one of my favorite super-niche physics theories, and it can kinda fuck up your worldview, especially if you're fascinated by things like pondering the fundamental nature of reality. This all could technically be a simulation, and one day, we could prove it by creating our very own sub reality. Imagine we create a virtual universe, modeled after our own, complete with the rules necessary for matter and energy to interact as they do in our reality. What if sentient life arises in that simulation? Is that reality any lesser than our own?
This movie helped me really think about existence, and I will always cherish it for that. It helped lead me down intellectual and philosophical rabbit holes that have helped form the person I am today.
That quote from agent smith"when we started thinking for you it really became our civilization" sends chills down my spine with the current state of ai in our reality.
Ah that phone we called the nokia/matrix banana phone. Originals we got alot of money for
the bullet time slow motion circular rotation thing is done with a ssshhhitload of cameras lined up in the direction you want the action to go
also, how does the kiss of fucking destiny or something work!? It wooorks, cus he didn't *really* get shot - he believes, and trinity believes - and the oracle said A = A; your mind makes it real - his mind fucking didn't! And that's it! Code cracked, it was the kiss of true love! Figure that one out, machines!
(but yeah, a bit outta nowhere w the love)
Oooh thanks for the bullet time breakdown
Where was this shot? Sydney, Australia. The camera angles are very clever so you don't see any give-away landmarks, but the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge are just a few blocks from the CBD locations of the buildings shown in aerial city shots. Apart from being a cheap location at the time, the film makers thought the shots of tall buildings would not be recognizable to northern hemisphere audiences. I know Sydney well and I didn't recognize the locations. The scene with the "woman in the red dress" is in the lower business district - in Pitt Street next to the Martin Place Fountain. If you look very carefully, you can tell that in brief shots of streets that the cars are driving on the left side of the road.
Filmed in Sydney, like the 2000 student parody Computer Boy (Matrix Spoof) (720p, 30FPS AI Upscaled)
Spoiler Warning for those who didn’t watch the movie yet.
The blue pill will probably put Neo asleep. And they have those as protection against those who don’t want to leave the matrix, because everyone who doesn’t, is potentially an Agent.
Fun fact: Remember, how Neo got that phone in his cubicle? The ballpen he used to sign for it, had actually the choice for two colors. Red and Blue. And - to call him by his given name - Thomas chose the blue color, showing, that he wasn’t ready yet, to leave. But the interaction with the Agents helped him making up his mind.
Secret Tunnel, secret tunnel! shout out to avatar last Airbender!
That’s my theme song when I play elden ring
Absolutely one of the best movies of its time, also the matrix video games on the Ps2 went crazy
Fun reaction, keep going. All are fantastic
In the late 90´s the Wachowskis spend lots of time in Berlin/Germany and were close friends with Tom Tykwer. Years later he was the co-producer of their movie Cloud Atlas. Whilst the Wachowskis were working on The Matrix, Tykwer made his own movie - "Lola rennt" (Run, Lola, Run). In my opinion, these two movie belong together. "Run, Lola, Run" - worth a watch.
Okay interesting thanks for letting me know
Now time to play Max Payne 1 and 2, Stranglehold, and Path of Neo again : D
Never played any of these.
@@unpaidrentals bullet time heaven : )
You look too young to have even been born when this movie premiered. But rewatching with you and I see that moment where Mobius talks about the human race in the early 21st century celebrating the birth of A.I. OH SHIT! That's terrifying. Feels like Mobius was real and he knows where we are headed. 😮
BTW, the action was obviously over the top and would be ridiculous, if not for one thing. In the Matrix the real world rules don't apply.
It's a very inventive way to do some really crazy stuff. Let's just hope the matrix doesn't become our reality.....or maybe it already is.....hmmm??
Oh god what have you done!?
Keep this up, you''re doing awesome.
36:30 "So anyway, I started blastin!"
BTW respect, you know your guns too!
Grew up on goldeneye and call of duty zombies 🫡
You should watch the Honest Trailers bout this its pretty great.
I will actually, I’ve always seen that channel and have never actually watched any of their videos
Let’s gooo!
Funnily enough, the beginning of the Matrix game for...PS2? Started with you doing the office sneaking around. It was a big pain in the ass, but it was a nice juxtaposition to later when you were kung fuing all over. I grew up drawing stick figures Matrix dodging bullets in the margins of my school notes.
Man, I feel like you're having film resonance.
I wonder what else could post keep up with these movies 🤔
Comment. ✅ ✅
This movie is a perfect encapsulation of turn of the century cool. Sunglasses, leather jackets, kung fu, it's something very special, the cinematic crossroads of genius and super lame. It aged like wine too, it's a good thing they never made any sequels to it.
I'm new to your channel but top notch reaction and analysis! Great job! Please, if you haven't already, react to "Nope".
Would love to hear you thoughts!
Greetings from London, Englanc 🤓🇬🇧
Nope is one of my favorite movies ever. I love that movie. I’ve seen it 3 times in theaters alone
@@unpaidrentals 😁 That's great! Where do you place it in your top three of "US" and "Get Out"?
@user-eh8cg4bp3y oh it’s #1 for me.
They don't make movies like this anymore
I said that about jaws last night.
Do watch the AniMatrix. Don't bother with Reloaded, Revolutions, Resurrections.
"You hear that Mr. Anderson?... That is the sound of inevitability... It is the sound of your death... Goodbye, Mr. Anderson..."
"My name... is Neo."
Fun, deep film. This movie is about free will and breaking free of the machine. Unfortunately, the second and third movies (while watchable) are philosophically inconsistent with this movie. The fourth movie is absolute garbage and completely unwatchable. I can't stop you from watching them, just be prepared to be disappointed in them.
Fun Fact: Theatrical movie debut of Tamara Brown.
Mythology Fact: In Greek mythology, Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne) is the god of dreams.
The One Fact: To prepare for the scene where Neo wakes up in a pod, Keanu Reeves lost fifteen pounds and shaved his whole body to give Neo an emaciated look.
Set Malfunction Fact: After the lobby shoot-out, the camera pans back, showing the aftermath of the gunfight. A moment passes, and a large chunk of one of the pillars falls off. This was not planned, but was left in for a comedic effect.
Not A Snowflake Fact: Carrie-Anne Moss twisted her ankle while shooting one of her scenes, but decided not to tell anyone until after filming, so they wouldn't re-cast her. Carrie-Anne Moss performed the shots featuring Trinity at the beginning of the film, and all the wire stunts throughout, herself.
Sunglasses Enthusiast Fact: The iconic sunglasses worn by the Matrix characters are from the "Blinde" label, which prides itself on producing handmade glasses. The company's founder, Richard Walker, had to tender against large companies, such as Ray-Ban and Arnette, to win the film's sunglasses contract, and set himself apart by scratch-designing pairs of glasses based purely on the characters' unusual names. When his tender was successful, Walker was flown into Sydney where he spent the duration of the Matrix shoot custom-designing sunglasses for the cast in the back of an Oxford Street optometrist.
I knew that when the panel fell it wasn’t real. Idk how but I could tell it was a happy accident.
So if neo in the matrix isnt real cause its all a simulation game, why would the agents of the matrix go through the trouble of rendering a fictional horrendous biomechanical tracking creature through his avatar's bellybutton? Why not use a subtle non-physically-seeming invisible tracking program?
Its not perfect. You're right. But thats not really what makes the movie great or what its about. Its a small detail. But you're right
that bullet time shot was probably the best VFX achievement in decades maybe longer. This movie changed the game, too bad about the sequels. Animatrix is cool tho
how are u blind to what the bad guy, that's NOT in the Matrix, wanna do... he is willing to kill everyone, have them get Morpheus so they can destroy the human city, and he gets put back in the Matrix as a rich important person...
The rest of the Matrix movies are ok, but there’s one that I would recommend above the rest: The Animatrix. If you just watch one, I’d suggest that one.
It's funny - last time I saw The Matrix was a few years before realizing that I'm trans, and knowing that the writers/directors are also trans makes rewatching this movie super interesting through that lens, since there are so many ideas and concepts that are so relatable to the trans experience~
1 and 2 are good, the rest are dogshit
The next 2 are garbage cash-grabs, frankly.
And yeah, they had to massively nerf Neo to have them possible.
The CGI also becomes much more noticeable, cartoonish, bad *at the time* let alone now looking back.
Not surprising. Makes me more excited. I love bad movies.
yea this cult movie that everyone knows about is going to be lackluster ....
yay another over acting reaction... - fuggin 1
