a warm-up for next week

Mostly, I am doing homework, but last weekend I did get a chance to check out Matrix Reloaded again ( I feel redundant). Seeing it close up and for a second time I was less impressed with the computer animation. It’s getting closer to real life, but it was so clear to me when they switched over, especially during the courtyard fight scene which was one of my favorites in the theatre. There is some great choreography and what they have done with computers is phenomenal, but it’s still far from looking life-like. I’d have to say the ultimate scene must be the highway scene, particularly Morpheus in action (how cool is it to wipe out an SUV with a sword!!!). Amy and I will watch the extras on the DVD this Thursday, by which I am likely to be even more impressed. I saw a little of it and can tell there’s some good stuff in there. Just the physical descipline the cast went through gets me fired up for M3. Mmmm. Kung Fu. My legs twitch at the thought.

Hopefully they’ll leave out the orgies and crotch zoom-ins this time.
