Such activity is illegal. Enough said in my opinion. We don't like links to piracy, we don't like talk about piracy. You should know better. The strike stands.

 

A strike is not the end of the world, a strike is a warning. Take it as that - instead of contesting the strike, just learn from it and move on. You still have two left.

I saw Revolutions last night, and in my opinion, no words can describe it. Any words I try to use to describe it would be an understatement. Yes, I saw all three. Yes, they're all good films.

 

But no, I don't think anything was wrong. I really didn't care if it had a storyline or not: I wanted to see action. Although, I DID pay attention to every word...

 

And the theatre speakers were too f***ing loud. At times I heard the speakers crackle and pop. It's amazing that I'm not deaf, LOL.

Nothing personal, but IMO people like you ruin movies. I personally don't care for any action or million-dollar special effects. I care about the story and the dialogues.

 

Oh well, and people wonder why I stopped watching TV. Maybe because it's all crap what's on it?

 

You know what good action movies were? James Bond. And I mean the old ones, that still had humour, and a nice villain, not the action-packed crap it is today. Or to take a series, the Avengers, nice humour, good story.

 

When I watch a movie today, like Terminator 3 or Starwars AOTC or the latest Matrix movie for that matter I can't help but think "how is it possible that anyone likes this crap?".

While I agree with your comment on the Bond movies, i disagree with your comments on the Matrix saga. On one hand you say that you don't care about all of the action and effects in the movies, and that you are more interested in the dialogue and story. Well, the Mr KissKiss Bang Bang (Mr Bond as he's know in Sri Lanka ;) ) movies - even the old ones - aren't exactly dripping with the story. They mostly contain that great British irony and those equally great one liners. (Not that that is a bad thing B) )

 

As for the Matrix, I would say that all three of the movies place great emphasis on the dialogue and story. Many people have complained about the ending of Revolutions, but I found it quite suitable. It brings closure to the saga, and demonstartes the level of commitment that Neo and Trinity gave to their cause. Anything less then self sacrifice would have been unworthy of them.

I saw it third showing, liked it. But i found that at the end, I didn't care about the characters. That, and there weren't enough martial arts fights. all just gunfights (not always bad)... when I think of the matrix, I think of two scenes. The lobby gunfight in the first one, and the subway fight in the first one.

 

Other than that, I liked it. And I loved the Zion battle. not a fight, per se, but a full fledged battle... and they finally let them squiddies catch a few humans and rip 'em apart. whoo.

 

Needed more Seraph, though.. :shifty:
