I love these. Just the idea of him being a frat bro is hilarious to me.

[–] thisisbutaname@discuss.tchncs.de 13 points 4 days ago (1 children)

It could do with a few strategically placed "bro"s though

Bro needs to come back to our planet we destroyed in which there is no more steak and only paste.

The older I get, the more I realize that Joey Pantaloons was right.

If I'm living a life in the Matrix, I'm not being harmed in any way while they use my body to generate electricity. Who really gives a shit? Does it make a difference?

Reality is just neural inputs translated by our brain; does it even matter where that input comes from? Does it make a difference if those inputs simply skip my five senses and plug directly into my brain?

The crazy mass orgy dances happen outside of the matrix.

[–] Adderbox76@lemmy.ca 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

That's not a requirement. There's nothing stopping them from happening in the Matrix, and probably with people who smell a lot better.

According to Agent Smith, humans also stink inside the matrix.

[–] Adderbox76@lemmy.ca 8 points 3 days ago

Smith is just upset he's never invited to the rave-orgies.

[–] Schal330@lemmy.world 26 points 4 days ago (6 children)

There is also that weird cave rave orgy thing I guess? Or do we continue to pretend there has only ever been one Matrix movie?

Yeah pretty much.

[–] Schal330@lemmy.world 7 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I'm onboard with that! Although can we at an absolute stretch acknowledge there were some good bits in Reloaded? The Chateau and highway fight scenes were fun with great soundtracks!

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Reloaded wasn't that bad, though the CGI certainly doesn't hold up. Revolutions was pretty bad though, apart from the action.

[–] Sharkticon@lemmy.zip 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I don't think reloaded was even close to bad.

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

Other than the CGI the only thing wrong with it is it's a setup for a bad sequel. That's why it'll never be good for me. I feel like I'm getting half of a story that'll never be finished.

Zion dance. I think I recall in the movie it's mixed with a scene of Neo and Trinity getting it on.

[–] MeowerMisfit817@lemmy.world 7 points 4 days ago (2 children)

I didn't watch the other movies sorry

[–] RickyRigatoni@piefed.zip 10 points 4 days ago (1 children)

You need to watch Event Horizon, it's the best Matrix sequel.

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 5 points 4 days ago

I thought that was the Warhammer prequel.

[–] deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 4 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Isn't this shot from the second film on the highway?

[–] k0e3@lemmy.ca 4 points 4 days ago

The animations were cool, too. Not sure if they were considered cannon though.

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

They made more?

[–] LouNeko@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

Yeah but the Matrix probably had Burning Man back when it was good.
