The Matrix: Reloaded

[Mark]

Reloaded opens in North America in 17 days on Thursday, May 15th. Asides from being the 2nd movie of the series' trilogy, it is hyped to be a huge blockbuster. The first Matrix was my fave movie and I just can't wait to see Reloaded.

My question is: are you as excited as I am to see this movie? share your thoughts and post reviews if you like, as long as they don't contain spoilers.

i think we know what most of the responses are going to be.

the more i hear about the Matrix Reloaded, the more my head feels like it is going to explode. i might even pip off school in the after noon just to see it first :D

EDIT: the movie trailer is better than most of the movies i have seen, and that is sad!

(w00t) HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!! (w00t) Matrix 1 introduced a new world to movies. Now Matrix 2 will have those elements and even more. That movie is going to be a blast. From the trailers I've seen, I think this movie beats every movie ever done in USA. I'm seeing it the first day.
"[Neo] has superhuman ability but also has this incredible responsibility." What a great combination... (w00t). That movie is the best action movie of spring. Heck! the best movie of the year. Heck!! The best movie of all times!!!!!!


BTW, the new POD's video is out. The thread is here (http://www.lpassociation.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=87&t=3490&hl=).

If you want to see a matrix commercial advertising "Powerade" then right click here (http://www.methodstudios.com/reeldb_files/quicktimes/541_powa_matrix.912.mov) to save it. It's pretty kool. And no Matrix spoliers! ;)

And if you want to see the Final matrix trailer for Matrix Reloaded click here (http://whatisthematrix.warnerbros.com/rl_cmp/reloaded_final_320.html) (w00t) That's the best one so far!!

[Pinkin Lark]

im totally ready for matrix 2! wow! cant wait

[Amy]

Yes, I am not a huge fan, yet I'm anticipating it.

^^That one. I have seen most of the first Matrix and it was good. I dont like it heaps but I think Reloaded might be good as well. I am going to see it but im not sure when though.

[Happy Gilmore]

I can't go on 15th of May cuz i have my exams then :( So i guess I'll watch it later on....

[Shinji]

Yes, The first movie was amazing and I can't wait!

[Chris(tmas)]

The matrix kicks some serious ass :shifty:
i think the Reloaded will be better then the 1st one

Yes i'm f*cking excited :D

[Hybrid Soldier]

Dont think. It is way better than the first one. Like Blade 1 and Blade 2. Blade 2 was way better...

the powerade one doesn't work, i right click and save target as and it doens't work.

[Phantom Duck]

I anticipate more the bullet-time stuff and the game (enter the matrix) :P
But, anyway, i hope smith comes back. I hate the heroes in movies, except for the bourne identity, where bourne is actually the bad guy...

[Jawknee]

I work for Century Theatres, a huge movie-theatre chain in the United States and am going to watch it May 14th, a day before its official release. I'm really excited.

haha, you're so lucky.

[Sludge Factory]

I WANT to see it. I have a question though. Im 16, my brothers almost 20. Can I go to the theater to see The Matrix: Reloaded since its rated R, if I go with my bro? Or will they not let me in, even if Im with a 20 yr old?

They'll let you in with a 20 year old.

Haha, in Canada most of the movies which are "R" in the states are "14+" here. This rocks.

HELL YEAH!

[Neil]

I think that I'll just download it off KaZaA. Theatres are so damn expensive now. Like 12 50 to get in and like 5$ for a drink. And im broke :P I hope that they actually USE session in the movie ie: a fight scene and just dont put it on the soundtrack

[fear-is-the-mindkiller]

the first matrix movie was such an amazing experience! alot of the special effects really broke new ground (e.g. the famous "bullet time" *heh*)

what was also cool was that most of the city scenes were filmed in sydney, australia. and in knowing that, i took pride in the places they filmed because i'd been there in the past few years. heh.

i'm pretty excited about the 'enter the matrix' game too. comes out on the same day as the movie. woohoo :D

[Jawknee]

The majority of us on these boards must be broke as hell and jobless because you guys are naggin' about prices, which is understandable, but for one movie one time? - come on now.

I personally hope that "Session" is used in the beginning of the movie (hence it being the first track on the album), but who knows. Holy sh!t, I'm getting really antsy about this - I can't wait!!

Word. It's not that hard to scrounge up $5US to go see a movie. If the theatres in the US are like the Canadian ones, there should be a Weekend rate (Fri-Sun) and a Weekday rate (Mon-Thurs) and Thursday would cost cheaper than usual. Thursday is a weird day for a movie to be released, does anyone agree?

I think Session will be used as the credits theme, it seems like a good choice for that.

na its not that weird. people realy want to see it.

[Jawknee]

At Century Theatres and perhaps other chains, there's a bargain-matinee price and a general admission price. Thursday is a weird release date because most films are released Fridays and sometimes Wednesday. I remember Star Wars Ep2 was released Thursday. Back to prices, our bargain price is $6 to $6.25 and general admission is $9 to $9.25. You can bring in your own outside food and save some cash. Make a sandwhich at home, bring a Capri Sun, and then all you spent your money on was your ticket. Use them brains!

[[Darken Hybrid]]

Today I saw "Movie House: Matrix Reloaded" on MTV. Also the "Making of the Game: Enter The Matrix". The matrix reloaded is going to be AWESOME. I saw a few more scenes on MTV. There's 2 more commercial advertising the matrix. One on budwiser with a womam that looks like Trinity, this one is really kool. And another one about the movie. I CAN'T WAIT ONE MORE WEEK!!!!!!!!!! (w00t)

[Sludge Factory]

I cant wait for this movie!! But, im probably not going to see it on opening day (that would be stupid), the theater would be packed wall to wall. Definately seeing it though. :D

[Jawknee]

Many theatres are selling tickets for shows the night before (May 14th). Check your local theatre. ;)

I bet that the soundtrack disc won't contain all the animatrix. Maybe just the big, final, long trailer. The dvd will come out on june. I've watched most of them out of nine. I think that's really kool. I'm definitely buy the dvd on June. one of the animatrix is based on matrix reloaded; Final Flight of the Osiris. I haven't see it but I've heard about it. Currently MTV2 is having an half-hour special on animatrix. They show a preview of 3 of them and premier one of them.

nope it wont ruin reloaded or revolutions. ;)
whoah 1000 posts. nice. :teehee:

[Jawknee]

Actually, it's just called The Animatrix and each episode has its own title. They do deal with the sequal, but it's not necessary to view them to understand the movie, you'll only be more knowledgeable about the Matrix Reloaded movie - you know, impressive material to impress your friends.

Each episode was drawn by different famous artists. If you guys would like, I could scan and post screen shots of the Animatrix episodes and even each synopsis for each episode. There are nine altogether.

Episode 1: Final Flight of the Osiris (Shown at the beginning of the movie "Dreamcatcher")

Episode 2: Matriculated

Episode 3: Kid's Story

Episode 4: Program

Episode 5: World Record

Episode 6 &7: The Second Renaissance Parts 1 and 2

Episode 8: A Detective Story

Episode 9: Beyond

A few of these episodes have been released. Surf the net.

:o Im shocked! Was that dj on crack? Of course it will be good. And, the LP song (Session) will probably be at the ending credits, or have some other small part...

[Jawknee]

blastox, you need to keep up with the news. Scroll up buddy - it's official: "Session" will be at the end credits.

In regards to that one DJ, who cares what he/she says? Is one pointless guy/girl going to change your whole perspective? Just go watch it and then you decide if you like it or not.

eh in general im not that much into the matrix anyway...im a lord of the rings freak :P

Today I saw the TRL Matrix Reloaded Edition on MTV. They had the whole cast plus P.O.D. was there with their new guitarist (as seen the 'sleeping awake' video). A lot of people have seen it. All the people from TRL saw it. By the way, it opens tonight on New York...I want to see it! I know it's going to be the best movie ever. I've seen a lot of promotion, which means that tons of people will be going on Thursday (USA premier). I just hope I get on time. Matrix Realoaded... (w00t).

[Jawknee]

I'm seeing it twice! I get to see it Wednesday night and then I got my ticket for Thursday morning - first show at 11 something because I don't have school! :lol:

[Jawknee]

do they just sell those at the front ticket office? if i go today and ask for tickets tomorrow for Reloaded, will they sell them to me? or do I have to go to a special desk?

[Jawknee]

No special desk. You can buy advance tickets at the regular box office.

I saw The Matrix Reloaded for a second time today. I understand it now! You guys have to pay attention because they talk fast on certain parts. The action is okay and really awesome on some scenes, but damn, I thought I was watching The Animatrix at one point because of all the computer graphics. There's a lot of talking and scenes that could have been trashed. "Session" doesn't get played until towards the end of the credits, booooo. Stay seated, because at the very end of the credits is a bad-ass trailer for The Matrix Revolutions. ;)

[tkd_rap]

just saw it a few hours ago, if you understand it then, answere this one question i have SPOILER WARNNING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!




is the real world, real?????????? neo uses his powers in it, smith is abel to go in it? it is controlled by machines, they keep the 1 persent of humans that would not except the matrix there, so they wont cause problems. then when the time comes, they easily destroy it, is it infact, one of the older matrixes??? they biult on top of, then buil on top of again, and again, untill we have the matrix now?? please this question is really killing me

i would have stayed for the Trailer but my sh!t head friends didn't beleive me, and if i stayed i would have missed my ride home

tkd_rap: could you make that question less confusing?

[Hybrid Soldier]

well i found out that there wasnt a return of the king trailer but a final trailer for bad boys 2. sorry for any dissappointment.

[Mark]

Reloaded was amazing! 10/10!

Although I'm not sure which of the two movies was better, Reloaded really kicked ass. There were quite a few dialogue scenes, but you really need to listen to what they're saying so you can figure it all out. It's really interesting. The battle scenes make up for any boring scenes though, they were amazing. GO SEE THIS MOVIE!

ps: don't be discouraged if "session" doesn't come on first during the credits. it goes: RATM -> Rob Zombie -> P.O.D -> Linkin Park -> Revolution trailer.

[Amy]

Dont put in spoilers!

I am supposed to be seeing it tomorrow... but I dont know if I will be able to see it because there will be HEAPS of people there :(

[tkd_rap]

the first part is what i am saying, they are not really in the real world, it could just be one of the older matrixes, that had been done away with, thats how smith is in that guys head, and how neo uses his powers.

i give it a 8.9/10

really good, just that whole sex/dance orgy scene was unesasary, and stupid, i like the fact they kept sex out of the first one, putting that in there a terribel thing to do. if they took it out, then it could have dropped to a pg-13 rating, and had a widder audiance because of it.

[Mark]

if i find another spoiler in here, the threads getting closed and warnings will be given out. don't ruin it for others, even if you warn about them.

[Jawknee]

But LPFAN05, I thought you said it was okay after the movie was released and it has been? Sorry, I'm confused by what's allowed and what isn't. Perhaps you should clarify and/or add it to the forum rules.

"please don't spoil movies for others. at least wait until it's out in theatres (tomorrow)." -LPFAN05

I thought you meant to wait until it came out to post spoilers. Sorry again.

what was crap was they only played about 30seconds of "session" before that remix song by dave matthews & paul oakenfold comes on...

oh well. all good i spose :chemist:

[Amy]

I saw Matrix: Reloaded yesterday. It was awesome! Everyone has to see it! It is like a good movie!!

My friends found the movie boring I think because about half way through the movie, they started throwing things at everyone and they were talking and yelling <_< But it was funny because we made lots of people get up and sit somewhere else :D

[[Darken Hybrid]]

Some people told me that I was going to be disappointed with the film. That was a lie. I was excited watching the movie from start to finish. This is the best action/sci-fi/thriller film I've ever seen! The second chapter of the Matrix trilogy is a very well updated movie comparing it to the first. First, the action has improved. Tons of action and those Kung Fu techniques are very well done by the actors. Second, the actors. We see a lot of new actors that weren't in the first film and we see the rest of the cast of the first film too. They all were great! And third, the graphics have improved. We see a lot of graphical animations and they are done and used awesomely. Therefore The Matrix is Reloaded! My favorite fight scene is Neo vs. the 100 Mr. Smith replicas. Something that I didn't like was that the story went too deep, so it was kinda complicated to follow the story on Zion, the Sentinels and some Mr. Smith stuff. I hope all of this get cleared up with The Matrix Revolutions, due in November 5, 2003. If was rating this movie from 1 out of 10 would have been 10. It is an excellent flick to keep you glued to your seat with amazement throughout the whole film. I truly recommend this successful sequel!

Matrix explodes at the box office!
According to The Hollywood Reporter, The Matrix Reloaded launched in 13 overseas nations and earned an estimated $31.9 million. Combined with an estimated $135.8 million from the first four days of its North American release, the worldwide total for "Reloaded" stands at an estimated $167.7 million.

"Reloaded" ($42.5 million) beat the opening day record set by Sony's Spider-Man ($39.4 million) last May. Spider-Man still holds the record for best day in box office history, earning $43.6 million on its second day (a Saturday). Spidey was at $125.9 million after four days, while "Reloaded" has already garnered $135.8 million in that amount of time. "Reloaded" is the biggest opening ($93.3 million) ever for an R-rated movie, beating 2001's Hannibal ($58 million).

Meanwhile, Sony's Daddy Day Care enjoyed a strong second weekend for second place and the mutants took third place with X2, which surpassed the first film's $157.3 million and sits at $174 million after three weeks.

[Jawknee]

I was not glued at the edge of my seat during many tedious scenes that lacked anything relevant. Sorry, but I don't see how a 10/10 is a reasonable grade.

There's no way in hell this sequal beats the first movie. The first movie is so much more belieavable.

[Mark]

Alright, maybe i'll turn into a discussion thread about Reloaded. sounds good? Spoilers allowed, i guess.

This can't beat the frist movie, but i gave the first movie a 10/10, so Reloaded ties with it.

[tkd_rap]

i like the first one better, but not that much better, this one was way too off the chain, just like the first. it did improve on alot of things, but still, i think the first is better, even though action is waay cooler in this one, its funnier, and so on.......

favorite lines

"Ok, so you have some skill"

"It's like wipeing your @$$ with silk"

"You could have just ask"

[Datcwazy]

One of the Wachowski (spelling?) brothers said it would be unfair to judge reloaded without seeing revolutions because the second and third movie were really just a big movie split into 2. However, if I were to grade Reloaded, I would give it a 9. I left the theatre saying "wow," and that was all I asked for. The 2 trailers for revolutions look incredible. The fight scenes made me drool.

He said that huh? Funny, I recently told my friends the same thing, that perhaps I shouldn't be so harsh on this movie since it's not truthfully done as it was filmed as one movie. I guess I think like those directors.

I was not glued at the edge of my seat during many tedious scenes that lacked anything relevant. Sorry, but I don't see how a 10/10 is a reasonable grade.

There's no way in hell this sequal beats the first movie. The first movie is so much more belieavable.
I think that you are wrong. Because on this film you can see more fighting, graphical animations that look awesome, and it tells us more about the matrix. The first movie was the introduction. Always the sequel is better than the original, in my opinion. And as the Matrix (1) on being more belieavable, well, they are both science fictions, so they are not based on any real life or any similar situation on movies. By the way, we dont have the same taste on movies. And I rate this movie 10/10 because it's awesome. And then when Revolutions come out if it is better than it's going to be 11/10 or so.... :lol:

Uhh no.

And I didn't pay money to watch graphical animations or whatever the hell you're talking about. You actually enjoyed the CG? Hoo, boy.

It's not only on the animations. I just said that they had more awesome animations. And that the story has gone deep and more kool fights.

[Jawknee]

The animations are not cool - they kill the fighting. I didn't enjoy watching a rubber Neo and a bunch of rubber Smiths. Aaack, forget it. You're easily amused, I guess.

that, or your expectations were too high. the first movie was so good that it might have been hard to make reloaded better. in my opinion, it was just as good.

you probably don't understand how hard it would be to put 50 Agent Smiths in the same frame all doing different things. extremely hard stuff.

I heard that in the scene where Neo uses the pole to beat up the Agent Smiths it used more computerizations that in the whole of the first one. ^_^

well, i didn't see 50 versions of the same person fighting Neo in the first one, that makes sense.

one part where they could have done better was the part where the agent stomped on the car.

[Dedicated]

I saw that on making the movie and thought it didn't look realistic. I AM going to see the film at the weekend :D

OMG thank you so much! WTF is wrong with that agent when he lands on the car?! WHOSE KNEES FUNCTION THAT WAY?! :lol:

Anywho, yes my expectations were too high, but believe it or not, the more I see the movie, the more I like it. Hehe, my rating for it has gone up to an 8/10. I'm going to go watch it again. See ya!

[Hybrid Soldier]

still havent seen it. :(

[Jawknee]

Woohoo, I saw it again after watching the first one right before going. I understand this all completely now.

So far I've seen it 3x.

[tkd_rap]

its a great movie, just the the whole 100 agents was a bit corny, but thats ok, i dont mind, still cool to watch. again i give it a 8/10, i have seen it twice so far

[Jawknee]

Yes, an 8/10 is where it stands. Hey, did everyone remember to watch the trailer at the end? All 3x that I saw it, people just left not knowing about it. I knew it had to be there - kind of common sense.

[Dedicated]

2 days untill I see it :D CANT WAIT!!!! :D :D :D :lol: :lol:

yeah i saw it, i got lucky though, i arrived just in time to the trailer at the end of the showing before me, so i did not have to wait after my movie. then i saw again with a friend, stayed after and saw it again. and its at the end of "Enter The Matrix" its a good trailer, although i havent been to the end of the game yet, i am close though!!!

[Jawknee]

I downloaded the movie and burned it into SVCD format and played it on my DVD player and it works!!! The only problem? It skips. Grr. All that downloading for nothing.

[[Darken Hybrid]]

The new TV Spot says that "there's 3 movies to see this summer. Watch Matrix Reloaded 3 times." I might see it again to understand the story. If anyone wants the Revolutions trailer from the game right click the next link and save as. http://hem.passagen.se/fazaa/the.matrix.re...revolutions.mpg (http://hem.passagen.se/fazaa/the.matrix.revolutions.mpg)

[Jawknee]

That link doesn't work. I actually just bought the game off of Ebay for $35 (with shipping) and shall be getting it in a few days.

So far I've seen this move 3 times - I want to see it at least one more time! The more I watch it, the more I like it. ^_^

[mirtheory]

Does anybody know where I can download it? I've already seen it in a cinema & it was great, then I tryed to download it from kazaa, but that was another movie :(

[Cal]

i seen it last night

it was FREAKIN AWESOME! :D

loads of effects right from the start
