Going to see the rerun of Matrix Reloaded. I loved the first but somehow missed the second and really want to see it on the screen. But Dav is away and it's a hard sell to my none busy friends so I'm going solo. Funny that the last time I saw a movie on my own was to see the first Matrix a second time. Since Dav has the car, I am taking the bus which is super late...I miss Tokyo's public transportation...



So I saw it. Um, I liked the crazy hwy scenes. I usually don't like crashing cars, but this was pretty cool...in the same way I usually detest violent gun scenes but I loved the one in the first Matrix movie. Other than that, did anyone else feel the second one scooted a bit too much to the overly dramatic side? Like Neo flying all Superman-like...and all that lovey dovey-ness? I love love stories, don't get me wrong. But I just didn't really want all that in this movie. I wanted more cool scenes...Overall, I guess I was a bit disappointed, but I'll wait for the third before making any final judgements...

Cave Rave!
I had mixed feelings on Matrix 2 myself. but overall I enjoyed it enough. Definitely looking forward to the third one.
p.s. I'm jealous you're going to Goa Gil without me. but I'm having a good time at Foo Camp so far, see you Sunday at Decompression!
p.p.s Don't forget to look for the Journey of Man tape for Singer/
p.p.p.s. -squeeze- :)

You know the scene where Neo is shown naked from behind and there are those black spots (holes) from the plugs... I bet some people went and got tatooed like that..

The dvd is out here since y'day, and we had a reloaded session yesternight - I'm happy we saw it so shortly before Nov 5.
