Meh, Baby Jessica is 25 and has her own baby.

I remember the Matrix coming out on DVD, which apparently was a big deal, as it was one of the first big movies to be mass produced on DVD

You can tell, it's so horribly dated. . .

I mean, pay phones in public places?

"The Matrix" was a great movie. It's too bad they never made any sequels.

So there should be a crop of kids named Neo and Trinity about to enter junior high.

And that's about the last time we've seen Hollywood push a major/big budgeted R-rated movie. Now all they make is PG-13 movies so they can sell more tickets.
Sad.

hitlo58: WHAT, that means I... Was... Eight... Holy shiat.

I was 16. Oh hey, my high school reunions this summer! And damn you were just a baby then.

Shame they never made a sequel.

LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA I CAN'T HEAR YOU

And they're already sick of Ayn Rand.

I know it boggles my mind. I remember... I actually remember when this came out.

Yep. I knew so many people that bought DVD players because of the Matrix.

Good news, everyone!

/whoa

Has the 'Woman in Red' now become a lonely old cougar?

Bullshiat. I had this all figured out in my head at least 20 years ago.

weirdly enough me too... And I'm 20.

pwn3d781: "The Matrix" was a great movie. It's too bad they never made any sequels.

THIS. So much potential, I wonder why they never bothered to make any more movies.

My first date with my fiancee was seeing "The Matrix" in theater. We were in high school and pretty much had nothing to do except see a movie, so we figured we'd see "that crappy Keanu Reeves movie... the one that looks like another 'Johnny Mnemonic'".

We're getting married in June.

Yes, I held out a LONG time.

Oh god, I was 14 years old, freshman in high school, and seeing that movie at the theater was the last thing I did with my friends before my epic 3 month vacation to Europe.

Now I'm 26 years old, stuck in a cubicle, have a 401k, and I'm going to get married in a less than month.

Christ on a cracker I feel old.

/get off my non-existent apartment lawn?

I really liked the entire series. 12 years ago today my fragile little mind was blown.

I watched the original last week(the only good one), and I was forced to re-evaluate the whole concept.

It's the future, where the earth is a blasted, burned out cinder of it's former self, the sky has been scorched, the earth is dark, and machines rule humanity with such totality that almost no one can even conceive of the truth.

The choice-continue living the lie of the Matrix, or else accept "reality" and live in hiding deep under the earth eating shiat food and in constant fear of extermination by cyber killers relentlessly stalking every construct of reality to find you.

At this point, i would say "reality" is overrated.
Any thinking person would choose the Matrix.

Seriously, are they ever going to make a sequel? I always thought there was good material there, but I guess no one ever decided to.

The headline has better acting than the lead character

GoSurfing: Saw The Matrix in the theater. Loved it. I'm sure many farkers saw it in the theater, but that seemed to be a movie that grew a bit over time with DVD sales. I don't believe it had a Star Wars type box office. I choose to ignore the sequels.

Yeah, I was expecting absolutely nothing walking into that theater and ended up seeing one of the best movies of the decade. I remember trying to CONVINCE people to see it afterwards, and people were very skeptical. It took a LONG time to catch on, compared to nowadays where a film is a blockbuster before it's even released. I think the only comparable recent movie is "Iron Man", which I don't think many people expected to be good.

Terrible movie. The first one, that is. Never wanted to see the rest.

my 25th high school reunion is this year. talk about feelin' old...

Awesome. Now to crank "Wake up" by RATM.

Congrats. First date with my wife was for the same flick (though I had already seen it four times). We got hitched last November.

You held out longer, but only because I needed to get on her insurance plan. Romantic, no?

I didn't feel old until once in college, 2005, my friend and I realized that Beauty and the Beast was older than most kids entering high school at the time.

It was immediately followed by him saying "Katja. I fear you and I may be getting too old to be uppity, ironic hipsters."

"There is no sequel to 'The Matrix.'"

They never made a sequal! LOOOLLOLLO!!!11!one!

So it comes to: slave in mediocre world, or free in a hellish world.

The matrix was false to only those who had been outside of it.

There's a great deal to those movies that doesn't stand to scrutiny (like the human battery idea), but they are movies. Not science text books so i'm willing to let it slide.

vlakorados: Awesome. Now to crank "Wake up" by RATM.

I liked the remix of Dragula that they used in that movie. What was the name of that remix? It was f*cking awesome. TO THE iTUNES STORE!!!

Like with many trilogies, the second one was the best.
