Let me clarify - I THOUGHT Kill Bill was crap. After seeing the trailers, and being a huge fan of funky Hong Kong kung-fu movies and strange Japanese samurai-style movies, I was looking forward to KB.
I nearly fell asleep watching it (maybe it gets better with Volume 2). And sorely missed the usual Taranito dialogue (like from Pulp Fiction).

id agree that the dialogue wasnt as good as id thought it would be but the action etc made up for that (and as you say its only half a film; reloaded improves once youve seen revolutions)

Well i love all three films the same

TheOmega> I understand that is your opinion but since you mention that you enjoy "funky Hong Kong kung-fu" then Kill Bill is a perfect example of one them. No dialogue just action pack sword fighting and kung fu battles. The trailers gave us hints that this was going to be a totally different QT flick. Here is a hint: "The yellow biker suit".

Now going back to the topic Matrix 2 was a movie I didn't enjoy. But I would be Insane to say that it doesn't deserve recognition for outstanding effects. Same for Revolutions the plots maybe hard to understand (for some of us) but the action and effects deserve a top spot in any best movies of the year.

Thays exactly why i was so upset I too love Kill Bill Vol.1 i think it is a fantastic film but The Matrix Sequels have some of the finest effects showcased this year! how can neither be in the Top 10 films of 2003!

I dunno know who is the guy that made that top ten list. He needs to edited and put Reloaded and Revolutions in there. If you find him.....KICK HIS BUTT!! 😄

im just reading his review of Revolutions...

Possible Keanu and Woss Interview -

Woss: Wibble Wobble Kill Bill...Wib Wob Wobble Wobbley Ok...Matrix Revolutions Wobble Wib Wib Wibbley. Top 10...Wobble 10...Wobble Wibble Matrix...

Keanu: What the hell are you talking about Jonathan? I don't understand him?!

Woss: Wobble Wibble Wibbley? What Wob wobbles is Wibbles the wibbley Matrix? And...Wobble Matrix Wibble Crap...

Keanu: OK...You done it now! I'm going to go wobbles on your ass!

And by the way...Korri...How' you doin?

Korri>im just reading his review of Revolutions...

"I'm not convinced that this adds anything to the 1999 film, which was remarkable for its freshness and imagination. Moreover, the dialogue and the cod philosophy in evidence here makes the first third of this movie pretty heavy going for all but the hardened Matrix zealot, and there's no emotional depth or drive of the kind which would make this a truly stirring epic."

id say it does add alot to the series but obviously the more of a 'hardened Matrix zealot' you are the more you will like it.

"Redeeming features include the scale and quality of the battle scenes, while the slightly inconclusive ending is far more daring than I had come to expect, translating the complexity of high quality fiction into that most mundane of modern cinema genres, the big budget action movie."

"Had Reloaded and Revolutions been condensed into one film, I believe we'd now have a Matrix sequel which could stand the test of time alongside the original. As it is, the result is three visually stunning movies which display huge amounts of imagination but which don't sustain their fairly thin basic premise."

yeah 2+3 would be more popular if they were judged as one film.
surely a good premise that is expanded upon?

The Matrix Revolutions can be seen nationwide now. Striking and impressive in many ways, but ultimately one for the fans"

fair comment...?

Ice Lightning> 😆 oh gawd ur killing me! and How u doin 😉

mook> i still think it deserved to be in the top 10 and "Woss" is still an idiot

I still think that 90% of the people who say the Matrix has 'cod' philosophy have absolutely no comprehension of what that term means.

Silverfighter> See, if I want “funky Hong Kong kung-fu” then I watch one of those. Kill Bill was leaning so heavily against those films and Japanese Samurai-style movies, that it bordered on copy-cat (like the yellow suit Thurman was wearing near the end) that Tarantino HAD to do MORE than just copying – he didn’t.

And Happy New Year everyone.

Happyyy new yearr!!! Haha im 2 days late but what the heck...and I have no idea who this "Jonathan Woss" guy is, and uh...does he really talk with those "wobble wibble??" I am nowhere near The European regions 🤪

^ see he is an idiot!

dragonpisces> no its a show on uk tv that impersonates celebrities! 😆 its called Bo Selecta! they just take the piss out of him

woss = woos

Anyone with that style of clothes is... correction... he doesn't have ANY style. 🙂

Its obvious what goes on in movies, if you "greese" the right coggs you get good reviews.
The most critics look for such cosh as "acting talent" "Emotion in the character" " and "dramatical situations which let the actor shine" and all that sort of stuff. The matrix´s are action movies, you dont get any marks for cool action or super effects by critics. Look at the Movies which win oscars, they are all boring in my opinion apart from Ghandi.

Its time these pricks realised that we arn´t all after these artistic values in movies but other things like action, imagination, cool breathtaking effects. In this case The Matrix movies are the No. 1 of the year by far.

I kinda like Jonathan to be honest...hes a good entertainer..soz Korri...still dis-agree with the either Reloaded OR Revolutions not being on Top 10...but he he said Titanic was the worst movie ever made..lol..and I agree hehehe...Wobbles HeeeHeeee....btw...im doin good Korri...

well its the publics vote not ross's

and just because he doesnt like the film is no need to resort to personal attacks on the man, speech impediments arent funny.

coming from one of the people who told me everyone is allowed their own opinion without being flamed for it i do not respect this thread

Yeah.....but when u make comments about the Matrix without even acknowledging the success it had among fans, ur opinion is a joke! This guy only goes by what they tell him commercialwise....For that, he doesn't deserve my respect! IMO..... 🙄
