Just watched the movie. It's one of the best movies.

I had read this article (http://www.beliefnet.com/story/126/story_12678_1.html) after watching The Matrix Reloaded couple months ago.

It's interesting that the Revolution ends with Sanskrit 'Slok' - Asato ma sat gamaya, Tamaso ma jotir gamaya...'

Hmmmm....

isolated freak Posted on 05-Nov-03 09:32 AM

tobasco and all,

we have to wait for 4 weeks, at least to see it here. So, just don't write down the story etc. now. You know it sort of takes away the fun.. good reviews without any indication whatsoever about teh edning will be much appreciated though.

NK Posted on 05-Nov-03 09:48 AM

When I read review by A.O. Scott (NYTimes), I could not helpmyself but laugh!

Here is a bit of excerpt:

"... The talk of endings in this, the third and ostensibly final movie in the series, is so insistent that you may wonder whether the Wachowski brothers, who wrote and directed it, felt the need to reassure the audience, and perhaps themselves, that it was really, finally over. There are still a few loose ends that might be spun into future sequels - "The Matrix Recycled," perhaps, or the "The Matrix Recall Election" or "The Matrix Recipe Book and Holiday Menu Planner" (featuring the Oracle's baking tips) - but the saga of Neo, which began in 1999 when he was a scruffy hacker who took a red pill, has now by all appearances reached its terminus..."

And Scott goes on, "... Matrix Reloaded was certainly a lumpy, gaseious treatise of a movie, but viewers of "Revoltions" may find themselves looking aback on it fondly..."
Hmmm... makes you wonder, don't you think??

Me? Saw the first one. Skipped the second one. Third one? Which third one?? Oh *The One* with the "cool" Sanskrit verse at the end and also who has a character named 'Sati'? I think I will pass that one too.
KALANKISTHAN Posted on 05-Nov-03 09:34 PM

Reviews were pretty bad; I didn't have much hope from this movie.
But hey, it's Matrix. You gotta watch it no matter what. :D:D:D

... And hey, Tell you what? It turned out to be way better than reviews. (Now don't compare it with first installment of Matrix) hehe..

Few questions: Unanswered... however the movie had lots of twists and truns, which I found exciting. Of course, special effects is a killer one... There are more to tell but I just don't wanna give away any spoilers. eh!

(Didn't really hear any "Sanskirt" sloka. Probably I was busy trying to figure out 'few things'.

Sati name goes well with the character, but NK hazur, movie naherikana kina naak khumchyaa ho ni hau? hehe.. enjoyed that excerpt from NYT. That's exactly what I thought when I came out of the theater, is there more of the Matrix? Seems like that!
gaaunle Posted on 05-Nov-03 11:43 PM

I was disappointed with the "Revolution". There was no twists and turns of previous movies, neither was there any"(!!) "philosophical" elements.

But, I wonder what was the significance of starting (quite at the begining) the movie with Indian characters and ending with Sanskrit slok !
porcelina Posted on 06-Nov-03 01:26 AM

dont think there was anything wrong with the sanskrit slok.. by the way.. i need to brush up on my sanskrit.. what does 'asato ma sataa gaamaya, ..... ' mean?? its just that i gave a couple of khaire's a few of my versions of the translation...

i thought the entire seuel of the Matrix put together are a terrific combo... wouldn't mind watching it again. whens the next lord of the rings coming out>??
BRIT Posted on 06-Nov-03 01:44 AM

The Next Lord Of The Rings is coming out on 17th December 2003.

Porcelina,

How about an ending of LOTR? interested?? :D:D:D
porcelina Posted on 06-Nov-03 11:12 AM

PLEEEEASE.. I JUST CANT WAIT!
dautari Posted on 06-Nov-03 02:45 PM

porcelina, don't give away the end of the Matrix Revolutions in here. There are a few of us who are waiting till the weekend to go and watch it. Have mercy on us. hehe

And yes, another movie I am EAGERLY waiting for is LOTR: The Return Of The King. Dec 18 - that's the last day of our final exams .. and boy, are we going to celebrate the end of the term .. by going to the movies. The RA of my dorm is a die-hard LOTR fan and he says he'll arrange for all of us to go and watch it together. cool.
porcelina Posted on 06-Nov-03 02:48 PM

wow... i keep picking up the books to read, but unfortunately i cannot finish it!!! how the hell can i keep myself interested??

please please please let me tell!!
isolated freak Posted on 07-Nov-03 09:14 AM

Finally saw the matrix today. a great ending for one of the greates movies ever made. I liked it.

Now I have 15 Matrix postcards and a huge Matrix Poster with Chinese characters. that's the fun o fw atching movies in China. China Mobile is promoting itself by giving out postcards of matrix at theaters in Beijing. Anyone interested in having those cool cards, come to China! :-)




Sadabichar Posted on 07-Nov-03 09:19 AM

They found that all three parts of Matrix has the same religous message:

Buy Video Games!!!

thanks for your tip about the spoilers, kalanki...
mickthesick Posted on 08-Nov-03 04:58 PM

i just have to confess....i haven't watched the star-trek series and the star-wars series......but i can bet that matrix series is definitely gonna beat them out if incase there's a competetion.

and yeah...the third part of matrix like the other two, did have philosophical discussions. and the ending was one of the best i have ever seen.....the ending verse so frequently used in buddhism seals the saga.....i think the verses perfectly suit the situation in the movie....

it's an awesome pleasure to the brain and eyes ...if any of you guys haven't seen the movie.....go see it...you won't regret it.

Nepali Kanchi Posted on 08-Nov-03 06:34 PM

They definately left room for more, i guess they'll deliver this via Anamatrix and comics. I'm not gonna discuss this since, seems some hardcore fans still have to watch this movie.
confused Posted on 08-Nov-03 08:41 PM

AWESOME MOVIE MUST SEE>>>THE COMBINATION OF REAL AND UNREAL >>MAKES YOU THINK WHAT IS REAL>>
confused Posted on 08-Nov-03 09:03 PM

Wachowski brothers make great movies and have differnet taste on every movie..but one thing remains the same on every one of their moive..LESBIANS>.it seems like they happen to love lesbians..good goin bros
dautari Posted on 17-Nov-03 04:50 PM

did i miss something? I don't remember seeing any lesbians in matrix revolutions. Surely, I must have missed something ...
lll_lll Posted on 17-Nov-03 08:37 PM

just holla at me if u want to know the ending of LOTR. I have read all ther three books. The story is really great, now doubt about that...... but the ending is kinda "Khyassa" kehi na kehi. I don't know how they would do in in the movies but if it similar to the book as it has been so far, all I can say is "Khyassa".
confused Posted on 18-Nov-03 06:18 AM

when they try to keep the machines off remember that black gal says she wants to stay and she has a lesbian patner...with her???
Biruwa Posted on 18-Nov-03 07:15 AM

Confused,

You mean the team of two, one of whom is killed?

How can you say that they are lesbians? They were acting together. One loading the launcher and other firing? Isn't that it?

Truely enjoyed the movie last week on veterans day. Unfortunately missed the sanskrit slok. Looks like they might have blanked out this part for some sensitive areas. What say?

But the sanskrit slok does seem to be an appropriate ending.
at Posted on 18-Nov-03 08:29 AM

asato ma sad gamaya : From the unreal, lead me to the real : Matrix
tamaso ma jyotir gamaya : From darkness, lead me to the light : Matrix Reloaded
mrtyor mamrtam gamaya: From death, lead me to immortality : Matrix Revolution

Now that makes sense.
darshankaka Posted on 18-Nov-03 08:37 AM

The only way to rationalize my going to theater and watching this III part of Matrix, is that I had watched earlier 2 parts, and so in order to complete the series I went to this last one (at least last one for me, if they come up with fourth part, then I will wait ontil it will come to the Cable TV, and I will watch is for free).

1. The rig (driller) shown in the Matrix Revolution is nothing new, if you have watched the movie "Total Recall". Same stuff but with littlemodification and technology.

2. This movie tells you about Virus and anti-virus, which we daily face in our real world with our computers. The story is only about graphically showing you how anti-virus works, but with a twist as if the virus world have existence. In our regular life, we have been inserting anti-virus software into our CD-ROM drive, and let the program take care of the virus, which is not visible to us. Matrix is about exactly that part.

3. Animations, visual effects and technolgoy. Aren't we already bored about those things to watch in themoves? Now that we know how they doit in the studio.. so what's the fun? It's no longer the mystery. If we close our eyes, we can create even better imaginary world inside our head!!! But we tend to pay those guys.
