MATRIX RELOADED vs. ATTACK OF CLONES
Well, lets hear which one is better.
When the previous movies came out in 1999 PHANTOM MENACE won the box office, but it seemed like many liked THE MATRIX more. And now what are your thoughts?

Matrix destroys, demolishes, crushes, obliterates, annihilates, pulverizes, razes, smashes, ravages, mangles, multilates, and decimates Attack of the Clones. And then some.

The acting might be a little better in TMR but Keanu Reeves already pulls you down to sub par and the dialog in the TMR was horrible. I love the action scenes but as far as plot dialog and pacing TMR is definitely a downer.

Clones. At least it wasn't being too serious about itself. Call it a bad movie or what, but it was a FUN movie and wasn't pretending to be anything else. Reloaded was trying too much to be everything at the same time, and failing. IMO of course.

TMR. But AOTC wasn't bad. Neither is a complete, great movie. Both are good flicks with moments worth seeing over and over, like certain fight scenes, etc. TMR seems to fit in as a 'middle' movie better, so I rank it higher.
Extending the comparison to other 2nd movies: Empire Strikes Back and Godfather II still rank about a billion points ahead of all others. (I ignore LOTR since that is truly one story broken into 3 pieces for space/time considerations)

But not shocked enough to dig up that Claude Raines graphic.

I actually like AOTC, but Reloaded was a beter movie. I had ZERO desire to see AOTC in the theater again. Now if you compare the original Matrix to the original Star Wars...

Matrix Reloaded has characters with names that MEAN something, so much so that you can spend hours researching and discussing their significance and meaning. ATOC (and TPM) have characters with names created by George Lucas' 3 year-old which mean ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to anyone who isn't George Lucas' 3 year-old. That's good enough for me.
