We all remember Ol' Harry's review of AOTC, Reloaded and any other film a few months in advance...


They usually love it and then when the masses dislike it they turn around and start the bash.

Regardless, these reviews have got me pretty excited for the
movie, and I think they are right about one thing, this one isn't
going to be hyped as bad as Reloaded (at least it hasn't seemed
to be) so maybe expectations won't be as high and it'll be better
because of it.

It is getting ad space left and right. the majority of the hype about reloaded was fan created. Much like what was done with episode 1 and episode 2 of SW. the public makes it to a level where of course it wont be enjoyable unless jesus came out of the screen.

But this time most everyone's expectations are lowered after being disappointed by Reloaded. I know mine are.

(I was only marginally disappointed)

hmm, seen some, but no where near Reloaded. I'm not a big
fan of this series, but would love for the final installment to be
better than the last.

All I heard about before the last movie was the Big fight between
Neo and all the Agents. They were showing it on talk shows
and everything. As of yet, all I've seen on Revolutions is the
trailer.

by the way, the whole Jesus line...funny.

I think people bash AICN because most of their reviews aren't really reviews...they are more along the lines of recording the comments of a 16 year old as he exits the theater. Stuff like:

"oh my f#$% ^&* god, this movie was the bomb!"

or

"holy s#$%, this film sucks donkey doo!"

If there's one thing I've learned from reading AICN, it would have to be "never trust a single reader review" because most of them are fanboy reviews, or they are plants for the studio.

Is that why a Matrix Revolutions subform hasn't been created like there was for Reloaded? We're two weeks away from Revolutions, and IIRC, the Reloaded subform was created more than 2 weeks prior to the release.

Anyway, I can wait for Revolutions. Is anybody else going to watch this movie at "Zero Hour"?

Good point. I'm getting pretty antsy for this movie, and I'd love to start getting into some discussion about the series. Of all the movies I've seen in the past few years, few have sparked as much debate and discussion as The Matrix. We definately need a forum.

Mods, are you listening?

after the crazy ammount of activity after Reloaded what more is there to talk about? i think EVERY possible plot line for Revolutionswas talked about we'll just have to wait till it hits theaters to discuss it further.

the Reloaded sub-forum was worse than a Star Wars Spoiler forum and that's saying a lot.......even though i did my fair share of talking after Reloaded

I don't think Harry reviewed the film yet, dumbass. It's one of his spies or some shee-it.

Funny, i remember reading quite a few dissapointed reviews of Reloaded. And sure enough... there were quite a few dissapointed movie goers. Go figure.

But Harry wasn't all that thrilled with Reloaded, wrinkle dick. So you pointing out his review of Reloaded in your first post is not only stupid but idiotic, idiotic stupid head.
