I agree with ya MonkSpider, I thought the second was better than the first.
My only gripe so far with any of the Matrix's (haven't seen Animatrix (sp?) ) is if they are gonna have a love affair with the character Trinity couldn't they have found a hotter/sexier actress to play Trinity that (insert actress's name here) whats-her-face.
If you can't Dazzle them with Brilliance, Baffle them with Bull****.
The whole Matrix/Animatrix story is flawed at a very basic level. First: there is no way human bodies are the most effective energy source. And second: how are the humans getting their energy and why aren't the machines using the same means. Thus saving themselves the effort of building and maintaining matrices and fighting rebels.
Yes
When I saw the first and Morpheus makes his well-know speech about how humans are not reduced to THIS (and takes out a small battery) I was so appaled...Evere one at told me about the great plot...
To someone who knows a bit about physics or biology, it is well-known 1.The human body is very poor in terms of efficiency, ranking something like 10%
2.They probably could get more energy-wise by burning whatever they feed the bodies than whatever the body produces...
Of course the premise still works, you just have to find another reason why they would have to keep all the bodies around and build a Matrix....
I think you just have to look past that one LulThyme...besides the human body is extremely efficient compared to an internal combustion engine, but on the other hand, we obtain all our energy indirectly from sunlight (photosynthesis -> ruminant mammals -> yummy steak -> us) so if the planet is blacked out then there would be nothing to feed us But don't get too caught up in things like that, remember, it is only fiction after all
