oh…….. now this is a hard one…. I must say, no matter what I will always be a Matrix Fan because of its concept and it’s story, the first Matrix was a superb movie because of its fresh thinking, story line and it’s well planned out directing, but when the 2nd and the 3rd came out, those things were gone, they were again sucked into the big special effect & guns blackhole that hollywood have created, very entertaning to see Smith getting smashed across the head with a stop sign, but it just wasn’t the same. So I guess Lord Of the Rings gets my vote for being well planned and directed but…I will still be a matrix fan. 😉
June 26, 2004 at 12:13 am #88470NioreHMemberWell, Both of the movies got a very good story.
I believe it´s pretty hard to make a movie from one of Tolkien´s books, and I admire Peter Jackson for his work.
I never thought he would be able to make a serious movie.
If you look at his earlier projects like Braindead and Bad Taste you will understand what I mean.But I also like the Wachowski Brothers and there “Matrix”.
The story is endless, It´s a whole new world.
And I hope there will be more movies, the last one was stunning 🙂June 26, 2004 at 12:40 am #88466DeadMan25MemberWell I would have to say Lord of The Rings , I liked the 1st and 3rd matrix but I just couldn’t really get into the 2nd one
😡
June 26, 2004 at 11:52 am #88452PhilMemberThe Matrix was amazing and slowly got worse…even though I absolutely loved Matrix Reloaded.. but for me, the Lord of the Rings was better because it got better and better…however, I love the Matrix so I was way more excited about seeing that than LotR…so its a bit of both! 😎
June 26, 2004 at 3:59 pm #88459AwesomeSauceParticipantI went to see the third LOTR last Christmas, and you know, it was like 3-1/2 hours long. I couldn’t really tell what was going on and I almost fell asleep a few times. But The Matrix? The Matrix is absolutely awesome! Unfortunately, I haven’t seen The Matrix Reloaded….. It looks cool though. The matrix had some gross parts in it… But other than that it was awesome.
June 26, 2004 at 5:49 pm #88469kyuubiMemberdo you self a favor AwesomeSauce, if you watched the 1st one and think its awsome…..just leave it like that…the rest is just………not as intresting….so yea..
June 26, 2004 at 8:03 pm #88467AragornsQueen01Participantoh, do you even have to ask?! The first Matrix was great, Lord of the Rings was…AWSOME…er great too. The whole Matrix trilogy was….good, but the Lord of the Rings trilogy was amazing…I guess I may be a little biased…
(EDIT!!! ok, I hadn’t read all of the posts before I posted, so I just wanted to tell 912 that he shouldn’t speak for all Australians. I know that people over there liked this movie, and you are stupid! Oh sorry you not stupid, Mom is always telling me to be nice to mentaly challenged people, I really try hard. please excuse me, no hard feelings? Ok good. just try not to speak for your whole country with you opinions. If you want, I have some Australian friends, I can have them tell you there opinions.)

Hard core blasting explosion, and the other group is to see how the producers handled each obsticle in the book. Now the Matrix is not a bad movie but the ending sucks. The special effects were the only thing I was looking forward to. You obviously know Neo has to die, and smith dies. everything is happy again. the BAM. MATRIX RELOADED.
