Star Wars is THE trilogy, if you dont count phantom menace....although thats an interesting movie...the first time i saw it, i was blown away, thinking it was really awesome...and every time i see it, i like it less and less, im now in the disliking it...but its still quite a phenomenon. Kolben, i challenge you to come up with a storyline that could replace all the problems you see with the matrix, and still have as good a movie. I really doubt you can, and untill you can, you shouldnt talk about the problems with other peoples work, its not your place. Id say that applies to everything though - untill you can outdo someone's work, its not your place to criticize it.

The story in matrix has a problem and I'm saying it out loud. I even told what I thought was wrong about it. I paid for the movie and I felt that there was something wrong with it. That's what I'm saying. I'm not the writer who get's paid so why the fuck should I be the one finding the solutions? I see a movie to be entertained, and I expect it to be good. When I see a bad movie I paid for it annoys me, and I don't really care what the solutions are. Fact is that it was a bad experience, and that I could have used my money elsewhere. I won't try to make the movie better, or solve it's problems. That's not my job. That's the producers job, before it hits the big screen. And what good would it do to solve the problems either. The movie will still be the same.This discussion is too lameass stupid, because I actually know what you mean, but I really don't care, because I've got another point of view. And you can't change that...So stop bitching about people saying what the mean, without thinking about solving the worlds problems while doing it. I'm a chemist and my job is to synthesize chemicals. Not to be a politician, not to be a writer, not to be a car manufacturer. If someone came up to me and said "this fuckin' compound is crap" about the thing he has paid me to do, I'd analyse it and make it better. I don't expect the poor guy to come up with a solution to the problem, because he's probably not educated to do so. Like when I pay for something and it doesn't work, I'll say "it doesn't work, fix it, or give me my money back". I won't expect people to demand that I come up with a way to fix it...that's just stupid. Then I could have made it myself from the start. In my oppinion your oppinion is stupid!

you say he was a lam0r. why do you say that?...back up what you say with proof...youve done it again...you say "he was a lam0r" not "he was a lam0r, because when he was fighting darth vader it didnt look real". the simple truth is, you always have opinions that are based on your perception of the fact. if your just making stuff up with out any fact to base it on, you do not have a valid argument whatsoever

no, its not the same, youre suggesting that their story has holes, but you yourself havent got an inkling of an idea what they should do to make the story work, im not saying you have to rewrite the script, but a part of constructive criticism is coming up with examples of how to improve things. for example, if i build a car, and it breaks, if you say "your car it dumb, it doesnt work" thats just stupid. if you say "your car is dumb, heres an idea to make it better" then your being constructive. all your writings up there are just saying "the matrix wouldnt work" not "the matrix wouldnt work, but it would work if this happened"...thats a big difference
