Or, Wayne, we could have just taken the song line-by-line? Each person would continue the song rather than one giant post by one person?

Ah. I just assumed it was like another, lousier Billy Baldwin or something.
MY BAD KIDS. Spaced on it that I'd even seen that episode of Firefly. Man, it's really out of this world that I forgot :( Wayne, your disparaging remark hit me so hard, I'm seeing stars.

Wow. Impressive. Martin Sheen!
Althought I must say, I met Michael Hogan in Pasadena earlier this year and not only is that man the shit, he was Saul Tigh!
Do want.

There is a lot to be said for all the actors on BSG, but I always thought Michael Hogan was fucking amazing.

For that very mistake, I think Joystiq should hand in its geek card.

There were sequels to Matrix? Man they must have sucked if I never heard of them... I the first movie was it. I mean, it's pretty clear by the end of the first Movie that Neo frees humanity.... eventually.
(PS: Yes I saw both sequels and they sucked so bad I have decided to erase them from history, I only own the first movie Anniversary Edition on Blu-ray)

I'd like to amend my comment by also saying that in the future, when I have children, I will only tell them there was only one Matrix movie. If after they see the first movie, they ask if there were any other films, I will say no.
I will make sure they never find about the stupidity that was the sequels.

neither Matrix sequel sucked nearly as hard as every geekbag trying to out-do the other with their anti-Matrix rants.. We get it.. (And you too, Joystiq) Finding a single scrap of mediocre enjoyment via either film represents a holocaust of cinematic-taste worse than Uwe Boll's stunning coup d'tat in acquiring the licensing for the Zelda franchise.. O NO I'm doing it too

1st one was good but if you already played the first game then there's no real need to read it. It describes how Captain Anderson knows Saren and how Saren came into possesion of Soverign.
2nd one I didn't like as much, but I don't know how it ties into the 2nd game just yet. It involves a very powerful young biotic girl, Cerberus, The Collectors (to a very brief extent), and the Quarian Flotilla.

He's been in everything lately. It's gotten to the point where if I don't hear his voice in a AAA title I start to wonder if something happened to him lol.

Nice Joystiq, I see what you did there by crossing out David Keith's name since there is an actor by that name. Hahahaha

The Matrix was a great trilogy. All THREE movies were entertaining.

There are some points where sarcasm is funny. Witty. Hell, even insightful.
This is not one of those times. That very combination of words if a harbinger of our doom.

We understand them, but the films completely destroyed the cool mystery of the 1st film, and included stupid religious parallels. Plus the ending sucked, I much prefered the MEGA SMITH Ending in 'the path of neo' HE TAKES SUNGLASSES OFF A BILLBOARD AND WEARS THEM. Total Comedy Value.

The last two movies are definitely different than the first, in that they require a brain to enjoy. Something that most people on this planet carry around as if it were a piece of luggage they do not understand how to use.
To MrAlex, if you missed the religious parallels in the first movie then you're not only stupid, you're blind.

Possibly the worst fucking parts of 2 and 3 were this:
1. The agents prove almost no threat whatsoever even for those who aren't Neo, this completely removes the excellent high levels of tension In the many chase scenes of the first film. At no point is the protagonist in danger.
2. The Oracle and the Architect both do really stupid things without any motive for doing so, often contrasting their previous behaviour.
3. Keanu Reeves' ass crack.
4. Keanu Reeves' ass crack.
