WOW this thread has sure went off topic.  I can\'t see how you guys were debating this long over it. I get into the same type of arguments with my mom as you did with MM soul.

I just don\'t see how a single person can tell you what is good and what is bad.  I mean the matrix is not good because it took parts from other movies.  Everything is a copy nothing is original.

Everything has been taken from something.  And Watching 50 thousand old movies won\'t make me think matrix sucks either.

MM no matter what the subject is.  You think your better and wiser than everyone else. That is all you do. It\'s kind of sad when your that selfish and self-centered.

How is that you don\'t RESPECT other opinions, but everyone is supose to RESPECT yours. If you don\'t like the matrix that is fine, but how your going to tell people they are not intellegent because they like it. OMG you who call be childish should grow up yourself.


I don\'t like those lord of the rings movies and thats my opinion I can\'t tell millions of people there stupid because I feel it\'s not good cinema:rolleyes:

Well, I OWN Tron, Osamu Tezuka\'s Metropolis, and The Matrix.

I DON\'T think that any of them are a rehash of another, though if you want to find common elements, you can (especially if your looking at "bad guy" "good guy" type elements).  What I can say, mm, is that you shouldn\'t judge the matrix based on the past work of the brothers (ie, assasins).  The godfather series were all written/directed by the same guys, and we know how they stack up.  The director of tron did other movies... all crap.. and now he\'s filming a sequel to tron - maybe a gem, maybe just a crappy sequel.

I think that you should take off the blinkers that you wear coming into a regular hollywood movie that pre-concieve that the movie is going to suck, because amidst the crap that hollywood churns out these days, there are movies that are just excellent.

The Matrix was one of them.
The Matrix reloaded was not.
Other excellent (hollywood type) movies:  Fight club, Signs, Dark City, Gladiator, Ghost in the Shell.

Everyone is entitled to their opinions, and IMHO, your cynical movie-world view is what is preventing you from finding and enjoying some very good movies.

I\'m goin to pretend that I didn\'t read someone saying Spiderman was a success and Batman "sucked".

Because, if I did - I\'d probably have to go apeshit and start cussing everyone in random spurts.

BURN! Batman (1989) was one of the greatest flicks!

Explain to me how capturing to "video avi" format from a game is illegal. I\'m not talking away any sales they make, nor am i taking away any future sales. Do people pay to see the trailer at the offical site. It\'s not like I\'m giving out free versions of the game. Its a capture from a video game running a trailer. I highly doubt you could get in trouble for freely distributing a trailer that\'s already available on the net. The other ingame movies i could understand. They are giving away things that people buy the game for. But a trailer... Come on

Unfortunately hollywood has been going nuts about trailers.  Most trailer sites have been forced to remove direct-download links, and you have to goto sites to see game/movie trailers.

They claim the reason behind it is that they want to track how many and who watches the trailers (you often must accept non session cookies to watch on sites), but that\'s just bull$(*#.  It\'s crazy, but it\'s technically no longer allowed to have downloaded trailer collections.

Like FatalXception said, Hollywood are going nuts over the whole rights over trailers.

plus if you read the manual that came with the game, and look under the licence section (the legal part) you will find that they take a down view on ripping images, concepts or even material from their product.

As for images and videos on the net... well for the most part the main sites have to ask for permision to publish materials from the rightful owners.

Actually there have been quite a few really solid Australian movies released since them, some quite recent, too.

I recommend you see Rabbit Proof Fence (if you haven\'t already) if you can get your hands on it.  :)
