Its gettting to the point where if some had it their way, they would delete entire sections of words out of the dictionary.

I stopped telling people they "don’t know shit" a long time ago. Its insensitive. Now I just tell them they’re "fecally noncognizant".

I love the "calorically challenged soda"…

Speaking of political correstness I highly suggest you check out the following:

Among my favorite definitions are:

Failure: non-traditional success
Mugging: unforeseen funding of underclass
Pissed off: satisfaction deprived
Worst: Least best

Aaahhh…The 21st century and its linguistic loopholes. You gotta love it.

the next time i hear someone refer to it as "white" out, that’s it. i’m sueing. and don’t even THINK of calling it "caucasion" out. mm-m.

and "diet" coke? oh no, i won’t tolerate that any longer. why should i have to CONSTANTLY be berated for my extra poundage by my own soft drink? i’d say it’s gone on long enough. "alternative" coke, maybe. "selective caloric" coke, sure.

but the "diet" thing’s gonna stop now.

Comment on the Matrix Unplugged by Morithil

Sorry, but seeing as you’re discussing Revolutions I had to make a comment! Revolutions was a little of let down for me too; I didn’t mind the introduction of new characters, but it felt as if they didn’t have enough familiarity for me to be involved when they died/did something heroic.

minor spoilers-

…also, they turned Smith into a formulaic, comic book psychotic villain which I was NOT feeling. Plus the Architect (Col. Sanders lookalike of the year) randomly strolled in at the end as if to say "well, that was predictable". The CGI was good and there were a few nice set pieces like the Club Hell anti-gravity sequence, but Revolutions was ok as opposed to brilliant like the first movie….and to Amani; I salute you- Animatrix RULES.

Amani, haven’t seen the movie, but the idea of Pi is all over the Matrix. The whole bit in Reloaded where they have to open the door in 314 seconds is supposedly a reference to Pi. I’ll have t check out the movie Pi.

dxgarten, feel free to post here. As for the matrix within a matrix, or multiple matrices [matrixes?] connected together, yes, I still think it’s explainable in that light. There is too much control over events in the "real world" to leave out that explanation.
