I dunno, I give Reloaded more credit than most (Revolutions just failed to deliver on any of the landings). I see it as a final celebration of humanity in the face of almost certain extinction. Went on a bit too long but the concept was sound.

I always thought with Reloaded that a miss opportunity was them doing a spin off of other versions of the Matrix.

When they bring it up in that movie and how there were versions with legendary monsters and ghost in them.

Quite a few had tie ins to music videos and dancing in the movies.

"Missed Opportunities" should be the tag line for any discussion of the Wachowskis and the Matrix.

You're being harsh on the Wachowskis in my opinion. Matrix 1 is a masterpiece, 2 was pretty good and 3 was... uh. They also did Speed Racer which I really like too.

And they made Cloud Atlas, another greatly underrated masterpiece!



I would say Sense8 was very solid too. They are not your average Hollywood yes man.

Still connected.

I haven't watched that live action Aladdin movie, so I don't know if those are scenes from it or a music video tie ins.

Cloud Atlas benefitted from a strong book as a source. I think their decision to use prosthetics was a bad call though, made it laughable even if they did a good job working the story.

Yeah I know it's adapted from a book (supposedly unadaptable), and yet they translated it perfectly which is insane in itself. For the make-up while I agree to some degree, it never took me away from the movie. I think the story is beautiful and the OST is "chef kiss". Not to mention the stellar cast.

I love this movie ^^.
