[color=gray]I saw it twice this weekend. [spoiler]This movie was [i]amazing[/i]. It was eloquent, beautiful, powerful, lovely, bitter, sour. It was everything I thought it was going to be, everything I wanted and more; yet, at the same time, it wasn't. I think the reason why many?like my dad?didn't like this movie as much as the first was simply because of how deep some of things were. How hard they were to figure out. But that's storytelling, writing, producing, and everything else at its best. To just tell the story, keep rolling, whether you fully tell the reader/ listener what it means. That I love about this movie. How things are so allegorical, yet, at the same time, by just looking at it on the outside and not scratching the movie's surface at all, you can still love it and still know that yeah, there's something great behind this. That yeah, you need to figure out what it is. Even I don't completely understand some things, and, accordingly, I've assumed some things. But I think I understood it very well. This movie was a great ride. It was bumpy in some parts, though. Especially the whole scene where Morpheus, like some religious fanatic leader, addressed Zion. Their reaction was pretty lame. Celebration over their impending doom? It just didn't fit. Especially the semi-sex scene with Neo and Trinity. That didn't work at all. That's not what love's all about. It's part of what love is?but that's more lust than love. Perhaps that is a part of love, but, to me, it just didn't fit. That part felt like some corny porno scene from a different movie. The music was like a porno. The celebrating Zionians were like some big, lustful orgy. Didn't fit at all. I think the scene itself was just too long. I think if it wouldn't have been so overdone then I would've liked that part better. That's perhaps the only scene that I couldn't stand in this movie. It just didn't fit at all. Didn't make any sense, had nothing, not a damned reason to warrant it. Otherwise, I thought everything else was extremely well done. Especially the fight scenes. The one where Neo was against all of the Smiths was probably especially my favorite. It was done so well. And the freeway scene as well. Some of you've said that they overdid the fighting scenes. I don't think they did at all. It's like a video game? Well, of course. The Matrix isn't real. Neo and the Smiths can defy its rules, go against it. It's supposed to be like that. Okay. I think I'm going to set some things straight. Firstly, you'll remember Agent Smith infecting, I think, two people near the beginning. They were carrying a package?from the oracle telling Neo to meet her. It was that chip that Neo was handed. One of the men left the Matrix, and the other stayed. Smith then appeared, and approached the remaining person He copied that one into himself. The newly copied Smith then picked up the ringing phone. Then the Smith entered out of the Matrix. That was who that one guy that was really cold was. The one that was slitting his hand as Neo was leaving to go in his ship. That was also the survivor they'd found from the destroyed ship that was destroyed by the sentinels. Right at the end, remember? He was lying right next to the passed out Neo. Another thing. How can Smith copy himself? Well, you'll remember, in the first Matrix, that Neo jumped into Smith, and blew him up. Somehow he survived this, just didn't want to be gone. Didn't want to be deleted. So he came back with a piece of Neo's powers or something. He isn't an agent for the Matrix anymore, and he can clone himself. That's how that part works. That's why there's all those Smiths that fight Neo in the fighting scene I mentioned. Those two ghost-like brothers that could turn clear and go through things, those were old programs of the Matrix. Just like the key maker, the oracle, and all those people. They're old programs that the Matrix didn't need to have around anymore?that did more bad than good. So many of them were deleted, but some went into hiding. Like the frenchman that liked to swear, and everyone else I just mentioned. That's where they came from. That makes this movie even more amazing. You don't know who to trust. The oracle's just a program. The key maker's just a program. The architect's just a program perhaps. You don't know who to trust in this movie. You don't know if what Neo's doing is right?following the orders of The Oracle. You just don't know. Another thing that was amazing. The whole realization that everything that happens is meant to happen. There's no mistakes. No crashes. No nothing. It's all meant to happen. Morpheus points this out. So does the frenchman, with his cause and effect thing. And mainly, so does the oracle. And you don't know if you should believe this. And the architect. Wow. He was especially hard to follow in this movie. He talked like some prudent Einstein or something lol. Mainly what I got from him was that Neo's not the only "one" there's ever been. He said there've been five or so before Neo. He also said that each of these one's had to choose two things. Had to make choices. Then when The Matrix was destroyed, these ones would choose new people to settle Zion, and continue everything over again. He also said that this was the fifth or so time that Zion itself was being destroyed. He also pointed out that there've been many many versions of the Matrix. The first, he said, being perfect. But humans aren't perfect he also pointed out. So perfection never happened. So these other older versions of The Matrix were destroyed. The architect then presented Neo with two doors?choices. He told Neo the door to one side was directly to Zion, where Neo could try and stop the machines. He said that if Neo didn't choose this door, then when Zion would fall, then every human also hooked up to The Matrix would be instantly killed. I think that's what he said, not exactly certain, but it was close to that. The other, of course, led to Trinity. Now, going along with the entire meaning of this movie. The movie's meaning said that everything had and has a purpose. From the frenchman to the oracle to the architect to Smith. All of these things had meaning, purpose. That's why they're there where they are when they were. It was all predetermined, according to this movie. So Neo had, subconsciously albeit, chosen that door to Trinity all the way along. He hadn't chose it though, really. The choice was predetermined, it was already picked. As the architect said, choice is only an illusion. The architect also mentioned that he could feel Neo's response. That he could feel his emotions blocking the logical response, which was to go to the door to Zion, and save the human race. Love was blocking the logical choice. That, he said, is what makes humans so weak. And as Neo walked over to the door, you'll remember him saying that she's going to die anyways. And that hope is what makes humans so strong yet so weak. And then everything went on from there. Possibly the most confusing part of this movie was at the end, when they exited the ship as it was destroyed. Neo used his powers outside of The Matrix. The only thing I can assume is there's multiple levels to The Matrix. Either that, or somehow else Neo's able to use his powers outside of The Matrix. I believe that it having multiple layers is probably the best assumption. Seeing as how the architect said that Zion had been destroyed over and over again, systematically. That tells me that this assumption's a possibility. Considering that the machines could've easily destroyed Zion when they wanted to and that it's happened so many times before. It tells me that that perhaps itself is an illusion to some other layer of the matrix or something. That's only an assumption, though. And as James mentioned, the mother of The Matrix was pointed out to be The Oracle. But I'm not exactly certain if that's true. The architect denied it, James. I'm pretty sure it's true though. Near the end I do have to admit that that's when the best parts of this movie happened. Especially how unanswered so many things were. From Neo's use of his powers outside of The Matrix, to the downfall of Morpheus's prophecy, to Neo lying right beside the Smith that'd possessed that one person. It leaves a lot of how's and what's going to happen. I believe that the next movie's going to be even better, with lots of very surprising realizations about the matrix's history and other such things. All I can say is this movie completely blew me away with all of its deepness. Gets me thinking about things myself, how things are in my life. From how emotions are what seem to give us purpose and are what rule our lives. To that everything that happens is meant to happen as destiny. How that everything is so human, even the machines. Even Neo. How the machines are what give life and at the same time take it away, just like humans. There's just so many messages from this movie that get me thinking and wondering. And that's what I like from a movie. I like it to convey and weigh in on me for a long time after I've watched it. At the end of this movie, I don't know who to trust anymore. That itself is amazing. Because usually there's a character you wholly side with. Perhaps that is Neo in this case, but it's hard to say. Neo's still so human. You know that from the beginning all the way to the end. And your mind screams that you should be on Neo's side. But at the same time, you can't believe that things've gone where they have at the end. How Neo seemed so blind by his emotions and by the power and control of the characters he'd met throughout the story. But that in itself, that thought in itself is contradicting the entire meaning of this movie. Well, the one meaning that's mostly put out. That everything has a purpose and a destiny and that everything's already set out to be what it's to be. Thinking that it's wrong the way things've gone fro Neo, how he took and did everything that he was told leaves a bitter taste in my mouth. But at the same time you know that it was all meant to be. Or so Morpheus said. And the frenchman said. And the oracle said. You don't know who to trust. You don't know if it's true that everything is destined. I personally don't really believe that, but this point of destiny was so beaten in this movie that you kind of end up having to believe it to understand and give some reason to why things are like they are at the end of the movie. The characters are so mysterious and uncertain as well as imperfect. It really makes them seem like real characters. Perhaps that's why it's so hard to trust them, because they're all just so human. There's not one that really stands out over the other in the respect of believing them. Other than Neo, of course. He's been the hero-like character from the beginning of the first movie. But there's just no one you know for certain to trust. It's that feeling of uncertainty, of unknowing where things are going to go that make this movie so great and that makes waiting for the next movie even that much more harder.

[font=century gothic][size=1][color=gray] I won't be getting it. I don't have the money, and Final Fantasy as an online game has always seemed bad in my mind. I'm a classic gamer. I like RPGs the way they're meant to be.[/size][/font][/color]

[size=1][font=gothic][color=gray]Achilles took his last stand The green the sand For the heavens and the Earth This quiet place this floating city Of the heavens and the Earth There was a silent moment when they told us so I turned to you smiling, my face quiet. "How can we say no?" These arms these feet these bones Those who claim they know But the devil's in his hole To the south and to the east The pieces on the ground And to sail away To laugh so loud To die and never be found The sweet refrain Wondering and wondering One place to rest my head The heavens from the Earth For the mighty arms of Achilles' hands For the mighty death of this land I'm going to rain For the mighty death of this land For the mighty arms of Achilles' hands For the heavens of the Earth The ethereal and beatific hurt I'm gonna rain Achilles took his last stand His arms his hands This green Earth this land For us for me For you for thee Achilles took his last stand It's going to rain Going to rain Like stars and love Gonna rain As I turned to you you turned to me All we said and all that's done Gonna rain When the mighty arms of Achilles hold Of the heavens and the Earth This city flying in twilight's birth Achilles' last stand What fun can be had Live those dreams The ones we've always had And as you turn to me and touch me so All I can say is, "How can we say no?"[/size][/font][/color]

[size=1][font=century gothic][color=gray]I give it a [strike]Z[/strike]/1o. Heh. I like it. Blue's pretty much my favotire color, and the whole thing is very sleek. I like the color of the text, it works well. And the image, the eyes, it works. Has that coming together feeling for me.[/size][/font][/color]

[size=1][font=alfa][color=gray] Yeah. It definitely would be better with a lighter background. Lighter blue. Other than that, it's actually not too bad.[/size][/font][/color]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by James [/i] [B][color=#808080] I'll give you two examples of pet peeves. lol First is the word "often". I notice that people frequently say [b]off-ten[/b]. But that's not correct. The 't' is silent. [b]Off-en[/b]. The other would be the phrase "I could care less about that". So, if I were Cloricus, I might say: "I could care less about Howard being the Prime Minister" When actually, it should be "I [b]couldn't[/b] care less about Howard being the Prime Minister" [/color] [/B][/QUOTE] [size=1][font=laha][color=gray] Heh. I've done and do do those things sometimes. Like in my column that I posted, I had said that I didn't know the jock's name, and I could care less. lol. I changed that, though. I also say often with the t, but I'll have to get myself to not do that. Bleh.[/size][/font][/color]

[size=1][font=rockwell] Abstract stuff is what I love, so this hits the bag hard in that. I like it. Except for the tail, but Ginny's already covered me there. Otherwise, if you'd fix that, it'd be near perfect in my opinion. It could use some more symbols and objects in it perhaps..the background is kind of boring. Except for that hidden sun. Otherwise I like it.[/size][/font]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Dan L [/i] [B]Mitch, I didn't think empathy allowed you to control people's emotions. Heh.. maybe I was wrong on that.. heh [/B][/QUOTE] [size=1][font=rockwell][b]empathy[/b] [n] : understanding and entering into another's feelings. It isn't really, it's simply understand their feelings...but I felt like quoting him. I'm just that way. ^.^[/font][/size]

[size=1][font=rockwell] Shy you never cease to make me laugh. ^_^" Yeah, ethereal basically means from heaven. Or from something holy. As does beatific..heh. *notices Dan's name change* I miss the God that came from the machine already...*sob* I really don't have too many words that just leave me standing when I try to say them. But I've said pious wrong before...said it like pie. O.o'..or maybe it was the other way around. I'm not sure..but I said it wrong when I was being Creon when we were reading Antigone in English. Heh. Antigone. I still can't get over how it should be pronounced like what it looks like. But no, it has to be Antigoneee..or whatever. Bleh. I'll think of more as they come to me.[/size][/font]

[size=1][font=rockwell] Well, I personally [i]wouldn't hate them unless I became otherwise noting of them[/i]. That's to say, if they're some maniac, some jerk, and use their powers in a way I see wrong, then I'd definitely hate then. As for in general. Look at other peoples' responses to religion, race, color, all that good stuff. This is like another thing tacked on, if you think about it. Another thing that people can hate you for. You get condemned for believing in what you want, believing in yourself, being yourself, and living for yourself in this world. With mutants it'd be just that much more worse. It'd be another leash that's placed on you. Another thing like being black instead of white. We're still sitting here, forty years later, even more years than than that later than I can count, and we're still [i]so conformed and racial and prejudice[/i]. So with mutants, it'd be the same thing. Another thing for people to hate and love and be split on. Another way to stereotype someone, give them a label they never ever [i]ever[/i] deserve. Especially seeing as it's something that someone cannot control. It's genetical. Hereditary. So that's the next step in society. Getting genetics down to a science, a prejudice. Won't happen in my life time, and thank god. I kind of rambled, but mainly, there'd be a lot more hate and love and splits and fights in this world with mutants. But [i]eventually[/i]--eventually being quite a long time--we'd get over this.[/size][/font]

He was hallucinating he was in his school, that he was in the gym at first, as you saw. But by the end, he'd realized he wasn't. And the reason he was put in jail was because he killed Virginia, Wess, and those other two people. He blocked out when he killed them, he was also hallucinating as it happened. So he just blocked it all out as people do with things. But he did kill them. You'll remember he'd see them on the ground after remembering something, or going through a flash in his mind. That was him blocking it out. That's how I see this thing. But you can see it however you want.[/spoiler] That's very rough, mind you. I could cover so many things on this story. It's so deep.

[size=1][font=rockwell] My Mom's really moody. I guess that's where I get my constant depression from, I don't know. All I know is she's depressed a lot, and very erratic in her moods. One day she'll be happy, yelling, screaming; and, the next, she'll be dead and depressed, not saying a thing. And then, yet some other days, she's angry. She screams at you for everything, nit picks about small things. Yells at you if you just try to talk to her. She's my Mom, yeah, that's for sure. That's the only way I can really put it. She's quitting smoking, which is very good. But she worries me, she takes so many drugs for medication. I'm sure she's addicted to those. Her sleep patterns are also pretty bad, too. She doesn't sleep well, and when she does sleep, it's usually late at night. And when she does sleep, she sleeps a lot. She also goes out with people that are about ten or so years younger than her. That's fine, I guess. But it does bother me. Wouldn't it be better to hang out with me? She comes home drunk sometimes, but not that often that it's something that bothers me. But I hate to see people drunk. It just [i]hurts[/i]. My Dad's a completely different story, heh. I love them both, though.[/size][/font]

get home To pass this nothing in my room alone When you're cold You're cold This door creaks The floor says old I open the door I put my books on the desk Watch as I fall dead Watch as I twitter and ding Wait for the time Try to see My books fall dead Is it worth it Around bend after bend To say as I could That I'm good enough My books fall dead I sigh and sigh As I say Wonder what these books Would ever lay Ever wonder Ever say All these days in this door Locked in this room In a desk just tapping the floor Something on the board Something telling me What's life what's in store My books fall dead everyday The teacher speaks But I drift away I wonder Wonder here today Wonder if I've learned enough If I can ever say These markers and pencils Paper that's blank but for me Writing on it and you just feel Markers and pencils They're real Whatever's real should say something Maybe to you I wrote on this paper With pencil and marker It's black as charcoal Smudged or thin But to me My

his name I walked in his room Around bend after bend I set my books down They fell dead Took off my headphones And walked away Talked to my friend Ryan It's what I always do We don't say much But he's one of the few friends I've got So it's good to have one And just good to talk We don't talk long Only got seven minutes Then it's gone And you know You wait so long Wait for the day To end and be through Then it starts all over And you know When you're cold You're cold The floor creaks It says old All you've got in the end Doesn't matter As long as I can lay down My tired head Lay down my dead books It doesn't matter Least you've got those you know You've got music and it all goes Least you've got those you know Love 'em think about them alone At least you've got those you know Like breathing It all goes [b][u]Dance In The Sea[/b][/u] Step-by-step you dance in the sea Fire and love it goes in rives You let it be In the arms of the sea It goes to the river It lands in and you fish Step-by-step you dance in the sea But it all goes to the river You soon see Over the mountains The seagulls sing They sing how it's To know me Something about A step-by-step dance in the sea Something rhythmic and free Step-by-step this dance in the sea The water's up to my knees Can't even let go Can't stop and even see Over the mountains I heard her voice Something about me To know me Something about how The seagulls sing A 'gull's something I've rarely even seen It's a bird that's certain in being Like this step-by-step dance in the sea That's about all I know Nothing else hits me Even as far as rivers veer They still end up here As the 'gulls hark And sing They're still over here Doing this two-step dance In the sea Those mountains Over there They're evergreen She's like a summer rose Can't even dance But she can leave Like fall's wind She Breathes Hits me On those mountains I should also say There's so many trees Raccoons and squirrels That's all I've ever seen On these trees And when I'm doing My two-step dance In the sea Acorns are golden Like corn in the breeze I can see it As I gaze and be Over on those mountains Away from the sea It's evergreen Like maple syrup That's old And green Beautiful Green so The 'gulls They always sing She's evergreen Like clouds That're squalls It never rains She's evergreen But I'm still here all alone This two-step dance in the sea She's talking to me Like a rose in the summer We always have to leave Though Sad it is to me But that's what it's like On this sea I ride the wind As I dance the sea Tell her I love her Give her a kiss We leave as the bee stings If one 'gull should sing It's got to be her She's evergreen We always have to leave Though Leave this salty sweet sea Leave the 'gulls that sing Leave everything and all that's green But that's what it's like On this sea It's evergreen As you two-step On the sea It never lasts Time's ream At least I can say As it's evergreen And the acorns Are gold like corn In the breeze At least I can say It's worth it And that Forever is green[/size][/center] [center][size=1][b][u]Happy Birthday Shy[/b][/u] creature in the sky should know ya la la la but why name's something shy were

my mind My books fall dead I can't wait until I get home To pass this nothing in my room alone When you're cold You're cold This door creaks The floor says old I open the door I put my books on the desk Watch as I fall dead Watch as I twitter and ding Wait for the time Try to see My books fall dead Is it worth it Around bend after bend To say as I could That I'm good enough My books fall dead I sigh and sigh As I say Wonder what these books Would ever lay Ever wonder Ever say All these days in this door Locked in this room In a desk just tapping the floor Something on the board Something telling me What's life what's in store My books fall dead everyday The teacher speaks But I drift away I wonder Wonder here today Wonder if I've learned enough If I can ever say These markers and pencils Paper that's blank but for me Writing on it and you just feel Markers and pencils They're real Whatever's real should say something Maybe to you I wrote on this paper With pencil and marker It's black as charcoal Smudged or thin But to me My books fall dead everyday I tilt my head down As I breathe Murmur my way and Cease It's black as charcoal Maybe to you Smudged or thin Doesn't matter All that matters That's on this paper Is the numbers Today I put my head down That's on this paper I don't care about the numbers Doesn't matter Smudged or thin These lines They're not the same They're close and in Around bend after bend You wonder and say Want to know if it's been Or if it's ever going to say Think to yourself It's worth it For today Today My books fell dead Walked in that room Put down my tired head Was dark for once The movie was playing Was about tornadoes About disasters and end But I put down My tired head Put on some headphones Led Zeppelin buzzed instead Instead of the movie That was playing in my head Closed my eyes Let the music think for me It's like I'm dead Was listening to Achilles Last Stand The lyrics're still thinking in my head And it's about nothing It's like I'm dead The teacher was tardy She's sick or something I can't say for sure So we watched that movie About disasters and end But I put on my headphones Led Zeppelin buzzed instead And I put down my tired head Thought to myself Wondered if I'm anything I listened to the Zeppelin CD all the way Almost fell asleep just thinking away And as I changed the CD Put in Tool's Lateralus and let it play I did fall asleep As The Patient played I wasn't asleep long The Patient was still playing Buzzing in my ear When the bell came I woke up I'm still tired Sick of this same But I went up to math Got a good teacher Mr. Riehl's his name I walked in his room Around bend after bend I set my books down They fell dead Took off my headphones And walked away Talked to my friend Ryan It's

[size=1][font=rockwell] You know what I find funny? That repetition makes the character more realistic. You can tell by reading it he's insane, lol. Yeah. I think I'm going to rework this when I get some time. Think of a better ending. Thanks for posting, Jeh. I think it's the size of it, too, that's putting people off. But really, once it starts rolling it isn't too long, is it? I hope not. Oo.[/size][/font]

I already know that. I wasn't stressing a damned thing, and it isn't your place to sit here and condone on this event. If you hate this event so much, then why are you posting in here, and why is there a link in your sig? Quite ironic, I think. Eh. Anwyays, I'm not going to fight with you or anything. I just don't see why you had to hark on my post, and Mac's. It's an obvious fact that because of the way some people may sway to vote that mods/whatever/whenever cannot post in here. The thing is, I know there's a way around this little crux. Ah well. Perhaps in the future there'll be a writing event I can actually join. Good day dear Chaos.[/size][/font]
