hi bill, i'm in chilltown if you know what city has that nickname.'well, i was just rather bored with the fight scene'.
the ones up to that point were mundane but i thought this was where the movie was moving to another level. the way the agents were bounced around like balls off a bat was the first awesome scene to me.
video monitor scene. i would guess that he was showing the many false selves of neo with perhaps there being only one true self. the one that they focused in centrally. very interesting choice neo was given and he made the right choice.
i also wan't really tuned into what the guy was saying about how the matrix went through some revisions to cope with human nature.
the oracle scene: incidently wasn't red was the choice of the pill in the first movie to get them out of the matrix, so maybe what you are saying that it may have more relevance.... wasn't this candy shaped a little like a chromosone?
i thought it was a little contrite when she said 'i like candy'. trying to convey a zen message that the reason you should do what you do is to enjoy the moment.
but overall the scene was one where time almost stops still, and real life shows a glimpse.
Follow Ups:
I didn't notice any contrition from the Oracle on that park bench.And yes, they were little red pills, and no, Neo did not eat one.
The Oracle's "sweet tooth" was hardly the tritest moment in MR IMO. That honor would have to go to the Rave in Zion.
I agree about the rave/sex scene... I kept wondering when it would end. I did enjoy the movie overall... I thought it was fun, but not as deep as the first (to be expected).
