Matrix Sequel Delayed to 2003

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the submitted-a-zillion-times dept.

moojin was among the countless slashdot readers who noted that scifi (No I am Sci-Fi dammit) has reported that the 'Matrix Reloaded' will be delayed until the summer 2003. I'm bummed, but I'm willing to wait to see the Brothers W do it right (no way I'm gonna try to spell that name ;)

  1. Did they ever film anything? by cnkeller · · Score: 5, Interesting
    Sorry if this was dicussed, but the site was already slashdotted.

    I lived in San Francisco last year and saw Keanu and Lawrence (just to name two) all the damn time in the city. Hanging out at the bars in Northbeach, at dinner South of Market, etc.

    My question is, why were these guys always in the city hanging out? Did they ever get any filming done? I'm kind of saying this tongue in cheek, but it's a valid question. I had always heard the Hollywood myth: actors work such long days, filming is hard work, blah blah. Lawrence didn't look very stressed; chilling out with his ever present sunglasses and a frosty beer...

    there are no stupid questions, but there are a lot of inquisitive idiots

  2. uh.. because it's a trilogy? by MemeRot · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Matrix isn't a standalone movie, with sequels being tacked on. It's the first in what was always planned to be a trilogy.

    Yes Dorothy, the Matrix was just the boring intro leading up to the real meat of the story. Worth the wait I'm sure.
