Matrix Reloaded Filming Wants to Shut Sydney Down

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the well-for-a-couple-days-anyway dept.

ro_len writes "News.com.au is reporting the producers of the Matrix Realoaded are looking to shut down Sydney for the filming of the final scene which involves flying a helicopter across the city at less than 600 feet above ground. It is supposed to be the most complicated sequence ever filmed." Just plain nuts. Here is a previous story about the trailer, and another one announcing the film.

    Yeah, sure it is. But only because of the hassle involved in shutting down a city.

    I am frankly prepared to be unimpressed with the sequels.

    You're so cute when you do that thing you do.

    You know all the geeks on here need the Matrix 2 because they're running out of Matrix 1 frames to jack off to.

    OK, so this isn't anywhere near as important as other things in life...

    ...but why would you post a story like this? Why not say "Matrix Reloaded Has Interesting Request Of Sydney" and put details AWAY FROM THE MAIN PAGE? I mean, I left the theater when I saw a trailer for Matrix 2 and 3 was coming...

    Ah geez.. at least we know now that the world didn't explode by the end of the movie, and in fact, someone is flying a helicopter.. Thank taco for ruining the ending.

    I personally detest sports.... I'd rather clear the streets and sit at home for a few hours

    I think I know somebody who could use some exercise and *sunlight*. Jesus christ man! Do you detest sports because you don't like the blatant exhibitionalism and testosterone-pumped muscles, or because your jealous that the guys on the field can actually walk without getting winded?
