    Yes I recognize sigs much more often. I'd recognize names if they too were on the bottom of a person's comment.

    Perhaps this should be done?

    How about the ending? Neo stopped sentinels in "real life", meaning the real world ain't so real ;)

    Seriously, greatest movie ending ever...

    I agree, It had philosophical ideas interrupted by 15min effect fests that did little to enhance the story. I think nearly every fight was 3 times to long. If you watch the first film then the second you really notice how long and boring these over the top scenes have gotten.

    I'm sorry...

    "To be continued..."

    Greatest movie ending ever? How many movies have you actually *seen*? The matrix reloaded would have been much better had the directer/producer/editor/somebody with some sense ended it 30 seconds sooner. I can't express well enough my utter disdain for that ending. What are we, morons? We have to be fed that crap at the end? For all it's ups & downs, I enjoyed the movie...but seriously, that last 30 seconds just completely ruined it. They could have just cut it after Neo stopped the sentinals...or at least after showing him on the table.

    Everything after that was just explaining things for the *slow* members of the audience.

    It was "To be concluded..." in the theater I went too.

    But it was still horribly lame. And the on top of that they had to had the bad TV season finale sting.
