... who's going to have the next hissy fit or fork off a new branch because their not allowed CVS access or any responsibilty due to the arrogance and narcissistic self importance or certain people involved in the project?
I still think it's all just a little *too* convenient, but at least it makes sense of what appears (on the surface), to be a shallow and pointless film.
I'm sure this will grow on me over time, but I still expected more from the Wachowskis...

I wrote web sites in rural north-west England in 1996 - made $600 profit in my first year.
By the time we started making money I was bored.
Then I started writing low cost/level e-commerce software when no one in rural England believed it was safe to transact on the Net. I made a little, but grew restless before it peaked.
And now? Is it worth the risk in revealing the next big trend before it hits? Nah:)
I am so aware of that lovely graph they show explaining how business trends develop, peak and fade. Trouble is, it's SO DULL.
I'm engrossed in HTTP at the moment writing a proxy server with HTTP::Proxy in Perl that appends authentication headers to requests from specific IPs that have specific cookies set so that I can log into all sites I visit that use basic authentication without having to remember my damn logins and passwords all the time.
Next step will be to combine with WWW::Mechanize module (probably) to automate logins to other sites that use standard forms for login.
Understanding HTTP is crucial if you're trying to do shit like that.

OK, i saw it with a colleague. We disagree - he liked it better than Reloaded. But anyway, my gripes:

CGI was too much sometimes. The scenes went from nothing to kamikaze, with no clear focal point on the screen.
The bit from the trailer with the head honcho machine. WTF was that? So it's a machine - does it mean it can't hold a conversation?
Agent Smith explodes at the end WTWTWTF? If Neo was corrupting him, then why all the crap with the fight scene before hand?
No key scene to define the film (think Burly Brawl/Freeway).
Oh, and the plot seemed extremely shallow compared to the last one - I was looking forward to some more in depth (or at least pop
Why was Smith such a threat? The machines didn't look that bothered. Why was it left to Neo to fix?
Ack, I could go on, but I think I should go see it sober first
