So, I got my tickets on Wednesday for Matrix: Reloaded as I anticipated a long line for the 7pm show. I got to the theater at 5:45pm where I waited in a line with...NO ONE! No one even showed up for it until 6:30, except for me of course, because apparently I'm an idiot! Oh well.
I liked the first one better and really could have done without the scene of the slo-mo techno orgy inter-cut with Carrie Anne Moss's "O" face. I also could have done without the fight scene remeniscent of the Three Stooges. They have a new gimmick as far as special effects are concerned in this one that was kind of cool the first time but was just dumb by the 3rd time. The best scene is the highway scene for sure and if you thought the first Fellowship of the Rings movie had an unsatisfactory ending, you are NOT going to like this one!
Saw the preview for T3. Can't tell if it's going to be good or not but there sure are a lot of good looking people in it. I'm sure I'll probably wait in another line of 1 when that opens July 2nd.
If you haven't seen it, I recommend X2. It was funnerer than Matrix 2.

Hack Attack!
Well if mike's not going to use this perfectly good blog, I will! My computer's still in the shop and I have so much to blog about! I'll keep it to one topic for now.
A friend from loooooong ago (llike over 10 years ago) is playing in Jeopardy's tournament of Champions. If you watch tomorrow or Friday, he's Brian. I met him online when I used to use Compuserve, before there was IRC and chat rooms and such. It's a riot to see him after all this time. He was always rather quiet so to see him playing the game so aggressively is a little strange and MAN does he know really trivial things! Guess that's why he's playing in the tournament of champions huh?
OK, I really should be studying for my final.
Will hack in again soon! Maybe with a Matrix Reloaded review after I see it tomorrow night.
