"Has this aged well?" That shit came out the same year as Phantom Menace and Wild Wild West, so... yeah... The Mummy and this are the clear timeless masterpieces of 1999.

[@stefanfilipovits21]

99 was a REALLY good year for movies. Phantom menace and WWW notwithstanding of course.

[@seanthebluesheep]

It could be argued that Phantom Menace actually has aged well. Instead of focusing on the annoying shitball kid, awkward terrible writing and the racist accented aliens, people are now all about the weird political allegory and random lines that imply loads of world building because they're so out there. Also for 1999 a lot of the effects still hold up, legs visible under a hovercar notwithstanding.

[@anubusx]

The Blair Witch Project and Fight Club.

[@HyraxusPrimus]

I think Phantom Menace still holds up really well. It still used a lot of practical effects and miniatures, and (in my humble opinion) it still has the feeling of an actual Star Wars movie, unlike most of the recent ones. There are also some interesting elements of the story and characters that I didn't notice until I actually rewatched it with adult eyes. I'd say give it another chance, you might be surprised by it.

[@SchulzEricT]

@@HyraxusPrimus I mean, it's a terrible movie with terrible characters and a nonsense story that doesn't make sense as part of the overall Star Wars universe but is also bad as part of a trilogy or even just as a standalone story, but I'm sure the special effects were fine.

Yeah. The audience still has issues understanding the heat battery bit but had already been exposed to human brains being used as computer processing through star trek the motion picture (1979) and TOS star trek. Not to mention Isaac isamov work referencing it. With human brains being used as enslaved computers going back to the 50s...

[@damenwhelan3236]

I was in film school right after this came out (2002) and the bullet time scene is incredibly influential in film history because if was one of the key scenes that proved the concept that computers could be used in camera effects to be more than just making digital shapes and Animations. My roommate, who now works in VR, was obsessed with it and we spent a LOT of time talking about it. It was a huge deal at the time and is one of the things that led to things like image stabilization being standard, facial tracking for apps and effects, and many things we use every day.

I remember the first time I saw The Matrix - the only thing I knew before watching it is some people around school talking about it as a 'this movie about hackers' (in hindsight they obviously had not seen it at the time). So I started watching it with that mindset - 'a cool movie about hackers'... First couple of minutes - confirmation, hackers doing hackety things. Then some scenes where obviously reality mixes with dreams, and there's probably more tech and science-fiction to it - all right. At the point where Neo was extracted from the big ol' charger and literally picked up by an oversize arcade machine claw, I had my jaw firmly on the floor with utter bewilderment - and it stayed there until the end of the movie.

"Why couldn't they just tell Neo it was all a computer simulation?" They could, but what good would that make? Even if he believed them, where to go from there? He would never fully appreciate the implications unless he experienced the reality of it himself. Also, from a storytelling perspective, Neo is the audience's PoV character. It's important that things are *shown* to him, not just told, so that they're also shown to the audience - who, let's be honest, includes a fair amount of people who would have never understood the Matrix otherwise.

[@BevansDesign]

I remember having to explain the concept of alternate timelines and multiverses to someone just 10 or so years ago, to a person who's smart but not sci-fi savvy.

Matrix did pioneer bullet time. Before that, there was dead time. Which is for example where at the beginning of the matrix trinity jumps in the air and it’s frozen as the camera pans around her. That’s the time. However bullet time was capturing at 500 frames a second over many cameras to actually have motion rather than it being a single frozen moment of time it’s slow motion. I just figured I’d mention that as prior to the matrix Dead time was highly overused on movies like lost in space and various other films, but the matrix introduced bullet time which really changed everything!… And then everyone copied it and we came in over you just give me as well ha ha… Great video guys!

Glad you guys are back. Hope you’re time off was nice. We missed these

Fun fact: Australian music icon Michael Hutchence of INXS was cast as a full time cast member, acting as a ally to Neo. This was partly due to the movie being shot in Sydney. Hutchence was also in talks to play a role in a Quentin Tarantino film, along with a Robert De Niro film. However, after his death in 1997, all roles were removed. RIP

Saw this opening day in Brooklyn in the theater and there were only like five people in the audience with me. We all had LOW expectations - the trailers weren’t great- and we just wanted to see a sci-fi movie matinee. Our minds were BLOWN. After the movie we all gathered in the lobby and started geeking out about the film. We were strangers then, but some of us are still friends. I called all my friends (no real internet or texting then) and begged them to see the Matrix. I also got to see the film months later when it opening in Rotterdam - another amazing experience. But that… is another story.

That’s awesome! Are you planning a reunion for part 4?

[@dsillsevans]

@@mrsundaymovies that’s a great idea! We don’t all live in the same city any more, but some of us might be able to do it.

Nice!

I thoroughly enjoyed Enter the Matrix. I played the hell out of it on 360 or PS2 or whatever it was on.

I can't even imagine a cyber criminal/ terrorist Sean Connery training computer hacker and nerd Will Smith into becoming Kung Fu kicking, bullet blocking Cyber Jesus.

Have to agree with you gents, I graduated high school in 99. So it hit me perfectly at the right time. However, there is no denying this first one in particular is a real mind bender!

[@lukenukem1164]

I was lucky enough not to have heard anything about this film before I went to see it. It remain my favourite cinema experience to this day and there's been a few!!

Defiantly aged well ... there are a few odd effects but overall still great. I'm 49 and was telling a young lad (20) at work that the Matrix was now on Netflix's .... he was "What's that?" ... honestly he didn't even know of the Movie. So based on my high praise he watched at the weekend and on Monday wouldn't stop going on about it! So even people who were not born when this was released can enjoy it today!

The thumbnail got a Neo-esque "whoa" out of me. Now I understand the point of going with that image.

[@werideatdusk]

KUDOS to including Grant Morrison in this!!! He brought together so many great ideas, one of the truly great creators of the last 50 years!!!

There are some key fight scene moments are DIRECTLY pulled from Jet Li-starrer "Fist of Legend."

They talk about Matrix, but I got two McDonald's adds for spring beef burger whilst watching it. So my question is: is this all a huge conspiracy?
