PedroX Posted November 8, 2003 Share Posted November 8, 2003 The Wachowski brothers most certainly are not Catholic, at least not in anything coming close to Orthodoxy. This trilogy has so many religious allusion and metaphors I just want to scream at the directors to stop. Really, they spend 2 hours forcefeeding you zen principles wrapped up and decorated with Christian, cultic and ancient paganism that its too much. I think is a very pretty movie, but I hate having somebody's world view shoved down my throat. Whew! Sorry for ranting. Please return to your regularly scheduled post. peace...

M.SIGGA Posted November 9, 2003 Author Share Posted November 9, 2003 I just got back from seeing Matrix Revolutions and it was amesome - people even clapped in the theatre! Doesn't add up to the first but done in better taste and much more enjoyable than the second. It was definitly full of Christian undertones, but in a good way I loved it and I encourage everyone to go and see it!!! Plus there was a woman-soldier in Zion who was saying what looked like the Rosary before going to battle - my girlfriend pointed that out so don't reply if she was really doing something else with that string of beads. God Bless :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vectoris Lux Lucis! Posted November 11, 2003 Share Posted November 11, 2003 I feel that the movie is great to go and see. Sure there are some questionable scenes, but as an adult, you can reason yourself through those. The movie has huge spiritual messages for us. Undying faith, belief in the face of unbelief, courageous adherance to beliefs, sacrifice, love, and many others. Take your Catholic mind into this movie, and I think you'll come out pelasantly- pleased (my own term). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
