Reply #16: Actually, 90% of Matrix and Reloaded look real. They did a darn good job: [View All]

Now look at other movies made in the last 4 years. "Bedazzled" (the crappy and uninspired 2000 remake of the 1967 UK classic) had pitiful effects; they didn't even try to make them look seamless!

While, on the small screen, it's easier to tell what looks superimposed and all, the first two Matrix movies (haven't seen #3) for the most part look exceptional and real in many cases.

I was blown away by the all-white Zion control center and the attention paid to detail with lighting, insertion of CGI fx, the lot. And if it looks real on the small screen where the eye can visualize everything at once, it's that much more real on the big screen because the eye has to see the picture, parts at a time, and can't digest all that's there.

I still want to know if Middle East countries ever saw the Matrix movies and if "Zion" was changed, what with 'Zionists' and all... O8)
