fr33kSh0w2012: IT isn't Gibberish I have 5% brain damage now stop being Nasty!

I'll report you for starting on a disabled person!

It's how I express myself!
At this point I really no longer care if you keep your brain in a brown paper bag. You're annoying, obnoxious, unpleasant and have been for years and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only person tired of how you "express yourself", and frankly I don't see why we should have to put up with it. You've used up whatever leeway your disability could buy you a long time ago.

I didn't really "get" the trailer. Have Neo and Trinity been put back in the Matrix and had their memories wiped?

You know as much as anyone. The trailer doesn't make it clear, and that's probably a good thing. Trailers that spoil everything suck.

Sounds rough. I know you told me you had issues, and you couldn't lift anything over 5lbs because of it.

I know we are both autistic, although to different levels, and over the last twenty years I've grown out of most of my more obvious autistic traits. Your situation, life and household sounds like it has been much much worse (and over 22 years); Yes that would grate on anyone over a long period of time. And I'm sorry i can't help you get in a better place. My own issues the last ~14 hasn't been easy either, though I'm in a better place now although my attention span is a bit shorter than it used to be.

But a word of advice? Being loud and annoying doesn't get your point across, it just makes people downvote to make your post disappear, not because they disagree or because they hate you or anything but I see a lot of posts that i just skip past because they don't really get to the point or are too unrelated to the thread in general.

There's a balance of how much you can say and how much you can rant or talk in caps before people just ignore you, and will ignore you as a whole. Best to distill your answers to concise and short replies, and don't be negative. If you disagree with something then disagree but as a sound argument, not as just a personal feeling. If it's feelings alone probably ignore it and let it pass by. In the end it doesn't really matter, there have been flame wars over programs and OSes and consoles and none of them lead to anything.

As a friend once loves to say 'Take what you want and leave the rest'

Oh believe me I do and I try to be as short an answer as can be but most people just rub me the wrong way I have people raving on at me here on the forum, I have my parent asking me impossible to answer questions and a sister screeching and making noises so irritating if you heard it you'd probably shoot her for some peace our household is so noisy in the past we had neighbours lodging complaints and I do not blame them, I'm almost perfectly deaf from my sisters demonic like outbursts and my parent chittering on with questions that have no answers for 22 years technically I still have the emotional maturity of a 16 year old and I am 38 and when people aggravate me it comes out as for me I never low rate because it's a scum thing to do I've asked GOG to fix it so you could hide posts without taking a hit but they don't give a s**t, Oh but they happily give out bans to me for when people have pushed me to the max

I have a parent that asks questions like a minigun fires and expects an answer just as fast
I have a sister that chants on and makes Irritating noises loudly just to annoy and believe me they do
I also have my health problems like:
A numb leg
A broken hip
IBS that is very painful
cysts in my kidneys
ulcers in my GI tract
bad eyesight
almost total deafness
Acquired traumatic brain injuries directly caused by assault
a severed nerve in my jaw which causes muscle spasms in my neck which are extremely excruciating
basically I'm full of pain and sick to death of it

Honestly if someone dropped a nuke on the planet and it killed everyone I wouldn't give a s**t because no more pain

Then I have smart alec's like breja full on attacking me on the forums saying that I'm annoying, obnoxious and unpleasant
Well tough Breja I say It's the only way I can communicate with others not just express myself.

Because as far as I'm concerned these people wailing on that I'm the biggest C in the universe and derep me for really no reason have had 0% problems in their lives.

I'm basically a walking cripple.

aren't we quick to low rate today, Breja You won't win, nice that you and your crew managed to derep me 6 points last night while I slept!

kai2: When you make art, you have to understand that the public may see other things in it -- sometimes things quite different to your intention.

That's art.

Setting out to make a political statement that "reverses" a valid reading?

To many that's propaganda.

I'll probably watch this new movie (and certainly hope they dropped the idea of "correcting" anything), but it just feels "hollow" at this point. The story felt done IMO.

We'll see.
I never even got around to watching Revolutions. The first I'd a classic but I think part of why it's classic is how the broader theme leaves a lot of room for interpretation.

When you make art you're thinking about something (maybe convoluted or maybe just the act of creating). If you've made anything of value it will give people something to think about. The artist can try and steer that thought process a certain direction( at what point that becomes propaganda is up for debate) but that's about it.

Truthfully I find the red pill/blue pill idea of choosing to wake up to reality no matter how unpleasant a lot more powerful and personally motivating then whatever the Wachowskis say it's about now. I like what I got out of it. They both might feel differently now about what it means to them vs when they made it. I'm not the exact same person I was two decades ago either. If they can't deal with people interpreting their art in ways they don't personally agree with though, I guess I've matured more though.

Revolutions was more or less a ticking of the clock to doomsday, before the machines come to kill everyone, before finally coming to the conclusion to stop Smith, Neo needs to make an all-or-nothing deal to save everyone.

As for the interpretations of red/blue pills... i don't know.

kai2: I don't expect much this time around.

The Wachowskis were disappointed that a reading of The Matrix was Right Wing political awakening (ie to "red pill"). In an interview, they insisted this was not their intention and they wanted to "correct" that.

So a sequel potentially starts life in order to "correct" a perfectly valid critical analysis of movies earlier in the series? Just seems too convoluted.

When you make art, you have to understand that the public may see other things in it -- sometimes things quite different to your intention.

That's art.
There is also a problem that the whole theme of The Matrix is rebelling against the mainstream. How can you turn the very essence of the movie into conforming to politically correct norms is beyond me.
Okay, apparently from WB Resurrections ignores the 2nd and 3rd films and instead continues from the first one.... twenty years later or something...

Which... makes no sense. The cliffhanger from the 1st movie was he was on the phone telling the computers he would 'show them a world without you' and was being superman flying around, and could manipulate things....

So... what happened now? They caught him and trinity and plugged them in the matrix wiped their memories? Morpheus dies and is replaced by a new one? They are hidden from the world? What?

I liked my original theory of memories bleeding more like they happened in the 2nd movie but with them not being part of trying to take anything down, the war hidden better than it was before. But this doesn't make sense.

rtcvb32: Okay, apparently from WB Resurrections ignores the 2nd and 3rd films and instead continues from the first one....
Wait. What? So their own multimillion dollar sequels that they seem to have had creative control over now aren't canon? That happens when like a crappy straight-to-video sequel with none of the original cast or crew is involved. Or when the studio owns the rights and takes it away from the creators. These were two extensively planned and marketed films from a major studio. The first film is still canon though so they're not doing a reboot. Is the Animatrix canon still (was it ever)? The games? This is too meta. Just like the Matrix I can't tell what's real anymore.

I am so confused now.

You're forgetting Highlander 2.

We've seen plenty of instances of them just doing whatever. Terminator doing reboots or movies that go from a certain point and then arching off to something else; just wish there was some naming convention that let you easily put them in order rather than having it confusing.

Meh, have to see. Lots of possible theories but until we get to it we're more or less just guessing.

rtcvb32: Seems everything from Hollywood has to be political virtue signalling... Do the same unwanted things and get the same result.

And yet they wonder why Manga is thriving and Comics are dying...
At the moment most of it is "virtue signalling"... or pushing one particular narrative. I miss the days when you would see the entire spectrum of "political thought" in the form. Having worked in Hollywood, ATM I no longer see a place for apolitical creators in this apparatus... unless you enjoy mindlessly making someone else's endless propaganda. Sad. When I first came to Hollywood, things were radically different and much more open to different perspectives and ideas (although there were no allusions... everything was based on: "what will sell?").

Again, I'm hoping this Matrix film might shake things up a little -- the Wachowskis certainly have the ability and leverage to do so (wild prior success, transgender, etc.) -- but I don't expect much. My gut says this is an installment to try and nullify earlier readings / analysis... akin to undermining a prior character due to an unwanted political context (how long will John Wick be allowed to be so masculine and authoritative?). But we'll see...

... maybe it will be amazing! Hope so
