I'm going to wait at least a few days before seeing it. For once I want no spoilers for a movie.

I am going to have to wait another 18 hours before I can see it again. There are parts that I wasn't able to pay attention to (going on 2hrs sleep here), so I will *have* to see it again.

I was going to see this movie on monday with some friends. Then my friends flaked on me. Since then, many of people have seen the movie, and are just uber excited about it. So excited in fact, that my jealousy has already crusted over, and formed a thick, hard, bitterness :x

Crown,

At least tell me its good. These fucking movies cost me 10 bucks here in the city. I'm avoiding the initial crush (BAD BAD memories of what I went through with X2) and seeing it Monday around noon. I will be on vacation next week.

It's not out here in the Uk till the 25th. But i refuse to go see it on the princible that the movie was best left off the way it was. Some endings are best if they are left open and the viewer can sit and wonder what went on to happen etc.

Tonight I'm doing the "X-men 2" at 6:50, followed by "The Matrix" at 9:20 (re-run on the big screen) and then the midnight screening of "The Matrix Reloaded". So at about 3am AEST, I'll probably be on SDnet posting spoilers for y'all.

Ha, I even got to see Ep2 before the Americans. Tee-hee-hee.

Now, we get to see Reloaded before them. And then, we shall get RotK before them. Bwhahahahahaha! Yes! Yes! Finally something good about our nation!

Like I said, forget what you think you know. I think that will be sufficient to make you curious enough to want to find out more :mrgreen:

While most of the effects blew my mind, I wasn't too impressed with a couple as you could tell that they weren't Hugo or Keanu. Also X2's Nightcrawler sequence kicks ass over the 'twins' in Reloaded.

I'm not particularly hot to see it. The early reviews are all iffy, and constructing a genuinely good movie around the dullest possible sort of hero (the Invincible Godlike Man) seems a rather difficult task to me.

At 81 reviews, the Tomato Meter is currently at 78% (referring to generally positive reviews).

The first movie scored an 87% with 107 reviews.

I have got to admit there were parts where I felt the same, but on a whole it was handeled as well as could be expected (better even). Like I said forget what you think you know...

I'm afraid it will be like Spiderman and have CGI scenes that are obviously CGI.
