Ultimate Matrix???

I wondered when it was coming and I saw it today for just 3 easy payments of 19.99. It comes as a 10 disc set. You get all three Matix films all newly re-digitally mastered, all three Matirx films Revisited, the matirix revisited, a disc of phisophers, robtics engineers, film critics all making comments on the films, the Animatrix and a disc of how the stunts were made and one other disc of inane crap.

Now I'd be impressed if they did some extensive re-editing on the second and third film. Comentary by 80 'experts' though, who would wasted their time with this... IT'S A MOVIE. IF YOU WANT TO LEARN ABOUT IF YOU REALLY EXIST TAKE A COURSE IN PHILOSOPHY. Sorry, after seeing the first movie people started considering themselves philosophers because they got a movie ticket for $6.00. Now I too have been subject to talking about where the matrix will go next before the 2nd and 3rd films came out and how the brothers could have done it better after I saw them. This was idle talk with friends though, but I did see some pretty heated arguments happen OVER A MOVIE!!! My point is this is less about artistic vision and more about cashing in on people who use the movies as a point of reference in their life. Let's also pull out documentaries on The Ten Commandments, Gone with the Wind, and the amazing special effects in Godzilla.

Granted this is a market economy so if you can sell it you have every right to... More power to movie makers if they can cash in on people. I just wish people wouldn't go for this, so movie makers could expend their energies in making new good movies. (Take a lesson Lucas)

Got flashed yesterday

As I was leaving work, concerned about my up coming test in Economics I saw a familar white car start tailing me, when i say the third head light outside the driver's window I figured I was about to be busted for something... 30 seconds later lights flip on and I hit the gas and try to out run him and live out my Dukes of Hazzard fantasy. Or maybe I just pulled over.

"Do you know why I pulled you over"

Short pause...I looked in his eyes and said"Actually, no." (my plate tags are expired)

"Your plate tags are expired, sir."

So much for feigning ignorance. Instantly, I knew that my chances for everything I could plan on doing with $130 was going to got to Nicholasville's finest.

Hope comes in the form of a down trodden county clerk when she informs me that if I just update my tags they'll probably drop the charges. So now I feel as though I have $130 to spend again and so I'm trying to find ways to spend the money that I was planning on saving until I got pulled over.

Yea!!! now I'm special too

Now that I have a my own place to to write my private diary to the world I feel special... Not that I should feel any more special than anyone else who has the craft to follow templates, but this is a new thing to me. I guess I should get my name out there to make myself feel more special.
