There's an old saying. If you don't want someone to join a crowd, you ask them, "If everyone were jumping off of a cliff, would you?" Well, I have. So my answer would be "Yes". True story.

THE MATRIX TRILOGY RE-RELEASED ON HD-DVD AND BLU-RAY; NO LONGER SUCKS

Fans of the Warner Bros. hit Matrix Trilogy, which includes The Matrix, The Matrix Reloaded, and The Matrix Revolutions will be especially pleased with the new HD-DVD and Blu-Ray re-releases: it no longer sucks. Warner Bros. announced today that with the new High Definition technologies, big differences really can be made. "With High Definition," said Leonard Maltin, famous movie critic, "the movie becomes a completely different experience. With the unprecedented fidelity in both audio and visual, you no longer notice how fucking boring that stupid scene in Reloaded with that idiot French Guy is; in fact, it becomes a positively brilliant scene, bursting with cleverness. The dialogue may have seemed to pointlessly run on for pages and pages and the acting achingly stilted in standard definition, but on Blu-Ray and HD-DVD, not only are the video and audio markedly more gorgeous, but so is the writing and acting. Or the bafflingly pretentious, utterly unfollowable scene with the Architect in the same movie-- everything is so crisp and clear, the plot holes solve themselves, and this scene makes sense and comes off as downright inspired, rather than feeling like the worst climax in the history of popular movies. High Def makes the directors' true intentions come out: standard defintion made the film look like drivel, but in high definition, I finally see why they ended the movie with the worst cliff-hanger in the history of cinema." The third movie in the film, The Matrix Revolutions, has especially benefitted from the transfer to High Definition. "I couldn't even sit halfway through that piece of shit," said Maltin, referring to its original theatric release. "It was just awful. Even getting a blowjob from a stripper while watching it didn't make the experience any better-- and I tried that three or four times, with increasingly better strippers. But with the transfer to High Def, the movie becomes so gorgeous, with such head-spinningly crisp audio, the plot itself benefits. The ending doesn't feel convulated, nor the beginning off putting. The Matrix Revolutions becomes pure poetry in HD. The High Def experience really does make that big of a difference." Added Maltin: "The Star Wars prequels still suck in High Def, though."
