Ugh. Damnit. Was going to go to bed, but the entire neigborhood smells like an electrical fire right now. My eyes are burning, and so is my throat. What the heck?

Someone wondered aloud whether Revolutions was really going to be the last Matrix film, or whether it was going to go all Douglas Adams (my words, not hers). I said I didn't have a doubt that it would be. This is because, quite simply, I have been amazed by the Wachowski brothers' ability to use multiple media to tell their story. Having done that carefully, they'll finish up with the story in Revolutions. Oh, but wait. That doesn't mean there aren't still stories to be told. Not just stuff like 'Enter the Matrix', where a bunch of the background stuff from Reloaded gets exposed, but apparently they're going to have an _online_ game for the Matrix. Now, I have a bleeding, sucking chest wound worth of prejudice against online games because they suck time like a 15000 volt Hoover, so my instinct is that this is going a bit far. I may be wrong. Just note that this is part of the story I'll be missing and pestering people who actually crack out on it what it's like.
