The Matrix

     Last night I watched one of my old favorites- the Matrix. The film is about a computer programmer, Neo, who meets a group of rebels who reveal to him his true path as the One. Throughout the film, Neo discovers truths about reality and the false reality he was living in the Matrix. What I really like about this movie is the setting- the perfect 90s sci fi flick with the blue tints and the tan, blocky computers- right down to the clothes they wear inside and outside of the Matrix. I don't quite think theres anything I dislike about this movie. All in all I give it about a 10/10, its a classic for a reason, people. Watch it!

Introduction and Man from Earth

Hopefully I can make this a successful thing considering I was never that good at writing about things that interest me. Maybe this will do well. Maybe it won't.

      Last night I watched a movie called Man from Earth and it was very interesting, albeit visually unstimulating. Taking place essentially within 1 conversation in a room, it was essentially about a man who had lived 14,000 years but had stopped aging at 35. He was a cro-magnon and learned with the human race. What I thought what interesting about this film was that it wasn't about the 14,000 year old man, it was about how the people in the conversation learned about history firsthand and how enraged human beings get when their beliefs about common sense, science, and not to mention religion, get shaken.
