Matrix Revolutions... not a rival for ROTK

[Imladris]

Quoted Matrix Revolutions spoiler:<BR>*<BR>*<BR>*<BR>*<BR>*<BR>*<BR> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> It's pretty sad when the two main characters die and the audience is left completely dry eyed. There wasn't a single character I could care about at the end and when that happens, how the hell could you care about the plot. They could have wiped out Zion and I would have left the theatre feeling pretty much the same.<BR> <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Maybe dry eyed for you, but I cried my eyes out when Trinity dies and Neo. <P>In a way, LotR and Matrix are very similiar films: they have a bad guy that wants to take over the entire and then they have a good guy that destroys the bad guy (though I'm trying to decide if Aragorn or Frodo would more compare with Neo). Frodo basically gives up his life for Middle-earth, the sacrifice of which culminates in his going back to the Valinor. <P>However you might disagree about character developement and plot (which, I for one, think is interesting), the stories are telling the same story of nobility, sacrifice, and selfless love. <P>That offers a lot, to me.
