Will Matrix 2 and 3 take much of the popualr wind out of the RotK's sails - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I can only say that I hope it does not. I don't think it has done to well, since I heard its popularity dropped drastically recently, and didn't spend too much time in everyone's wanting to see list. You see, it SUCKED, so really, LOTR should have no problem. Going to the Matrix Reloaded, I had great expectations, and I am fairly easy to please, but...well, let's just say it wasn't even cool special effects with a free plot inside. Nope. Stinky plot, confusing, spent too much time on stupid stuff, just one big excuse for dudes in all black wearing sunglasses to kick butt and be able to fly around while doing so. I would have enjoyed it better, had Neo had a red cape, but...we're not here to talk about the movie, just whether it will lessen LOTR's popularity.<P>I believe that it won't, since this second one didn't come out close to TTT and it was stinky, and the third one, I believe it is coming out around when ROTK does, right? Or kinda close... But, I think people will be sick of the Matrix by then...maybe...
