have you ever read a comic called the invisibles? written by grant morrison? Particularly the first trade paperback - "Say You Want a Revolution?" The first arc of the story?
If you have, then you've seen the first matrix film.
and there lies the problem. there is only so far you can go with lifting ideas and characters from another source before someone calls you on it or you get sued...
so you have to stop with that. and you have to think for yourself. and try and figure out how to push these ideas and characters you have molded from other material to become your own, otherwise you have some serious copyright infringement at hand. and hell, you just don't seem that original anymore...
so what do you do? you loose the science and theory and get on with the dudes gettin' kicked and shit sploding.... which is what seemed to have happened with the Wachowski's.
if you'd like to see what would have happened in the second matrix film had the Wachowski's bought the rights to the invisibles or copyright law didn't exist, then go and pick up the second trade paperback of the invisibles at your local comic store or Barnes & Noble...
