    But didn't people really buy into it as a metaphorical thing for how the world actually worked? That's what I'm trying to think back on. I just never paid much attention to it.

    For example, Akagiyama, do some people view it as a great story and that's it, or do some people view it as though it has actual merit in being a representation of the real world?

    Obviously, there isn't a matrix, but I feel like some out there treated the movie as some kind of scripture that it was possible or real.

    • Right, so what are you actually asking?
      If it's good or bad = it's good.

    • And it's good because you can't really tell for sure if "obviously, there isn't a matrix"grafician
    • what do you mean “obviously there isn’t a matrix?” ;)monospaced
    • It’s fun to think about. And they presented it really well in a tremendously unique way.monospaced
    • Can't answer for anyone else, but I personally viewed it as a great movie with a (at the time) fresh perspective on "is this real life?".Akagiyama
    • Mainly that it was kick ass, great SFX, music, and action. :)Akagiyama
