So I saw the Matrix: Reloaded last night. Everyone else
is talking about it, so I thought I would as well. Well, I
agree with what alot of the people in the boards were saying
about trying not to compare it to the first one. The fist
movie was a precedent onto itself, the foundation on which
the rest of the series will stand. I think this movie had a
sense of the rawness of humanity, of testing the limits of
faith against the practical model of reality. That's why the
dance scene was important. I am reminded of the Old
Testament, and their lament for the fall of Zion. Historically,
it served a purpose as it was a recognition of humanities
responsibility to itself, in not just it's physical, but it's moral
perserverence. The whole movie was archtypal in that sense.
There is a powerfull message there. Hope can have a tangible
effect on the world.

Screaming children are an unavoidable part of the Matrix
as well, I suppose.
