I agree with most of what you said, and I don't want movies to be 100% realistic (I'm a fan of science fiction and horror, after all). But I think that using stupid or plainly wrong physics is a bad thing, like the human batteries in Matrix. But I've already said that Matrix has it's good points, and I'll go and watch it.

And how old r u? Here in Brazil Matrix will be rated for people over 16, is it different where you live?

Live long and prosper.
