My thoughts on Quo Vadis - a great movie for Easter weekend

No, I didn't like The Matrix at all

My latest column is up at The Bleeding Fool - a withering remembrance of The Matrix, which turned 20 years old this year.  How time flies.

I don't have much to add other than it seems like the perfect metaphor of style over substance.

Strip away the special effects and the red pill/blue pill metaphor, and there's not much left.  In fact, I think the interesting thing about the pill thing is that younger folks probably aren't even aware where it came from.
