Matrix Revisited

Unlike me, Randall Munroe noticed that it's the tenth anniversary of the release (er, Australian; it was 11 June here in the UK) of 'The Matrix'.  Wow.  Ten years.

Somehow, I missed any hype around the film and went into the cinema 'cold' (so what tempted me to go?). I was so blown-away that I returned the very next evening – the first and, to date, only time I've ever done that.

"Too bad they never made any sequels." Well, apart from 'The Animatrix', of course.
[Nah; the sequels were okay, in a mindless way; just poor in comparison to the original.]
