Too bad Lana Wachowski spent those two decades dulling her writing skills with such bombs as Ninja Assassin, Cloud Atlas, and Jupiter Ascending, defiling the Matrix franchise with a pointless sequel

This reminds me of the best science fair project I saw back when I was teaching. 5th grade kid decided to test the role of each ingredient in a cookie recipe (think it was chocolate chip). He did one control batch exactly to the recipe. Then a series of others where he left out one ingredient and compared it to the control.
I thought it was the perfect science fair project for a 5th grade kid. Clearly based on an idea he had of a real question he wondered about ('What does all this stuff do?'). Something he clearly did all the work on himself. Managed to perfectly demonstrate the Scientific Method and to show how it is applicable and useful to daily life.

I really liked it. It was a good sendup of sequelitis while also continuing the nature of choice vs. free will. A lot of my popcorn-throwing at things in the trailers was placated by things in the movie (why new-Morpheus would get angry instead of staying serene as a Hindu cow, for example)
The fight scenes were stupid, but I don't like the movies for those.
"MISTER ANDERSON! I've missed you!"
"About four times so far, yeah"

I was in some freethinking class in the 5th and 6th grade where we would work through interesting thought problems. One was, sugar cookies and chocolate chip cookies and oatmeal cookies have wildly different ingredient proportions, puzzle out why and then make a batch of sugar-oatmeal-chip cookies to test your hypotheses.
My cookies were awesome. I think I just averaged the ingredients and made some small adjustments to the flour due to the oatmeal content.

Plus, tasty. Smart kid. I did one where I built a bunch of perpetual motion machines out of LEGO and my co-experimenters had to explain the physics about why they couldn't work. I had a good time. But I didn't get cookies.

Once again, too self centered to know what I said, so hiding behind a keyboard spreading lies. I wear a sneeze guard, whenever I'm near other people. An n95 is a sneeze guard. Unless Omni is 1000 times larger than others. (Don't know the exact number; look it up if ya want)
For the record, I have never once, on this forum or any other, made fun of anyone wearing a mask. I have questioned some of the reasons.
Can yall please stop with the bickering and potshots? I come here for peace and good E36 M3, not more drama, trauma, and berkeleyery.

Your right. I tried to use bad humor to counter bad humor, and he got his panties in a bunch, and started with insults. I tend to forget some are like that. I'll retract what I can.
