Bank Holiday Matrix
Yesterday was a Bank Holiday in the UK, which used to mean that everybody had a holiday, but now it means that everyone who doesn't work in a shop or restaurant or pub has a holiday.
Anyway, Bank Holidays usuallu equal good films on TV (err and Ben Hur and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang). Last night ITV1 showed The Matrix, and they're showing Reloaded tonight and Revolutions tomorrow.
It reminded me of two things.
(1) The Matrix is an awesomely brilliant film.
(2) I'm long overdue on my Star Wars / Matrix trilogy comparison.
