The Uncut Gems Podcast - Episode 47: The Matrix Sequels
The Uncut Gems Podcast is a show where a bunch of like-minded individuals gather around a virtual table to discuss films that for one reason or another have become forgotten. Tongues pressed firmly in cheek, the team don their film historian top hats and rant from sedentary positions to hopefully conclude whether the film in question deserves to be covered by sands of time or if it is a classic in dire need of attention.
In this episode of the show, we finally become one with the source and finish our Circling The Matrix marathon by talking about the two movies that followed the iconic The Matrix, namely Matrix Reloaded and Matrix Revolutions. As we battled over our respective stances towards these two very unique features, we did not leave a stone unturned. We gushed over the Wachowskis' vision and scope for action set pieces, the multitude of philosophical references found in the movies, their alleged self-indulgence, cultural footprint and much, much more. So, take the red pill and join us as on this epic journey!
