Whoa.

The Matrix Fan Theory That Makes Agent Smith the True 'One'
The Matrix Trilogy is driven by the mystery of whether Neo, the film’s protagonist, is actually the savior of mankind. But here’s a crazy theory: What if Neo’s arch nemesis, Agent Smith, was actually “The One” this entire time.
The Wachowskis’ Sense8 Is the Philip K. Dick Adaptation We Always Wanted
Critics seem unsure whether Sense8 is a masterpiece, a disaster, or both. But it’s still a game-changer—pushing the limits of narrative, and testing genre fiction’s patriarchal worldview for weak points. And with a concept that revolves around empathy and personhood, it’s also a great Philip K. Dick tribute.
The Matrix Reloaded Is A Fun Movie. Stop Pretending It Doesn't Exist.
It seems to be a law of the Internet that, whenever someone mentions the Wachowskis’ 1999 film The Matrix, someone must inevitably snarks, “It’s a shame they never made any sequels.” Sure, the first sequel, The Matrix Reloaded, never reaches the heights of its predecessor, but it also isn’t worth tossing aside.
The Wachowskis' Sense8 Is Slow, Confusing... And Kind Of Fascinating
Sense8, the mysterious new show from the Wachowskis and J. Michael Straczynski, goes up tomorrow on Netflix. We’ve seen the first three episodes... and we’re still not sure what the show is about. No real spoilers here, because we would have to understand what’s going on to spoil anything.
First Trailer For The Wachowskis' New TV Series Sense8
The Wachowskis making any TV series at all would be intriguing, but a show co-created by Babylon 5’s J. Michael Straczynski, all about eight strangers who mysteriously become mentally and emotionally linked to each other? Well, that’s a show we need to check out — and here’s our first look.
Jupiter Ascending Is A Very Decadent Movie About Why Decadence Is Bad
Jupiter Ascending isn't just a mediocre film. It's also self-indulgent, and in love with its own excesses. It's like the sick love-child of Zardoz and Fifth Element. But what's really odd about Jupiter is that it wants to criticize opulence and selfishness, and yet it's a movie that thinks "more" is always "better."
Final Jupiter Ascending Trailer Is A Mini-Version Of The Entire Movie
Warner Bros. is clearly worried about Jupiter Ascending. Sure, it looks gorgeous, but it also looks so damn weird — which is presumably why WB released this three-minute trailer just a week before the film's release which seems to explain everything that's going to happen in the movie, in chronological order.
New Jupiter Ascending Trailer Finally Merges Scifi Spectacle With Story
The early trailers for the Wachowskis' Jupiter Ascending have always looked impressive, but they seemed like they wanted to bludgeon people into theaters by assaulting them with an overabundance of chaotic scifi/CG action. But this third trailer is the first one to makes me want to see the movie.
Jupiter Ascending Comic-Con Footage Sealed The Deal: This Movie Rocks
The trailers for Jupiter Ascending, the Wachowskis' wild-and-demented space opera collision, have looked pretty fun but also somewhat goofy. But today at Comic-Con, we saw a ton of footage, and we're pretty much sold on the humor, the incredibly creative action, and yes, the "chosen one" storyline.
New Trailer Makes Jupiter Ascending Look Like 18 Space Operas In One
Seriously, this film is busy. There are space princesses, space elves, space ships, space real estate issues, some kind of space dragon, a space Sean Bean — no wonder the movie was pushed back seven months to work on the special effects. It probably took 'em two months just to do the SFX for this new trailer.
