Plan worked out

Garrett and I talked about the project in class on Wednesday and decided that we would spend the next week watching the movies, and when we have done so (by next Wednesday), then we will share notes and talk about what we could talk about during our presentation that would convince the entire class that The Matrix Trilogy is without a doubt a western film. Another idea that came up in discussions was the fact that in western movies, the hero always gets the girl. Neo is predetermined to fall in love with Trinity by the Oracle, and Trinity states this in one of the movies (I think the first or second one?). I'll have to find that while watching them, but the movies will all take 7 hours to watch, even if I'm going non-stop, one after the other. Plus, neither of us actually own these movies. I have a friend with the second and third movies, but that still leaves me with the first. Hopefully, I can find a watchable version online. If not, then I'll rent it or something.

  1. You sound like you have a good plan. Good luck with watching all of these movies. The Matrix is a great movie and will be a interesting presentation to hear. It will be different to hear the similarties between the matrix and cowboy films.
