One of many issues I take pleasure in about being a journalist is that tales, concepts, and ideas can come from all kinds of locations: working example, when on a date and discussing the subject of flicks, it was introduced to me that The Matrix<\/em><\/a> is a \u2018comfortable\u2019 film.<\/p>\n

I cracked a smile at that; for many who don\u2019t know thrust of The Matrix<\/em> is that robots rose up towards people and enslaved our consciousness in a digital world whereas they use us as organic batteries, with the few individuals who escaped from the system now coming into the titular Matrix to free chosen people from this digital jail. From that premise, and the darkish, cyberpunk tone of the film, I\u2019d by no means have thought to explain it as comfortable.<\/p>\n
