Went to a matinee of Reloaded, unexpectantly paid $5.25 per ticket.
Hmmm, good for me, Jack. Paid nine dollars for a popcorn and a soda, got
busted at the door trying to import my own food. *merde!* Saw it twice.

Note: If you stay through the nine minutes of credits you see two
minutes of the Revolutions trailer. I routinely do that anyway---there
should be a constitutional ammendment aimed at TV stations that savage
them. Haven't seen a cool rendition of ``I love it Loud'' as the credits
roll on ``Tommy Boy''? Your loss, I asssure you.

Thoughts.

- The Oracle scene reminds me of Sesame Street. Am I alone? I kept
  expecting Oscar the Grouch to pop out of the trash can.

- The ``One'' on the payphone and on the left rear wall.

- 1300 all over the place. ? Beyond me. Half of 2600. Couldn't be.

- Exile---fine. Delete---fine. Athough I kept foreboding shades of
  ``Tron.'' Decompile. This has always remained cryptic to me. Were
  programs ever decompiled in lieu of deletion? I defer to older, wiser
  hands. Please.

- The highway scene's worth the price of admission, the Superman scenes
  nearly as well.
  
   o Ducatis. Nice! Chivas Regal of sport bikes.

- Kwitsatz Haderach elements. To wit, doesn't need the voice box
  ultimately.

- Other stuff, but, it's trivia really. For example, the Orwellian
  number references, clue where did Neo live in the first film?
