why haven't they been able to top the matrix?
>>215109283>why haven't they been able to top the matrix?because they are bottoms
>>215109283Is it true that they were injected with ketamine while having orgasm torture?
Some folks just got one in them and they're done. It's sometimes a great one, but that's it.

Hollywood destroyed their mental health.
>>215109283idk, but cloud atlas came pretty close
>>215110041Yes. They looked like a pair of very healthy, well adjusted and completely socially ingratiated young men beforehand.
>>215110054Eh the source material was great but their execution of it wasn't anything special. It was however racially playful in a way you can't do anymore and the directors both being troons makes that a delicious contradiction to poke annoying people with.
>>215110113Well, the first one was already gone and just trying to hide it in public, and always had been.
>>215110240My theory is that they were terribly, horribly, and cripplingly outcast (and horifically neglected at home) and thusly they developed an eldtrichian co-dependent symbiosis and consequently once the first trooned then the lifeblood of their sustaining connection was devastatingly shattered leaving the chunky brother no other choice but to endure their fatal downturn of a debilitating isolation or to follow suit and to restore the unification of their symbiosis.
>>215110155The book was just six disconnected short stories.
>>215109283Their only bad movie was Jupiter ascending, and that was due to studio meddling. The rest are great.
>>215110458no it wasn't, it was structurally unique and interconnected
>>215109336the pink one began dating a dominatrix after The Matrix came outsome have suggested the problems the sequel have stem from him being very distracted by her during the filming of the sequels>>215109888They had worked on the script for years, just like Pizzalotto and the first srason of True Detective the layers of refinement can work wonders and being given carte blanche can have the opposite effectIt also had a pretty modest budget where their later films had buckets of money thrown at them, again this forced them to limit themselves and focus on what was really important
>>215110402he now dates a ftm too lel
>>215109283They were the first people in Hollywood to try ketamine and make a movie about it. If they hadn't made it, someone else would have made something akin to it, albeit in a different style. That means they are hacks who got lucky once.
>>215109283The Matrix (the original; the sequels are garbage) is very close to a perfect film. The only thing that brings it down is the shoehorned Neo/Trinity romance. After a film like that, there's nowhere to go but down.
>>215109283name any director who was able to top whatever they did before 2008
>>215109329FPBPlmao holy fuck this board is okay sometimes
