Thread 212148562

so why did they run around in trench coats and latex outfits when plugged into the matrix?

>>212148562 (OP)
Maybe that was considered fashion for them, they certainly couldn't dress like that in the real world.

>>212148562 (OP)
Why do zoomies wear clothes 5x too large? Because it was the style at the time.

>>212148562 (OP)
Because you can wear and be whoever you want in the Matrix.

>>212148562 (OP)
Neo looked so much cooler with the trench coat in 1. These Kung fu master outfits were fucking gay

>>212148825
Sounds horrible

>>212148825
The sequels suck regardless of the edit. They also are anti white blacked propaganda

>>212148875
90s >>> 00s

One of the reasons that I prefer Dark City to the Matrix are the costumes and set design. I just think Dark City ends up holding up better as it is kind of timeless as it's primarily rooted in the past.

Don't care about this crap. These movies are a unique product of their time and completely mog anything made in decades. I want as much runtime as possible with them. So happy they made Animatrix and multiple tie-in games. Unlike modern movies, they actually put a ton of thought and effort into these.

Why do you put on outfits when playing mmos? You should just run around with your exact chubby avatar and current clothing

>>212148562 (OP)
while we're at it, why did they all get gamertag names outside the matrix?

>>212150843
They were all hackers. That's how they learned of Morpheus and Trinity, then eventually found them.

>>212148562 (OP)
Because The Matrix is cringe and lame.

>>212148562 (OP)
because it is cool

Matrix-fags look at this and think its the coolest thing ever.

>>212151497
If that guy could actually move faster than you could see and fly, it would be the coolest shit ever.

>>212148562 (OP)
It's called swag and you wouldn't get it.

>>212148825
i watched a fan edit of The Hobbit which omitted all the non-book content and another fan edit of the Star Wars sequels which combines the last two movies and changes the narrative so Leia had twins which were Kylo/Ben and Rey. both still sucked, you can't salvage terrible films with editing alone no matter what anyone tells you about the first Star Wars movie.

school shooter is way more fucking gayer than fucking freddie mercury you homosexual bitch

i'll 2000s over late 1990s any time
real 1990s are early ninenties 1990-1995

>>212148875
they probably had to change it due to columbine

>>212148562 (OP)
Mental projection of their digital self

>>212148562 (OP)
better stats, of course they're gonna use raid tier sets

The rule of cool

>>212148562 (OP)
It's accurate to what a perpetually online dork in 1999 would think was cool

So, so cool

>>212152346
>So, so cool
it was when handsome characters on the screen did it...then it became a lame larpfest for neckbeards and became cringe.
coinciding with myspace/social media's rise in popularity was the true problem

The "Star War was saved in edit" thing is a meme spread by retards who hate the prequels so they have to pretend George was always a hack even though American Graffiti exists to disprove this claim

>>212152521
>pretend George was always a hack even though American Graffiti exists to disprove this claim
I'd never claim he was a hack...but sometime art is improved by limitations.
> Initially, director Steven Spielberg intended to feature the mechanical shark much more frequently.
However, the three animatronic shark models built for the film had significant technical problems, primarily due to the saltwater environment of Martha's Vineyard where the film was shot. Saltwater corroded the internal mechanics and caused the rubber skin to deteriorate, leading to frequent breakdowns. This forced Spielberg to adjust his filming strategy

The goth look was cringe in the 80s. It was cringe in the 90s. It was cringe in the 2000s. And guess what? Its cringe now.

>>212153124
it's only cringe when ugly people do it

>so now i will post pictures on 4chan of some neckbeards in poorly fitting thrift store threads to reaffirm my self security!

>>212148772
No it wasnt

It's very obviously a foil on the agents who are also a stand-in for corporate/federal bureaucracy while they are... drug addicts that go to homosexual nightclubs and get pegged in the ass by a dominatrix

>>212148825
If you're going to watch editslop the only good ones are the HAL9000 prequel edits and rogue one

>>212148562 (OP)
Dark and simple was easier to render on the hardware of the time. Once the look was set, they needed to continue with it for consistency.

In the deleted scenes they shoot up a bunch of high schools with those outfits on

>>212148562 (OP)
Watch this instead

>>212148562 (OP)
Because they saw Blade and ripped it off

>>212148562 (OP)
in order to create a visual identity.
