The Matrix

So I have never actually seen the Matrix straight through before. I am hoping it is slightly better than Johnny Mnemonic. The movie is just starting. I'm pretty excited-- I'm not going to lie. Ahhh! I just found that this blog thing has a spell check!!! Right now everything we do is being watched. I'm trying to get into this movie... Now, they are going clubbing in the futuristic club. Trinity just approaced Neo. She tells him that he is in danger and that he is being watched. This movie is actually kind of cool... Neo is the ONE apparently. They just fished that creature out of him. The Matrix is everywhere!!! Wow that was creepy. He is hooked up to a bunch of machines.

Johnny Mnemonic

Johnny has the ability to store important information in his head that is far too sensitive for a regular computer network to handle. The information that he has was originally stolen from the Yakuza-- the mafia. Johnny is in trouble and travels with a gun. He talks to Ralfi about how he feels conned into storing the information. He runs into Molly Millions, who helps him escape the Yakuza. She dresses in tight red leather pants and has had surgery to change her appearance. They get help from the navy and lo-tek (low technology) people and in the end beat the mafia. They decide to make a living with the information Johnny has stored and blackmailing the people involved.

The film is very weird. It is not what I expected in comparison with the story. Keanu Reeves is hot though-- so I guess thats's okay. The people in the costumes scare me. I think that the movie does a decent job of following the short story. The lo-tek people look different than I envisioned them. Johnny can hold over 80 gigs of data in his head, which is why the Yakuza are after him. He had to eliminate his longterm memory to hold all of that memory. He cannot remember his childhood. Molly is sick with something and convulsing. She tells him to look for spider. She has the Black Shake. Technology has caused it. The creepy priest guy just bashed the old man's hand off... I'm creeped out yet again. Wait!!!! Something juicy!!! Johnny is carrying the cure for the Black Shake!!!!
