Free Will is a Big Responsibility, and Free Willy is a Big Whale

I saw the Matrix Reloaded today and was fairly impressed. Once they got the first half hour or so out of the way, it was a quickly-paced movie with some interesting plot twists and points about control and free will that I won't reveal so as not to spoil the movie for those who have no yet seen it.

Seeing this, along with the trailer for the hilarious Arnold Schwarzenegger in Terminator 3: Arnold Butchers English Once Again With Funny Catchphrases, really drives the point home that the whole futuristic "machines become too intelligent and destroy the means" genre of films is just our version of the campy 50's horror flicks where the monsters rose from nuclear fallout. Only these movies have bigger budgets and are not dubbed over Japanese.
