Sorry... hehe.. no slander towards the great evil dead trilogy.. I love it
too. I just was always annoyed that the end of Evil Dead 2 shows Ash
getting worshipped as a type of God... and at the beginning of Army of
Darkness, they show the last 5 minutes or so of Evil Dead 2, but instead of
ash getting worshipped, he's getting thrown in chains and enslaved. That
was just the most obvious example I could come up with.
The Matrix didn't do that. They were very obviously trying to avoid that,
even in their in-show acknowledgement that the Oracle was played by a
different actress. They didn't just try to slip a new actress in and hope
we didn't notice. It was very consistent, without any attempts at a cheat.
Every plotline that ran throughout the story was, to me at least, adequately
explained. In all honesty, I was really worried about that in the end of
Reloaded, I thought they were just going to go "ok, Neo can control the real
world now, whoop-de-doo" - even though they more or less did that, they at
least made an attempt at explaining. Instead of glossing over it, they
stared you right at it by blinding Neo and making you see things through his
new eyes. It's still far fetched, but at least it was acknowledged, I guess
that's my point.
