Take The Red Pill

I am trying. So hard. Not to. Read the. Spoilers. Yesterday I was poking around MeFi and noticed a Matrix thread. Which linked to a Wired article. I skipped the comments and clicked through to the story. After skimming it a bit I realized they were giving away a little too much. That I didn’t want to know. I want to be surprised. Spoilers=bad in my book (which makes whedonesque.com one of my more dangerous haunts). So I quickly closed the browser window. But lo and behold…I went down to the mailroom this morning, and what should I find staring up at me? A hard copy of Wired magazine, the new issue featuring the Matrix sequel(s), with Jada Pinkett Smith on the cover. And beautiful, glossy photos to go along with the article I’m avoiding. Must resist. The urge. It doesn’t help that I watched the latest Animatrix installment this morning. Which had a good, gritty quality to it. The writing left something to be desired, but Carrie Anne Moss did the voice of Trinity…which left me wanting more. Just a little over a month to go. Hopefully I can remain spoiler-free in the interim. Wish me luck.
