Hmm, the more I think about it, the more I really would like to see "follow the white rabbit" typed across the screen as the very last image in the series. I think that adds the right touch.
What do you think, Jason?
Ok, while I'm at it, I'll just voice some of the other things about the sequels that bugged me and I'll leave it up to you to decide if you want to work on any of it for the final:
- shots of guys in their mechsuits screaming while firing their machine guns at the end; this is such a tired cliche of action movies, and I think ANY moment that drags the Matrix down to that level just feels like a kick in the groin.
- The captain yelling orders during the battle; no way in hell anyone could hear him, and if I remember the second time he barks an order it's the same thing as the first time and has no real bearing on what's happening anyway
- I really hated that when the human Smith first confronts Neo, it takes Neo FOREVER to figure out that it's Smith. I mean come on, from the very first "Mr Anderson..." Neo should instantly know. If there's any way to shorten or remove Neo's slow realization, that would be great. It makes "the one" look like a moron.
Maybe it's a testimony to your edit that I can't remember any other "groan" moments right now!
Anyway, consider that "white rabbit" thing, I think it could work.
