Me too, now it all seems so horribly pretentious and the entire series just some sexy veneer over a lot of milquetoast AI and information theory concepts.

The first movie still holds fairly well as a stand-alone. I feel there's a reason sci-fi creatives get reigned in by management often. Its to avoid sequalitis where movies become info dumping grounds for whatever books the director read recently. Frankly, I feel the series would have been better as a bunch of books instead of movies with a lot of 25 cent words tossed it. I feel embarrassed for the Watchowski's anytime "The Architect" is on-screen.
