This is an interesting little debate that is going on here. First off I need to say that I agree with lindil on the issue. Because I have read the books, I think that the Matrix is a better movie. This is, however, a biased view, beacuse i am letting my thoughts on the LOTR affect the coice. ROTK is more epic than the Matrix, but it think that the Matrix 2 and 3 will appeal to a broader section of the country.<P> I think that probably the RoTK has an advantage in the run for the oscars, because the people wanting to choose the Matrix as the top movie wont know which movie to pick, two or three. This will split the vote, which will most likely be close, giving RoTK the win.
