In reference to a couple of questions:
- Yea, I cribbed the opening WB logo from CONSTANTINE. I tinted it green to fit the mood...
- The Federal Building Lobby Destruction scene from THE MATRIX
was tweaked a little to shorten it. In the 1st cut I made, I had that scene 'cut to black' just as the cops opened fire. Then there would be the sounds of the fight over the dark screen for about 15 seconds, then would cut back in just as Trinity drops her gun & picks up that duffel bag. I like that, but since I had cut the similar scene from the beginning of REVOLUTIONS, I decided to put this one back in. ( I was removing to much of the bang-bang action scenes)
- There is no definitive meaning as to whether Neo is dreaming or not. I liked the (murky, vague, not-spelled-out) idea that
maybe he dreamed everything because suddenly he is given the chance to choose 'red pill or blue pill' again. Knowing the result and choosing again is the true test of a good decision...
- The music from the CHOCALHO DA MORTE logo is by guitarist
Ali Farka Toure.
