True, very true. I didn't see the movie in the theaters, but I got to preview it before it came out on DVD. I've been obsessed ever since.

I still don't have the comic book though. Grr... I need to read it. But, I do have the mask.

this has to be the only film which Hugo Weaving acted in and in which I don't see him as Agent Smith

I must agree, even though I didn't see the Matrix until after I'd seen Lord of the Rings. But that might have something to do with the fact that we never actually see his face.
