Clever.
I'm hoping Lana Wackowski had more creative control (authority) this time. The premise of humans as batteries, because some dweeb studio execs couldn't imagine AI parasites using humans as CPUs, was turrible.
Awaiting the second movie, our office (of nerds) had a strict "no spoilers" policy. Our team was going to the opening that weekend. I trolled a superfan coworker by saying the humans were on a generation ship, kept in suspended animation, and the simulation was meant to keep them sane, but something broke. She was so mad at me. Twice. (Still disappointed she never pranked me in retaliation.)
