The costume design in the sequels really went overboard.
Angel Gonzalez
The aesthetics of the film are strongly marked by BSDM concepts. It serves as a curtain for meaning.

Go watch capeshit.

1999 was really weird

Tyler Lee
the directors were into that shit
Jayden Cruz
It was fun how The Matrix made several weirdos start using trenchcoats and leather... Everything for a while. The 2000s were a cringe time
Jose Smith
why not?
Thomas Robinson
More like 2003.
Ayden Morris
What do you mean by that? I would have guessed that it was just directors putting their fetishes on screen but is there some deeper thematical meanings for all that?
Bentley Jenkins
Reminder for the freshly born fetuses in this thread: The Matrix is rated R for Adult.
Some how Keanu's films always hit popular culture. John wick has probably been seen by many teens at this point.
Her suit is beautiful. Get over it.

Considering that the film addresses issues such as social control, it is possible that clothing is a reference as sexual inclinations such as the BSDM are, from the point of view of directors, a way to evade collective programming as well as visually homogenize people outside the matrix, just as black color represents efficiency and sobriety.
Indeed the directors were involved in the BSDM circuit of LA, so it's also the idea can be understood as you state, bringing your own fetishes into the films you make, like Tarantino or Hitchcock with blondes and feet.

>Her suit is beautiful. Get over it.
My point has been so far that in the first movie her suit is fine. Everyone's costumes are fine. In the sequels they went into total fuckery territory.
Robert Morris
looks more like spy. domme would have more separate clothes, belts, straps... etc
Connor Adams
yeah, but Trinity downloaded how to move around in fetish gear before hand
Luke Cooper
I'm 28 yo user, I was old enough to see the weird people using those clothes, and to understand they were using trenchcoats during summer because they saw it in the movie.
Joshua Scott
I can argue against that except when is Ducati time.
Christian Evans
They didn't push it far enough
Asher Wood
why are the matrix sequels so fucking bad
Cooper Walker
I was defending the vestimentary choices you retarded dumbfuck. Have a (youp)
Wyatt Smith
because the original idea wasn't that deep. It was typical fight the authority shit dressed up with some religious terms and virtual reality nonsense and it happened to come out at the right time. There was little to extend two more movies out of
Lincoln Campbell
One of the most overrated movies ever.
Elijah Lopez
>It's really simple. The truth of that one is that design staff on The Matrix were given Invisibles collections and told to make the movie look like my books. This is a reported fact. The Wachowskis are comic book creators and fans and were fans of my work, so it's hardly surprising. I was even contacted before the first Matrix movie was released and asked if I would contribute a story to the website.
>It's not some baffling 'coincidence' that so much of The Matrix is plot by plot, detail by detail, image by image, lifted from Invisibles so there shouldn't be much controversy. The Wachowskis nicked The Invisibles and everyone in the know is well aware of this fact but of course they're unlikely to come out and say it.
>It was just too bad they deviated so far from the Invisibles philosophical template in the second and third movies because they blundered helplessly into boring Catholic theology, proving that they hadn't HAD the 'contact' experience that drove The Invisibles, and they wrecked both 'Reloaded' and 'Revolutions' on the rocks of absolute incomprehension. They should have kept on stealing from me and maybe they would have wound up with something to really be proud of - a movie that could change minds and hearts and worlds.
>I love the first Matrix movie which I think is a real work of cinematic genius and very timely but I've now heard from several people who worked on The Matrix and they've all confirmed that they were given Invisibles books as reference. That's how it is. I'm not angry about it anymore, although at one time I was because they made millions from what was basically a Xerox of my work and to be honest, I would be happy with just one million so I didn't have to work thirteen hours of every ****ing day, including weekends.
Joseph Parker
You reminded me of something tremendously important. Does anyone remember what a madness Matrix was during the pre-sequels era? And I'm not saying that from the point of view of people who go to the cinema, but from the point of view of companies.
They all wanted a piece of the cake. The commercials seemed like feverish dreams, they all wanted to be referenced within the film. The Nokia 8110 cell phone in the first film was replaced by the Samsung Matrix: A special edition phone made exclusively for the film and for which 100 limited edition units were made. General Motors made sure that all vehicles during the chase scene were their own brand. Matrix appeared everywhere, in cellphones commercials, in soda commercials. A very strange effect was produced.
Then came the aftermath and it was as if everyone had been embarrassed in public.
Evan Fisher
>In the end, I was glad they got the ideas out but very disappointed that they blew it so badly and distorted all the Gnostic transcendental aspects that made the first film so strong and potent. If they had any sense, they would have befriended me instead of pissing me off. They seem like nice boys.
Sebastian Clark
>Her suit is beautiful.
OP here, I agree. I wasn't criticizing it, just intrigued to see that kind of fashion in mainstream big budget blockbuster hence the question
Dominic Green
Wow, and I thought the Wachowskis were fags
Asher Gutierrez
Really, because there was a lot of S&M and fetish imagery in movies in the late 80's and 90's.
Eli Russell
Why would spy wear clothes that are so unique and striking? Spy would probably want to blend into crowd.
Colton James
It wasn't just Trinity
Charles Gomez
For some reason, fictional spies changed from being focused on information and cover identities and who-knows-what-when, and became about guns and martial arts. John Drake is dead, and now all we have left is, I dunno, every 80s action hero.
Alexander Walker
Could you give some examples?
Isaac Edwards
return to tradition

because the writers were being controlled by a dominatrix

Is that true?

CUTE!

How the fuck did a nobody like Chris Nolan manage to get her, the biggest star in the world as of 2000, in his student feature flick??
Justin Carter
Forgot pic : )
Aaron Flores
Carter Wright
He had already made his actual "student feature flick" before it
Asher Long
Imagine how sweaty she must have gotten reshooting the action scenes over and over in all that plastic.
David Martin
Imagine if she made you sniff all that leather against her scrotch. Wouldn't that be weird hahaha
