COMPREHENSION IS NOT REQUISITE FOR COOPERATION: With The Matrix Revolutions hitting theaters tomorrow, there's one question burning on the lips of at least three or four of the people who read this weblog:
Is Cornel West going to be in the damn movie?

Thanks to the Village Voice's J. Hoberman early review, we have an answer. And it is 'yes'.

Oh, but there's a followup: Does America's favorite Princeton-professor-slash-Sharpton-adviser-slash-"rapper" get to say something so stupid and cliched that you'd think George Lucas had written it? Ergo, concordantly, yes.

How about this doozy: "But what hope can a single vessel have against the entire defense system?"

(It depends, really. How many parsecs would it take the Nebuchadnezzar to complete the Kessel run?)

More to come.

(Did I like Matrix Reloaded? Well, sorta, but others here were more favorable.)
