I wonder what exactly did cause the Osiris to explode? It didn't look big enough to be a fusion reactor failing (assuming they have them). Air supplies?

Even if we ignore that, there's dialogue suggesting that Zion has repelled previous and less intense invasion attempts within the lifetimes of its current inhabitants.

Well, yes but things don't just explode if they hit the floor at high speed. Anyway, it skidded along a bit beforehand.

My impression was that the Sentinels cut off enough of those pads to make the Osiris fall to the ground, and then some of them managed to get inside and get at whatever power system runs those things.

True enough.

Uh, it's a phrase meaning "even if example X did not exist, we could prove the same with example Y." Or at least it is in my hands.

I believe The Animatrix outdoes and puts to shame the Matrix Reloaded. Where was the Osiris crew was in the movie? If they had not killed them off they should have had a spin off. Final Flight should have been the intro. All the talking slowed the movie. But I do give props to Andy and Larry for doing what they wanna do, maybe revolutions will be better. *********************** Axel Foley: Don't you think I realize what's going on here, miss? Who do you think I am, huh? Don't you think I know that if I was some hotshot from out of town that pulled inside here and you guys made a reservation mistake, I'd be the first one to get a room and I'd be upstairs relaxing right now. But I'm not some hotshot from out of town, I'm a small reporter from "Rolling Stone" magazine that's in town to do an exclusive interview with Michael Jackson that's gonna be picked up by every major magazine in the country. I was gonna call the article "Michael Jackson Is Sitting On Top of the World," but now I think I might as well just call it "Michael Jackson Can Sit On Top of the World Just As Long As He Doesn't Sit in the Beverly Palm Hotel 'Cause There's No Niggers Allowed in There!"

-------------------- Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.
