Matrix Trilogy - Which is your favorite?

[jc480]

Matrix 1, 2 or 3

Which is your favorite?

Matrix 1 - the stage setter. Some severely awesome scenes including the lobby gun battle, the end scene with the agents and numerous pieces of eye candy

Matrix 2 - Various "Demo Material" scenes, some pretty awesome action, some innovative story line additions/special effects (Agent Smith)...the

[Show spoiler]Zion speech by Morpheus and the community dance stuff

was slow and boring unfortunately.

Matrix 3 - Wall to wall action, awesome special effects, more ear candy, more eye candy, more more more...not much to find fault in this one

Matrix is one of those rare movie series where the sequels are unique and are as good, if not better, than the original. Very few movies are able to achieve this.

What is your vote for the best of the three? My vote is for #3....but #1 is within a hair. #2 only suffers from the slowdown in the scenes I mentioned above.
