I remembered Morrison being upset at the Bros, but even then, knowing what I knew, I simply didn't link Invisibles with Matrix. I suppose that just shows that I'm not terribly good at analyzing anything beyond what's directly in front of me.Kenny Shovel said:Well, a hell of a lot of invisibles fans saw the similarities and they didn't need Morrison to point them out. The similarities between characters and themes are really quite striking; similarities that at times are masked by the invisibles being a much more complex and less easily accessible piece of work.
Ah, since they've upped and said they admired Invisibles, then they haven't really got much room to manouevre now, have they? If the Wachowskis had never said anything about the Invisibles, then I'd give them the benefit of a doubt. Since they did... well, I'm pissed now too. How dare the Wachowski brothers not acknowledge the work of (weird, it has to be said) genius of The Invisibles?Kenny Shovel said:It’s also worth noting that before they got pinged by Sopia Stewarts lawsuit claiming plagiarism, they had talked openly about their admiration for ‘The Invisibles’. So maybe, just maybe, the similarities between their film and a comic written several years earlier might be more substantial than an imagined slight.
Hey, Kenny, wanna talk Invisibles?
