Hey, where'd my spoon go?

I went up to Sandy and saw The Matrix Reloaded today with Ty and the gang. It’s probably something I wouldn’t have seen until it came out on DVD if I hadn’t gone up with those guys, but I’m glad I got to see it in a decent theater. I was surprised to see Cornel West in it, especially since I didn’t notice any other cameos. The thing that really bugged me about the movie, though, was the goddamned General Motors commercial in the middle of it. Through the entire freeway scene, the only non-GM vehicles were the semis–at least I don’t think they were made by GM. In two of the really wide shots, I noticed a BMW and an old RX-7, but not a single Ford, not even a Crown Victoria police car. Surprising, since the car they drove in the first movie was a Lincoln Continental.
