They are both as unrealistic, very unrealistic. For example, saying that the LOTR is more realistic than the Matrix is like saying 1 + 1 = 3 is more realistic than 2 + 2 = 5, IMHO. :roll:

I dotn get it: Matrix is 100% realistic. If you dotn get it you simply are stupid and I wont reply to try and explain.

LoTR is played in a fantasy world, since it doesn´t try to occour in our world, how can it be unrealistic. Well, it takes place on earth, yes, but not the way it is today.

Like some ppl dotn like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. They say, you cant jump like that. YOU ARE STUPID, the film does not occour in the world as we know it. So, that is nothign you can complain about. However many other actionmovies who is taken place in modern america with similar stunts could be blamed in this way. I hope you understood me. Otherwise I wont explain again.

I kind of agree, it is not supposed portrait OUR real world. I always think of it as kind of symbolic language/out of this world.
Anyway I voted for the matrix, because the CG looks crappier than LOTR. ^^

I think the point with this poll is not what is most unrealistic in the sense you are talking about but what is most unrealistic to happen in our world. Scientificly i don't think anything like lotr is likely to happenen because many of the animals in that world is only useful in slavery like the dakr side uses some of the animals. But The matrix can be real some day some scientists actuly belives that we live in a matrix, what i don't think is that machines will get inteligent and rule the world.

Juski, I think you are mistaken. Some animals are only used in slavery of the dark side? Then what is Cows, Pigs etc, free of will to be slaves of the Good Side?

We are the dark side, we are evil. They are our slaves, they are bread for one purpose, feed us. What´s so unrealistic with it in LotR when it is a part of every day life here in OUR world?

you got a point there didn't think that we enslaving the animals can effect their evvolving

but i still think matrix is more realistic, there is even scientists that say we live in a matriw today, but i don't go that far.

"leader status in the Elma against-the-system underground" - Abula

me do another dig up now =D

LOTR is unrealistic because it got magic stuff and such, and no serious person would be live in that crap.

The Matrix is totally realistic because, they is in a computer made world and what limitations do computer techology have? And if you say the story is unrealistic, just look at LOTR!

It's supposed to be freaking hilarious. Well I thought it was anyway.
Was it cast for the mass who burn and toil?
Or for the vultures who thirst for blood and oil?
