    That reminds me of how Will Smith turned down Neo in The Matrix because he thought Wild Wild West was the safer bet.

      He would have been an awful Neo. Bullet dodged for everyone.

        Honestly, the only good decision he’s made lately was to not appear in the Independence Day sequel.

      Honestly though, I agree with him. WWW definitely is the safer bet on paper. But safer doesn’t mean foolproof, and the risky ventures sometimes are the most profitable. Making the worse move doesn’t necessarily mean you made the incorrect one.

            You’re going to enjoy this, I think (ignore the titles of the videos, this is definitely what @[email protected] was referring to, and the context makes the bit about WWW so much better:

                It seems like my client removed the ability to edit? I can’t find it, anyway.

                Regardless, that was entertaining. Thank you for the links.

      Yeah, but in the third act he got to fight a giant spider. Do you know anything about spiders? They’re the fiercest killers in the insect kingdom.
