The Wachowskis are Ping wannabes? As in Yuen Woo-Ping, the guy who did the fight choreography for, uh, The Matrix?
I can't believe that you're describing the Matrix as "puffed up with its own earnestness" and in the next paragraph saying that Code 46 "did not seek to impress on its own". Code 46 was unbelievably po-faced and stuffed with its own self-importance. The Matrix had all the importance of a roller-coaster ride, and knew it. But it propelled you to the edge of your seat and kept you there, and that's exactly what Sunshine does.
