The Matrix edit

I can't find much information about this being an adventure film. Remember that IMDb is not considered a valid source. I'm reverthing this edit for now, please discuss it before editing it again. Andrzejbanas (talk) 18:52, 9 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

Per the above discussion, I reverted to User:Andrzejbanas's revision. I agree this needs discussion before committing to the change. --Shirik (Questions or Comments?) 21:42, 30 December 2009 (UTC)Reply
Congratulatiosn andrzejbanas, you managed to make Matrix out of the adventure film when it is clearly one one of the most adventurous sci-fi films of the 1990s. 201.43.35.65 (talk) 22:49, 30 December 2009 (UTC)Reply
You say clearly, but that follows under WP:OR. There are people who are born now who could look at this list and not have a clue what adventures film from this decade were like. So nothing like this is 100% obvious to anyone. I've included cites in the action film lists, and they should be carried over to this as well. Cheers.

Also, The book cited did mention it being an adventure film, but from constant and continuous research of the definitions of action films, adventure films, and science fiction films, this should not be in the genre. The citation was not about the film but a quick summary of plot for an unfamiliar reader from an author who's expertise is not in film. Andrzejbanas (talk) 12:17, 14 May 2010 (UTC)Reply
Again, I'd like to bring stronger sources for genre here. In this book is a study of the Matrix and genre referring to it as an action film several times and as a science fiction film as well source. An editor here has pointed out that a source that refers to it as an adventure film, but I'd like to note this is from an expert on theatre, and not film, or genre who is only offering a breif plot summary of the film.
