Shortly after the release of Matrix Reloaded, it was rumored that Larry Wachowski began to make small public appearances dressed as a woman, using the name Lana Wachowski.[5] In his column, published May 30, 2003, David Poland said "Every indication I have says that Larry Wachowski is now in the process of changing his sex. Dressing in public like a woman, taking female hormones and yes, having a sex change operation." This was further supported by a March 2006 San Francisco Chronicle article on transgender people, which repeated that Larry Wachowski, "has changed his sex and is now living as Lana Wachowski.

more power to him/her I guess but that's just really bizarre. I cant think of a public figure who's ever gone through that radical of a change

Hm, that's just odd. I don't even think it's "bad," it's just kind of unexpected and weird.

You know, for the most part, The Wachowski Siblings wrote a lot of shit. I enjoyed the Matrix series and V for Vendetta, but everything else is terrible.

In that picture I would've guessed the one on the left was the man.

I couldn't stand The Matrix series.

I used to like Matrix, but then I discovered Dark City and The Thirteenth Floor.

Goddammit we just had a thread about this.

Perhaps he wanted to change his identity after he was partly responsible for Matrix 2 and 3. I don't blame the guy...
