And don't mention the Matrix...The Matrix...The Matrix...gahhhh!
I dont have a clear answer to this, like I dont know whats entertaining with humor... But I guess the way people move and interact with the enviroment have a certain beauty to it. Like a ballet or something. I dont know why such movies usally feature violence and not some other activity. (Although I've actually seen one similar movie about football ) But it could be out of habit, or you can be rather imaginative when it comes to violence (unlike football the rules arent especially strict) But your guess is as good as mine here.
