Ok so you've seen X2. Now are you ready for the Matrix Reloaded!<P>I personally can't wait as I think it's going to blow me away. X2 was full of action but the Matrix stimulates my mind more. I'm looking forward to seeing how Neo's character develops.<BR>Also the Twins look like they will be great characters. I'm looking forward until June too when I might get the Animatrix DVD for my birthday. :)<P><B>DO NOT POST ANY SPOILERS HERE!!</B>

Does downloading 150meg worth of Trailers and then all the AniMartix movies in 1 day classify you as a fan? :D<P>And those twins do look cool, I just want to see where Neo has his big ass fight against you know who :D

Yeah, I'm really looking forward to it. Gonna see it this Saturday. I'm excited about it and the next one. BTW, what's Animatrix?
This is just my two cents.

AniMatrix is 9 anime episodes of the Matrix, But they are set before the first movie and they tell the story of who everything happened. <P>They are really really good, especially if you download the highest res version :D<P><A HREF="http://www.intothematrix.com" TARGET=_blank>AniMatrix</A>

I'm waiting for the DVD of Animatrix to view them all in 1 go on high quality. You can actually see the Matrix in the cinema again here, and the Final Flight of the Osiris is being shown after it! :)

I'm gonna get it. Some facts about it(no spoilers)<P>- it's the most expensive game ever (around $20,000,000!!!!!)<BR>- AFAK it's been directed by the Whakowsky brothers themselves as an 'addon' to the film<BR>- It's said to habe original movie cutscenes implemented.<BR>- The statement was like "You need to watch the film to understand the game and you need to play thhe game to understand the film"

This is just my two cents.

Yup, exactly.<P>BTW, a small correction: The game doesn't use original movie material but they had the movie actors to play special cutscenes for the game.<P>[EDIT: Gee! It's true! You really have to see the movie to understand the game!]<p>[ 22 May 2003: Message edited by: General_Trageton ]

I've just got The Animatrix and it's a must see for any Matrix fan! It really delves into the stories and even reveals the history of the war with the machines. Plus some of it just looks real cool. :)

Oh and I forgot the Reloaded DVD should be out in November before the Revolution begins.<BR>At the moment WB are asking fans which cover they want for it out of these 3.<BR> :p<p>[ 10 June 2003: Message edited by: Ace Antilles ]

I like the last one best, methinks, though the first one is kinda cool.
