The Matrix

Main Topics

• The Matrix
  • We begin our dive of The Matrix, the original and still best of the series. We review the film and discuss all the things it does to further the action genre.
• The Matrix Reloaded
  • The follow up to the original film is a bit of a mess. We take a look and review the film, trying to pinpoint where things might have gone off the rails a bit.
• The Matrix Revolutions
  • If the second film is a bit of mess, the third film is a complete disaster. What went so horribly wrong? Let's take a look.
• The Animatrix
  • Finally, we review the whole series of anime shorts that were released around the same time as films two and three for the series. Let's take a dive and see how all these stack up.

Further Discussion:

• Thoughts on a Matrix Reboot: With Hollywood discussing relaunching, even rebooting, The Matrix, we play a little thought experiment and try to come up with a way that could work.
• Thoughts on the Upcoming The Matrix Sequel: Apparently a sequel to the series really is happening. That's probably not such a grat idea...
