Byron: Don't forget the upcoming multi-platform game, 'Enter the Matrix" which has 30 minutes of extra footage filmed exclusively for the game.

The answer to the question "What Is the Matrix?" is: Philip K. Dick's ouvre, boiled down and injected into contemporary action movie format. Dick's estate should really get a royalty for this stuff.

I thought the first Animatrix segment was genius on a level I hadn't seen yet in Hollywood. Brilliant science-fiction. The second one was dissapointing for me. Yeah, the animation was nice. The storyline though was pretty lame, I thought. It struck me as something I'd expect to see in a Matrix Roleplaying chat room on AOL. Pretty girl and super-powerful man duke it out while expressing their love for eachother.. yawn. It seemed like they were making what they thought Americans were expecting the Animatrix to be.. looks like Ninja Scroll, has elements of traditional Japan in it, but for the most part, it's just stylised combat sequences and utlra-violence. Here's hoping the next segment is as inspired as the first one was.

Zac: Sorry, but the first story's more cliche, because it went for the "killing robots out of prejudice which is a reference to the nazis" metaphor crap that's common in sci fi.

I think that we can expect the episodes to be a mixed bag ranging form extreamly good to mediocre at best. But overall the episodes should be helpful to shed light on the Matrix, and the questions that people have about it - which is the intent of the series. It would be nice if they explain why the 'bots don't show up in the modern world though - is it all internal programs?
