yeah! head over to THE ANIMATRIX and download the newest release "The Second Renaissance Part 2". if you havn'y been there already get the other 3 as well.
i havn't seen the new one yet cuz from some reason its not working and says i need QuickTime 6 which i have. but if you are not familiar with the animatrix you should check it out. The matrix reloaded will be out soon so creators of the matrix got some of the more famous writers/artists to put together 9 animated shorts that have thier stories in the world of the matrix. they are releaseing one a month and a DVD of all 9 will be released June 3rd.
so far there are now 4 out available for download. "The Second Renaissance Part 1" is my favorite so far because it does back story about how the machines came around and it leads up to how the machines take over. so im psyched to see part 2 which i am guessing is how the machines take of and create the matrix.
the "program" vid is also cool. it has to do with a crew similar to the one from the movie but different characters and it takes place in a training program set in a feudal japan [kinda like "tank, load the jump program."]
and then there is one called "detective story" which is black and white and it takes place within the matrix program. its pretty cool.
so yeah im psyched to see the new matrix, word im a geek. i saw the first one opening night with 2 friends. the next night we each brought 2 more people bringing our group to 9. then the third night we had about 30 people there.
im gonna try to go to reloaded at midnight the night before it opens. so i can ruin it for everyone and a lot of people dont think about going to midnight before.
so yes i suggest you go to www.intothematrix.com to see the animatrix shit.
