Or even this.

Ah! the Matrilology :D

Ive not even bothered to buy the 3rd one...I love the origional Matrix...I thought part 2 was ok, but it all went silly after that..probably the biggest anticlimax since the Highlander sequals ..I dont think I`ll be spending my hard earned cash on this...although Id be interested to see the `extended` version of Reloaded with the extra 55 mins from the `Enter The Matrix` game in it. A friend of mine played the game and he said that it does tie up a lot of loose ends between reloaded and revolutions

hmmm

I`ve got all 3 plus Matrix Revisited & The Animatrix.

The only new things of interest in this set are the remastered version of the first film (the original transfer was pretty sh*te!) and the extended Reloaded.

But given the fact that the additional footage in Reloaded was originally shot for a bloody video game and not even for the film itself, I don`t imagine it being particularly great!

It`ll be interesting to hear people`s opinions of the extended cut.

The other problem is that the first film will probably still be cut on Region 2 so I`ll stick with my Region 4 version for now.

The chances of me forking out again for this set are about......nil.

I dont want to bang my `I hate the matrix` drum for too much longer, but......

I told myself that i wouldnt buy another Matrix product again after the, quite frankly, criminal 2 disc release of Reloaded. I have never in my life seen such a shabby two disc set and i felt (feel) absolutely cheated. If they were going to save all the good stuff for the inevitable trilogy box set they should have had the decency to release it as a one disc set for a tener.

Ive spent a fiver each for The Matrix and Animatrix and Fifteen!!! on Reloaded, so i`ll be buggered if i spend another 45!

Although, having said that, if no-one i know buys it, i probably will weaken when the price comes down. Why cant blockbusters do special editions/ box sets? Theyv cost me a bloody fortune over the years..............

I felt really let down by the Matrix Reloaded - not bought either sequel and haven`t even *seen* Revolutions, but when this set has been out for ages if it crops up in a sale at a really good price I`ll probably get it, I`m useless at resisting bargains!

The problem with Matrix films 2 & 3 is that they need a huge edit job done on both of them to join them together with loads cut out to make a single second good movie.
