Enter the Matrix

You gotta

trade in Enter the Matrix starring Jada Pinkett Smith.

That I would never trade.

I loved that.

I loved that game so much.

Do you think that game and the kind of multi-platform storytelling that the Matrix sequels, obviously I'm talking animatrix yes there's a great run of comics that also filled in some of the blanks neo uh path of neo and obviously enter the matrix do you think we had peaked as as a society then as a kind of and we peaked to sydney because the olympics had just happened also uh do you think that's when like multi yeah faceted storytelling peaked and we've never been able to come close again

I don't think anything has ever come close to the multi-tiered multimedia experience of The Matrix.

The full motion video...

The Wachowskis dubbed 2003 the Year of the Matrix.

We got the two Matrix sequels released only six months apart, a tie-in game called Enter the Matrix, which included live-action footage filmed by the Wachowskis, and to some, the crown jewel of 2003 was The Animatrix, an animated anthology that teamed up with directors whose resumes included everything from Cowboy Bebop to Eon Flux to Akira.

Welcome, everyone.

I'm Gayfesh.

Isn't that the bad, isn't that the bad one?

Oh, no, you're thinking of Enter the Matrix.

I'm saying-

Oh

Like you want to build up and do the thing, but sometimes you just want to like chill and you know, win the lottery at birth.

Um, Max says, I remember the cheat code screen on Enter the Matrix, and it looked like a program.

Oh, I remember that.

I remember that.
