What is the Matrix?
This time yesterday, I was watching The Matrix Reloaded. I am extremely jealous of my past self. As for the movie, well I loved it. Some interesting plot-stuff, but that's not really the point - this is an action spectacular second to none. What you see in the trailer is merely the tip of the iceberg, just a peek at what are easily the most impressive effects sequences ever seen. I won't say any more to avoid a painful death at the hands of those who haven't seen it yet, but will remind them to stick around for a preview of Revolutions after the credits.
In related news, I caught the world television premiere of one of the Anmatrix shorts - Final Flight of the Osiris - on five. It's a neat little bit of backplot just before Reloaded, and is as nice a piece of CG realism as I've seen, worked on by the same folks who did the pretty but plotless Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within. I've already watched the four freebies on the website and am looking forward to the DVD due out in a couple of weeks.
Question now is, can I survive until 7th November?
