Matrix Revolutions Trailer Released
aerojad writes "The new Matrix Revolutions trailer is now available for download (direct link) on the official site. If you have plugin/bandwidth issues, there are also BitTorrent links available. For those wondering, there is more to it than you saw at the end of Reloaded." In related news, an anonymous reader points to the BBC News report that: "The makers of the Matrix films are considering only promoting the third film, Matrix Revolutions, for next year's Oscars. Warners, which produced the films, had considered pushing for both of them to be nominated as a single entry because they were shot on the same 240-day shoot, but the academy refused."
I think I hear a straw gurgling someplace...
"Mr. Anderson, you're the one!
You make bullet time oh so fun!
Mr. Neo I'm ever so fond of you..."
*ducks*
Karma: Chameleon (mostly due to the fact that you come and go).
Wow downloading a commercial for a second rate sci fi sequel! Membership has its advantages! Where do I sign?
Trinity dies at the end, it was in the trailer.
What I really like is that you took this opportunity to flaunt your 21" display. I now have a severe case of Display Envy.
Canadian Cynic, canadian politics is less boring than you
Neo: I know how to disable the matrix.
Morpheus: How Neo?
Neo: Post an article about the trailers on slashdot, and slashdot it!
(Neo posts to slashdot...)
Morpheus: It's working, the matrix is breaking down!
(Now, could someone actually tell me what is in the trailer? I am on cable and I can't get it.)

I'm trying to imagine how miserable shooting that scene in the rain was, especially when you realize it probably wasn't done on the first take.
Wearing all those clothes, which are sopping wet, and that water ruining the shoes, getting into the socks, and you've got to run in it -
Granted, I'm sure the actors got a great paycheck out of it. But every time I watch them running in the rain, I can't help but feel for those poor, wrinkled little toes encased in shoes that are screaming "No - keep the mold away! Save us, Gold Bond!"

Am I the only one who absolutely refuses to watch these trailers?
Am I the only one who absolutely refuses to watch this movie?
grammar-lesson free since 1999. (rescinded - 2005)
Damn bittorrent.
I mean, I'm sure there's some point here.. but:
download rate: 0 k/s
upload rate: 22 k/s
and this from a country where you pay for every byte transmitted. I'm sure there's a "tragedy of the commons" lesson in here somewhere..
kill -9 bittorrent.
The IMAX here at the Zoo is so lame that they won't play it (Because it's not 'educational'), but then again, they bitch about not making enough money... Stupid stupid people.
"I'm also loosing the connection"
Try tightening it then. You didn't by chance mean 'losing' did you?
I agree that the graphics looked bad in the burly brawl.
My explanation: the Matrix itself is getting overloaded when 100 Smith's show up and need to be rendered. When the Matrix renders 100 people in a normal crowd, those 100 people have 100 brains that can be tapped for distributed rendering. But when it renders 100 clones of Smith, there's a bottleneck.
I enjoy the bits where the Matrix simulation gets overstressed, like the Deja Vu scene in the first movie. I'm hoping to see more and more of that as this cycle of the Matrix goes through, well, Ragnarok.

Done, I pressed ALT-4 and I'm being prompted for my username and password, and my Lynx session disappeared, how did you hax0r my system?
OK, you know what? I read all the comments, and it seems everyone was afraid to say this (perhaps to avoid being labeled a fanboy?), but that trailer rocked my world , and I'm not ashamed to admit it.
I can't effin wait to see the end to this.
everything in moderation
But it's the trilogy finale! We can't boycott yet!! I need to know what happens! Is he a machine? Is the matrix inside another matrix? Is it all "just a movie".
:)
Can we get all pissy about the stuff you mentioned after this movie comes out? Ok, awesome. Thanks
It's a glitch in the matrix. Run. Now. Take the door to your right, go down the hallway, go down the stairs, make a left, open the front door, and make a left on Pinecross St. then a right on St. Bernard's, after that, there will be two pills on the counter in the pastry shop on the left. Choose one.
wow, the matrix is awesome when there's no plot or dialogue.
-=tonyt=-
Actually, Trinity was Morpheus, and Neo was Agent Smith. They were all going to a party in Mulholland Drive and then everything got messed up. Whoa!
Checkout this . It's a video of two guys playing table tennis, "Matrix Style". They have performed matrix style effects live on the stage. Really funny stuff !!
..he really likes her cookies, and is inspired by their crunchy goodness to stop trying to take over the world and open a chain of bakeries. 'So, Mr Anderson.. chocolate chip or cherry?'
People complained that the Reloaded trailer contained almost all of the "money shots."
Man, you guys in the US must have seen a totally different edit. I didn't even know there was a hardcore version.
evil math within Nature's Cubic Creation!
You mean your PC was so overloaded that it got blown through the roof at mach 2? Totally heinous, dude.
If I seem short sighted, it is because I stand on the shoulders of midgets
Man, you're so right. They RUINED the LOTR trilogy for me by releasing these stupid books when I was younger and I read them. I mean, the books had almost everything that was in the movies, why would I want to go see the movies now? That made the movies absolutely suck because they were "spoiled".
Let's get one thing perfectly clear, I did not vote for George W Bush, and I do not endorse what he does or says.

Man, Agent Smith looks absolutely crazy in this trailer. I still think he looks better with long hair.
No, he looks better with high heels and a bra.
There are no trails. There are no trees out here.
