Ten-disc 'Matrix' DVD Box Set Planned
squishey writes "The Matrix trilogy is to be released as part of a special ten-disc DVD boxset in time for Christmas, according to the DVD Times.
Out on December 12 and with an RRP of 44.99." Includes a lot of stuff you probably already own, and a few things you might want... like a version of Reloaded with the Enter the Matrix footage included.
Whoa
Does it have a good version?
Ten discs, at ~4.5gb a piece. I wonder how long it will take to rip a DivX of that. As a bad actor once said, "whoa".

Ground Control to Major Tom...
Nice! I'm going to wait for the Super Special Edition though, I hear it will contain a disc titled "Matrix Reloaded Revisited Revamped".
That price seems awfully cheap for a ten disc set though.
... next year we'll have the super platinum deleted scenes 15 disk version, and the following year the titanium unloaded reloaded version with 20 disks...
I suppose waiting for the matrix will be alot like waiting for LoTR-- Gotta sit through all the regular, bronze, gold, platinum, titanium editions to get the best version... I just hate to buy and then rebuy later to get the additional content.

A TEN disc Matrix box set. The geeks really HAVE inherited the earth.
Here comes a bunch of "Matrix sucks" comments. Hurry up, I'm anxious to read them!!
"Derp de derp."
Does it come in a wooden box?
I believe that this box set will also include the 30 minute long death footage of Trinity that was cut for 'consistency'
"Neo"
"Yes"
"Lets act out MacBeth before I die.....one last time!"
"Hark!"
In this version, Greedo "whoas" first. And some of the dialog has been 3d rendered.
you obviously haven't seen precursors to one other film series..
world was created 5 seconds before this post as it is.
- A version of Reloaded that doesn't suck
- A version of Revolutions that doesn't suck horribly
- An ending not designed to make one violently ill
- A box set that comes with two free movie tickets to any other movie, as a means of apologizing for the money wasted on Reloaded
- Rather then taking up all this space, a box set that only features stuff worth watching.
Oh wait, we already have that last one. Its called the first movie!
No-one can tell you what the region 1 price is, you have to see it for yourself.
Omnis amans amens
But I believe an extension to your house will be required to store the LOTR special edition discs.
Do not try to read the dupe, thats impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth
What truth?
There is no dupe
I can't wait to watch "The Making of 'The Making of the Matrix'".
Ok.
20 Hours of Matrix footage + 4 hours of sleep a day would work out to a pretty nice punishment for murderers.
Of course, the Trinity death scene would be removed due to 8th amendment considerations.
"Sig free in '03!"
There was a second one?
There is no region.
The Matrix Reloaded: New Cut With 55 Minutes Of New Footage Inserted Back Into The Film
Does this mean that we'll finally be able to see the end of the "Cavern Dance" party??? I've been wondering how that turned out...
Do you believe the price in region 2 has anything to do with the price in region 1? Do you really think that's air you're breathing?
(yeah I know I messed up that quote, I haven't seen the movie in years)
UKP and Yen support has been fixed in Slash CVS 'cos I reported it after getting annoyed.
...
Dunno if I'd want to pay that much to get anything that includes Matrix Revolutions
Two of the disks are composed entirely of the deleted portions of the Trinity death sequence.
You forgot this one:
"Excellent!" (followed by a riff on the air-guitar.)
You forgot when they were trying out Snoop Dogg for the part:
Fo-Shizzle!

One would presume that it is MS BASIC on ROM. I can finally get rid of those "NO ROM BASIC" errors on boot!
I guess that explains why Smith was able to spread to every other system in the Matrix, and why it has to be reloaded so damned often.
Damn you Gates!

The second and third matrix films were a work of pure genius. It was just so subtle you guys didnt see it... you see the W. Bros. were simply elaborating on the 'black cat concept' in the first film....
It worked on me anyway, at first I believed I had watched two totally shit movies, after much deliberation I decided it was actually the exact same shit twice!
Andross reveals his true form.
Been there, done that.
Dunno if I'd want to pay that much to get anything that includes Matrix Revolutions ...
;-)
Ditto. I might even be tempted to pay to NOT get it

I think Gettysburg had an intermission.
Yeah, seriously. The only Matrix I recall is the original. What are these sequels people keep talking about?

By the end of that scen I was mentally screaming for her to die.

Doesnt matter. In hongkong it is $2 - Irrespective of the conversion rates.
I didn't want to see the third one either but those bastards at Aeromexico forced me to watch it during my flight back to Paris.
I listened to music during most of the movie though. That showed em.

Yeah I learned that from Benny Hill, too.

Matrix Reloaded Extended Version - New Cut With 55 Minutes Of New Footage Inserted Back Into The Film
34 minutes of which will probably be an extension to the original "Dance Party Zion".
*long shudder*
Neo is the 1
Matrix exited with error code 1
Only two disks? Where will they fit in the part where she lectures Neo on the finer points of Keynesian economic theory?
Geez, after five minutes of that craptacular monologue half of the theater was yelling "Come on, die already!"
How many DBZ characters does it take to screw in a light bulb?
Only one, but it takes three episodes.

But of course we must honor the best quotes from each of the three movies:
The Matrix:
Context: Morpheus jumps a massive gap between two skyscrapers
Neo: Whoa.
Reloaded:
Context: Neo throws a smith out of the battle, where he lands, hard.
Smith: More!
More context: (More smiths charge in)
Revolutions:
Context: Neo runs out of the train station, off to the left, and we see him come back into the train station on the right.
Neo: Shit!
That sums up the three movies, and also the main reactions that this MATRIX thing seems to be inspired by:
Woah!
More!!
Shit!!!

Dear aunt, let's set so double the killer delete select all
Maybe that's my fault. I didn't enter the movie theatre HIGH.
Andy? Is that you?
Oh Man, if I could get a version without those 80's guitars in it, I would be so happy. Every time something that should have been stirring or emotional occurs, Toto comes in with those damn guitars to take away all my enjoyment
Canadians call both of them pound signs. Also there is a sign for snooty british people that call Canadians americans, it is an extended middle finger .
