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.

    Well, they tried different catch-phrases other than "Whoa!", so those will also be on the discs, including:
    • "Dude!"
    • "Oh man!"
    • "Jinkies!"
    • "What the friggity?!"
    • "Wowzers!"
    • "First post!"

    - 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!

    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.
