Is it this one?

Phanguye · Jan 26, 2003, 08:24 PM

best commercial so far... i like when the agent is jumping on the hoods of the moving cars

Jansar · Jan 26, 2003, 09:05 PM

I can't wait until the Neo vs. 100 Agent Smiths fight scene.

LegendaryPinkOx · Jan 26, 2003, 09:24 PM

hope the soundtrack is as good as the last

xyber233 · Jan 26, 2003, 09:35 PM

best part of the super bowl so far

mitchell_pgh · Jan 26, 2003, 10:30 PM

Notice how NOBODY has made a high quality Matrix screensaver for OS X. With OpenGL, shouldn't they be able to make one JUST LIKE the movie?

The only one I have seen out there is 2D, where the one on the movie is very 3D...

Just my 2�

you all are mistaken, this is the one you refer to: the one above is old

get the hig quliaty, it may be 24MB, but it is worth it, no?

MikeM33 · Jan 26, 2003, 11:26 PM

Nebagakid, I'm just curious here, why did you post the same link three times? Besides, that sized version was in the link that xyber233 provided. I find that size simply will not play back well on my old G3/266 here, so I have to watch the smallest version (which plays back perfectly).

Not everyone has a screaming fast processor.

None of them in that pic are real. It's the one coming from above that you have to look out for.

Heres some more screen shots:

Thanks for the link. Yes, the quality is AWESOME!

MindFad · Jan 27, 2003, 01:03 AM

Effects look to be kick-ass. Except for that shot wher ethe agent smashes the car. Some of the frames in that shot the agent really sticks out wrong lighting-wise, IMO. Hard to pull off, but I think it could have been done a little better. Not that you'll be able to look at it frame-byframe in the theatre. I'm not bitching, so don't yell at me. I know you people!

So wait, it's two movies? I'm confused. Why are there two titles? I knew there were two more coming out, but they're going to come out at the same time, or what? Someone straighten this out for me? Thanks.

The first sequel is coming out in May. The second sequal, thus the third movie, is coming out in November. The two movies were shot at the same time.

That car shot looks incredibly fake, if you ask me. Other pics just look incredible.

MindFad · Jan 27, 2003, 01:21 AM

Ahhhh, OK. Very cool. Thanks. They should be entertaining. I liked the first one. Cool movie.

That's not a bad one, but I think he's referring to a screensaver that travels through the glyphs, like the opening scene of the movie. I haven't seen a screensaver like that yet.

xtal · Jan 27, 2003, 01:40 AM

This is going to be a really fun movie. Not necessarily one that will make you think too hard, but man, it'll be a rush!

Can't wait!

MacAgent · Jan 27, 2003, 02:03 PM

Actually, I think the car shot looks great, except for the shadows in a few frames, but as said above...you won't be watching it frame by frame in the theater.

No, I noticed the fakeness immediately in the trailer aired yesterday. Something about the timing of his jump, and the resistance offered by the car.

Hopefully they'll clean that up before May, like the Fast and the Furious removed the ramp visible in the trailer when the muscle car at the end flipped over the truck

nonhuman · Jan 27, 2003, 04:30 PM

Now that is a damned good looking movie. I really like the car shot. Perhaps I have found myself a new desktop.

i agree, i saw it too but i wonder if it's the movie effects or just my mind refusing to believe physics of the shot..

technically, speaking...since they are in the Matrix...the agent can bend time to make the car slow to his jump and etc. sort of like a "deja vu" in the first movie

Thats exactly it, its so "impossible" no matter how good it looks it will always feel and maybe "Look" wrong.

Anomalous · Jan 27, 2003, 06:02 PM

I am really excited about The Matrix sequel(s), and I was excited to see the commercial even though I don't watch football, but I hope it doesn't give away too much.

Watch out, Neo: Elrond is attacking!

Mediaman_12 · Jan 27, 2003, 06:54 PM

These Trailers are in Quicktime.
So why no link from Apples QT trailer page?
They have a special 'Superbowl' section at the moment, with The Hulk and Bruce Almighty(?) in it.

Most likely cuz the wb, or who ever, wants a count of the hits / they are fully capable of posting it them selves.

Apple got the First teaser after it was on the website for awhile.
