<div class="IPBDescription">...it has the best Matrix short movie.</div> A lot of people have heard of www.theanimatrix.com
It's an extension of the matrix universe, with some animated films (bout 10 minutes each), that are close in style to anime. I've watched the 2 they've already released, and found them to be pretty cool.
So, this past Friday, a friend of mine is in town, and we decide to catch the movie DreamCatcher. We soon find out that we get to exclusively (exclusive to this movie)view another Matrix short film from theanimatrix.com, except it's entirely CG.
It's called "The Last Flight of the Osirus". I won't give it away, but I have to say that the CG quality is that of Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within.
I think this film was also 10 minutes long, although I didn't really keep time. Regardless, it is friggin amazing. If you liked the original Matrix, you'll cream your shorts watching this and reveling in anticipation for May 15th.

    I find it funny they have to bait a movie with the trailer to get people to see it ...

    That said, the movie didn't sound good enough that I'd pay $8 to see the teaser. (:

    You can also find Flight of Osiris on Kazaa.

    Yeah. I agree with Silver Fox, but when I went to the movie, I didn't know about the trailer. It was a pleasant surpise.
    And whatever you find on Kazaa is a short preview of the actual Final Flight of Osirus. And it has quite a bit of the action cut out of it.

    don't get me wrong, dreamcatcher was good, but the book was FAR better.

    Do you know who directed The Last Flight of the Osirus?

    Cuz if it's the same guy who did Program, I won't bother seeing it.

    Yes, the book was much better, and the movie made alot more sense if you've read the book. Nonetheless, Dreamcatcher was excellent. The initial introductions of the 4 main characters played out exactly like they did in the book (except for Beavers <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> )

    Yeah its kinda sad they advertised the trailer more then the movie, but it deserved it <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Any files you see on Kazaa claiming to be FFotO are fakes, I've downloaded most of em and they are just Animatrix episodes renamed. And I expected TMD to be all over that trailer <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
