Ask them yourself. Yeah, over here (in the UK) we had to wait a week or so after the US release to see it. However, Revolutions will be released worldwide at the same time. I got the DVD the other day (jeez, nearly a week ago now) - watched it the night I got it, and then had a Matrix evening last Saturday with some mates. We watched The Matrix, then Final Flight, then Reloaded - finished off with the remaining Animatrix episodes

Ask them yourself. Yep, we had to wait a whole week after the USA and I still have nightmares. ='( Got the Reloaded DVD the day it came out, and I've watched it about 4 or 5 times already. I know I'm sad, but I don't care. I got the special HMV Trinity slip case too - very nice. My antisipation for Revolutions has grown tenfold now. *drools*

leXX Posted October 15, 2003 Posted October 15, 2003 The HMV slipcase is a choice of these: Basically it's just a cardboard cover for the normal DVD case (but highly collectable). And my children are NEVER neglected.
Tesla Posted October 15, 2003 Posted October 15, 2003 Are they like Special Edition or Limited Edition or just an excuse for HMV to get people to buy it from them ?? If it is, doesn't look to great, just the posters sized down and slapped on a DVD case Whats the back look like ?
leXX Posted October 15, 2003 Posted October 15, 2003 Yes, they are HMV exclusive, and yes, it's just the poster, and yes it's just a way to get you to buy the DVD from them. The back is the same as the normal DVD. Like I said, it's just a cardboard cover for the DVD, nothing special, but, seeing as you can only get them from HMV, they will be highly collectable.
Tesla Posted October 15, 2003 Posted October 15, 2003 Oh, ok. Meh, i have the normal one, and im happy.
Sivy Posted October 15, 2003 Posted October 15, 2003 i got the same thing when i bought spider-man from hmv, got a nice exclusive sleeve and a free CD with a couple of songs from the soundtrack. i would of got reloaded from hmv if i had known, but i pre-ordered it from somewhere else and got 3 free posters (the same that exclusive sleeves have)
jokemaster Posted October 15, 2003 Posted October 15, 2003 Are the boxes still cardboard? And is Lexx's av a picture of her when her kids were new borns and cried all night? *runs*

StormHammer Posted October 15, 2003 Posted October 15, 2003 Well, I only just rented the video and watched Reloaded yesterday for the first time. It's a bit like the first one...lots of action, lots of special Fx...skimpy plot. It also seemed more disjointed than the original. I think some of the characterisation has improved though, which is a big plus. But it has to be said...BAD ending. I thought it was a very weak ending.
Surfnshannon Posted October 15, 2003 Posted October 15, 2003 Okay guys - I was watching my Reloaded DVD and in the scene where we first meet the guy who likes to talk french, the renegade program guy he is talking to the guy below and he is taken away by a guard before Neo and Everyone start talking to the French dude. So my question is who is this guy...here is a pic of him that they had on the Revolutions website...from the new movie
Sivy Posted October 15, 2003 Posted October 15, 2003 *shrugs* dunno, looks like we're going to find out though. maybe the little girl is the 'mother' of the matrix
toms Posted October 15, 2003 Posted October 15, 2003 probably just another program that neo rescues from the french guy.

Well, I was never really a big fan of The Matrix. Didn't have very high hopes for Reloaded either - and when I saw it I really didn't like it. Then I saw it again (after having just seen The Matrix) and I found myself noticing a lot of things I had never seen before. I began to go deeper into the philosophical aspect of it, and really began enjoying the films on a much deeper level (and many other levels too). Now I really enjoy both the films, and am looking forward to Revolutions
Pedro The Hutt Posted October 15, 2003 Posted October 15, 2003 The first thing that popped to my mind when I saw that photo was "That must be Sallah's brother-in-law whom he mentions in The Last Crusade"
Writer Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 I'm a little behind your schedule here. I just saw the Matrix for the first time on Monday night and will see Reloaded tonight. need I say more? Oh yes, GO ME!!
toms Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 it will be interesting to see when Revolutions comes out whether all these deep phillosophical and religious interpretations that everyone has read into it are actually real and come into play in the final one, or whether it is just a lot of desperate fanboys attempting to justify a jumbled, simple plot as being much deeper than it actually is. At the moment im not sure, and i'll definately watch the last one to find out, but i think that so much has been read into and speculated about reloaded that the actually "truth" is likely to be a bit of a disappointment. suppose we will find out soon...
Sivy Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 http://www.thematrix.com has got some new revolutions photos this one is pretty cool...
Lost Welshman Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 Siv, Notice how that one says Agent Smith? Instead of just Smith. Does this mean Neo is going to be fighting the original? Cool. I also saw the pic of them getting ready to fight... Just like old times I'll post it now:

Boba Rhett Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 My guess is that he's fighting the, "original" one that's dialing in as well.
Lost Welshman Posted October 16, 2003 Posted October 16, 2003 I've been looking around. It looks like there is going to be a "super" brawl between Neo and Smith. Apparently the original smith has cool powers like Neo. He can fly! Not sure if this is true, or why if it is. I can't wait for this film!
