»What was the best Animatrix episode?«

"Final Flight of the Osiris" is the best episode on that DVD. It is fun to watch and feels like a part of the movies.

I didnt notice this at first but there is something unusual in 'A Detective Story'. On the train, when the agents enter the carrage just after Trinity leaves, one agent has a red flashing light on one eye for half a second. This is not reflection because he does not move and while it could be because the train is moving, its not very likely. What makes it the most unusual is that most of this film is in black and white and so anything in colour must be regarded as delibirately meaningful.

It wasnt the agent it was the detective, when he was being bugged in the eye

No, thats not the part i was talking about. watch it again, its the scene just after trinity leaves.

Still nothing, which agent is it

Trinity jumps out window, we see outside view of train, agent opens door, agent moves his head a little, red flashing light on his right eye, he walks in and continues his search, other agents walk in and follow.

I saw it this time, i think it is scanning the carrige

Yeah probably. Just think its unusual, agents dont normaly do that. Plus he did a pretty shitty job of it lol.

Yeah

I love that story. Maybe because it's in black and white, I find it very wierd in way, but that's just me.

its more moody than colour, like sin city

I don't really like the Animatrix at all, so I don't have a favorite episode either.

sorry guys but maybe you didn't see the best animatrix yet!
Go on ratrixhero.com now to see the brand new animated short film: "RATRIX HERO".

wel to me hands down Final Flight of the Osiris was the best.

The Second Renaissance is definately my favourite (both parts). It's brilliant just for all the great lines, the most well-chosen I've ever seen/heard.
And the music... I SO hate it that there's no score by Don Davis for the Animatrix, the piece played at the end of Second Renaissance Part 2 is so WHOA, I'm trying to play it with my synthesizer on my own now.

well i liked that one too but FFOTO was the best hands down

Hm, I found FFOTO a bit strange... The quite long "introduction" (at least it looks like that to me) makes me get a feeling that it's gonna be longer. And compared to the other episodes it's too straight forward for my liking... But from a graphic point of view it's top of course, "make no mistake about that".

so what exactly r u saying i dont understand.

I just would have expected it to be longer after the kinda epic fighting scene in the beginning.

o i c. well i liked it as it was, not to much not to little but enough to make me love it.

I liked Beyond. especcialy the part of the lightbulb.

I also liked the one of the athlete.

And kid`s story was ok, but i really liked more the animation on that one than the story.


The Red truck in beyond SUCKED

Program is another good one. the fighting is great.

i liked program, deffinatly would like to see more manga based matrix movies.

yeah everyone loved program, it was the second best animatrix production.

I Couldn't do it, i tried, but i couldn't read through all that.

Here's my Opionion:

I Loved Them All And I Will Defend each of them, cuz animatrix was my favorite movie. Ok, Let's Begin.

Final Flight Of The Osiris : The Begin Scene Was sofa-king Sweet. I Mean Strip Sword Fight, Thats Bad Ass. Plus It Explains The Whole Other 2 Movies. I Mean Niobe Says Osiris, So You Would Either Have To Watch This, Or Play Enter The Matrix.

Second Renaissance, Part 1 : Ummm, A look into the future if you ask me. It shows why prejudice can screw us over. Also, dare i say it, It gave me a World War Two Complex. I mean thats what we did to germany, and BAM. But unlike Germany, We couldn't defeat the machines.

Second Renaissance, Part 2 : Ok, say we isolated the machines, we should've let off there. But nope, we were still being gay about it. (side note: Funny Thing, We Gave The Machines The Middle East, I Thought That Was Funny...) But it showed us that it was our own fault for being imprisoned.

Program : very good animation coming from an anime fan. But overall it was a test to make sure there was no more "cypher" cases.

Detective Story : I Can See Myself in that detective. Looking for trinity. It was a good story though, and it shows that anyone can be jack-out, but it's dangerous.

Beyond : I would kill to have a place like this. This shows that even the matrix has glitches. Awesome Idea!

Matriculated : Ok, You all need to STFU about this. It was very good, and it shows that not all machines hate humans.(...kinda like WWII and the Jews) But in the end, the girl thinks the machine was trying to kill her in the end, which shows the trust involved. Machines fight machines is a good defense too.

World Record : This one was good at the whole rule breaking thing. However, It showed us that not only do you not have to be unplugged to break the matrix rules, but anyone can.

Kid's Story : I like this one alot, and i HATED Kid in Reloaded, although his speech to Locke did touch me...but it tells the story of kid, and why neo seems to be annoyed because he didn't do anything

BRING THE HATE MAIL n00bs!
