Slavdogg, thanks for the link and the contribution to my job security. :P
More bits of Matrix info from the inside...
New trailer to be shown during the Superbowl, and we're stress-testing the servers today to make sure the inevitable surge in traffic to the site isn't going to blow 'em up.
On February 7th, they'll be releasing the trailers for "The Animatrix," Matrix Anime -- which looks pretty damned interesting. God damn, but there are some talented bastards out there!
Re: Matrix websites...
We're almost finished with the localized International versions of the site; I think there are 16 different languages (I did the Italian site, which will eventually be located at
http://www.matrixfilm.it -- til that goes live, I believe that URL will redirect to the US site), including Finnish, Norwegian, Swedish, Korean, Japanese, Chinese, German, Spanish (both for Spain and Latin America), French and a few more I can't remember off the top of my head. Some will have more features in the native language than others.
I can't wait to see the movie... it looks every bit as good as the first (how many sequels can boast that?). I, who would usually rather suffer having hatpins stuck in my eyes than visit a theatre to watch a film, will most likely make it a point to see this one on the big screen. I may even be able to stay awake til the end (theatres are usually too freakin' cold, and I fall asleep no matter how good the movie is... which is why I don't bother wasting $9 for a ticket).
And after "Reloaded," there'll be "Revolutions."
What is the Matrix? A damned profitable franchise, that's what!!!
