i loved every one of the film shorts in animatrix!
on a related note....
wouldn't it be awesome if they made a construct like the one in "Matriculated"?
The best story to me is the kid one but i really love the Kids in the house that was just a rosettastone like episode explaining alot of things in the matrix

Up until seeing Seraph, finding out the Oracle is a program, and the Arc appeared in Reloaded, I was still under the influence of the typical Human = good/Machine = bad typical scenario. And even after that I wasn't sure of the Oracles intentions until the end of the trilogy with Sati and the conversation with the Arc.

What sold me was the complete disregard that Trinity and the other Zionites showed for the lives of the humans still inside the Matrix. An elite group that didn't care about ordinary people, that didn't mind if many died just to extract one more redpill, and that would have let the bluepills all die if it meant the Machines would be defeated.
I love them all, but "Kids story" is awesome! Feels just like my former life as a teenager...
I rewatched these last week with my 15 month old in the room. Her eyes were wide during the battle scene between man and machines. I remembered how graphic i thought it was the first time i popped that cd in and quickly turned it off so baby wouldn;t have nightmares of being pulled out of an APU with limbs ripping apart.
Final flight is really a spectacle of CGI. Kid's Story and Detective Story are my favs. Probably because they involve coppertops and learning of the matrix. Alice in wonderland references ftw.
beyond, then detective story, then world record. i love when the agents tell him to slow down.
Wish beyond was a "white hallways" like construct in richland that dropped some lowbie gear.
where you see glitched lights and doors and all that.

Yeah, that would be very cool... great idea... (all this potential... )

I'm sure that the destruction of a few for many isn't a new topic but one taken as a universal virtue that is made 'ok' in the movie. Many bluepills had died. But, should a few perish for the rest of the human race?
But that's the opposite of what they did in the movie -- in the movie it was the destruction of many for a few.
But, should a few perish for the rest of the human race?
A better question to ask Zion and EPN: should the rest of the human race (the bluepills) perish for a few (Zion)?
