Matrix (favorite scene in HD)?

Lobby scene.

Fight scene in the foyer of the mansion in reloaded. Very elegent layout for such a brutal fight!

Highway chase, all the way.

While there are a lot of scenes in the latter two films that take the cake for visual impressiveness over the first film, only the first film lacks the self-smugness and over-the-top goth look that completely destroys any sense of believability or real seriousness in the sequels.


The last two sure are nice CGI tech demos though. I just watched SWIII and while it might be more impressive visually at times, at least I never laughed at the plights of characters in the Matrix films.

Definitely the lobby scene!

Which one is the chateau scene? I'm blanking on it, I guess.

I believe the scene with the Miro Vingi (phonetic spelling) and his henchmen, with the two sets of stairs and the crazy weapons, people flying up and down from the balcony, should look pretty sweet...

I didn't see this one on the pole,but


I love the Trinity scene of her jumping out of the window shooting her way to certain doom


Thats the one I am going to be running a loop,and freezing..

I didn't think the trinity scene was long enough. But the cloe up on her face is going to look amazing.


The scene with the pole and smiths is the burly brawl.

Gotta admit I haven't seen the original Matrix since I got rid of Warner's cardboard snapper DVD edition years ago, I specifically skipped the DVD re-issues of all the films because I knew one day...HD.

Im looking forward to most of the movie.. but the highway scene is my favorite.. lobby seq a very close second and battle for zion 3rd.


The club hell scene with the upside down guys could have been great, but it was waaaaayyyyy too short.

Hey how about the Morpheus rescue in the Matrix, that's going to look F...ing sick....Oh so many I don't think I am going to watch it at first,but jump from scene to scene....

The helicopter crash will test out the compression on HD. With all the glass shattering.


Also, the sound will be a lot different here because of the crappy 384kbps DD track on the original SD-DVD release. Hearing it in TruHD will be marvelous..

Oy!!!! Its the 11th how is everyone getting it so early!
