    Waste of money. 10 discs just for one decent film among it.
    Don't even get me started on Enter The Matrix.

    It seems a little excessive to have three hours discs for each film and then to include a further four hours of special features on additional discs. And a full disc for purely storyboards and such? There is a point where you are giving way too much information about something. There is no way to sustain interest over that length of time. Especially when the directors aren't going to have anything to say. I could do without fourteen hours of Joel Silver to be quite honest...

    They really are milking it for every last cent...

    And I can sum up all those examinations and special features in one sentence:

    'Well, neo is actually christ....'

    There I just saved you 44.99 :P

    Sure, 'The Matrix' was A-class material (regardless of the K. Reeves "Mr. Wood" factor)... But I found 'Reloaded' and 'Revolutions' both to be pretty darn entertaining movies, even if only for the sheer mastery of cinematic technology and artistry. As for all the extra materials... Always an educational insight, I find.

    I'll see you in 'The Matrix - Online'

    :D

    What I'd like:

    Disc One: The Matrix
    Discs Two - Ten: The Wachowskis and Joel Silver apologising and begging for forgiveness

    I'd buy that.
