New podcast is up. It was a lot to cover on one show but I think it came out well. Hope you learn some new things about the Matrix movies and enjoy my comments.

One of the most memorable set of movies I can remember. Still recall seeing VERY early previews of the stunts on ET. Excellent cast.

I'm going to head out on my walk and listen.

Another great episode. I had a Matrix session the other week and watched all the films 3 nights in a row. Like Rico says on the podcast, if you watch them again you see things you missed before, there is so much in them. The extras on the DVDs are usually excellent too.

Yes, the expanded movie disc sets have some amazing extra features. You see how much work went into these films. I was going to play a little bit of that on the podcast but ran out of time. Oh, and I forgot to mention on the show but I really wanted a coat like Neo wears in the second film. Very cool outfit!

That coat is surprisingly inexpensive...only 129 bucks.

The one down a bit on this page is much nicer and more accurate. And of course more expensive. I think I'll get Lynn to make me one some time.

Just finished listening. Fun show! I'm always so torn on the Matrix movies. The first one was simply amazing then the other two kind of fell flat for me. I remember seeing the second movie with a bunch of friends. At one point Neo gets into yet anothetr fight where he kicks everyone's butt, as it starts I lean over to my buddy Mike and say "You wanna go out for a smoke or something?"

And no...I don't smoke.
