Top Scene?

My special effects fav scene is the one in the lobby however the one 1 minute later with the helicopter, and the bullet in the leg was pretty spectacular.

Then I like morpheus speeches, especially the bit about what is real and electrical impulses tothe brain bit - cool.

So many scenes!

There are so many where do i start?

-I like that Start bit how Trinity has that 'scruffle' with the Cops and agent... It's cool how they kill normal people too! (If they are not one of us they are an agent)

-The bit where Neo fights Morpheus (It reminds me of Kheb)

-The lobby part is a favoutite too, and the slow motion bit how Morpheous is running to the chopper.....

-I like the fight at the subway between the Agent and Neo

-And last but not least the bit where Neo gets shot right at the end, and then gets back up (And starts to believe he is 'the one') And kicks the crap out of the Agents....

A favourite quote of mine is simply "Dodge this" -Trinity.

When he get shots and get backs up and then kills the agent, not so sure. I think how he "killed" the agent was a bit weird. Still no idea why the agents ran away, it is not as if they are frightened is it? when they do not actually die (or do they as he is the one).

But i agree with the other selections. The bit inside the power plant is quite cool as well.

Power plant scene is when Neo wakes up from the matrix in the "human power plant".

Oh ok,
Another favourite scene of mine is when Neo awakes in the Real World and we see all of humanity in the litttle 'pods', the graphics are just "astronomical is the right word..."

I was watching this again tonight. I am embarrassed to say that the first time I saw it in a movie theatre, I walked out after 20 minutes - I was bored (sorrysorrysorrysorry). But then I went again, and liked it.

Your right! DODGE THIS!

I hired the Matrix the other night, istayed up all night i watched like five times in a row. Its one of the greatest movies i have ever seen. The SFX are awesome and the storyline is Awesome aswell. I loved this movie. Well my favourite (one of) is the start with trinity. and the gun scene with neo and trinity that is cool and when Neo has that dejavu thing that next bit is cool.

I liked the scene where the chopper went down and Trinity hit the building - great special effects.
