So, you like THE MATRIX films? Well do I have a gift for you. Warner Brothers has just released an absolutly breathtaking collection that really does justice to the epic scope of the series.

THE ULTIMATE MATRIX COLLECTION is just that, THE ULTIMATE. 10 discs, over 35 hours of bonus materials and new commentaries expose you to the world of THE MATRIX is a way the no one who has not seen these amazing discs could possibly understand.

First up, all the films are presented in amazing 1080p HD and let me tell you, you haven't seen THE MATRIX films until you have seen them in HD. It surpasses the theater experience in my opinion.

It is almost impossble to highlight the special features that are included in the collection as they are so numerous and so large in their scope that it is beyond words. It is safe to say, if there is anything you want to know or anything you want to watch that has to do with THE MATRIX you'll find it here.

Very, very , very complete and really well done THE ULTIMATE MATRIX COLLECTION is one of those things that you just must have sitting on your DVD shelf.

Here are the official breakdowns for the release, get ready to be blown away:

DVD Rom Features

The definitive ten-disc DVD set, The Ultimate Matrix Collection features all three films in the trilogy together for the first time ever with a newly remastered picture and sound for The Matrix. Also included is the companion piece The Matrix Revisited and the best-selling The Animatrix, plus five entirely new DVDs packed solid with brand-new supplemental materials that encompass every aspect of the Matrix universe, including two new audio commentaries on each film, Enter the Matrix video game footage, 106 deep-delving featurettes/ documentaries and much more!

So, you've got all three films in HD, all those special features and a kick ass box to keep it all in. What more could you ask for. Serously though, if you're a fan of the films or just interested in the technology that created them this is a must have for you.

State of the art in every way.
