  Re: Matrix Weapon Tech
 
(...) I actually found myself being very invested in the ultimate fate of the Osiris crew, and I'm undecided as to whether I liked Osiris or the 2R two-parter best. What I do know for sure is that I consider the four Wachowski pieces to be much (...) (21 years ago, 1-Aug-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.off-topic.geek, FTX)

WARNING: I forgot to put a spoiler warning for those of you who have not seen Animatrix or Reloaded yet. (...) No problem. "Osiris" is pretty much just a back story for "Reloaded."
