The Matrix (1999) Official Trailer #1 - Sci-Fi Action Movie 

*is

It's quite outstanding but it was technically very much a product of 80s/90s cyberpunk. Most of the stuff in the movie was already common currency in comics, books, anime. Wachowskis were big fans of things like Serial Experiment Lain and The Invisibles

King Nothing tf do you mean complex movies are made even from the past

Descartes is!

Way ahead of its time.

👍

@Shark Attack it is the truth that he is talking about... What do you understand

@@invitation9277 Double meaning: 1) Is for Neo to enter the matrix and see it for himself 2) is for us to enter the theater and see the movie

Agree. Brilliant

Yes.

It was their whole marketing shtick.

Have you seen the sequels? I am generally curious to hear what you think of them.

I still haven't seen this and I'm 39. When this movie came out , I was out partying and on drugs living the fast life. Fast forward to 2021, My coworker told me about this new Matrix movie with excitement and I told I have never even seen the matrix trilogy at all and he looked at me like I was living under a rock. He said I have to see it before he can tell me anything about it. So you think it's worth it??

@Chuck Norris! Stop putting it off and get it watched. You won’t be disappointed

@@jmoorhouse6317 I will now. I just bought all 4 movie collection from Walmart blu ray. Just convinced the whole family to watch it with me when I get back home from work. Thanks bro

I’m not keen on the sequels but the first one is a classic

Nope, he sure has a pencil.

I nerded out over that line in Parabellum!

Is Real In John Wick , guns lots of gun

at exactly 1 min 20 sec of each trailer...

Dude, that dog!

My mom was the same way! She couldn't stop talking about this movie! Loved it as a 10 year old.

He sounds a great dad, mine left us when I was 5 :(

@@Our_feral_life nasty fak

I remember seeing this with dad also and discussing it afterwords. Had no idea what we were getting into when we got our tickets.

Lol same

absolutely agree

Yep. Same here.

I waching this movie ober 50 times...

Cause movie is based on real life .

I spent a week in Mojave with some people I met 2 days before. Best week of my life. One of the guys told me to read this book which reminded me of The Matrix movie but with more information. And it changed my life…so I’m paying it forward: “Man Being Volume 1: The Transmission”. It covers everything from time travel, dreams, death, the afterlife, reincarnation, extraterrestrials, portals and gateways, Vatican and Renaissance secrets, Ancient civilizations, Lemuria, Atlantis, Jesus, Sinai, Egyptians and the Pyramids, Hebrew letters, etc. Wild read. Best I’ve had in years. Highly recommend it.

yep, and they won't have any of that in the new movie, it'll be all cool effects and making everything look hollywood

@@Tyler-ko8dp Idk about that. Have you seen the new trailer? There's a lot of deliberate parallels. I imagine it's gonna be making a commentary on the nature of remakes. Especially with discount Morpheus being in it (the actor is talented, but I'm pretty sure the character is there as a construct).

@@writershard5065 saying its discount morpheus is a little misleading. In the trilogy it was talking about how reincarnation happens so it's just another version of him.

@Mike Lupo dude I agree there were masterpieces action scenes in MATRIX action sequence happens coz dere is always a reason gr8r the reason gr8r action sequence it's philosophy is soul of the movie which were deep even applies in real world MATRIX movie givs you a glimpse of the future if machines takes over it is only movie which gave me fear and excitement at the same time

I think new movie will be all about action not philosophy

Dark City..

Dark city was made in 1998...

The year I was born

And i was born lol. 😀

Don't forget Spongebob, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (book), POkemon Gold and Silver (if you lived in Japan), Digimon, and Disney's animated Tarzan,

THE MOVIES THAT REVOLUTIONIZED SPECIAL EFFECTS.

Secret Agent Michael Lee no they are just best science fiction

don't forget blade

Hi does anybody no the music in the movies about 1.35 mins in please

colin barnsley Enigma - the eyes of truth

Is there any-one-thing from the film that you want to incorporate into your movies?

You didn’t get scared by the strong violence?

@@RB01.10 No. I was old enough to know it was fake, so it didn’t really affect me.

Good for you, please write a decent movie.

@@MorriganReadshow is school

Thats crazy. When your art teacher and church priest are both preaching about it & getting you to watch it, you know its something big! I missed it in cinemas since I was too young, but my Dad was raving about it for ages and when it came on TV it was one of the rare times he let my brother and I stay up late to watch it. Mind blowing, I still remember that night fondly!

Yep, my philosophy teacher also talked about it.

@@Alex_ADEdge the matrix is the gospel from the Bible but in science fiction. Proof yourself.

While this Is definitely the best in the series, *should have ended here but u know, Marketing. Yet if you really watch this movie, Is only really good in the beginning, *its opening. Morpheus is really the only good character and the actor in this film is who carries it. I would argue the film is really about Morpheus. Who opens the door for Neo? Who is the one REALLY being saved? And in the end, the climax hinges on rescuing Morpheus. Seriously rewatch it. All his scenes of dialog are all that move the plot. This films fatal flaw, is the "oracle" So stupid, everything was fine until her. She *rather the machine, Is the only character that Morpheus reverences for no logical reason. The oracle character I believe was a way of adding "mysticism" Something it didn't need. And her character proves useless, as it's supposedly a prophet, yet the prediction of saying Neo isn't the one proves wrong in the end. Useless scenes/dialog. Otherwise the film is Excellent for its time, but decent in age, imo.

Lucky my teachers never put on a movie for us she or he really liked to show us

This movie didnt do good in theatres. So, no. The trailer failed to sell. I personally liked it. But i was a weird kid to begin with back in 99.

+Zingelbert Bembledack Throwback to my childhood 90s baby action movie's aren't the same anymore pretty sad tho. By the way i was born on Feb 22, 1990;)

I couldn't agree more. I watched this trailer in the theaters and after it was over, I had completely forgotten the movie we had gone there to see. So great.

And with the last line being "No one can be told what the Matrix is - you have to see it for yourself." Perfect marketing.

a Year lAter, bout still... A Thousand Times Yes

It never got released in theaters here in Pakistan. Although we love watching action movies and this movie was tailor-made for theaters. But I still got to watch it in a theater. My friend's dad owned a theater. So he arranged a private screening on his birthday.

@@mobeenansari2076 Nice man 😎👍

Agreed Looking back, it’s amazing how it only came out in 1999, before computers, Internet, and virtual reality was even a thing

​@@mobeenansari2076 damn he owns a theatre? Kamaal hai!

@@Rolando_Cueva That theater doesn't exist anymore. But yeah he was rich AF.

Yep!

Best way to describe this

You reckon new ones worse??

I came here after seeing matrix 4 trailer

The second two sucked and had too much CGI. This one was perfect though.

likewise. its kinda weird but i can mute most of the movie and know all the lines , i've watched the matrix too many times lol

WickedRubz eso es muy cierto

I love this movie

The Matrix will be 20 years old in 2019 - still love love it.

eyeseer1 bro 20 years

Facts such a simple yet effective and brilliant qoute that really identifies and analyzes the concept and theme of The Matrix as of today it still gives me chills and goosebumps.😍😎👍💯😰😱

It had the same effect on me.

Same

I was born on a Wednesday in 1999 More specifically February 10!

I can relate. I saw it three times the first week.

it's a true masterpiece, very close to flawless.

***** 16 years ago? so it came out in 83?

cant wait to rent this on VHS

c0nflictRaziel yeah, this friggen dvd thing is over hyped. especially since they have digital vhs now, it blows away dvd quality wise

***** I don't want any ducks

***** you are so dumb

its great man

LOL THERE ARE BETTER MOVIES !!

@@MrMrjack18 well there'll always be a better for anything its just an expression i think for its specific era and till today the matrix is a very original and unique movie there can be no remake. no one has ever thought of the idea of creating its universe that contains action and philosophy together. this movie changed action cinema forever

granted they used a ton of other people's theories, concepts and artwork to make this movie.

@@ChescoYT yes. But bottom line it couldn't have been done without the wachowskis

The Matrix is one of the greatest science fiction movies of all time. It really identifies and analyzes the boundaries of perception and perspective between reality and fiction. It was something new, fresh, unique, inventive, stylish, cool, edgy, hip, and updated such as the concept and theme. The story, performance's, music, action sequences, special effects, images, direction, and cinematography was spectacular and phenomenal. It was decent. To this day I still watch it and I consider it a classic. It never gets old.😍😎👍💯

It's non-fiction tho..

Happy Feet 2 was the third revolution in special effects.

except you forgot Meliès' Trip to the Moon, Star Wars and Jurassic Park ...

The movie Spawn came before the Matrix. I consider that a great leap in special effects.

What about Jurassic Park?

definitely yes the 90's have the most influential movies of all time from T2 to the Matrix.. movie magic at it's best..

Weaksauceization totally agree .. What are the other two?

Reloaded & Revolutions :P

@@Kornhulio18 matrix 3 is trash lol.

Top 3, the Matrix, Goodfellas and Scarface.

You ever have the feeling that you're trapped in a dream that you can not wake up? medium.com/@webberdepor/matrix-re-written-f5caa3c74d78 this theory of mine explains wachowskis stole "the matrix" script from someone from real world and as a consequence of this they both are women today. i am the ONE/prophet and i am searching for bellon. thanks for reading

I let down by the follow ups, but loved the first film

You have no idea how much I envy you. I would give anything to have watched The Matrix in theaters for the first time. I can't even imagine what that would have been like.

The first film was way ahead of its time back then .I remember the special effects was jaw dropping compared what else was coming out back then .

Only it isn't science fiction

​@@xrhstosskylias3769but it is

​​@@randywhite3947then you didn't understand it

@@jeezkanha8846 huh?

It’s not fiction… is real

Hear hear. About as good as a trailer could ever be, utter perfection.

You mean the woman that originally created the character and much of the story? The one they stole it from?

It seems they borrowed ALOT from William Gibson's Neuromancer though.

wow

😂😂😂

😂😂

That's rough.

I might become that parent 😳

This is one of the best and most hyped trailers ever made, I remember when I saw it first in the theater and was impressed as hell.

Waaw man, You are so psychorigid. New trailer is dope!

Agreed With You

yeah, this one looks way better, but still the new one looks cool, its just a different version of the matrix.

This is so unbelievably better I'll be amazed if anyone who hasn't seen the matrix before would even consider watching the new one. But maybe that was the point, to only pull in people who would get the references. What a dull, dreary way to make a trailer over 20 years after this masterpiece.

I agree

periodt

"They live" was the first one for me

@@JAYTRONIC woooow, THAT one is dope. And pretty scary too. It made me so uncomfortable first time I saw it

why do u remeber this?

FreeTuber I have no idea but didn't I say don't ask me why I remember this lol

ShonColle25 i know thats why i asked you lol

So did you remember this?

Will the both of you just stop. I've already clearly stated everything I need to say on this. Move along.

The ideas were new to Hollywood sure, but had been explored a lot in comics, manga, anime, etc.

Matrix kind of copied Ghost in the Shell so I wouldn't say it's original

@@sugaryheaven4089 Don't you mean inspiration? They may even be similar, but the proposals are different.

@@sugaryheaven4089 it's actually copying "Simulacron 3", a novel. And there's actually a film on the sane year named 'Thirteenth Floor" that didn't do that well I guess people thought it was like "The Matrix" and it's actually the other way around.

@@valecillosjg I mean, if they came out the same year, they'd've been in production at the same time. If The Matrix is like Thirteenth Floor, then Thirteenth Floor is like The Matrix. That's kind of how similarity works.

Well you obviously are not a Matrix fan, all 3 films were brilliant and had unbelievable action scenes. They said after reloaded and Revolutions that was the end of the story, they had no plans to ever do any more. The reason for the new one after so many years, is because lovers of the Movies have been wishing for more. We finally get our wish, how can you watch the new trailer and think it sucks. Any real Matrix fan like myself are super hyped after watching that trailer, what was wrong with it. Did you want it to tell you what was going to happen and give the whole movie away. The whole point of it was to keep you guessing and have many questions.

@@Alex-nf3mn I don’t reply to childish comments, try someone else.

me too

I'm back here for the same reason. I love the matrix's late 90's aesthetic. I can't help but feel that the resurrections trailer has more of a fortnite aesthetic. Ghost in the Shell vibes are present here but not there 😔

that's true, but still this is a different version of the matrix, it doesn't has to be the same, just like the animatrix or the comics, all different. still this trailer looks way better. guess is because nobody new what the matrix was at that time.

Yeah, the same reason I came here too! They should have gone with the same 1999 trailer. 😀

@@dr_sanhattan i'd agree that it doesn't have to be the same. I'd no doubt fall into the category of the fan that wants something new but also wants it to stay the same 😅

​@@N_ickoutwest I don't mind changing but the trailer looks so cartoonish modern Holywood... : (

Terminator 2: Judgement Day is absolutely and positivity such a outstanding and incredible movie on so many levels ☺️ but The Matrix is one of the greatest science fiction movies of all time as it was just definitely and completely constructed perfectly from the very beginning to the end. It really identifies and analyzes the boundaries of perception and perspective between reality and fiction.

The story, performance's, music, action sequences, special effects, images, direction, and cinematography was spectacular and phenomenal. It was decent.

@@dejaalston8672 Wachowski's to me a one hit wonder. I only consider the original matrix to be a great film,with the rest becoming an instantly pretentious corporate product. I went to film school, and the movie came out around the same time. When they asked students, why they wanted to go into film, half of them said, it was because they watched The Matrix. The movie was hugely influential. It gets quoted constantly. Phrases like "there's no spoon" became a euphemism. The film's perfect in every way.

Get Carter was in the year 2000 this 1999 And who was your friend

​@@randywhite3947 You can argue dates, but I was there and I didn't make a mistake. It was 1999 for both films. And the friend was Alex Pervakov. If you see Stalone get punched, while not facing camera - that's the back of my friend. He was his body double.

Wow me too. I was in third grade when I saw that teaser. I didn't understand or appreciate it til I was in highschool. I'm 26 now and still have not seen a movie trailer this good. Top 5 best movies I've ever seen.

+Nahome Wolde The way this movie was advertised was just brilliant. They told us nothing about the Matrix itself and teased us about wanting the answers. It gave us some fascinating visuals, but no spoilers. Then I saw the movie itself and MAN did it deliver.

That was the brilliancy of it. Nobody knew what was going on. It was vague. They told you just enough to get you interested. It was one of the few movies in history that had a better week 2 than week 1. Due to word of mouth, it doubled its opening week gross. That's unheard of.

I remember seeing it first during the Super Bowl that year too, I was 12. I knew I HAD to see it, I was in such rabid anticipation...for a movie No one knew anything about even after the trailers came out! I saw it twice on opening day...still watch it on a regular basis, at least once a year. Hard to believe that was 20 years ago...

@@DJMontePGH Yes, I remember that. I saw it when it came out and the first week I do not believe it was number one at the box office but it crept up to one after the second week, which as you say, is very, very, rare. If a movie doesn't hit number one the first week, it almost never will.

itha I too

This was the teaser trailer, the theatrical trailer was average compared to this first one.

Yep

New movie will be only about action i think, we won't see philosophy of first movie

In come the nostalgia merchants

The new one is dope tho.

Yes timeless although its harder for films created in like 60s or 70s to be timeless but this one (1999) is certainly

yep, new trailer is so bad. So so bad, as soon as I heard that music I was like yep...I know exactly where this is going.

@@Tyler-ko8dp Yup the music was beyond terrible. They had the amazing deep dark music and soundtracks of the original to use or go off, and they chose some vietnam era music. And some of the editing was really bad.. the Neo jumping from explosion, trinity screaming.. sigh

The Matrix Resurrections is absolutely and positivity a horrible movie on so many levels. It's a disgrace in the franchise. It felt rushed and forced.

Yeah, trying to imagine you don't know the story and watch this with blinkers on is more or less impossible. But I felt it did a reasonable job, and by the comments of those who saw the trailer first, it actually struck a great balance between mystery and hype.

True I just watch the movie with no knowledge of the trailer It was a great experience

Sammmmme and I’ve seen the movie at least 1,000 times

idk i have a bad feeling for the new one, it seems like it will lack storytelling and just be like flashy modern movie with explosions.

@@theguitardude5769 agree it just seems like more of a normal action movie than anything. And the action sequences are nothing we've haven't already seen in the prior films. It needs some depth and more artistic vision

Same here I was about the same age when this came out. Stunning film.

Me too love this movie best out of the three!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have them all on blu ray:)

sean stout Yeah, the blu ray looks great. Slightly greener than I remember though

Same here, this movie was my teenage years !
