Who didn't see that coming? I suppose fans will be buying this version to go with the individual ones they already have. Just like all the versions of Lord of the Rings.
Still I don't see why there need to be so many discs. Lets look at what you get;
Disc One: The Matrix
- All-new transfer supervised by the Wachowskis and director of photography (DP), Bill Pope
- Audio commentary by Keanu Reeves, Carrie Anne Moss, Laurence Fishburne, DP Bill Pope and other cast and crew
Disc Two: The Matrix Revisited (180 Minutes)
- Same special features as previous release
- Offers comprehensive behind-the-scenes look at the first film in the trilogy
Disc Three: Matrix Reloaded Extended Version (190 Minutes)
- New cut incorporating 55 minutes of footage shot for the 'Enter The Matrix' game
- Audio commentaries by Keanu Reeves, Carrie-Anne Moss, Laurence Fishburne, Jada Pinkett-Smith, Production Designer Owen Paterson, 2nd Unit Directors David Ellis and Kimble Rendall and other cast and crew
Disc Four: Matrix Reloaded Revisited - Special Features (180 Minutes)
- Includes all new footage including dozens of never-before-seen cast and crew interviews, scene dissections, explorations of the production design and special effects, and more
Disc Five: Matrix Revolutions
- Audio commentaries by Keanu Reeves, Carrie-Anne Moss, Laurence Fishburne, Special Effects Supervisor, John Gaeta; editor, Zach Staenberg and other cast and crew
Disc Six: Matrix Revolutions Revisited - Special Features (180 Minutes)

Disc Seven: The Animatrix
- Same special features as previous release
Disc Eight: The Roots Of The Matrix - Special Features (180 Minutes)
- The Matrix and the History of the Action Genre - Examines the many influences of action cinema that make up The Matrix
- Brainiacs’ Revenge - Scholars, Philosophers, Theorists, and Charlatans deconstruct the intellectual underpinnings of the trilogy
- The Science Behind the Fiction – Is the notion of a real Matrix plausible? An investigation of the technologies that inspire the metaphor of The Matrix
Disc Nine: The Burley Man Chronicles - Special Features (75 Minutes)
- The Burley Man Chronicles - The “Human” story of the making of the Matrix, as well as the game Enter the Matrix
- Rave Reel- A club-oriented montage of unused and newly edited footage from Reloaded

Okay that's everything, anyone likely to get it? Myst you up for this? £44.99 is the Recommend Retail Price so it might go down. Perhaps it would be a good buy during a sale or something, maybe £24.99 :)

Hmmm....me too...better shift 'em now before they become worthless....although may think that 2+3 already are...lol.
Id get this if the price dropped a bit. £45 is a bit steep for what is esentially 3 films ive seen with a bunch of extras that i'll only watch once.
