Reference / Shop
- Dictionary of Matrix - The ultimate reference site, includes everything from
transcripts to character names.
- Warner Brothers Store - Features official Matrix resin busts,
costumes, t-shirts, sunglasses, posters, and books.
- I also recommend the Shopping section of this website, which conveniently consolidates all Matrix-related items
available on Amazon.com and will even give you product previews when your mouse moves over each product.
Philosophy & Religion
- Official Matrix Essays - Philosophical essays straight from
the official Matrix site.
- The Many Meanings of the Matrix - An interview between Larry
Wachowski and Ken Wilbur. How deep does your understanding of philosophy go? Parts of this
conversation went way above my head, but I'm sure some out there will have the background necessary to follow this.
- The Matrix and Christianity - An excellent
demonstration of Christian themes contained in M1.
- Buddhism in the Matrix - a fascinating essay about Buddhism
in the Matrix by Frances Flannery-Dailey (Hendrix College) and Rachel Wagner (University of Iowa).

The Matrix Online
- MxO Archive - This is a detailed account of one MxO player's experiences playing the game.
It will give you a good feel of how the game looks and feels. Some of the graphics in my Matrix Online section are from this site.
- The Matrix Online Story - In case CloudWolf's summary of the Matrix Online
isn't detailed enough for you, this site offers extremely detailed documentation of the Matrix Online story. Even if you're not interested in the
Matrix Online, this site is well worth a visit just to see the exceptional graphic design.
- The Megacity Times - A player-run newspaper written from the redpill point of view
(as opposed to the bluepill point of view in The Sentinel, which is written by Matrix Online staff). Even though The Megacity Times is
not run by official MxO staff, the players do an excellent job of writing about current happenings within the game.
- Interview with Paul Chadwick - Gamespy.com interview
with the storyline writer for The Matrix Online
- MxO Resource - This link goes directly to the section dealing with The
Sentinel, displaying all original Sentinel issues from the game. Each Sentinel page in my MxO section links directly to these original Sentinel
issues.

- Matrix Ping Pong - A live-action ping pong match with Matrix-like
effects from a Japanese TV show.

science fiction films, and you can actually drag the ships around the screen to compare size! I put this link here in hopes that Matrix ships
will show up on this site someday (see the "Index" page once you get there to check).
