Here we are with the conclusion of our run of The Animatrix. This glorious collection of shorts displays what seems like an endless amount of possibilities for this franchise outside of its main story. You don't need Neo, Morpheus or Agent Smith to fill this universe. I'm surprised this franchise hasn't turned to TV. It would be a PERFECT medium to continue these stories. The format would allow for really cool one-offs and interested further explorations of The Matrix that could take their time and not have to get to an endgame due to having to be concealed within 2.5 hours. For now, thank you to this brilliant little run of shorts, while they can be incredibly different visions and stories, they manage to maintain the integrity, philosophy and heart of the series, easily making it one of the family in this franchise.
