This Is What 'The Matrix' Really Looks Like Without CGI!!! - Special Effects Breakdown

Get some cool drag & drop VFX here! ► www.famefocus.com/go/getvfx/ ◄
What with being responsible for the highest-grossing R-rated movie of the 1999’s, when it comes to action movies, the Wachowskis certainly know how to dream up a masterpiece. But with great imagination comes great need to figure out how the heck you’re gonna make something that isn’t really physically possible look real.
Nowadays, for most FX you’d just boot up a PC and “hey presto” a fully digital photo-real spiderman double! Ok, it’s a little more involved than that and we’re not saying that VFX don’t require a huge amount of very talented people who are ever expanding the possibilities of what can be done on a computer.
However, back in the late 90’s when directors Lily and Lana Wachowski were making their first instalment of ‘The Matrix’, computers weren’t so powerful. But, despite that, they still managed to push the boundaries of what could be done at the time.
And that’s what we’re going to talk about right now in this SFX breakdown of ‘The Matrix’.

Why couldn't you believe it? If you look outside of Hollywood, way better CGI was made during that time, it's just that fewer people actually saw it. One person who had amazing-looking CGI long before Hollywood and looked better, and actually is where a large number of studios got their techniques and idea, is Stephen Chow. The dude is one of the greatest storytellers that ever lived, also one of the best filmmakers, too. Look at Shaolin Soccer (2001) and compare it to the highest budget Hollywood movies using CG at the time - it literally crushes them and his team had only 3-8 people!

Matrix 4 will probably be as boring as Matrix 2 & 3 but we'll see.

[@mrspaceman2764]

CGI was way more expensive and faster at the time and the sequel's budget had been increased dramatically after the original success. Most big budget movies from this era don't hold up because of their cheesy CGI. Looking at you Star Wars prequels... Those were a wonder at the time but look like bad Sci Fi channel productions whenever people are interacting with the CGI.

The plot dictates the special effects, not vice-versa. The highway chase in Matrix 2 is incredible (but the plot ... not as good). They literally used an under-construction highway in Alameda CA, looking out at the golden gate bridge ...

Can I just go back in time for 20 years to the point where I sat in the movie theater all by myself on a midday just so I dont want to be disturbed by any crowd or their chatter, just sit and watch peacefully. I was so worldly excited. Then the beauty unfolds with each scene. Connecting the dots was a challenging task, and the screenplay just makes you pumped up, and fills gaps, the next scene blows your mind off, then you begin to understand whole context only get blown away once again. Its just a brand new perspective on the entire life you experienced and our entire existence. Then the thoughts didnt leave you for months to come. Years may be. Even now, its such a spiritual journey. Ah the quality of that childhood! Need a time machine.

Buy up the showing it will only cost like a grand.

[@firerat1653]

I like how you attempted to sync the final movie shots with the same shot from the making btw

[@Parzival224]

The Matrix saga, the best gnostic/alchemic based plot ever made.

La historia, la música, los efectos especiales, las actuaciones...una verdadera obra de arte.

[@Gbigbega]

I just saw the three part matrix few days ago. I must have watched that movie a 100 times. Still the best for me.

[@somethingtojenga]

The explanation is that they forgot the guns

[@saintflev]

Still one of the best movies ever.

[@dutchanonymous7786]

Not a movie

[@saintflev]

@@dutchanonymous7786 i know what you mean.

[@lorenh763]

The Wachowski brothers were brilliant

[@HeckuleStudios]

great video. you do such a good job at explaining every element of each shot.

[@sammygoris]

"and that's what we're going to talk about right now! Hi I'm shaosfiaoscmaowfaofnzfnalng of the matrix"

[@rahi866]

Back when Wachowskis were brothers

[@hitoshiigarashi5350]

Obviously they smoked one blunt too many

[@coldstuff9784]

They're still brothers

[@dennisisthedroningsmalley9807]

Genetically, they’re still brothers. I think that maybe they got caught up in the Matrix fantasy and really do think they’re truly women.

[@cutlass403]

Yeah when they were men... Lol

@MaxDeveloper Gender and sex are two different things. Gender is conventional, and so it can be changed.

the soundtrack on the intro montage for the matrix with the bullets and bass matching was so sick
