“The launch of The Matrix on DVD ten years ago was hugely significant to the uptake of that format at the time and we expect it to have a similar impact on the HD format,” commented Jason Mather, Senior Marketing Controller, Warner Home Video. “These films are visual masterpieces; people were buying DVD players just to watch The Matrix, because it was so much more of an immersive experience compared to VHS. The step-up to high definition with HD DVD is even greater; fans of the trilogy are in for a real treat, especially with the HD enhanced special features.”
