I just watched the Animatrix at my friend's birthday.
I'm going ot have nightmares from this one. That was seriously some of the most fucked up stuff ever.
Especially, with the guy in the mech, and the machiens are cutting it open, while all the time he's screaming, and then they rip him out taking off his arms and legs. I get shivers down my spine thinking about that one.
I'd enjoy the series alot more without having to have watched that :(
Yeah, I just saw the animatrix myself the other night ^_^
After Squarepictures' lil striptease one, I didn;t have high hopes...damn did that change quickly.
The second rennaissance I found morbidly beautiful. the graphic imagery, while a lil overkill, got the hard message across about man's nature.
yeah, teh parts of that guy getting ripped out of the mech, and that female robot being brutally beaten apart were just scary. but, if this is teh backstory to the whole shebang of the Matrix, then I've gained a whole new respect for the movies.

I think that was the whole point.
I think it was supposed to represent how the arogence of humanity will be it's downfall and by using war and genocide as answers rather then compansion and understanding we will all be destroyed in a matter of time. It has a bit of social commentary with many of the protest/riot scenes echoing ones that have occured in the passed 50 years and the humans of different religions banding together againist the machines (proving the only time countries will put their hatred aside is when something they hate more comes along.)The grizzly nature of it is because, well, real war is never pretty and I don't think they would have gotten the seriousness of the destruction of humanity across without showing screaming soldiers ripped apart by superior war machines and the infermary filled with burned and shreaded humans.... but I'm probably wrong, I tend to be wrong a lot.
I actually find the pile of machines in the ocean worse then the humans being torn apart... the machines at least gave those humans a new life in the Matrix, the conciousness of the machines in the ocean is gone forever (unless there's a machine heaven, but I don't think they want to go into that... although it would be a cool thing to explore if there's another Animatrix disc) and were the humans are recycled into batteries, those poor machines aren't even given the benefit of having their remains turned to toasters or something!
