movie question

[Jewel]

Does the first part of the Matrix play in a particular city like New York or just any American city?

[Angel at his table]

So... I really donť know...
I love The Lord of the Rings, I´m Tolkien's fan just 7 years... But Matrix... Sorry... :confused: :/ ;) :)

[musiclover]

you should ask our resident Mrs. Reeves that question. :smug:

[el_scorcho]

Yup, Kasia's our girl for this one...I dunno a damn thing about the Matrix :P

[cristiane]

:/ i dont know..sorry!

[[Nicoldplei]]

I really don't have a clue but it's more likely to be on the East Coast. I'd say NYC or DC...
I'm sure you can find that info on a forum on the official website. ;)

[Professor Peedston]

i think it's supposed to be a generic city, not any one in particular.

[Juliana]

Hum..I don´t like Matrix very much...But I think that wasn´t just in NY... :confused:

I heard this, too.
I think I heard somebody say that they took pains to not have any indentifiable landmarks so that it's just a generic metropolis. They wanted to have a feel of everybody assimilated into a bigger, self-contained idea (a modern city) but they didn't want to limit it to any one space.

Or something.

...and then Neo flew off and fought Agent Smith with one hand.

interesting question

[weedy_gonzalez]

the almighty mrs reeves says: 'NYC? i always thought it was LA'

end of transaction :D

[weedy_gonzalez]

well i don`t know if i understand the question.

if you mean is the 1st matrix about NYC or any other american city the answer could be it`s about the world. the fact that we live in a computer programme.

if you mean if the scenes from the 1st matrix show NYC or any other american city the answer is..... well i think it`s LA but i might be wrong.

[Charline'sMOM]

i like your avatar , weeedy_gonzalez

[weedy_gonzalez]

thanx :D

[weedy_gonzalez]

i`m trying to find some pix. here you can see the buildings look more LA than NYC.

[Charline'sMOM]

americans film a lot of movies in toronto .....maybe.....idunno

[weedy_gonzalez]

i can`t find a pic where i could see the panorama (i hope i used the right word) of the city but i found this and in this office there`s a pic of probably the city they`re in. can`t figure what city it is. might be chicago

[weedy_gonzalez]

naah it aint chicago

[weedy_gonzalez]

ok i can`t find anything but i remember watching the film and thinking the buildings and stuff looked like it was in LA

[Jewel]

Awwww, thx guys. I think I'll just write it's an American city. :)

[MrsBerry]

:dozey:

[musiclover]

i do think it is Chicago skyline in that picture-in-picture...

jewel, you mean to say you've to write an essay on this movie? :huh: :dozey:

[Professor Peedston]

i'm pretty sure that is chicago in that picture, but i'm also pretty sure that even if it was filmed in LA, the intent was still not to specifically say what city it took place in. if it's an artificial world, chances are, it's an artificial city too, right?

i also agree with what richard said.

[musiclover]

i second you on that. :smug:

[Leaver]

:rolleyes:

[weedy_gonzalez]

i do think it is Chicago skyline in that picture-in-picture...
