Its coming out soon! 
At the official site, they just released the final trailer...downloading it as we speak. And I thought the Superbowl trailer they had at the site was sweet enough. Here is the site. 
Its gonna be awesome.

| | With a 36K modem, I don't think I'll even attempt to download that trailer!  
But I am looking forward to the film. I liked the first one very much. The story was OK - but the visual dimension to the film was really quite amazing. Very beautiful.  And Hugo Weaving was very cool.
Peace.

I think the original was really overrated. It was an SFX vehicle, with stunning visuals and some great scenes, but IMO not much more. A big budget, SFX laiden action movie.
I'd rather the similar but far superior Dark City any day.

How can you not like The Matrix? Its so cool. It makes me want to accomplish my giddy desire of walking down a street wearing sunglasses and a black trench coat.

Oh, alright. *dons flameproof suit*
I saw The Matrix, thought the special effects were well done, and thought that the actor who portrayed The Program did a good job (same guy who portrayed Elrond in LoTR). Other than that, it suffered from a good dose of cheesiness.
Kinda like Blade 2. In fact, that one was even cheesier that The Matrix. Disappointing after the original Blade, which I rather liked immensely.
