Few media franchises can match The Matrix for enthusiasm of
reception and subsequent proliferation. Who in 1999 could have
imagined that the momentum of a single film would sustain two more
major theatrical releases in a single year, a collection of nine
anime cartoons, a best-selling computer game, and more websites
than can be counted? Jacking In To The Matrix Trilogy will be the
first academic study to take an in-depth look at all of these
products, a coherent overview of the franchise as a whole. The
Matrix films are rich with mythological and religious references,
as well as drawing upon futuristic fiction. Such richness demands a
variety of decoding interpreting skills, and the array of talent in
this volume will lay bare many of the strand that have given the
Matrix creations such a sense of magic. The book gathers original
articles that comment on the cultural and religious implications of
The Matrix trilogy, its place within the cyberworlds of
contemporary literature and philosophy, and its portrayal of gender
and race. The volume also makes conjectures about the ethical and
social consequences of taking either the red of the blue pill.
