Still don’t have The Ultimate Matrix Collection in your Blu-ray collection? This week Amazon has got the 6-disc boxed set for just $24.99 — that amounts to about $4 per disc! The Ultimate Matrix Collection contains all three films from the Wachowski Brothers: The Matrix (1999), The Matrix Reloaded (2003), and The Matrix Revolutions (2003). Plenty of bonus materials supplement the set such as the feature-length documentary “The Matrix Revisited,” commentaries, featurettes, and The Music Revisited: a 41-track audio selection of almost 3 hours of music. (See below for more extras.) The films star Keanu Reeves, Carrie-Anne Moss, Hugo Weaving, and Laurence Fishburne in the ground-breaking trilogy that won multiple Oscars for effects, editing and sound.
