DESCRIPTION

In preparation for filming of "The Matrix", Lawrence Fishburne (Morpheus) was asked to watch three key, genre defining anime titles. These are those titles..

GHOST IN THE SHELL

This anime masterpiece by Momoro Oshii deals with the line between man and machine, questioning our own human existence in the fast paced world of the information age.

The Puppetmaster is loose in society, destroying people's living essence and replacing their memories with implanted ones. It falls to a small government group to stop it ... and a group of heavily augmented agents!

Ghost in the Shell is widely regarded as inspiration for "The Matrix."

AKIRA

First released in 1988, Akira has garnered legions of fans around the world and is still considered the pinnacle of cel animation.

Neo-Tokyo, 2019. The city is being rebuilt post World War III. In the opening scene, Kaneda and Tetsuo, two high school drop outs, stumble across a secret government project to develop new weapons - telekinetic humans. Tetsuo learns of the existence of his 'peer', Akira, the project's most powerful subject, and determines to challenge him.

Animatrix episode "Beyond", was written and directed by Koji Morimoto, animation supervisor of Akira.

NINJA SCROLL

Feudal Japan - A time of danger, intrigue and deception. Jubei is a masterless ninja who travels the land alone, hiring his services to those with gold...or a worthy cause.
