Animated Short Sci-Fi Adaptations

This Adorable Recap of the Matrix in 60 Seconds is Hilarious

The Matrix may be an all-time cinematic classic, but you haven't really seen it until you've seen The Matrix in 60 seconds in animated form.

Gleefully put together by the 1A4 Studio folks, its run-through of the Matrix in 60 seconds combines cheesy black and white animation, adorable sound effects and a sly sense of humor to make this video mandatory for any Matrix fans with a sense of humor. Watch as every major plot point and action scene are run through with laser precision and only a modicum of dialogue. The 1A4 studio is responsible for several movie condensations which are available on its website.

Also, the little animated man who plays Neo in this version of The Matrix is probably a better actor than Keanu Reeves anyway.
