Introduction to Maya - Rendering in Arnold
This course will look at the fundamentals of rendering in Arnold. We'll go through the different light types available, cameras, shaders, Arnold's render settings and finally how to split an image into render passes (AOV's), before we then reassemble it i

I saw the first Matrix, and it was poor. THen I saw the second and third and they sucked. They sucked like hell.

well call me different but I liked them user added image I've always liked the cyberpunk idea and this was a cool take on it

a lot of people were put off asking what the hell they were talking about half the time but I enjoyed them - even more so watching them a second time a while after the hype died down (which I prefer to do usually)

I agree with t1ck135, I don't think they're as bad as people make them out to be... The 2nd was i bit boring imo because there was nothing new in it, neither effects wise, or story wise. In the 3rd one, however, the story is picked back up, and I like how that turns out...

As for the pic, I think it's from the 3rd film. The last fight between Neo and Smith in the rain...

Ya. I think the first one was the best. Simply because of all the kung fu learning and new storylines.

I believe that most of people says The Matrix sucks just because they don't understand half the stuff being said.

sry ... but matrix 2 sucks because i understand what say say.....
its the absolutly bullshit in brilliant words... everything they say just doesnt make sense... okay... in it the is a sense... but why do you have to talk 18 minuts about causality? it saounds good... but it is nothing that could help to make any story........even what the architekt says is nothing... he talks and talks and for sure i understood what he says..... i my opinion matrix 2 is only a good film if you doesnt understand the dialouges...
matrix 1 rocks in his dialouges because everywhere are secret hints to the philosophy of karl popper who had this idea of a world of "slaves" in another world... and then gags like the white rabbit...neo follows the white rabbit and enters the real world...
its alice (sry i dont know how the story is called in america..)
those are things i pretty liked on matrix ....and the action user added image
2 has to much of nonsense talking and the third one has to much of nothing........
as i said .... thats my opinion ...i d say much more .. but i cant say everything in english ..
