The Matrix Runs on Windows XP - Neatorama

(Video Link)

The Matrix probably would have been less exciting if the movie had to be restarted every ten minutes and the Agent Smiths inexplicably froze up during fight scenes. College Humor offers this parody of The Matrix in which the network operates on Windows XP.

I think I will take the red pill. Apple for sure.

Love the Paperclip Guy. Have you tried realizing the truth that there is no spoon?

Wow... he is a much better actor than Keanu Reeves ever was. They should have had him do the movies.

Those production values look ridiculously high for such a one-note gag premise intended for the Internet. Who paid for that? How did they make money off it?

@dgaicun:

Methinks this looks like a film school project. Maybe I'm wrong, but I never have heard of CH.com doing their own films, they probably just "acquire" them.

Wow, they have a lot of ca$h to make those parodies!

Funniest parts :
"I hope you have cookies enabled"
"It looks like you try to bend the spoon with your mind" from the REALLY annoying paper clip!
"You will have to make a choice. To send an error report. Or. NOT to send an error report"

College Humor does their own videos all the time. And they don't skimp on production value for some things. Have you visited their site in the past, like, year? ;)

(I don't know about 'films', but this isn't a real trailor).

hmmmm, not bad. bit obvious though, and for the amount of time and cash spent on it, could hav had a few more jokes in there really.
you want to get quality writers like David Neher into the team. He's talent!

I like the reinterpretation of Neo as a more Napoleon Dynamiteish figure. "Like, duhhh, I'm the chosen one. Gosh."

Nice, I don't hate windows, but the parodies are still awesome, and somewhat true lol. I love the mac commercials that too.

Funniest part to me was freeze unfreeze how about ctrl alt delete.. very true
