Physics in The Matrix

I. Introduction – There is no spoon in The Matrix! Ignore the laws of gravity and physic is necessary in making an exciting movie.
a. Every laws of gravity can be bent, others can be broken! – Have to break laws of gravity to make the movie more excited.
b. Follow the rabbit! – Makes unbelievable believable by follow the laws of gravity.
c. Exaggeration! – more exciting!
d. Thesis statement: Bending all rules of gravity for adrenaline pumps up, however the movie still need to follow some rules to make it believable to the audiences.

II. Everything can be bent or can be broken: To make an exciting action movie, movie makers have to break all rules of physic and gravity
- Super speed
- Super jump
- Punch through walls
- Run on walls
- Dodge the bullet…or when you’re ready, you don’t have to.

III. Follow the rabbit: To make all super power in the movie looks believable, they have to combine super powers with the laws of gravity.
- When super human characters land on the ground after super jump.
- Everybody fall the first jump!

IV. Exaggeration: Many principles of animation are applied in the movie to support the believability and made the movie more excited.
- Slow motion
- Squash
