[edit] Anime?

Is the Animatrix an anime? According to the Anime News Network encyclopedia, it is listed as an OAV. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=1710 KyuuA4 10:20, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Text Criticism

The present version states that "The Animatrix is a collection of nine CG and anime shorts ...". Following the 'CG' link one learns that CG " ... was a French automobile maker"! So, what does 'CG' mean in the Animatrix context?


CG -> computer animation, problem solved, Fantasy ;-)

  • Actually cg=Computer graphics, with cgi special effects being Computer-generated imagery. Seeing as how the origional wording was "CG", I've changed the link to computer graphs. However, if you think computer animation works better, I have no objections to changing it back. All three articles appear to accredit themselves with their use in films and tv shows.


Some of these were on tv as well before Reloaded came out. I think it might have been MTV, I forget. Also, the 4 films that were "originally released on the series' official website" are still available ; I'm making a small note of it. --ScarletSpiderDave 07:14, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
