Since its release in 1999, movie fans have argued over the various “inspirations” for The Matrix, the sci-fi thriller starring Keanu Reeves and Laurence Fishburne about a computer-generated dream world. The Wachaowski’s even found themselves tangled in a lawsuit over similarities between their story and one of a writer named Sophia Stewart.  One thing is certain, they definitely got their visual and plot cues from a LOT of different people.

In the clip below video editor Robert Grigsby Wilson splices together scenes from The Matrix along with several films including Akira, Iron Monkey, Ghost In The Shell and more to prove that nothing is really new under the sun. (Spotted @ Shadow and Act)
