Order

can some one put the matrix and the animatrix mini series and the matrix reloaded and rev in and order so i can view them in that way?

You put them in order yourself. The Matrix, The Animatrix, Reloaded, Enter the Matrix (game), Revolutions.

There is no set time schedule in particular to the Animatrix series.
Some episodes, like the Final Flight of the Osiris, happen between M1 and M2, and directly kick off the first events in Enter The Matrix. Its one of the first missions you play, trying to get to the Post Office to pick up the transmission from Thadeus.Stuff like The Second Rennaisance( Pt.I & II) are part of the Zion Archive, when man still ruled the Earth and we invented A.I., then the conflict and proceeding war.Think about 'Dead Man Clapping'- still gives me chills....
Detective story was about Trinity the hacker, whilst in the Matrix, way after the machines had produced the fetuses. Kinda like Neo, in M1.
The rest are either almost like Construct programs, or centre around people being aware of the Matrix and trying to escape (Kids Story for example)
There is no set timeline in Animatrix, its all configured randomly(very Nostradamus).
However, with all else, it sits, M1, M-Rel & ETM simultaneously, leading at the exact moment to the beginning of M-Rev.....

sec ren (both), detective story, matrix 1, the kid, FFOTO, matrix 2, matrix 3
other animatrixes should be matched before either m1 or before m2

The Second Renaissance Part I & II
A Detective Story
The Matrix
Kid’s Story
Final Flight of the Osiris
The Matrix Reloaded (Enter The Matrix)
The Matrix Revolutions
The Matrix Online

(Program, World record, Beyond and Matriculated takes place SOME time before Reloaded, but the exact time is hard to say)

i thought about getting a few vhs tapes, starting with the second renaissance, and putting all the matrix stuff in order like that... fusing together the 3 movies, but having the osiris scenes between m1 and reloaded (as well as kids story)... i think that would be an awesome set of tapes, also displaying the use of so many mediums to tell the story.

Good idea! Although I'd wait for the Bluedisc DVDs to come out, then burn all 3 movies onto it and everything from the Animatrix... 😄
And Omega > You forgot about Enter the Matrix! The FMV's have to count for something...
