Rumors? You mean the preview shown during the Superbowl (incidentally, is
that commonly broadcast to your side of the world?)

Here's a link on "Coming Attractions" (which is a very good movie website
that compiles various information and rumors about upcoming films):

http://www.corona.bc.ca/films/details/matrix.html (The F/X in the preview
were excellent, by the way).

Here's the similar link on Coming Attractions:

http://www.corona.bc.ca/films/details/zendif.html

This link is much more pessimistic, and probably not as informative.
However, when it gets to IMDB, it generally has more credibility. (Which
isn't to say "Coming Attractions" is unreliable, I just mean to say that I
don't think IMDB lists films until they're actually filming them).
