Matrix discussion - May contain spoilers!

Post by quantus »

Ok, so for those of us that have seen The Matrix Revolutions and want to discuss various parts of it, we should use this thread. Spoilers are ok as the topic suggests. If you haven't seen it yet, go see it, then read this.

So, any ideas how the real world and the matrix got merged within Neo the way they did? I've got a couple theories, but I'd like some other opinions before I mention mine.

i refuse to discuss this crappy movie! if I wanted to see live action DBZ fighting they shoulda shot like, fireballs or energy blasts!

i still woulda preferd that guys theroy that all the ppl in the matrix were actually robots/programs and the programs were actually humans. now that would be cool haha

or at the end you see Neo in an agent costume with Smith. "Hello, I am Agent Anderson" wahaha

Missed the point my ass. Ever stop and think you "might" be assigning meaning to the meaningless? The movie was intentionally vague, smacking of indecision amongst the creators.

Andy Wachowski: Oh crap, we made something uber popular. The fans will fillet us alive unless we get a good ending. What do we do?
Larry Wachowski: Easy, enthrall them extended fight scenes, explosions and special effects, toss in some good old skool morality, shake, then puree. Who ever said we had to end it? Trailers lie all the time.
Andy Wachowski: True, this would be easier and we'd keep the fans amused while we laugh in the backroom filled with cash.
Larry Wachowski: Exactly!
Together: <maniacal laughter ensues>

Also, unless you can provide a logical inductive proof (since we know induction proves anything and everything, or so we've been brainwashed to believe), you can have fun proving us wrong, while we spend time on better things 8) (like FFXI)

Notice the eerie corrolation to the existence extraterrestrial life?

well how would you propose that the directors end the movie then? in terms of wrapping up the movie I think they did a good job. I wouldn't say the movie sucked at all...it didn't.

well the movie was called revolutions.... but in the end there was peace. "Matrix: Dont's Hate We're All Equal Comrades" shoulda been the title!
