  • The Matrix explained

    Zion is a program, just like the Matrix. How is Neo able to figure out that
    he is able to stop the sentinels in Zion near the end of the film? The
    spoon given to him earlier. It had obviously been bent loads, but how
    outside the Matrix? This gave Neo the inspiration and the understanding
    that Zion is still a matrix.

    The One explained:

    "The One" is a program, but has to be "attached" to someone in the Matrix.
    So Mr. Anderson got it in the 6th version of the Matrix. Then "The One"
    program's purpose is to allow Zion to be destroyed then to rebuild it. The
    reason for this is because of anomalies - the 1% of humans that don't
    accept the Matrix. These are all brought out of the Matrix program and into
    the Zion program by the "Morpheus" program and other similar "ship captain"
    programs. Then once all the anomalies are out of the Matrix (and in Zion),
    that is the time for Zion to be destroyed, thus killing all the anomalies
    off. The Matrix is then upgraded, thus creating the next version of the
    Matrix, but Zion must be rebuilt so that the next lot of anomalies can be
    brought out again so that they can be destroyed. This is the feedback-loop,
    and is the reason to retain a handful of people so that Zion can be rebuilt.
    So this is why Neo said the prophecy was a lie - the One's purpose was not
    to end the war as the prophecy stated.
    Unfortunately, "The One" program must be re-used each time, or copied, so it
    can be "attached" to a new anomaly inside the Matrix. So what happens to
    the old "The One" program? It faces deletion, and as the Oracle explained,
    it goes into exile instead, just like the French bloke (the Merovingian)
    did. He was the first One (probably from the second version of the Matrix),
    and once he fulfilled his duty, he became an exile program and "abdicated"
    his "Oneness" by choosing Persephone and power. This is evident in the bogs
    when Persephone asks Neo to kiss her. She says she wants him to kiss her so
    she can feel what it is like again to be kissed by something close to
    human, just like the Merovingian used to be. Then she says to Trinity that
    she envies her, but that these things are not meant to last. So the
    Merovingian used to be just like Neo - a One - thus proving further the
    feedback-loop explained earlier.

    The correct door in the Architect's room

    Now there are two possibilities here:
    1. All the previous One's chose the right door allowing a "temporary
    dissemination" of their code into the Matrix (i.e., the code they "carry"
    thus indicating Neo is indeed human), then he must select (unplug) 23
    people from the Matrix to rebuild Zion. This takes away the possibility
    that stories from previous rebuilds of Zion will be carried through. But
    Morpheus indicated in the first Matrix that this is the case anyway. He
    said, "there was a man born inside, able to change things, it was he who
    freed the first of us," - basically the One previous to Neo. And this
    proves that the previous One chose the right door also. Neo's purpose is
    also to choose the right door, but he does not because he faces deletion
    afterwards and has the choice of going into exile - programs choosing to go
    into exile is the one thing that can't be accounted for in program
    parameters. Thus, he chooses the left door instead this time. How was Neo
    able to choose the other door? Because of his extreme willpower? - Even the
    Architect indicated that he'd noticed this - "Interesting. That was quicker
    than the others." Or more likely, because the Oracle upgraded his coding
    with the candy on the park bench. The candy/cookie was a method to change
    the One's program. She said he has made a believer out of her - this is
    quite human-like and perhaps the previous One's didn't accept the upgrade
    candy, now she has hope... hope that Neo will finally choose the other
    door.

    2. All the previous One's chose the left door, saving Trinity and letting
    Zion fall. So this time is no different. But the Architect does say, "You
    are here because Zion is about to be destroyed. Its every living inhabitant
    terminated, its entire existence eradicated," and also, "this will be the
    sixth time we have destroyed it, and we have become exceedingly efficient
    at it," - assuming the Architect isn't lying, then they have already
    destroyed Zion (i.e., Zion has fallen) five times - i.e., the result of
    going through the left door.

    Morpheus and Trinity are programs. Morpheus's purpose was to find the One
    and deliver him to the Architect. Trinity's purpose is to control the One
    by getting in love with him. Trinity is supposed to be the mother of the
    new One every time the Matrix is Reloaded. That's why the sex scene was so
    important and why she was named Trinity.

    The Architect says, "she is going to die, and there is nothing that you can
    do to stop it." He was correct though because she did die just like Neo did
    in the first Matrix (Oracle said he or Morpheus would, and she didn't lie,
    but he came back to life). Trinity dies, but comes back to life (we are
    using medical definition of death in all this of course!).

    The Architect has already laid down an ultimatum for Neo choosing the left
    door:
    The Architect - "Failure to comply with this process will result in a
    cataclysmic system crash killing everyone connected to the matrix, which
    coupled with the extermination of Zion will ultimately result in the
    extinction of the entire human race."

    Neo - "You won't let it happen, you can't. You need human beings to
    survive."

    The Architect - "There are levels of survival we are prepared to accept.
    However, the relevant issue is whether or not you are ready to accept the
    responsibility for the death of every human being in this world."

    Looking at this further, the Architect does say "coupled" with the
    extermination of Zion will the human race be exterminated. So he says
    everyone connected to the Matrix will die, but if Zion is not exterminated,
    the human race will not necessarily die. Also, there is likely to be a
    time-window between not going through the right door, and the cataclysmic
    crash, thus allowing Neo to unplug as many as possible from the Matrix, then
    those people won't die. This will be the start of the next Zion. As for the
    Matrix, a cataclysmic crash doesn't mean the end of the Matrix - just needs
    rebooting or reloading!

    Agent Smith explained:

    Agent Smith is the only "human" in this world. He's the one spreading
    himself like a virus replicating himself over and over until the Matrix
    will finally get overloaded and fail. Smith is the one who wants to get out
    of the Matrix for good. He said so in the first Matrix, "I must get out of
    here, I must get free! And in this mind, is the key," squeezing Morpheus's
    temples, "my key! Once Zion is destroyed, there is no need for me to be
    here!"
    Smith knows that by killing Neo he can escape the Matrix because Neo is the
    key to resetting the Matrix, or to shut it off. It was originally killing
    Neo (in the first Matrix) that allowed Smith to become powerful (cloning
    ability) - so killing Neo again will allow him to gain Neo's powers
    completely, and thus gain the power to shut down the Matrix.
    So where the **** did Smith come from if he wants to destroy the Matrix?
    He's obviously not meant to be there - he's a computer virus as he has
    every characteristic of a virus - he multiplies and spreads and infects
    (and emulates) other programs like one. He is exactly as he described
    humans at the end of the first Matrix - "You move to an area and you
    multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed and the only
    way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism
    on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A
    virus."
    But who put him there? This will only be revealed in Revolutions
    (Revelations?) I guess - but I'm betting on humans in the real real world,
    i.e., outside of Zion and the Matrix. They're at war with the machines and
    trying to destroy them by infecting them with this virus - Agent Smith. So
    the irony with this theory is that Agent Smith represents the human race!!
    Neo represents the machines! Agent Smith says to Neo just after he's seen
    the Oracle that he became free when Neo destroyed him in the first Matrix
    (remember when Neo entered his body and exploded him from inside out) - as
    a virus, Smith has the ability to "inherit" other programs' abilities and
    thus inherited some of Neo's.

    The anomaly explained:

    The anomaly is all the humans that do not accept the Matrix. The Architect
    says "Your life is the sum of a remainder of an unbalanced equation
    inherent to the programming of the matrix. You are the eventuality of an
    anomaly, which despite my sincerest efforts I have been unable to eliminate
    from what is otherwise a harmony of mathematical precision. While it
    remains a burden to sedulously avoid it, it is not unexpected, and thus not
    beyond a measure of control." This includes Neo, but Neo's Matrix avatar is
    attached with the One program so that he can follow his purpose as
    explained earlier under "The One explained". However, he is also supposed
    to protect himself and destroy anything that gets in his way - i.e., Agent
    Smith - so that he may fulfill his purpose.
    Further proving Neo - and other non-accepters of the Matrix - are the
    anomaly, the Architect says, "Your life is the sum of a remainder of an
    unbalanced equation inherent to the programming of the matrix." The clue
    here is Neo's program name - "The One". Take one-third for example. 1 over
    3 is 0.33333 recurring. A computer cannot deal with recurring numbers, so
    must accept a limit, let's say 0.33333 for argument's sake. Multiply by 3,
    you get 0.99999 - never 1.00000, where has the "remainder" 0.00001 (One)
    gone? This is the limitation of computers, this is the mathematical
    imprecision inherent in programming (of the Matrix) and the eventuality of
    the One anomaly unable to be eliminated.

    What is the equation then? :

    Not sure, but it definitely involves pi. The Keymaker refers to the window
    of time to open the door to the mainframe as 314 seconds. 3.14 is pi to
    three sig. figs., or the number of radians in half a circle. Half a circle
    is like the cross-section of a womb, similar to the alcove of Neo and
    Trinity's love scene - conceiving the next One? "NEO", incidentally, is an
    anagram of "ONE". Trinity and Neo - one on one; a choice - one or one. Leads
    us to 101. "101" is mentioned numerous times in Matrix 1 and Reloaded.
    Neo's room at the beginning, Merovingian is on the 101st floor, the 101
    freeway of the car chase in Reloaded, then when Trinity is hacking into the
    power plant system, she resets the password to Z10N0101. Freaky. Indicates
    that she is a program because that's not some random password she's put in.
    101 is binary for 5, which in zero-based binary counting: 000 is 1, 001, is
    2, 010 is 3, 011 is 4, 100 is 5, 101 is 6 - And this is the 6th version of
    the Matrix! Then there are 303. 303 is the room Neo got shot in Matrix 1,
    the Oracle lives in room 303, it's also the hotel room number Trinity is in
    Matrix 1 and it's seen at the end when Neo fights the Agents and Smith and
    begins to literally see the code that makes up the Matrix. 101 x 3 = 303, a
    trilogy, 3 + 0 + 3 = 6 = the 6th Matrix. Trinity means 3.

    Who is the "mother" that the Architect refers to? :

    The Architect says, "Please," in an almost disapproving sense when Neo
    suggests the Oracle, but does not reveal who it really is or even directly
    that Neo is wrong. The architect was the one who created the Matrix; the
    co-creator is neither Persephone nor the Oracle. Both of them are only
    programs that have a purpose in the matrix, just like the rest. The
    Architect is in charge of the Matrix world and the co-creator is in charge
    of Zion. She has almost the same age as the Architect. Therefore, that
    woman is the Head Counselor, the only woman of importance that lives in
    Zion and the one who asked for the two captains to volunteer at the council
    meeting. She's the one who knew all along about the Matrix. She was the one
    who told Zion's Defense Minister to cool off and to let Morpheus do his
    work so things could go as planned.
    Or alternatively, it could indeed be the Oracle. She is the only program
    that truly wants humans to have a free choice... at the same time, she sees
    the future, because she knows the program code - she is like God - which is
    why Seraph protects her - see "Who is Seraph?" below.

    What's so special about Neo's avatar? :

    Neo is a skilled hacker, and his avatar in the Matrix is based on the person
    that founded the AI of the original machines that eventually took over the
    world... How? Take a look at the disc he gave to the bloke at the door at
    the beginning of Matrix 1. It said "DISC AI" on it. The hollowed book Neo
    takes the disc out of is "Simulacra and Simulation" - a collection of
    essays by the French postmodernist philosopher Jean Baudrillard. He opens it
    to the section "on Nihilism" (meaning nothing is truly known, etc.).
    "Baudrillard's concept of simulation is the creation of the real through
    conceptual or 'mythological' models which have no connection or origin in
    reality. The model becomes the determinant of our perception of
    reality--the real." And Morpheus says, "Welcome to the desert of the real,"
    in Matrix 1. I'd say this book describes The Matrix to a tee. So this disc
    contains the key to the AI, and thus how to destroy the machines, so I
    think they'll use this info in Revolutions to ultimately destroy the
    machines, which means he'll have to go back to the nightclub and find the
    guy he gave it to.

    Who is Seraph? :

    The reason Seraph (the guy Neo meets before meeting the Oracle) had golden
    code and was so spectacular is that he came from the first incarnation of
    the matrix, which was heaven. "Seraph" is singular for the plural
    "seraphim". The seraphim are the highest choir of angels and included
    amongst others: Lucifer, Gabriele, Raziel and Malaciah, and they sit on the
    8th level of Heaven just one below God. So Seraph will obviously have a big
    part in Revolutions, but whose side will he be on - the machines or the
    humans? That is the question.

    The Twins:

    They are exiled programs that emulate the human myth of ghosts as the Oracle
    explained. They are programs behaving badly. Persephone killed one of the
    Merovingian's bodyguards with a silver bullet because he was emulating a
    werewolf. So if the Twins could phase into ghost form, why didn't he when
    his arm was trapped in the door of the garage? Was it because he was
    wounded or because he can't phase when his arm is trapped? No of course not.
    The doors of that building, when shut, always led somewhere else (usually
    in the mountains) when opened again without the Keymaker's key. So if it
    were slammed shut due to the Twin phasing into ghost form, the Twin's arm
    would've ended up god knows where, but certainly not attached to the Twin's
    body.

            Ok... Im a huge Matrix fan.. and heres my take on the series.. prepare to be blasted by nonesense =-]

            Neo is a machine, kinda. He is a human with enhanced genetics, enhanced implants, and a machine programmed mind (probably based on a "The One" template program). That's why, at the end of Revolutions, when his body is being taken away, he is shown as an orange glow. The orange glow is how the machines see each other, and therefore how they see Neo. It is also how Neo sees Smith inside Bane... he is seeing the machine program of Smith inside Bane's mind, and therefore it is an orange glow in the shape of the Smith.

            But the orange glow isn't the only reason to believe Neo is a machine. Throughout the trilogy other hints are given, such as: "His neural kinetics are way above normal.", "He's a machine.", "Your five predecessors were by design based on a similar predication...", etc.

            So if Neo is a machine, why was he created (as all machines must have a purpose)? He was created by the Oracle and the Architect to be The One. As the Architect explains to him: "Your life is the sum of a remainder of an unbalanced equation inherent to the programming of the Matrix... Your five predecessors were by design based on a similar predication, a contingent affirmation that was meant to create a profound attachment to the rest of your species, facilitating the function of The One... The function of The One is now to return to the Source, allowing a temporary dissemination of the code you carry, reinserting the prime program."

            Translated, the Architect is explaining that Neo was designed to be a religious figure to the freed humans, thus causing them to put their faith (hope) in Neo and to rally around him ("...sum of a remainder..."). This helps to ensure that the freed humans are focused on Neo instead of war, and to keep them all together in one place, Zion (which was built by the machines for this purpose also). Neo is a form of control in the real world.

            And just to make sure that Neo carries out his part of their plan, the machines programmed him with "... a contingent affirmation that was meant to create a profound attachment to the [humans]." This, along with his enhanced abilities and the "guidance" of the Oracle, keeps him on the intended course.

            The Architect also states that "The function of The One is now to return to the Source, allowing a temporary dissemination of the code you carry, reinserting the prime program." This simply means that The One program in Neo's mind is the most important (prime) program in the Matrix, and that now that his mission (purpose) is complete, he must return to the source for deletion (all machines must have a purpose). The phrase "... temporary dissemination..." means that the The One program will be used again in the next version of the Matrix. This is also why Neo's choice of the left door will destroy the Matrix, as there can be only one The One in the Matrix at any time. By staying in the Matrix Neo is preventing it from being reloaded, as a reload will do nothing without another The One for the next version. (In programming terms he is the highest priority task, and he will not release the Matrix program's main semaphore.)

            OK, so The One is a human with enhanced genetics, enhanced implants, and a machine programmed mind, and was created by the Oracle and the Architect to carry out a specific purpose (form of control in and out of the Matrix) in each iteration of the Matrix. Now let's see how The One fits in with the entire story of the trilogy.

            As is explained, the Matrix was created by the Architect, at the end of the war with the humans, as a way to control the humans and use them as a power source (I know, hard to believe...). The first Matrix was "... quite naturally perfect, it was a work of art, flawless, sublime.", while the second Matrix was redesigned "... to more accurately reflect the varying grotesqueries of your nature." Basically Heaven and then Hell. In both cases, however, no conscious choice was given to the humans as to whether or not they wanted to believe in the reality of the Matrix. This caused the majority of humans to reject the Matrix and die ("... whole crops were lost.").

            To solve this problem the Oracle was created, and realized correctly that the humans needed to be given a choice: "Thus, the answer was stumbled upon by another, an intuitive program, initially created to investigate certain aspects of the human psyche... she stumbled upon a solution whereby nearly 99.9% of all test subjects accepted the program, as long as they were given a choice, even if they were only aware of the choice at a near unconscious level." So by giving humans a choice, even at an unconscious level that only 0.1% are ever aware of, they accepted the Matrix.

            Unfortunately for the machines, however, a majority of the 0.1% who were aware of the choice usually chose the real world over the Matrix. "While this answer functioned, it was obviously fundamentally flawed, thus creating the otherwise contradictory systemic anomaly, that if left unchecked might threaten the system itself. Ergo, those that refused the program, while a minority, if unchecked, would constitute an escalating probability of disaster." The machines therefore also needed a way to control the 0.1% of the humans who chose the real world over the Matrix, thus Zion and The One were created.

            As was explained earlier, Zion was built by the machines to ensure that the freed humans would all gather in one place, and The One was created to be their religious figure, helping to distract them from renewed war with the machines. Both forms of control.

            But even with Zion and The One, the unpredictability of choice ("systemic anomoly") still forced the machines to occasionally "reload" the Matrix. This always occurs when The One reaches the Source, which he can only do after attaining the level of power necessary for him to defeat the Merovingian, obtain the Keymaker, etc. The One program is then temporarily reinserted into the Source (machine mainframe), in preparation for the next iteration of the Matrix. In the process the machines gain the knowledge and experiences of The One, allowing them to better predict the future behavior of the humans, and thus reduce the systemic anomolies.

            So that is the situation at the start of the sixth iteration of the choice-Matrix. Luckily for the humans, however, the Oracle does not want them to be enslaved in the Matrix any longer, or for the freed humans to be killed. She therefore decides to take a risk and use Neo to bring about a "revolution".

            In M1 (The Matrix) she meets with The One, Neo, as she has done in the five previous iterations of the Matrix. Normally she simply helps guide The One to his meeting with the Architect. Except this time the Oracle gives Neo a special cookie, which he eats. The cookie isn't actually a cookie, though, it's an upgrade to Neo's program. Since the Oracle created the The One program, she can predict exactly what Neo will do in the future, specifically how he will destroy Smith (from the inside, with some copying from Neo to Smith occuring). She therefore includes in the program upgrade code that will give Smith the ability to replicate himself, and for Neo and Smith to see the future as she does.

            In M2 (The Matrix Reloaded) Neo plays out his role as The One, meeting with the Architect. However, due to his love for Trinity he chooses the left door, preventing the Matrix from reloading. This was seen in advance by the Oracle, as she has the ability to predict Neo's behavior (as explained above) as well as human behavior in general (due to the nature of her program). She therefore told Trinity that she would fall in love with Neo (in M1), all the while knowing it would eventually cause Neo to choose the left door.

            In M3 (The Matrix Revolutions) the Oracle's plan comes to fruition. While the machines begin their assualt on Zion (for the sixth time), Smith continues to replicate himself throughout the Matrix. Neo, on the otherhand, is stuck in the train station. Apparently, fulfilling his mission to meet with the Architect unlocks some section of his program that allows Neo to use his enhanced implants to once again become part of the machine collective (perhaps because of the Oracle's upgrade?). He is therefore able to sense and control other machines wirelessly. The first example of this is when he stops the sentinels at the end of M2. Since he is not quite ready to use his new abilities, however, his program gets stuck at the security checkpoint of the Matrix, the train station.

            In the train station Neo meets with Rama Kandra, his wife, and their daughter Sati. Rama and his wife are both machines from the real world who can jack into the Matrix, like all other machines, and live human lives. Sati is a program created by these two machines out of love, which Rama explains to Neo is not out of the grasp of the machines. They are on their way back into the Matrix to leave Sati with the Oracle for safe keeping, as any program without a purpose is deleted.

            After being rescued from the train station by Trinity, Morpheus, and Seraph, Neo is helped out of the Matrix using the standard jack. While aboard the Hammer he has another vision of the future, this time of the three power lines leading from the Matrix power station to 01, the machine city (he is able to see the power lines due to his newfound connection to the machine collective). He therefore takes the Logos, along with Trinity, and leaves for 01. Along the way he confronts the stowaway Bane (who has the Smith program inside of him), and is blinded by him. Although blind, Neo is still able to see other machines (orange glow), including the Smith program inside Bane, which he uses to defeat Bane. He also uses his power to control other machines to detonate the bombs fired at the Logos by the 01 defenses.

            Meanwhile Smith is replicating out of control in the Matrix, and eventually confronts the Oracle after taking over Seraph and Sati. They have a brief conversation in which he calls her "Mom", referring to the fact that she helped to create him (along with the Architect) as well as Neo (part of his program now). The Oracle then tells Smith to "Do what you came here to do.", so he takes over her as well. The newly formed Smith then stands up and laughs hysterically, foreshadowing the events at the end of the movie.

            Eventually the Logos crashes in 01, but not before Neo gets a top-down view of the orange glowing city with his newfound machine-vision (notice the fractal patterns). Unfortunately Trinity is killed in the crash, and explains to Neo that both of them have been living on borrowed time. Neo since he was ressurected by Trinity, and Trinity since she was ressurected by Neo. Both are meant to die and Trinity is simply happy for the oportunity this time to tell Neo how she feels about him. (But shame on the brothers for killing off Trinity in such a lame way. Couldn't she have at least died trying to save the ship, not just letting it crash!)

            Neo then leaves the Logos and enters the machine building into which it crashed (the building is seen in the same orange glowing machine-vision). He is then confronted by the Deus Ex Machina, who knows that Neo is the only one who can stop Smith from destroying the Matrix, but still shows hatred toward Neo (due to the fact that he is mostly human). After a show of force, the Deus Ex Machina agrees to peace with the humans in exchange for Neo's promise to destroy Smith. This causes the sentinels to halt their attack on the Zion temple, the last holdout of the remaining humans (the dock and city have already been destroyed).

            The machines then jack Neo into the Matrix, since he has not yet masterred the ability to do so wirelessly (this theme of Neo having to learn to use his new abilities runs throughout the trilogy). Neo then confronts Smith, who says he has seen the future, and that he (the one particular Smith) is the one that defeats Neo. The other Smiths (all of the other people in the Matrix have now been taken over by him) therefore only watch as the fight begins.

            After a brutal battle Neo is near defeat, but continues to fight. When asked why he does so, Neo responds "Because I choose to.", echoing the theme in M2 that "Everything begins with choice." (the only way humans achieve true freedom). But even though he delivers a stunning punch to Smith which sends him through the ground, Neo is eventually defeated. Before Smith takes him over he pauses, however, realizing that he has seen this very moment in his visions, and he already knows what he is going to say. "Everything that has a beginning has an end..." he mutters confusedly. This causes Neo to realize that the Oracle still exists somewhere inside of Smith, and that she is partially able to control his thoughts. Taking his cue from the Oracle, Neo freely gives himself to Smith.

            Thus Neo is defeated, and Smith's original purpose, to defeat The One (which he is never really expected to achieve, which leads to his bad temperment) is accomplished. Smith therefore no longer has a purpose and must be deleted. But since programs marked for deletion must return to the source, how is Smith to be deleted? Simple, the machines send the command through Neo, into Smith, using a burst of energy. This causes all of the Smith clones, and the original Smith, to be deleted, leaving the original inhabitants of the bodies he has taken over (this is a basic function of the agent programs, that they leave their hosts as they found them, with death being the only exception).

            This then completes another revolution in the Matrix cycle, as The One has reached the Source and has reinserted the prime program (Neo's program, his knowledge and experiences). The Matrix is then reloaded back to it's initial state, the late 20th century.

            The Oracle then meets with Sati, Seraph, and the Architect in a park outside the city as the sun rises over it. The Architect tells her that she was playing a "very risky game", and she asks him if he will honor the promise of peace. He says that he will, since he is not human (meaning humans do not keep their promises, an insult). This means that those people who unconsciously become aware of the Matrix and choose to leave will be freed, and those living in Zion will not be killed. The war between man and machine is over, or at least suspended.

            Looking upon the sunrise the Oracle asks Sati if that was her doing, and the girl responds that she did it for Neo (made the sun rise). Apparently Neo's experience with love, which was uploaded from him to the Source, caused the machines to show pity on Sati and give her a purpose instead of deleting her. She is now in control of the sun. Sati also asks the Oracle if they will ever see Neo again, and the Oracle replies that they might, indicating that the The One program will be used again in the future, as it had been for the previous six iterations of the Matrix. M3 therefore ends where M1 began, except that now the humans who become aware of the Matrix will be freed (a decent compromise if you ask me).

                      shit Nekra, I just C&P'd this from another dudes post...that some insight brotha

                      but I can see the point you bring, they coded everyone to live a specific life, and if this was fate in order for things to grow expand and so on, then maybe they coded neo with these exta sensory abilities that led everyone to believe he was GOD like

                        exactly doom.... the machines were exploiting humans sense of faith and used neo as a religious figure as a form of control

                          Ok I just saw the 3rd one. If the food that is given to neo is upgrades then what exact upgrade is it? Basic powers in the matrix? If thats so then really ....couldnt anyone be "the one"? Perhaps the choice was more random, a pitiful person who had a shallow existence within the matrix (easily converted to another form of reality), but he also had extensive compasionate qualites that "the one's" before him lacked. French guy wasnt compasionate at all, he was a power hungry jerk. When it came down to it, he wasnt willing to give his life. Perhaps he had too much to live for, whereas Neo had nothing to lose right from the start. If Neo fought for love alone then perhaps THAT was part of the upgrade. It did seem weird that here was this guy that lived alone in a hole like a hermet and then he takes this pill and poof... he is surrounded by friends and people who love him.

                            People loved him due to the prphetic tendancies of Morpheaus.. and more importantly, The Oracle, who made the choice to help the humans this time. By placing all hope for humans with Neo their psuedo-savior, he was to act as a form of control.... there is no reference(that I can tell) of Neo being chosen randomly.

                              morpheous would be the biblical equvalent to moses, only difference is that god told moses what he was, morpheous had to explain to neo what he could become...but either way, when a "supreme being" is too come about there has to be a prophet to go out and speak the beliefs he has, some will follow, others will stay with their own beliefs

                              And as far as agent smith goes, he could very well be the devil...once banished, god could no longer control him, he became his own entity, as did smith

                              nice insight aurora
