Re:*SPOILER* "Matrix Reloaded"
It wasn’t really important to see the last flight of the osiris, as that just showed a very small portion of what was too come, i.e the osiris saw what the machines was up too, building a massive army of squidy’s and using massive drills that were placed directly above Zion to attack it, the osiris was then seen and the squidy’s attacked the Osiris, the osiris couldn’t use the EMP as they had to get a message to the post box to warn of the impending attack, so they sent someone in to deliver it, she made it, but the osiris was destroyed shortly after.
I think the Matrix is a smaller program and that Neo, Zion and the agents are all the same…computer simulations, it is a pre-designed
scenario designed to give mankind one thing…hope, but it’s a false hope, it’s meant to make the human race believe that they can be free, when in fact they never can be, and this program has been run countless times and that’s why Zion has been destroyed time and again, perhaps someone in the real ‘REAL’ world someone does start to behave differently and the big computer (that really controls the Matrix) runs the Matrix scenario to dispel any thoughts of what’s really going on, I think that’s what the keymaker really is, he knows that Neo and the rest don’t truly exist, although I think he either doesn’t know for sure or he can’t make himself stand out too much as he is the only one that is truly real, perhaps he feels that he can use both Neo’s and the Matrix’s programming to attack the main computer and really free the human race.
Or it could be that if he is the architect, he is the one human allowed to live in the real world to maintain the Matrix programming, he finally decides he is sick of what is going on and finds a way to destroy the main computer that controls the Matrix, he may have created Neo (each tiime the program/person is different) under instruction from the main computer to run this scenario again, only this time he’s tweaked ‘The One’s’ programming to essentially make Neo a rogue virus that can destroy the main computer. However, he needs to enter the Matrix to guide the Neo program to execute it’s goal without actually telling Neo and the rest that they don’t really exist and they are not fighting for their lives, but his and maybe a few thousand others, maybe mankind is not made up of millions, but a few thousand in reality and he needs the Neo program he created to destroy it.
So destroying Zion for a sixth time is how many times the architect has seen it happen in his life time, yet he may have had many predeccessors who have witnessed it countless times, all because it is part of the Matrix simulation and that’s how it always plays out.
I think the wachowskis are doing a wizard of oz on a grander scale, and the whole story is a dream within a dream.
I could be wrong, but the whole concept of the Matrix is designed to make you think and give you shock value, in the first film we were astounded to learn that Thomas Anderson lived in a dream world, now take that premise up a notch and we then are shocked to find out that Neo is also living in a dream world created to cloud his mind, the bubble inside a bubble, of course by this stage your head starts to hurt!!!, and in a way it’s dangerous as some guillable people in the audience will then start to question their own reality.
And that Peter Chung bloke is a bit thick isn’t he!?!, he wrote ‘I didn’t understand why the people of Zion regarded Neo with such reverence, since we never see them witnessing him doing any of his superhuman feats in the Matrix.’, why should they?, no one today saw Jesus in action but they still believe in him, the people of Zion know Neo is the one and that’s all they need too know, what does Chung expect, they all pack into the Matrix just so they can see Neo in action, they would all be at risk from agents….Chung you’re a dummy!!!
He also wrote ‘For that matter, I’m not sure what relevance the struggles in the Matrix have to the man-machine conflict in the real world. How exactly is Neo’s journey to “the source” of the Matrix supposed to protect Zion from the machines’ imminent invasion? ‘,…erm, this guy doesn’t pay much attention does he, Neo needs to be there to keep the Matrix busy while the rest have to get to the other humans to free their minds, as we saw in the first film it’s not a case of ‘Hi, just dropped by to let you know you’re living in a dream world’, each human has to be freed over time, they need to believe the truth before they can be freed, you can’t do that after a cup of tea and five minute chat with Morpheus, especially seeing as Thomas Andeson already knew of the Matrix and therefore was slightly easier too convince, no one else does and convincing them is a damn sight harder…so Chung, do your homework.
