bLaDe:
Totally amazing movie, excelled in all aspects, really cant critique it at all. The philosphcial and religious overtones were dope! I have some questions, since none of the above people who watched Reloaded asked any, they might be able to help me ...
WARNING....SPOILERS BELOW...!
Now, how Neo managed to control the sentinals astonished me. Going by this theory, there is a possibility Neo could have unlocked telikinetic powers, but I dunno, I doubt the Bros. would impose such a storyline. It has to do something with the matrix. That's why Neo said, "There is something diffrent...I can feel them" .. or something similar. That also throws the ship-used-emp-to-shut-them-down theory out the window, unless Neo was on crack or something lol.
Hmm it couldn't be because Neo somehow found a way to utilize the skills he learned in the matrix in "reality", resulting in superhuman abilities. I do beleive that the skills learned in the Matrix(Trinity learning to fly a helicopter for e.g) are retained in the real world as well. So they would know their kung fu, only wouldnt be to good at is pyshcialy, since they wouldnt have the muscles and flexibility needed to pull off the moves.
Another theory of mine is, it might be a matrix, within a matrix...Maby their "Reality" is actually another matrix and they havent really awoken. A matrix-within-a-matrix would be an alright, but not-too-creative idea; however, it doesn't make much sense. We all know Neo, Trinity and the gang can hack into the matrix, resulting in their super-human abilities shown in the matrix, then why couldn't they practise these powers in the "sub-matrix" ? And say If this sub-matrix was powerful, why isn't the same code or whatever used in the big matrix? It is a possibility that Neo and Smith copied stuff off each other, like the techjoecool said. Still, this is not very clear, we can only make assumtions and theories, can't frieking wait for Matrix Revolutions!
Another thing which confuses me, is how Smith was able to get in the pyshicial/real world(assuming it really is 'real) ... Like another person said before me, they percieved the human brain as a computer as well, thats why they tried to hack into Morpheus's brain in The Matrix. So perhaps Smith found a way to hack into Bane's mind and imprint himself on to it, resulting in manipulating him. In one scene, Bane/Smith cuts his palm a few times, and watches it bleed. I think thats because he finally has the ability to FEEL, and realise the sensation of pain and is facinated by the humanity he has assumed, the blood, the vulnerability.
Oh yeah did anybody notice how the machines seem to mirror humans more and more. But we know the reason humans rebel, they have desire, emotions, thirst for freedom. Why do people like Smith rebel? I mean, since when did he get human-like emotions and feelings? These programes/machines are programmed for one task, when they screw up, they are supposed to be assimilated, but some, apprently, choose not to be assimilated and "rebel". How and why? They are not supposed to have choices, they are only supposed to be made for one purpose only, like the Agents are supposed to track down human rebels and stuff like that only.
The amazing conversation between the Architect and Neo was one of my fav. parts, but also one of the most confusing. Now his words threw the whole perception of reality and their lives out the window. But why would the Architect tell Neo the truth anyway? Maby he was bluffing?
Now the merovingian scene was dope. Hilarious, and intelligent; a very important element of the science of the matrix. He also proved that code could be indigested and alter people. (This was also shown in the matrix 1, anyone remember when the oracle gave neo the cookie? and this time gave him a candy, which looked just like a red pill??)
Who exactly is/was the merovingian(sp) though? His wife told Neo that the merovingian was just like Neo a long time ago, what does that mean? Was he the "one" or something similar? Is he a mere program? I'm assuming he doesnt have a "free mind" and is still attached to the matrix, right?
Oh and the keymaker claims that the door will be accessible for exactly 314 seconds. I'm assuming the number has a significance, because almost everything is symbolic in the matrix movies, the 101 number relating to Neo for example. Any thoughts on what it could represent? Pi maby? (3.14...)
So basicly, the following are a few questions which have me perplexed...:
1. How did Neo stop the sentinals in the 'real-world'?
2. How exactly did former Agent Smith posess Bane and why couldn't he have done this before?
3. Who/What exactly is the Merovingian?
4. Why do programs and machines go somewhat 'against' the 'system' and 'rebel'?
5. Does the number '314' represent anything?
Ahh, I love this movie ;D
