Its all gravy

#31

That’s a very debatable topic, and it needs a different thread completely. :wink:
The Matrix relied on the brain power of multiple humans to power itself, and wiped out complete Zion number of times to ultimately make it a part of the program. I would say, a smart move.
At the same time, Skynet is a giant conscious and is less advanced than Matrix (as depicted in the movie). It is worthy opponent, but in the end, Mr Smith would be like…

Such a shame, Wachowski didn’t do the original plot.
I read somewhere, that their first plan was no happy end. After death in the 3-d part Neo wakes up in the Architect’s room and asks him “wtf?” The Architect sais that the Struggle and Smith and Zion are no more than another simulation and this was the 7-th Zion and the sae version of Matrix.

Nice.

Also, check out, what this guy in the link writes. He probably didn’t see the Animatrix but he sais some obvious things. Maybe the plot blank spaces didn’t allow Matrix get over Arni.

The sequels definitely were an overdo, especially Revolutions. I guess it would have been a bold move to create a movie like The Matrix, which already had a complex plot, and give it an indie-movie type ending. This was not a feature in late 90s and early 00s.
Today filmmakers take more liberty with the ending and try to surprise us. I think Animatrix was a good step. Something similar can be done as an experiment.

Also, this guy’s ideas are pretty mainstream in today’s time. Nevertheless, you can tell that to a kid, get him excited, make him watch Matrix: Revolutions and see hopes and dreams of a kid die. :slight_smile:
