Films generally have a happy ending. What kinda ending would it be to find out that were all just inside another matrix and that we can never win and are destined to be enslaved by the machines?
We have to have hope, something to believe in.
Also note that while the machines are logical n stuff, surely they could understand and maybe predict human emotions. You see Smith get angry in matrix1, and you see him have fun in matrix2. It seems the only one they don't do, is love. But i think it was hinted at by the French dude and his woman. Even if its just an emulation of emotion, clearly they are getting it right. For that reason, they would know that Neo would go and save Trinity because at that point being ruled by emotion, his loved one dying, saving her is the logical choice. They still have 24hrs to then save Zion.
The machines must understand us pretty well as 99% of the time they are right, they duped 99% of us into believing.
The architect says that essentially they created the one, is that really true? Isn't it more of a design flaw in their system that they've just decided to take advantage of? If they really did design the one, then surely they could just as easily undesign him and not have to threaten him with destroying humanity. I think they're scared of what the one could actually become. Like the guy said, they tried a perfect world but it didn't work, people didn't accept it. So a lesser mind created the current matrix, but with 99% probability of people accepting it. Maybe the machines felt this was acceptable, and then decided on a way to keep the other 1% in check.
Anyone else feel that the only reason for the matrix is to power the matrix? If what Kronologic was saying is true, that the machines can't kill humans unless humans make the choice, then what do they do all day? It just hit me, they run the matrix, they use humans as batteries to power the matrix. The architect said they are willing to sacrifice the power from the matrix. Why? Because they wouldn't need the all that energy because they won't be running the matrix.
OMG *click* little light goes on in my head. Dreams. When you dream its real, its all real to you. "How can you tell the dream world from the real world?" It appears to have the same rules and stuff. Generally dreams aren't that far fetched, they make you believe. But i do remember reading of a technique to change all that. You remind yourself everyday that this its a dream. You keep telling yourself that you are dreaming, then when you do actually dream it kicks in and you "wake up" so to speak. You realise that you are dreaming, and then you break free. You can change your reality. Hmm bah felt like i was onto something then. Had a moment of clear thought, ya know the type of feeling when you think u understand everything. I'm sure someone will pickup on what I'm thinking there. I'm sure thats important somehow. I'm thinking that maybe anyone can be shown that the matrix isn't real, that we all have the potential to wake up from it.
I think the machines do fear what Neo will become, that is why they threaten him, that is why they say he must join the source. I think the machines fear loosing their only purpose, their only reason for existing. OMG thats it. That elder guy, he knows. Machines need us and we need machines. Machines only purpose is to serve man, they can't afford to kill us as they will have no purpose.
I didn't stay to watch the trailer for revoutions, but i think thats it.
On another note, today i've become more psychic than usual, and my typing speed for some reason has gone insanely faster than normal. All from watching matrix2
