In the matrix the world is an illusion, and when you escape the matrix you discover another world that is even shittier than the illusion.

A world in which human bodies are used to provide energy to run the matrix (where do these bodies get their energy from isn't explained - presumably from the sun which is used to grow crops to feed the human bodies (but why not use sheep? - or just use the sun directly) - but then why would they need to develop a matrix?)
None of it made any sense.

But I enjoyed the first one and have seen it at least 10 times.


The world where humans were being used as flesh batteries is the exact reality we live in today.  It is the illusion.  We are being farmed for our spiritual energy.

Mcdonalds drain the spirit of their workers to produce hamburgers, so I'd have to agree with that (your crazy talk sometimes makes sense)


The deeper you get down the rabbit hole, the more it will make sense.

Yep, just about every scene is littered with literal and metaphorical meanings, and the Wachowskis demonstrate this by their other films. The premise of the Matrix is much more literal than it may seem at first glance.

The Matrix Trilogy Decoded by Mark Passio - watch this in conjunction with the films, if you haven't watched them in a while.

Cloud Atlas, the Wachowski's sequel (kinda) to The Matrix.

Everything Wrong With The Matrix In 12 Minutes Or Less - Hilarious!

I watched the whole matrix decoded, and it's pretty good.
After that i really wanted to watch the movies again so i started watching part 1 again.
I really didn't noticed in the past this movie was about our world at all, i tought it was about some fantasy world.
But now I realise they where talking about our world.

I don't like Sci-Fi in particular, but matrix was ok, since it was so cool made. I like popular movies and that is the reason i watched it, so if someone asks me if i watched i can say yes Smiley

Here is another site which recently has said about the upcoming new matrix movies, it seems like Jupiter ascending will be crucial for the matrix movies to be developed

Where did you hear this information??  Please link a valid article explaining this.

I would be excited if its not a reboot...but rather a prequel/sequel

They need to redeem themselves from the horrible 2nd and 3rd movies...

Im on work now so here are some infos. When i came home i will post another link.

Also there are 2-3 nice clips with agent smith and morpheus on youtube so you can check it out.

Hmm, your first link is old news from 2011, which never amounted to anything unfortunately.

The 2nd one is interesting, but it still is just a rumor(As it says in the title)  no one from the matrix has come out and said it is happening.  Also-Any clips of Morpheus and Agent smith fighting on youtube are from the first 3 movies.

Which brings me to my next point.  Don't Smoke Crack

Seems like the new matrix trilogy will be filming in last quarter of 2015, only 1 character is confirmed and that is agent Smith, no other info will it be reboot or new time line.

Also there are confirmations of that there are scripts for 4th and 5th part of matrix.

Seems like they spend all money they earn in last 10 years so they need more  Grin

Ah, thanks for that clarification. I'd think that human mechanical heat would be insignificant compared to any form of nuclear power though, so that seems to weaken the plot a bit...

The perfet anology of what our world actually is IMO, well the 1st one.  Then it goes onto potential IMO.  Furthermore I LLLOVE the fact that they point out the idea of reality.

For if you believe beyond a shadow of a doubt everything around you is real.. you've got a lot of learning to do, a lot.

For an even closer analogy of the future, the story could have been that it wasn't war between man and the machines, it was just the fact that no one could afford to live a normal life, so we all had to plug ourselves in to a simulation because it was the only way any of us will be able to experience decent living standards.  That, and renting yourself out as a battery is the only available "job" anyone has left because the economy imploded in a debt-vortex (unless, of course, you have some bitcoin, in which case you won't need to resort to such drastic measures  Cheesy ).



In the matrix the world is an illusion, and when you escape the matrix you discover another world that is even shittier than the illusion.

A world in which human bodies are used to provide energy to run the matrix (where do these bodies get their energy from isn't explained - presumably from the sun which is used to grow crops to feed the human bodies (but why not use sheep? - or just use the sun directly) - but then why would they need to develop a matrix?)
None of it made any sense.

It's the chi, qi, prana, orgone, zero-point, etheric, life force energy they are harnessing. In a desperate act, the humans destroyed the skies, because the machines were powered by solar energy.


According to the film:  "The human body generates more bioelectricity than a 120-volt battery and over 25,000 BTUs of body heat. Combined with a form of fusion, the machines had found all the energy they would ever need."

Although this isn't actually true since over the course of a day, a single human body generates between 6000 and 10,000 BTUs.  I guess Morpheus didn't specify a timescale to be fair.  Maybe he meant 25000 BTUs a week, heh.

Got all three plus animatrix.
Soundtracks were good, too; Clubbed to Death is one of my favorites:
