Whhhaaaa The movie didn't go how books say a movie should go. Sure that might be true, but that's not what the movie is. Cringely comparing it to Star Wars made me think he would like Metal by Numbers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=chiVMrWMHko

The whole part about Neo's agency is still a big thing in our current time, Free will isn't a thing, not in the material sense anyway.

Merovingian Cause and effect speech is Karma explained.

The agents aren't in direct control of the architect, they are autonomous agents (like bots) The architect made them, he does not remote control them. The don't know anything about the plans of the architect.

The architect scene is like Lovecraft spewing tentacles right into your ears, something to behold and probably not comprehensible when you watch it the first time. {I had to wait for the DVD because of age, and I had to turn on the subtitles, rewind and couple of times and get a dictionary and I believe an encyclopedia.}

And it cuts short, the final scene is another plot-point in all (Neo's powers in the real world) ... Also the BANE plotline never mentioned (only shown in a quick shot of him lying in the medic-bay at the end).

Also, the twins and the vampires... pretty cool commentary on old myths, totally missed that part.

Ah, probably going to take some time to view the revolutions one. But man, reloaded is my favorite movie. Because it gives so many perspectives on determinism and how it related to the material world (aspects as love, choice, are you really good/bad or just so by design, if you don't know the design is the illusion of choice not what one drives?, What is designed?, If your whole body is designed and your whole life is, is there something not designed? )

This is a review on how to not make a movie by the books illustrated by The matrix: Reloaded as example.

[So it should be: what went right?]

Great insights. I think the title was click bait. I just thought it was an interesting analysis.

It's interesting what gets reactions on SaidIt. I try not to post bad stuff and even delete if I post before I'm finished and found it lacking. Some stuff is kinda interesting on some level. And in this case I why not.

It's good for the conversation because it's a thing a lot of people say 'the sequels sucked'.

I really liked reloaded (and revolutions, I will handle in a bit) because The Matrix (the first one) was about freedom and the analogy in part 2 that is made with freedom being another system of control. Something akin to the 'narrative' in media, it's just a word to guide people. Thinking about freedom or acting upon your concept of freedom isn't freedom, freedom isn't freedom, it's just another concept to compartmentalize yourself.

This movie (reloaded) set me off thinking about the whole system, for the system to be free does that mean it's parts are supposed to be free as well?

You mean like decentralization?

Freedumb is Murican, so free they have the most prisoners in history - more in prison than the 7 least populated states.

    I can watch people completely disagree about something and still agree with both of them.

    Is it a big red pill to swallow or is it small? Depends if you're a man or a mouse. It can be both.

    I agree with most of the points of these critical videos but I still love me some Matrix movies and lore.

      I strive to know as much as possible and believe as little as I can.

      Great quote. (Added to #5 : /s/Religion/comments/di6/20190219_birthdate_of_the_new_religion_trutherism/ )

      Most definitely not always agree with both, but sometimes I can, and at least understand various views.

        Interesting site.

        If I could go back in time with any influence, I would have tried to push the "Truther" community to be the "Truth Seeker" community.

          Truth seeking is a personal trip.

          Exactly. Plus it more accurately describes it. My mom think that truthers think they think they know it all - she's only half woke.

          Who am I to say. I may be just a brain in a vat with wires connected to a computer running a simulation of reality.

            I posted Calvin & Hobbes and The Far Side YouTube videos just this week.

            Is there another docu I should know of?

            If you or someone you know is new to Trutherism I recommend scrolling down to my Truther Newbie Crash Course: /s/SaidItSurveys/comments/9hi/saiditsurvey_how_to_gently_red_pill_newbie/

            • Level 1 - Introductory Skepticism Toward The Media, Authority, History, And War

            • Level 1B - 9/11, The Very Origin Of The Globalists War Of Terror, Begun With False Flag Lies

            • Level 2 - Introductory Skepticism Toward All Establishment Systems

            I started this minor project a couple months ago, so much of it is incomplete, but there are lots of books and movies listed. I keep procrastinating filling more in. I aim to clean up the documentaries next. https://infogalactic.com/info/Truther_Top_20s

            It's to back up and support one of my two main projects: https://infogalactic.com/info/Trutherism_101

            I always loved this channel - but I subbed for "Thug Notes" - before it was Wisecrack - I haven't seen the well-read Balla in a long time :(

            The cast and crew of the Matrix were asked to read these three books:
