Oh my GOD!!!! (only come here if seen film. Spoilers)

[Arc_Angel]

OMG this film was awesome
I agreee with tim on liking the ending, was rather strnge but I saw Neo dying coming a mile off.
I reckon they're gonna try for another film in a while!

 

[timdgreat]

actually ArcA from what i have heard in the rumor mill and read from articles the Wachowski brothers are not planning on doing another one.:rolly2:

 

[Arc_Angel]

Oh really! They should do <pouts>

 

[timdgreat]

i totaly agree, and i will sigh any petition that comes my way, but its their choice:rolly2:

 

[Arc_Angel]

I know, oh well we can hope can't we!

 

[cersei]

sig of smoking?

any idea if significane of new Oracle shell smoking like chimney whereas previous one did not?

 

[timdgreat]

mabye she was nervous?:rolly2:

 

[Spudnik]

previous one did so!

 

[pkgrl]

New movie? Naw, but they will be continuing the story in the online game coming next year.

And the Oracle smoked in the first movie, too. It feels like this one smokes more because we see her for a longer period of time than we did previously.

 

[timdgreat]

thats true she did have longer scenes in this movie, hey Pkgrl where did u hear that? the official site?:rolly2:

 

[cersei]

Matirx Online game...

oops me bad about smoking. Yes the previous one did too but seems much less.

as for Online Game, it is being written by W Bros so I presume some form of conflict will continue in the Matrix world (as far as I know, gameplay confined to this world only so far). As to source of conflict I don't know...I do know they have very carefully not mentioned any Agents as such.

keep track of it at www.thematrixonline.com

 

[timdgreat]

cool thanks cersei, ill keep up now:rolly2:

 

[pkgrl]

Yeah, cersei is DEFINATELY the One (hehe) to ask about the online game... at least, around here. I don't have the time to get into that kind of thing... although I will be scoping out as many Matrix scenes as I can while I'm in Sydney next month. :naughty:

 

[timdgreat]

aww no fair:rolly2:

 

[Tabitha]

Well folks, I finally saw Revolutions, and I think I saw some very different things in it than you guys did.

I think it is very significant that Sati plays such a large role in this movie. Well, okay, it isn't that large, but I think it is important.

The fact that Seraph and Sati, and the Oracle and the Architect are the characters who end the film kind of backs up my feeling that this is a Matrix-within-a-Matrix. In fact, I have gone even further over the edge, and decided that this final film in particular is all about a revolution within the Machine hierarchy.

The conversation between the Oracle and the Architect at the end - she asks him something along the lines of 'will the others go free?'. This seems to be the central point of their truce, and I can't imagine that line referring to Zion, it just doesn't feel right to me. I think it is referring to the rebel programs - which we learned more about in the train station. I got the overriding impression that the Oracle was using the humans to wage war on the Architect's order for her own purposes - to free the rebel programs.

I know it isn't a very well developed idea, but the seemingly pat ending, with Neo sacrificing himself to win a truce with the machines for the people of Zion didn't seem to be the message we were left with at the end.

I have to think about it more, but if anyone wants to pick apart my theory go right ahead - it is more of an instinct than an informed conclusion after all

 

[timdgreat]

its an interesting theory Tab, i can see the sense in it, i got the impression however (as im sure most people did) that the Oracle meant the other people still pluged into the matrix, at least the ones that wanted out given a choice.

as for poking holes in ur theory ill let others do that:rolly2:

 

[pkgrl]

It's an awesome theory, Tabitha, and one that gave me pause.

But I have to think that if the humans weren't really "awake," ie seperated from the matrix, then why would we need to see their war? Why show us all the squiddies attacking? Once Neo and Trin are gone, why bother with showing us the Zionites ever again? If they're still in the matrix, then we as an audience don't need to be kept plugged into THEIR perceived reality, do we?

I just finished watching Revolutions and will have to agree that it is good.

I could have done with shorter battle scenes but then it would probably have been too short.

Of the three I like this one the best, at least this one had a beginning and end (of sorts). It made more sense to me than the other two though without the first two it probably wouldn’t have. I’d say if anyone has watched the first two then watching this one is a must!
