Listen Noc, I don't want to dwell on this longer than I have to: I'm not saying
the machines absolutely use IN VITRO to create new humans. What I meant to
say was that machines do in fact have easy ways of creating new humans, be it
the aformentioned method or another...

I still don't think the whole "Matrix within a Matrix" concept is what it boils down too, personally I think that's too lame for the Watchhagmrkgkgkoski brothers. oOo:

I think they left you thinking "What the hells going to happen now?". Also, the fact that Neo fainted when he attacked the machines makes me believe he's not in a Matrix, too.

Ok, I finished the ETM game, and have a few more things to add:

1) That girl, Penelophia or whatever her name is, defineatly has something to do with the storyline. I think shes a program that was built by the French Guy holding the Keymaker prisioner. When she kissed Neo, she defineatly did something, because she did the same thing to Ghost in the game.

2) In the movie, when Neo fights the first three agents and leaves, who is he looking for, the Oracle? He goes to an empty apartment and says "Where are you?"

3) Ghost (Niobe's 1st mate, the chinese guy with the gotee & mustache) is in love with Trinity, but he's somewhat of a monk, and knows he can't have her because she loves Neo, and he's in celibicy.

Also, the French Guy's cronies, even the one the chick shot with the pee-shooter are vampires. A few ways to tell:

1) They were watching a movie with vampires in it.

2) When she shoots the first one she says "My husband kept them because they're hard as hell to kill. How many people do you know keep silver bullets in their gun?" Silver kills vampires.

3) In the game, all of his cronies are vampires.

I wonder if this reflects to what the Oracle said about "Everytime you hear someone talk about a ghost, vampire, warewolf, or alien, it's someone changing a program in the Matrix."

Sorry to keep posting, I keep forgetting shit!

Also, if you watched the trailer for the 3rd one, you'll see a guy for a splitsecond, that looks a little like Christphor Lloyd (Doc from Back to the Future) with long hair. In the game, when Niobe is going to use the phone to leave, he walks up laughing saying ". . .72 hours. . .72 hours" She says "What's 72 hours?" He goes "Thats how long it took to drestroy Zion the last time, 72 hours!" She goes "Who are you?" He says "Just someone along for the ride. . ." then he walks away, and keeps saying 72 hours.

hmmmm all this conversation has led me to decide to see this amazing film once more.


Could it be the "real world" with Zion in it is simply Version 5? Or the Matrix is Version 6 and the "real world" is gonna be the next matrix; Matrix Version 7?

Hmm...

I still think the emotions of love play a big part in this movie. It is how Neo became the one, and also how he determined the fate of the world.

there is one thing that we can be absolutely certain of, and that is that Persephone (Monica Belluci) has the finest ass (and rest of body) ever.

When the Merovingian (whatever he's called) says "I survived your predecessors, and I will survive you", does he mean, Neo's predecessors, or the predecessors of the rebels and everyone plugged into the Matrix?

I was just thinking, that the Matrix is a giant computer program, right? Well, i hope its not on the Windows OS, or that thing will crash.

The blue screen of death:
"Windows has encountered a fatal error in C:Program Files/TheMatrix/country/USA/NJ/city/br/person/GregMatlesky. The Matrix will now have to reboot. press any key to be spawned again"
biggrin:

Thats Werewolves. Crosses, wooden stakes, garlic, and sunlight kill vampires. Also a cutting a vampire in half down the middle with an enchanted sword seems to kill weaker vampires(Vamp. Hunter D).
