Subject: DIDNT I JUST SAY NO MORE ZION MATRIX CRAP?
In reply to: sith 's message, "Cyrus has right" on 22:07:59 06/18/03 Wed

How many times do I have to explain it? It's really getting tiresome. Let me try one more time. Here goes.

This movie, up till now, is a story in which a guy named Neo finds that the world is false and through an ordeal of personal discover, escapes from this world and ends up in a city called zion. Zion is a city for rogue humans who do not willingly accept the matrix. There is a BIG plot twist, however, at the end of reloaded when you find out that the city called zion is actually all part of the diabolical computer scheme to account for a flaw in the matrix, namely the one where only 99% of human accept the matrix so something must be done to account for the other 1%. In fact, we find out that there have been several zions before the present one, but they were all destroyed in a timely fashion when there population grew to big, and "the one" is actually the person chosen to restart it.

Now, this plot twist, while brilliant in its own right, being probably the main reason I loved this movie, would mean absolute CRAP if zion ended up being simply another matrix. The ENTIRE second movie would be pointless, as we find that not only is neo actually NOT free, which seems to be the main idea up till now, but Zion is also not actually under attack. If, as you all seem to want to believe, zion is just another matrix, then what the hell is the point of destroying it with sentinels? Why not just zap a shit load of agents into the bodies of the people of zion? didn't think of that? Well, it's true. If Neo and morpheus and all the other bastards are still plugged into the matrix, then they could be taken over by agents?

This is only the start of a longwinded paragraph on things that wouldn't make since if zion was a matrix, such as the fact that the body agent smith took over doesn't look like agent smith. Or that him cutting his hand would seem meaningless. Or that millions of people would be driven mad by such a STUPID plot twist.

There, I'm done. In case any of you still feel obliged to convince the world of Zion's Matrixablility, retroactively convincing them of your retardability, please post your name and address, and I will personally come to your house when the next movie is released and slap the crap out of you.

Thank you.
