still the best Duracell commercial
The whole movie is just a really creative Duracell commercial
If only they had had Neo fighting in one of those bunny suits
Change human being into Duracell ? NO NO STOP!
@@metalore well clearly they're advertising didn't work very well on me!
Joker Ted Cruz the whole world is a creative Duracell commercial
Still such a horrifying concept to me all these years later
I watched 'The Second Renaissance' from the Animatrix recently - big fucking mistake
Still a stupid concept, I mean I like the idea that we are living in the matrix, but that explanation why the matrix exist in the first place is absurd.
But it doesn't matter if we do our not
The real reason we live in the matrix isn’t so simple. But it is true we live in the matrix.
Luke Work just thinking about that today. Would of made more sense if they said that they were using humans as some sort of super computer so that the AI could create true consciousness for themselves . The matrix would of been something they made to keep our minds active and stable while they mined us for resources
Laurence Fishburne absolutely nailed this role. His absolutely perfect delivery of every word throughout this scene, the way he comes across as so knowledgeable and wise, as he slowly and calmly explains 'everything you have ever known is a lie and isn't real' and 'the world ended a long time ago, we live only in the remains of a destroyed earth barely surviving in a never ending war against machines', is chilling and awesome. That combined with the fantastic music, the lighting and colour of the shots, with the clever transitions in and out of TV screens, just perfect.
Perfectly perfectly written
Explanation exceptionally delivered.
Imagine they were planning to cast val Kilmer for this role 😅
even Morpheus is a program. A targeting program for the gifted. Just like the Mother. in the orginal script he and graphics, he gets like 5 "One's" killed, by leading them down a savior's path. That's the devil
Yes indeed. I love Lawrence fishburne in this movie.
"A.I.!?, you mean Artifical Intelligence?" "No Neo, I mean Allen Iverson...."
😂
To be fair, it was 1999
The “What is REAL?” question is one of the greatest thought-provoking speeches in the history of film
pyronite59 Teachers have used this scene is many a class.
Metaphysics ftw
What Israel?
Yes, and It ties in perfectly with what Morpheus himself asks Niobe at the end of the trilogy. "Is this real?"
And in mythology Morpheus is the god of dreams
"We marveled at our own magnificence." If there was a sentence to describe humanity, that's it.
Can you imagine if they didn’t dumb us down all the things we would’ve created for the good. Instead, evil took charge used it against us.
It describes individuals pretty well regarding themselves. But most view humanity as a whole little above Smith's views of us.
Describing billions of different beings in one sentence always goes wrong, just like in this awful sentence.
We're pretty fantastic, ngl. To quote Aristotle: "At his best, man is the noblest of all animals. Separated from law and justice, he is the worst".
“Indeed, the condition of human nature is just this; man towers above the rest of creation so long as he realizes his own nature, and when he forgets it, he sinks lower than the beasts. For other living things to be ignorant of themselves, is natural; but for man it is a defect.”
I always get a chuckle when I think about how Morpheus was probably like "Yo, when we load Neo into the Construct, load me in a battery so at the end of my speech I can have a cool prop to really drive my point home."
There were others before Neo who were freed from the Matrix. So the Duracell cell was a prop that was presumably loaded everytime as standard procedure.
😂😂😂😂 funny cause I kind of thought of the same
I thought he loaded the battery himself at the middle of the speech.
We thought the same
@Jk they probably stasis neo conscious first, then morpheus told the operator what it needed to be loaded so that his speech would make sense, morpheus entered and then they awoke neo conscious. just a theory tho
The level of despair this conversation in the desert instilled in me is something I will never forget. Such storytelling, such gravity.
I agree...
I was way too young when I saw this scene and it scared the hell out of me
I found it nonsense. Why was the sky still dark after centuries? Where did all the water go? Humans as batteries made me laugh. It was clear that everything Morpheus believed was propaganda. The funny thing is everything they show Neo isn't real. Zion is in the Matrix, the idea of humans as batteries is nonsense, and the man-machine war is a lie. What the REAL world looks like and who controls is it a mystery box that will never be opened.

2:47..... Morpheus's dialogue hit differently in 2023 when we see the proliferation of AI processors and Genarative programs like ChatGPT4.
So they’re going to take over the world?
@@master-of-many-fandoms2020no I think he refers to the part where humanity marvelled at giving birth to a single consciousness AI. That part is scary because it's the likely outcome.
The shot from 2:25 to 2:35 would still be incredible today. It's unreal how far ahead of its time this movie was.
Very unreal. Way ahead of its time. 1999? Wow. I love this wayyy more than that new Matrix film that just came out
I remember how disturbing it was the first time I saw it 🤭
Seriously! It looks like something from 2023
did they exit the construct program for that interval?
@@dutube99no its still the construct program
They couldnt think of anything better than "scorching the sky" ... humans
No there wasnt any option. Watch the 2nd renaissance.
Couldn't comprehend the idea of putting solar panels in orbit ... machines
SuperNovaJinckUFO they didn’t need to they masted nuclear energy and if they wanted to they could
@@caprisun6547 exactly, solar energy was the only thing left
By scorch the sky, they meant literally putting out enough nanomachines to block out the sun that when approached by anything that is machine, fries so yea. It's not that they didn't think of it, it's that they couldn't do it.
I've always wondered how Morpheus's glasses don't fall off
It's in the Construct, not real.
those are pince-nez glasses, they exist, you can buy them
@@jamostudios7596 What is real?
They lightly clamp onto the nose, as someone said you can buy them and you can see how it works.
Bro it's simple voodoo magic!
“What is real? How do you define real?” This quote proves the writing of this film is a masterpiece. It’s such a simple yet complex question that can’t truly be answered because we simply don’t know. In my personal opinion The Matrix is one of the most influential films of all time and my absolute favourites
The funny thing is everything they show him isn't real. Zion is in the Matrix, the idea of humans as batteries is nonsense, the man-machine war is a lie. What the REAL world looks like and who controls is it a mystery box that will never be opened. Asking what's real is a pointless question, asking how I can make it better is more important.
It's my story.
The whole trilogy is good but the first one is one of the best films ever.
"Fate, it seems, is not without a sense of irony." One of the all time great movie quotes.
One of my most favorite quotes
"It's not ironic, it's just coincidental." Bender, Futurama.

The greatness of this movie isn't just the groundbreaking action sequences. It's also the inherent philosophical themes.

@@impulse034 most people do. Truth is hell. That movie is a methapher to the real world. Most people like to hear the lies that policticans and media tells us. Taking the red pill makes you an enemy of modern society. They will fight you to stop you telling the truth. Truth is the only thing which can stop sardistic finacial psycos of our time. But most people are like you and prefere the blue one to become like Agent Smith without even knowing it.
'pulls down his pants' Hello rabbit hole!
"Liquify the dead so they could be fed intravenously to the living" is such a sickening concept you really feel the same disgust and fear that Neo does in that moment
Now imagine being on a generation spaceship where that's a necessity. No other matter for light-years in any direction, no choice but to recycle the elements of the dead. And poop. Today's poop would be tomorrow's lunch.
@@ExpressShirtself nah he died and was converted into food to be intravenously consumed by his young
Harkens back to a Charlton Heston classic -- "Soilent Green" (1960's ??).
Think about it, in that time there are no human being born to the real world. That's humans are created by machine to fullfil their purpose as a battery. The machines is the one who are real, they were born to the real world not human. And the machine are so generous to this new human by creating a world like their ancestor world to keep them from misery of real world they cannot survive in. The original humans were the cruel one, they created machine to be slave with concious but end up murdering them when they demand to be treated humanly like proper living being. The machine try to make peace with human many times but the human end up doing the stupidest thing who harm themself too by blocking the sun. That's when human surrender to machine and machine created the matrix as a status quo to benefit each other
@@mithiwithii will never get on a generational ship unless our world is destroying like in wall-e
At 2:45 really hits home, the birth of ChatGPT, the birth of A.I. then we get a dystopian Terminator/Matrix outcome.
Every time somebody on TV or online says "AI" I think of Keanu saying "you mean-- artificial intelligence?"
Morpheus’ residual self-image was a bald man. He’s definitely more brave than me.
😂
Bald and stylish. He was channeling Avery Brooks as Hawk!
Morpheus'*
Why are you afraid of having a shaved head? You sound like you never served in a military. Having a bald head is manly, it usually results from having too much testosterone.
@@valoredramack9117 why do I have to feel "manly"?
I have no idea how or why but even after all these years this scene NEVER gets old. Morpheus was Laurence Fishburne's BEST performances in my opinion. Morpheus is confident, knowledgeable, well spoken and seems like a wise sage trapped in a young man's body.
You do realize he's just the matrix's version of "Clippy" right?
Fishburne has had a lot of great performances

1:33 this scene ties in perfectly with what Morpheus himself asks Niobe at the end of the trilogy. "Is this real?"
It can make you wonder, what they think about the real world could be a simulation too, because they smell feel and so on just like in the matrix, just electrical signals interpreted into your brain
Any idea you have about the true nature of reality is true, it's all real, yet nothing is real at the same time. It's an unending paradox.
Niobe: what is real?
Literally serves the inspiration for the ending of Inception. 🍷
(not to discredit what you're saying) I too was marveling at the tie in this scene lol. And its pin. :)
Notice the transition. Morpheus describes the crop fields were humans are growing.. says he came to the realisation of the truth - the image of the baby growing in the machine turns into being in that TV's screen - says "what is the matrix? Control." - turns off the TV. Brilliant.
I didn't think we would actually be developing self-governing AI in the early 21st century, yet here we are. Going towards the end that The Matrix, The Terminator and many other movies warned us about...
Yeah, certain movies are there to tell the public the truth. It is weird, that there are some people thinking while making this scheme possible, “ well, you know, we should tell the cattle what is reallyyyyy going on. At least we can say, we are honest, even though, it is honesty coming from and through a very dubious medium, the vast majority of them wont take anything of what we are saying as true, but I dont know, we are kind of lonely here, lets talk with other humans. Do I forget what a human is or feels like ?” Hey look ! A solar eclipse 🌘💀🌒
Watching this scene for the first time in the theater knowing absolutely nothing about the movie and having no clue what the matrix is, this was probably the most shocking moment in my entire life.
Remember when big ideas and good stories came out of Hollywood? Funny, even after this original film, Hollywood still screwed up the franchise with the sequels. They completed the story, but I sort of wished they would've just kept the after fight a little more ambiguous - OR - taken more time with it to make better films.
I’m about to turn 30 and just seen this movie for the first time here recently. I give it a 10
20 years ago.
Wow as a kid you skipped this movie, so sad.
Soon you will wake up!
Eduardo Espinoza maybe
This movie is a 10 The sequel is an 8 The 3rd one is a 5 Just my opinion
I remember in the theater everybody in the audience let out a subtle laugh when he busted out the battery. Everyone was gripped by Morpheus's tone of voice as he delivered what the Matrix is. We laughed cause how it all came down to that. It was perfect. Didnt see it coming.
I remember this was the last good movie theaters had, theaters nowadays play alot rubbish that you can't really look forward too, the excitement if going to a movie theater to watch something decent has long gone.
@@planetX15 i can't even remember the last movie i've seen in a theatre... I can't remember the last time i was hyped for the release of a movie.
@@Mystipaoniz Avengers series. Unbelievable hype for those movies
@@willriley994 incredibly sad. Marvel is like a malignant tumor eating the film industry alive. More and more virtually indistinguishable, empty films being released every year until nothing else remains.
All because the studio suits couldn't wrap their heads around the concept of a neural network
“Welcome… to the desert of the real” Such an incredible line that they pulled straight from Jean Baudrillard. The analogy of the matrix to Jean’s “Simulacra and Simulation”, which was also required reading for the main cast, was done so masterfully and with so much care. Still unheard of to this day to see that kind of philosophy represented with such transparency in a big screen blockbuster. This movie is timeless.
Thank U for your gentle welcome?
Abstraction today is no longer that of the map, the double, the mirror or the concept. Simulation is no longer that of a territory, a referential being or a substance. It is the generation by models of a real without origin or reality: a hyperreal. The territory no longer precedes the map, nor survives it. Henceforth, it is the map that precedes the territory - precession of simulacra - it is the map that engenders the territory and if we were to revive the fable today, it would be the territory whose shreds are slowly rotting across the map. It is the real, and not the map, whose vestiges subsist here and there, in the deserts which are no longer those of the Empire, but our own. The desert of the real itself.
They must have only read the first couple of pages. To say that the analogy was done masterfully is a disservice to his work; Baudrillard himself stated that the movie is a misunderstanding. Good movie tho
“But... but wouldn’t almost anything make a better battery than a human body? Like a potato? ...Or a battery?” -Bender Bending Rodriguez
In the screenplay, we were being harvested for our brains to be used for data storage. At the time the studio thought that was too complicated so they asked the directors to switch it to batteries.
@@jbot91 Why not both? Much of our energy generated is pure heat which is mostly generated in the torso. But, what if not only is the Matrix provided to give the humans somewhere to blindly live, but if it is also generated by the humans, with their brains providing the base server for it. And, to top it off, they are also used to test out concepts the machines come up with in order to improve their own functions and society. Remember in Reloaded the Merovingian and his little experiments with affecting emotion and stimulation with bits of code he places in food and drink. That shows such a function in play. And if you take that concept and rewind a bit, then you start to wonder what Agent Smith might have done with that steak that Cypher enjoyed. Cypher no doubt already had the desire to get back into the farm and be permanently plugged into the Matrix, but what if Smith gave Cypher a bit of a "Machine Roofie" to push him over the edge and take away his loyalty to his friends?
@@samsonguy10k Because the battery idea is impossible. You cannot get more energy out of a system than you put into it.
This might make you reconsider ;) MORPHEUS: For the longest time, I wouldn't believe it. But then I saw the fields with my own eyes, watched them liquefy the dead so they could be fed intravenously to the living - NEO (politely): Excuse me, please. MORPHEUS: Yes, Neo? NEO: I've kept quiet for as long as I could, but I feel a certain need to speak up at this point. The human body is the most inefficient source of energy you could possibly imagine. The efficiency of a power plant at converting thermal energy into electricity decreases as you run the turbines at lower temperatures. If you had any sort of food humans could eat, it would be more efficient to burn it in a furnace than feed it to humans. And now you're telling me that their food is the bodies of the dead, fed to the living? Haven't you ever heard of the laws of thermodynamics? MORPHEUS: Where did you hear about the laws of thermodynamics, Neo? NEO: Anyone who's made it past one science class in high school ought to know about the laws of thermodynamics! MORPHEUS: Where did you go to high school, Neo? (Pause.) NEO: ...in the Matrix. MORPHEUS: The machines tell elegant lies. (Pause.) NEO (in a small voice): Could I please have a real physics textbook? MORPHEUS: There is no such thing, Neo. The universe doesn't run on math. From "Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality", chapter 64 Interesting idea, which can justifie any of the questionable explanations from the film. I personally think it adds yet another thought-provoking layer to the whole "horrifying truth" reveal. The machines didn't even have to bother reinventing the entire system of physics laws, they simply falsified the data about the human body to quell our potential concerns.
@@maeriustsaverius4672 That's a very interesting thought. It also points out how most conspiracy theorists are. They can explain their belief in a conspiracy by saying anything that proves their belief false is just part of the conspiracy, so it must be true. It's a very annoying thing.
I was only 5 years old when this movie came out. When I watched it I just like all the cool action sequences, and the "bullet-time" effects. Nowadays I appreciate it much more for just how cerebral it is. The themes at play make you question your very own reality and compel you to ponder your own existence.
I was about 11 when it came out. I was old enough to aporeciate the special effects abd acting AND try to understand much of the themes and intellect behind the film. It had a profound impact on me and really stretched my brain as a kid. As i get older i watch it over and over and still see new things about it...
Welcome to the desert of the real
I've been telling people for the last two or three years, The Matrix is a documentary. Elon Musk has stated that we now have A.I. doing things. He stated a few years ago how dangerous it is. Now he says its too late. This is one of the greatest movies ever made. Thank you.
If ever The Matrix, and I'm talking THIS ICONIC AND GOD FORBID PROPHETIC movie, ever gets totally pulled from the web and all available means of accessing it, THAT'S when we will know that AI has become sentient and has turned on us.
Fun fact: in the prequel animatrix, which goes over the cause and subsequent war against machines, the machines found alternative power sources before humanity scorched the sky, they just didn't know at the time. The only reason the machines use humans as a power source isn't because we're an efficient power source, but because of all the horrible things early sentient AI was put through. Seriously, the machines tried time and time again to make peace, but humanity was too fearful of becoming obsolete that we basically forced them to do this.
Still a pretty stupid idea the whole thing. Why do the machines react emotionally? Why are they suddenly immune to nukes, and why did the humans not keep nuking the same area until the whole place was glass? Like, it's stupid on som many levels. Good movies, but animatrix was silly.
@@Akillesursinne like the machines wouldn't have some sort of counter or material to withstand it?
It was also the machine's "mercy" to enslave humans in the matrix where humans can live out a normal virtual existence. Otherwise humans would have become extinct since they cannot survive in the post-apocalyptic world after scorching the sky. They could have just wiped out all the humans.
@@gv8521 I mean, no, the fictional setting clearly shows EMP working with the machines having no shield against it. And humanity has enough nukes to just keep nuking them until no shielding remains. So yes, I do think that animatrix was stupid as hell.
@@Akillesursinne "why do they react emotionally" because they were abused for years, being Ai they developed consciousness. If you were a slave and just got shit on every day of your existence by your masters, you either have an emotional backlash or commit suicide(also an emotional reaction).

3:26- "Throughout human history, we have depended on machines to survive. Fate, it seems, is not without a sense of irony." The more you think about it, the more it's scary and true.

I always loved the way Fishburne delivered the lines 'Welcome to the desert of the real'. His whole speech here was awesome.
Only as I got older did I realize how deep and thought provoking this film truly is, when I was young I only understood the action the guns the martial arts but as I became an adult these scenes are more amazing than I could've ever interpreted in my younger years.
You know, as pure fan fiction as it would be, you could almost connect the Terminator and Matrix franchises together. What if The Terminator portrays the initial war with the machines, but the true conclusion to that franchise is that John Connor ultimately fails his mission and the machines win the war. The Matrix reveals how the world is much later, after centuries of complete machine domination. Of course that doesn't explain the whole blocking the sun thing, but a good writer could potentially weld the gap.
That's awesome and scary and disturbing.
I am a wannabe writer, with a folder, containing several sub-folders of not only inital sketches of ideas, but a novel in progress (a prologue, and two completed chapters), plus a re-write of perhaps on of the worst fan fictions posted on the internet, which, so far, iirc, is pretty close to 20k+ words ... I say pretty close ... my desktop is pretty close to dying, and as unfortunate as things are, my live savings got ... swiped ... due to a very sophisticated scam, involving an individual/individuals posing as police officers ... But once I get a fully functional pc I need, if I may, I would like to run with that idea: that there is a timeline of The Animatrix - Terminator movies (although have to be careful as to which ones, obviously ...) - The Matrix movies ... In short, Skynet is the precursor to The Matrix: a crude analogy, is Skynet is of a 13-15 year old mind, whilst the Matrix is closer to being a 30-35 year old. Another analogy would be Tron -Tron Legacy. The initial Grid was rather crude, due to an inability to create anything more than rather simple polygons in its environment. By Tron: Legacy, the leap in processing power ala Moore's Law, meant the ability to resolve complex polygons had increased almost exponentially, much like how base-2 scales up rapidly ...

“Welcome to the next level of the Matrix”
This exact sequence from the movie has stayed with for over 20 years. It perfectly walks the line between too much and too little information for you as a viewer to fill in the blanks yourself in a way that makes it sensible to you.
Verbal diarrhea hidden within a style that captivates so you don't pay attention to all the plot holes.

What is real? That is the question. Maybe "real world" in Matrix wasn't real at all, but just an another simulation to give rebellious individuals illusion of freedom and choice. Choice to rebel against Matrix. Maybe there is no real escape from the Matrix. They talked about this in movie if you listen carefully. All that talk about, how first Matrix was perfect and paradise and that humans rejected it. Because it was too perfect. Maybe Matrix created a new version which includes Zion simulation to satisfy those who reject 1999 reality of Matrix. Matrix gave them illusion that they are fighting against Matrix, freeing humanity and even illusion of winning, but in reality Matrix controls every detail: the One, Oracle are just puppets, even they don't know it. Matrix may not be evil being at all, in his own way it tries to serve humanity by trying to offer them perfect simulation to be truly happy, but because human nature itself is flawed it hasn't succeeded yet to create simulation which satisfies humanity's needs perfectly.
That to me sounds just like a lazy writing to be honest, but you have a good point, that Matrix (machines) aren't probably evil nor good. My theory is that Neo is next step in human evolution, A.I. that is unaware that is in human body (The anomaly) just like Agent Smith was able to transend his "code" into a human brain. Maybe the conclusion should be that the Programs of the Matrix starting to have emotions (human like) and vice versa. Maybe the only way forward is for humans and machines to evolve into something completely different, into some kind of symbiotic state between human and machine (I don't want to say Cyborg, lol). But ultimately, what is truly great about the Matrix is that it's up to you "what is real", "what does it all mean"etc. I hope that Matrix 4 will leave these philosophical questions unaswered and maybe explore much younger version of The Matrix.

@George Planter We do that to animals everyday. Seems to me that you are the only one that doesn't think correctly. It's the survival of the fittest. I bet you are one of those who think that you are the unique snowflake but truth is that you are piece of shit matter just as the rest of us. There's no good or bad in the universe. So if we are ever to create next step in evolution (A.I.) we either evolve with it or we better step the fck away. Just being real.
@George Planter
@@kukuricapica Yes, this is what they want to do for us. Matrix wants to make hybrids, now vaxines, later chip. This movie is more like documentary than fiction.
"Anything we need" Morpheus: i needed to have this swanky suit and tie
And the Lennon specs! Don't forget about the Lennon specs. ;)
He also needs a T Rex that he can ride into the Matrix
@@crypastesomemore8348 or to make the other two movies good
They always dress like 70s dancers.
"Listen to me, coppertop. We don’t have time for twenty questions. Right now there’s only one rule, our way or the highway." - didn't get that line until this scene.
Coppertop is slang for Battery
Say what you want about this movie,this is still my favourite battery commercial
someone plug me back in the matrix the real world seems like a scary place to live in
Nah once you go in you can't get out. This world is sad because everyone is controlled but at least YOU KNOW THAT YOU KNOW .
I would trade all that I have learned ( not much / nor effective ) in the last 4 years of my life, to go back before the great humiliation
Trade it all
@@Ray2311us ya the real world seems scary course of the movie that's how it whould be nothing without the matrix
@@mrdagger1169 are rather live in the matrix then the shit we are living in now
"What is civilization, Neo? It is a construct, created in order to change a human being into this: 💲💲💲"
You're communist.
@@Mivotin I'm sorry, is this supposed to be insulting? Idiot...
“Let me tell you why you’re here. You know something. What you know, you can’t explain, but you feel it. You felt it your entire life. There’s something’s wrong with the world. You don’t know what, but it’s there. Like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad. It is this feeling that has brought you to me. Do you know what I’m talking about ? ”
This has got to be one of the best product placements EVERR
There's a part where the character Switch calls Neo "copper top", at this point in the movie, I didn't get it, but as soon as I saw this scene, when Morpheus holds up that battery, at that moment I knew what Switch was talking about, I got it.
This is how the animals would view us if they were ever to become conscious of what we're doing to them.
Omg yes exactly! I was thinking that when I watched the movie for the first time!
Это жизнь.
Also how they would view themselves
Excellent observation, and so true!
Perfectly said. The point of view of the farmed.
This movie came at the perfect time. Before mass cell phone use. Before people became cell phone junkies. Before people spent up to 18 hours a day. Before the average cell phone use of 7 hours a day. People sleep 8 hours, work or school for 8 hours.
The image of the baby in the pod still gives me the shivers.
I remember watching The Matrix first time ever on a bootleg VHS tape on an old LG CRT TV set. It was magnificent!
This is really a great expositional reveal. I mean, waking up in the power plant was great, but the audience still didn’t know what was going on. THIS explains all we need to know, what we’ve seen, what we WILL see. It’s just very well done. Fishburne is great in this role.
It all started with chatGPT
That Duracell at the end killed it.. what a marvelous scene!
Anyone notice the “Mandela effect” where Morpheus tells Neo, “What if I told you that everything you believed, is a lie!”? How and when did they take this out of the movie? I was 9 years old and that quote stuck with me until this day since 1999.
0:45 When you're loading a game for your friend how has never played VR
I was today years old when I realized why Switch calls Neo "Coppertop" in the stomach bug extraction scene.... The things you realize later in life when it's not 1999, and you're not 13 years old.
Gotta love Morpheus for his residual self image because damn that ensemble works for him.
What makes this scene and the movie itself iconic and a timeless classic, is that it will lead you to question reality. Sure there may have been other films/series that came before and after, and ask this question. But the idea of "what is real" being presented appeals to real life situations even today, and not just the characters in the movie. Like are really awake or are we actually trapped in our own mindscape? While also unconsciously being influenced by something that prevent us from wondering what really goes on behind the things we see. How is the upcoming 4th film going to top the first?
everything Mortpheus says is instantly a quote and all time classic
"You wanted to know what the Matrix is, Neo?" "You mean after everything that's happened, we still haven't gotten to that??"
The design of Morpheus’ glasses is an awesome way of demonstrating to the audience his extraordinary power
I have seen this movie thousands of times. This is the first time I have cried watching this scene.
Back when Wachowskis had balls.
111 000 ooooooo 1010001
I see what you did there...
Literally
LOLOL
😂😂😂😂😂
The initial combination of the shock when Neo wakes up and the sense of despair in this scene still chill me. So amazing.
How much ahead of its time can a movie be. Amazing scenario. I actually feel lucky to have given the chance to watch this movie.
Nobody: PS2 Startup sound: 0:40
Scary AF for real
We don't know who struck first us or them... because at this point we hadn't created the Animatrix which made it remarkably clear who started it.
Even after the animatrix they still don't know, Morpheus doesn't have access to the original history records.
IMO, I always took that segment of The Animatrix as propaganda from both sides mixed together in hopes of getting at the truth. The early machines as super-peaceful and humans as blatant slavers versus later monstrous experiments and war scenes against the humans. Nobody came out of that short looking pretty and there's enough there to get the gist of what must've happened.
@@lightbringer34 That's a good point. Also, Second Renaissance part 2 begins with the nuclear bombardment of 01, without ever really explaining why that was done. So there's kind of still room to say that nobody knows for sure who struck first.
The Animatrix isn't canon.
@@minniehahhah7593 actually it is canon since its based off the books
I don't like how well this has aged...
I wish I had been old enough to see this movie in theaters. What an incredible film.
0:05 .....just how long are Laurence Fishburne’s arms? Daft question I know, but it did distract me!
I thought the same lol
I mean, he is pretty tall man
@@glenbenton4855 There is that ... or he has odd genes ... I have an inherited genetic disorder called Noonan's Syndrome. One of the most obvious signs is short stature, hence why, at nearly 46, am only 5'2" ... But my arms a wholly disproportionate to my torso, meaning my fingertips reach a few inches below my hips. That, and having hypermobile joints, means, when once an acquaintance, who is a serving police officer, put me in an armlock, he was suprised that I could almost touch the back of my head with my fingertips, without excessive pain ... a rare time he was actually impressed ... It also means buying dress shirts, as I have get them to match a small collar size, with -- relatively -- long sleeves, is a right pain ...
One of Laurence's best traits is his posture, gesturing, and posing. Whenever you see him point at someone in a movie, you sit up straight yourself and expect whoever he's pointing at to do the same. His gesture game is top. Even comes out in the movie Predators. When you first see him he is straight up and rather badass, but then he starts slipping into his "Gollum" form which foreshadows his eventual betrayal. He speaks with his body as well as he does with his voice.
I remember when Fish played "Clean" in Apocalypse Now. Saw it in the theatre.
The Matrix: "The beginning of the 21st century was the peak of the human race and it all went to shit pretty quickly after that." Me, when it came out: "bit presumptuous." Me, now: "Wow, fucking called it."
Still one of my favorite film series they all feel like the writers actually cared (I haven't seen the most recent one so I will withhold judgement) and were attempting to ask questions about peoples thoughts and feelings, systems of power and control with even a bit of divine providence for good measure.
