Recap of Matrix I.
There is a war
between the humans and the machines, and at some point in time the
humans scorched the sky blocking out the only means of energy from
the machines, the Sun. So the machines realized that the human body
produces heat and, with a certain chemical process known as fusion,
could be able to turn the heat into energy. So, the machines realize
that they had to put our physical bodies in a container to harness
our body heat. But our minds were as busy as can be. The machines
connected our brains to the to a computer program, called the
Matrix, and put us under control to let us live in a Virtual Reality
Dream world…
The Explanation: Matrix
Reloaded
Neo is
able move faster and do the impossible things within the Matrix
because he has stored inside him certain code. Code that he doesn’t
really know is inside him until the end of the movie. We get hints
that the code is in him because he sees people in the actual Matrix
writing.
Agent
Smith seems to be free because in Matrix I when Neo destroyed Smith,
Agent Smith copied some of that code that is inside Neo and because
Smith is a program he is able use that code to hack other program in
the Matrix. We learn this when the Oracle speaks to Neo about
“programs hacking programs” and “if a program is supposed to be
deleted it may not want to be deleted” and
hence creates havoc for all the other programs, namely the other
Agents.
You see
according to Agent Smith in his little speech with neo right before
the 100 Smith battle, he said that “I (Smith) am no longer an Agent
of this system” and he
also said, “that he is unplugged and free, like you (Neo) just apparently free.” What he
means by this is that the Matrix is more complicated than we could
imagine; So complicated that I will have to explain this with a
diagram.
What I have gathered from the movie is that the
Matrix and the real world are under control by one
mainframe/server(just a larger form of the matrix that holds both
the matrix and the real world). The reason for this is because Agent
Smith says that Neo is not really free but he just believes that he
is free. When in fact, Neo and the others are under the control of
the mainframe computer. Neo doesn’t know that is why he thinks he is
free. This fact is also shown when Agent Smith can move from the
Matrix to the Real world. This also shows how Neo is able to use his
powers to stop the Sentinels outside of the Matrix. Because the Real
World is under the Mainframe computer there is a program controlling
the real world. Agent Smith is now able to exist as a program in the
Matrix and now because the Real World is a program he is able to
exist in the real World.
The Architect
This is
probably the most complicated part of the movie. He basically says
that Neo contains code that enables him to do what he does. He also
says that the code is used to start a new Matrix. They always have
to restart the Matrix because a newer version of the Matrix has to
be created and also it has to be updated for glitches. He says that
this is currently the sixth Matrix and that a seventh will be
created. In order to do this Neo has to enter the right door and the
code will be read from him and downloaded onto the mainframe and
then Neo has to choose 23 people to rebuild
Zion . I have come to
realize that the other Neo’s on the TV screen are the other/past
Ones of the other Matrix. That is the people on the TV screen were
the “One” from the first Matrix and the second Matrix and so on…
But if Neo
chooses the left door (the actual one he chooses) he will re-enter
the Matrix and then in 24 hours the Matrix and the real world will
be destroyed.
The
Architect also explained that the Oracle is the Mother of the
Matrix. He tells his tale by saying that the Oracle was created to
understand the “human psychological makeup” (to try and understand
the human beings). Anyway, when the Architect tried to give the
Oracle the program, she would not take it. So she had her own power
in the Matrix. She tried to understand humans and came up with a
very efficient way of letting human minds accept being plugged into
the Matrix. She said that if the humans were given the choice to be
in the Matrix or the real world that the 99.99% of the people would
accept the program because they were given a choice. And she
mentioned that if they didn’t really understand the choice they
would still accept the program.
The End of the
Movie
Basically
the end of the movie shows Agent Smith in human form laying on the
table and neo beside him. Now they have to worry about saving
Zion in 24 hours because
the Architect said that it would be destroyed if he went back into
the Matrix.
