- Part 2 has been uploaded: • The Philosophy of The ...
This is one out of a series of videos that analyses the Matrix's themes, philosophies, story, film making and design choices.
It does so with reference to a view and argument posited by the New York Times ambivalent reception of this movie who called for Action films to be simple / dumbed down.
One of the criticisms levied at the Matrix was that the film was too dense and philosophical.
This video tries to unveil some of its beauty and in-depth substance with a view to showing and making the case that action movies should still remain ambitious and not fear reaching meaningful depths in its movie.
It covers the ground breaking and industry changing things that the trilogy has done.

That film is more relevant today than it was back in 1999. It's a masterpiece!
Simpitriy Cuckinchenko has been relevant for centuries, genius minds
Yes
the more time that goes by
The more timely the film becomes :)
@@emj6724 that's not the reason why it's still or more relevant than it was back then.
In 1999 we had less progress of tech and video game industry. Looking at the progress today in 2022, it's easier now to assume that our world is indeed artificial and was created by artificial intelligence.
@@LXKeemProductions Our world is created by God.
That's because We are Older and more conscious "Awoke" now
My personal favourite dialogue in the movie… from when Morpheus was taking Neo to the Oracle.
Neo: “so the Oracle is never wrong?”
Morpheus: “ try not to think about it in terms or right and wrong. She is a guide… that can help you find the path.”
Woah … that’s deep.
Masterpiece of a film!
One of my most favorite of all time films I continue to watch it over and over again 20 years later your review is phenomenal and I really like your accent please keep the content coming🎉
"Have you ever had a dream Neo, that you were so sure was real? What if you were unable to awake from that dream. How would you know the difference between the dream world and the real world?"
One of the most profound and philosophical movies I've ever watched, just because of this line.
A line that was actually from the philosopher Zhuangzi in a story called The Butterfly Dream!
When I saw this movie for the first time I was high as a kite. When the movie went off I was sober and I couldn’t sleep .it made more sense than anything I’ve ever read in a book. I’ve never look at anything the same.
That's just the beginning. I've watched some Anime that go beyond the matrix. Watch Serial Experiments Lain and Texhnolyze, or even watch Ghost in the Shell, an inspiration the Wachowski's used for the Matrix. Those anime series and movie will change your perspective for life.
This movie had a tremendous impact of my perception of goes around the world. The depth of the concepts engaged and how they conected them was like an answer that I was waiting for, unfolding in front of me. I was 18 at the time. Even today The Matrix and Revolver are my favourite ones.
They make you think and engage in questioning.
Agreed - it was a big impactful film for me to during my childhood - if I ever accidentally stumble across a channel airing it I stop and watch for a bit :)
Jorge Norberto yes they do especially the 13 th floor. That movie came just before the matrix released.
this is by far the best analysis ive seen of the first matrix movie! 100 % Complete in all levels. Im going to share this with many of my friends that are to interested in this. You should have more viiiews
Thank you so much for your kind words and support in getting this video known!
It means a ton to me!
fucking high five. indeed, inDEED!
Great

The fact that people say the Matrix is inaccessible because of its themes, and amount of exposition are the exact reason why science fiction movies haven't been worth a shit in decades. Things should have gone up from here, the reason they haven't is because of the failure of the sequels.
Agreed - while I like 2 and 3 they pale in comparison to the first one
I'm sorry but there has been lots of incredible scifis since the turn of the century... You're just not watching them. Children of Men, Under the skin, Interstellar, Blade Runner 2049 to name a few.
I think films in general have become shit of late. Look at the blockbusters from the 70s through to the early 2000s. So many great films . Some are well made with great acting but with simple stories. Others have complex philosophies and ideas that are well portrayed. Whether it's alien. Aliens, terminator,Shaw shank redemption , jaws, matrix, batman dark knight , Lord of the rings.
I haven't seen a movie that left me thinking "that was awsome!!! Or thought provoking in years . Could quite honestly say for over a decade (aside from Noels batman trilogy) nothing has been at the level and standard previous films have. Standards at Hollywood have slipped horribly. The last decent thing I've seen is game of thrones and that's a damm tv series!!!
By design
what if the reason "science fiction movies haven't been worth a shit for decades" is precisely because the sequels are viewed as failures?
What made the Matrix so great is very similar to what made The Dark Knight so great (of course, Heath Ledger's performance also contributed) and also what makes tv shows like Black Mirror and especially Westworld so great. They work well on their own as a movie/show (great stories, well made, well acted etc.), but they also dare to dig into fairly profound subjects that make the viewers think and ask questions, and by working well as a movie/tv show it appeals to a wider audience than books or comics that deal with similar topics. I hope (and actually think) that we're moving towards more of these types of movies/tv shows in the future.
Its Okay To Be White Nationalist we need to start up we site and use Burner phones to communicate dead serious cause we bout to wake up even more. And it’s people like you and me that will have to help the others.
the difficulty perceiving true reality only occurs when one is unaware their world is a separate world existing along side true reality, where all other known life resides.
Great comment.
The complex story and themes explored in THE MATRIX added to the film, it never detracted.
When the film was released, I was an internet engineer/UNIX sys admin and network operations center manager.
I was surrounded by computer geeks and was one myself.
Having an action film presented with complicated themes was a revolutionary concept, and it took me three viewings to comprehend all of the aspects of the story.
Everyone I knew Loved the film. We loved being able to discuss it in detail and dissect the various plot elements.
To say it again, the film was revolutionary!
This is an incredible breakdown of the film's themes, with concise explanations of the theories that form the basis the Wachowskis used for the script.
Excellent job!
Many thanks for your extensive extrapolation presented.
👍🤙😎
Psychedelics and thinking patterns like shown in this movie have made me realize so much of the reality we live in.
@Troll Boy You have some very... strange ideas.
This film *fucked* me up
I loved it. I was at a truly impressionable age when I saw it and the concept of “beneath reality “ and deeper perception really struck me. The nature of truth and reality, it’s still stuck with me. Fukkin legend movie.
Funny enough, a few years later, baritone introduced the idea of looking beneath the underneath. Again, deeper perception.
Fun stuff.
This analysis was as deep and interesting as the movie itself
Vinay K right?
I have woken up in my own dream before and thought l was awake but l was still dreaming. My brain tricked me three times in one night. Have anyone else had that experience.
This happened to me a couple of times before, its very rare but in both occasions - the 2 times i'd wake up all felt extremely real. They were all variations of the same event which added to my wtf feeling.
Yeess I did and it was in a very stressful time. I had a *false awakening* 3 times back to back like inception.
@Nig BKD deja vu
More of this please, really enjoyed this and the information was spot on unlike many others.
Thank you so much! I can confirm that the second one is in the making, there is lots of philosophical concepts in the second one which I need to research more of before I put pen to paper but if you stick around you will know when its done.
I really hope you like it when it comes out.
As promised!

@@ModernGamerTV where's the 3rd?
Within the first 2 minutes your thoughts about intelligent action films sets yourself way above the other matrix analyses I was looking at
Thank you so much for the kind words my friend! I’m glad you enjoyed it 🤗🤗
Each individual choose their own reality due to their perception. The reality is the manifestion of thoughts that dominant by perception. Perception consists of sensory of experiences. The mind system control sensory of exoefiences. The mind system create thoughts. The intention determine the projection of thoughts. I need to think
Great job on the philosophical aspects of the film , in my opinion what made the matrix a great film was the fact that everything in the film had more then one meaning. It went into the metaphysical as well as everything else.
A couple things I'd like to note:
I believe it isn't The Matrix that misunderstood Baudrillard's work but rather Baudrillard that misunderstood The Matrix. If his foundation for such a belief is that the matrix is distinguishable from reality, his belief is mistaken as the matrix is only distinguishable to those in the know. Those living within the simulation are entirely ignorant to the nature of their reality. From their perspective, the matrix IS reality. Therefor there is no distinction. His work falls apart if we're to define simulacra as indistinguishable even with the knowledge of the "deeper reality" extending beyond it. Think Inception and their totems. They use totems to tell if they're still dreaming. Without the totem, they might get lost within the dream or simulation. And yet their knowledge of the circumstances of the simulation itself enables them to determine the state of their reality. Knowledge breaks the illusion. The same is present in The Matrix.
Additionally the idea that Neo isn't "The One" and that Morpheus was dogmatic and misinformed is kind of inaccurate. This belief is predicated upon the idea that what The Architect and The Oracle say is absolute truth. Simply put, just because Neo is ALSO an anomaly and has had what would be considered predecessors does not mean Neo isn't also unique to himself and functionally indistinguishable from "The One." He's shown time and time again to be divergent from his previous iterations as well as the expectations of those who believe they control him. What The Architect says will happen ultimately falls short and Neo ultimately does exactly as he was foretold to do. On a similar note, the idea that Morpheus lost faith in The Oracle and her prophecies is shown in the second film yet it is predicated on the belief that The Oracle was being 100% literal when explaining the future. That The One would reach The Source and the war would end. Because Neo is successful and the war doesn't end immediately, it's shown that The Oracle must have lied and that Morpheus must have been mistaken in his belief. And yet Neo DOES IN FACT return to The Source in physical form later on, defeats Smith, and ends the war. The prophecy DOES come true. Just not in the way and at the exact time Morpheus expected it to. The Oracle didn't say Neo would reach The Source and the war would be over 'immediately'. The problem wasn't The Oracle's words but Morpheus' expectation and interpretation of them. In the same way that The Merovingian refuses to give up The Keymaker and on their way out Persephone intercepts them. The Oracle never once told a lie to the humans. She was always right. Therefor Morpheus was always right for believing in her.
Baudrillard understood the matrix, the matrix doesn't understand him, it at least doesn't agree with him. Baudrillard expressed the real world has being gone already and beyond distinction from simulation in many regards. Whereas Neo and the inhabitants of Zion know the difference between reality and the illusion and the very fact there exists those outside the simulation with such a clear visible view of its borders and the separation from the real doesnt exist in our universe. They may exist in Neo's because his simulation is a literal digital prison whereas Baudrillards work regards one place of physical existence encompassing us all so there is no "unplugging." Baudrillard felt the very concept of unplugging created a false sense of safety especially because the clarity of its lines are distinguishable while the simulations in our reality are not. Not at least anymore. Baudrillards belief was that there is truth gone from this world that can never come back. To those in the movie the truth is "the real world," which makes no sense because even if humans escaped the matrix what would they create? Their very knowledge about the society they should create comes from the machines. They have no idea what existed before. Imagine the humans escape to the "real world" and make the cereal "tasty wheat" how would they know what to make it taste like? They would be forced to sculpt that taste based on what the machines taught us tasty wheat tasted like so the truth of that is gone no matter whether in the matrix or the real world. There would only exist the simulation of what it tasted like that the machines had left us because it's TRUE taste was gone from.this world. The matrix misunderstands Baudrillard in thinking that our worst fears of a electronic cage from which there exist an external freedom. There isn't. At this point the real world and the machine dreamscape are the both now the matrix and a part of the simulation. It seems the matrix ressurection may in fact remedy this mistake by turning the events of Zion and the real world into another system of control. Another illusion. Because like Baudrillard says truth is gone and we can only learn to deal with the simulation not escape it. There's no longer anything to escape to.
I'm a simple man. When I see a Matrix video, I click.
Simple men do not realize they are simple men
And if they do they do not say it
You choose to be simple maybe you stopped being simple by default but venturing out of the matrix is still challenging to you but I doubt you are really simple
Its like the difference between being an employee and a business owner
If you’re into philosophy, I recommend fight club, then you wouldn’t want to be the employee or business owner, but the person who burns down the building in the search of freedom
that was unbelievable. Thanks for going so in depth. so insightful/entertaining
this shit just helped me with my philosophy midterm lmao
I first heard about the movies in high school, and I was told they were the best action films ever, but never watched till 2005-06. So yeah, I first watched for entertainment. But after seeing the style and fashion, I stayed. After seeing the story and how deep it is, it became my favorite trilogy.
4:19 This seems like a good video but having studied Descartes with one of the best philosophy professors one could hope to find (Janet Broughton) I would say that you are misunderstanding what the quote "I think therefore I am" means.
Descartes started with that quote and used it to go all the way to confirming that there must be a benevolent God and that our senses must be accurate. Not because we can think about reality, as you say here, but because he deduced from "I think therefore I am," through a long chain of reasoning, that there must be a benevolent God would not allow us to be deceived.
But otherwise Very Cool video~😎🦹♀️😎
So if there is a benevolent god that means you are or could be deceived how does that support his conclusion that we are not in some illusory existence?
Best review for The Matrix.
I am a schizophrenic and I frequently have ideas of Matrix, Truman show, solipsism etc
Om Sadasiva if I also frequently have these thoughts, does that mean I have a minor case of schizophrenia?
@@KsE909 you may be eccentric with strange beliefs, schizotypal personality
Om Sadasiva my therapist was against my trying shrooms because she was afraid I would break my brain. But i did eventually try shrooms it legitimately felt like the veil of "reality" had lifted. And I wasn't scared that this wasn't real, it was just nice to have my thoughts reaffirmed
@@KsE909 even weed is bad, causing psychosis
Could a movie have told any more truth without letting the viewer really know whats going on?
William White no this movie is the key watch this chanel called spiritualso plz
After watching this movie when I was a kid I begun to realize the difference between reality around me and my inner world.
@@wrldwidemike5214 Von too cut is right.
I could never get over that ending where neo blocks all thoes punches 🤣🤣🤣
excellent breakdowns, however you missed a golden opportunity to delve into Sartre and Existential Freedom, Bad Faith and Authenticity during the segment on Choice that dealt with Cipher.
go on.
"The Matrix is surely the kind of film about the matrix that The Matrix would have been able to produce."
Baudrillard
*Hindu's Sanskrit Shlokas used in The Matrix Revolution movie*
‘ *Navras*’ is a song from The Matrix Revolutions soundtrack by goa trance band Juno Reactor, composed by Don Davis and featuring vocal elements by Lakshmi Shankar and Azam Ali. The song contains an adaption of the Asato ma mantra found in the *Hindu* sacred text the Brihadaranyaka Upanishad, section I.iii.28, used in the soundtrack of the movie trilogy The Matrix. The name Navras might refer to the notion of nine rasas (nava rasa) in Sanskrit aesthetics.

This has to be the best analysis of The Matrix I've seen. There is nothing more to say about it. I must say personally I actually enjoyed parts 2 and 3 as they progress technologically in each movie hence each movie starts to stretch out the overuse of CGI each time Neo is plugged in. The complete trilogy totally knocks my socks off. Excellent analysis again my friend. Have a great day or night wherever anyone is. The above is only my opinion though, before I get trolled 😆
Great analysis, it had me hooked. Very interesting, thanks.
Cool, you would never notice it in the movie, this is the first time I noticed it, but in the 'woman in red' scene, when they freeze the program, most of the people are repeated, flipped or both. What I find strange is that if I was standing there for real, I know, as most people would, that I would notice repeated people walking around me. Interesting
Interesting. The only criticism I've ever heard regarding this movie is that someone didn't understand it. Literally just one person. Now the SEQUELS are a whole other story but the Matrix is probably one of the few movies that I've seen get tons of praise and I actually agree with it
Know Theyself is the principal teaching of Ancient Kemet (Egypt). This pre dates Greek culture.
I remember reading a few books on that years ago. Can you please say some sources for my own research? I really would appreciate it.
the music timing was brilliant
Please, do you know the name of the music in 7:00?
What a video ! congrats. You knew two years ago what a good UA-cam video would become today, cheers from France
Absolutely outstanding analysis. Thank you. More please.
Most certainly working on it :) Thank you for the lovely comment!
Wow what a great analysis my friend ! Thank you for sharing.
*The Matrix was perfection itself---a thinking person's series* 🍃❣🍃
Dorothy G. Tyas it’s awesome but perfection doesn’t exist in film
It’s not like music where you’re constantly checked by physics
it depends on the level of intelligence of a person is whether a person will understand the matrix or not. It's not until I went through some of my computer classes that some of it made sense. For example, how an anti-virus works or virus replicate or what is an OS. The philosophy part of the matrix still eludes me.
Great analysis!
But I do find Neo to be the one. I don’t doubt Morpheus’ dogma as you stated which was mentioned to be false in part 2. How could he not be the one when he’s able to do extraordinary capabilities unlike anyone else?
In terms of choice and the illusion of that as presented by the Architect, I saw him not only as the villain but a manipulator as well. He pressures Neo to try to make the wrong choice. This here also shows the one going beyond the rules and authority, and making his path. Ultimately, mankind is saved.
Correct me if I’m wrong.
Thank you so much for the comment :D
His unique abilities is not because he is the one but because he is an inherent anomaly that is tied into the programming of the matrix which keeps coming up every time the machines reload it (the architect would have otherwise made a matrix that is of perfect mathematical harmony) - I cover this in part 2 of the analysis in much more detail which you can find on the channel.
As for the manipulator bit about your comment it is very good you picked this up because the architect is purely mathematical and has gone about making a matrix that excludes many dimensions to human existence hence why the Oracle was made to assist with subsequent reloads. You are right that he was being manipulative, he did give Neo a pretty deep ultimatum, save trinity and risk extinction of the human race or reload the matrix as per the Architects conditions.
This also ties into the 3rd bit about your comment, Neo decides to wing it, save trinity even if it meant risking the entire human race. He does decide to walk his own path, rejecting the masonic and prophetic role that was ascribed to him by the other zionites. He decides to figure out how to salvage the human race after saving his love :)
@@ModernGamerTV dude, mathematical anomaly= the one, if I'm not mistaken, taking it a step further, in mathematical language binarily his whole being, anomaly, and all that, whatever, broke down actually = it to +1, or 1. I forget somebody had broke it down on another video how binarily his story and everything and added up to 1.but anyway just taking yourself outside of the box look at it about him being an anomaly that really made him the one cuz nobody else is able to do the things that the anomaly was able to do or achieve the things that he was going to be able to it to you by being able to do those things, so yea he was the one
@@ModernGamerTV I’m going to have to disagree. I think by choosing to save trinity, he is still acting in the prophetic role. Choosing the other door like the others did would mean certain destruction of Zion and it’s inhabitants and then a reboot. By choosing to save trinity maybe neo felt that he could also save Zion as well and was willing to take that risk in an attempt to save everyone. Maybe choosing trinity was the only way to possibly save everyone else. I like to believe that neo is still the one because he still has the power of choice and the choice he made saved everyone even though it cost him his life.
16:59- The Banyan tree of wisdom! :) I wonder if the artist was consciously alluding to a tree or even the legendary tree under which Buddha attained 'enlightenment', or whether it was an unconscious result.
The shots in this movie are beautiful .
On the one hand, I totally agree that the Matrix has no idea what Boudriliard said, and crashed together incompatible philosophies. However, one must always be careful when referencing these sources, that one doesn't let the language trick you into unquestioningly internalizing the self-rationalization of the unhappy burguoise philosopher who wrote it.
The Matrix is simple to understand, in fact I already thought of it myself 5 years before the movie was made.
Pincho Paxton what did you understand
I understand that we can be living in a computer simulation similar to any other computer simulation, and that there is a real world outside of the simulation. The second level is ruled by Ai robots, and that world could be a simulation as well, it is more likely that the third level would be the real world, but we never see the third level. Neo can control the simulation from within the simulation by taking control of the programming, and by doing that he can free humans from the simulation prison.
In reality we really are living in a simulation, and The Matrix is just a clue within a movie. The simulation that we really live in is to rehabilitate us to live in the second level, and we still never get to see the third level. Aliens on other planets cannot be found because evolution always leads to life living in simulations, and so never send messages out in the real world to other planets.
The biggest clue that we really live in a simulation is the time-frame which has been set in the computer age, introducing us to simulations right from the beginning. That is the part of the rehabilitation that we wake up understanding simulations so that we accept what just happened to us. Computer games like The Sims are all clues, and that time-frame only ever happened once in millions of years of humanity... the Sims was introduced to us with odds of millions to one. The introduction of the home PC is deliberate in this time-frame, and that means that this has to be a simulation for real.
@@pinchopaxtonsgreatestminds9591 very profound. the most profound comment I've read so far in this thread. How can I follow you on other social media? you seem to have a lot of answers :)
Bullet time actually started with the blade movie featuring Wesley snipes
Matrix did bulletime the best.. wesley snipes Blade movie did have it first but it was no contest the matrix did it better.. longer.. and used diffrent people and way more creative implementation...
It was just a matter of camera angles with the matrix because bullies do only go straight
At last an intelligent aproach to this film! What about a video of "Batman begins". I´ll follow yow. Congrats!
Read my mind, Im planning on doing some on each of Nolan’s trilogy 👌🙏🤗
Modern Gamer TV
Geee! Nolan is a Master creating the smartest metaphors.
Looking forward to see that!
Neo goes through the whole second moving ignorant as hell. "I don't know" "What do you mean?" over and over.
Would love to see you analyze Dark City this same way.
What is the name of soundtrack that plays at 3:55
I think the same goes for all movies and experiences. Some see meaning in everything and some in nothing. For example the Movie SPLIT and STARWARS are both very spiritual for me and for a lot of people just entertainment.
this is a great intro to the matrix, and i enjoyed watching it. i do have a difference of opinion on one topic: the interpretation of the film with regards to jean b (never can spell his name). he did not like the way the film interpreted his work, and i think that is because the film (and ultimately all 3 films certainly do this) reject his conclusions. i don’t see it as a hollowed out copy of his book. i see it as commentary that his book is mostly empty. i think the films are a hopeful rejection of nihilism, and they make more than enough references to his work to ensure that there is no confusing their rejection of his philosophical conclusions. anyhow, that’s my attempt to explain it, and hope it makes sense. best wishes to you.
I do not remember ever smelling anything in my dreams. You?
Great analysis.
+erik king thank you so much! 🤠
Nicely done bro! ✊🏽🇨🇱
Many Possibilities, We Didn't Even Go The Alternate Universe Route.
Y'all know that Jean Baudrillard wasn't a fan of The Matrix, right? It fundamentally mistook his ideas in Simulacra and Simulation...
This was pointed out to us in the video...
Great video. This was fun and fascinating.
Extremely quality breakdown thank you
A life changing trilogy and a superb analysis. Have your ever considered the Matrix in the context of Jane Robert's book 'Seth Speaks'?
Excellent video. Thoughts on matrix 4?
I hope its done well.It better not be some prequel crap. Bringing back a epic trilogy after 20 years is a hard task to follow. I really wish both sisters were working on the sequel. I know keanu and carie anne have already been announced as coming back, but what about hugo weaving and Lawrence fishbure?! It wouldn't feel the same without them.
my brain interprets pizza rolls as "good as fuck"
I can’t believe I watched this as a child.
Did the directors come up with the story or was it a book or bunch of writers etc? If they came up with it I feel like we need to know more about them as they created something so special it’s ridiculous
It’s mostly based on Platons Allegory of the cave. But The whole sci-fi stuff is Original.
Who knows what youtube video about the matrix theorises about the color of the shirts they wear in zion? I saw it a while ago, can't find it anymore. The reviewer said if i remember correctly that the blue shirts (trinity, neo and so on) are programs and red shirts (morpheus, niobe and mifune) are humans.
It was linked to the blue and red pill, like color coding.
Someone please help me.
According to youtube, people are very interested in the 18:09 to 18.26 section of this clip... hm, " awakening ", " enlightenment " (..?). Nah, it's a tried and tested field already. Buddhism was banned in Joseon Dynasty Korea, for example, as " a sham ". See the work: " Various treatises concering Buddhism " or " Various arguments against Buddhism " as a piece of literature at that time, as one of the main works behind the government's complete banning of Buddhism, including no monks allowed near the Capitol (capital).
Considering that 18:09 is so popular, ok, then people are thinking " how can I become enlightened " or " how can I achieve an awakening ", similar to Neo in The Matrix. Ok that makes sense, people seek the truth, so then they check Buddhism, check hundreds of movies, check interviews Etc. Etc. Theoretically, to achieve a real enlightenment, then we have to stay within hard facts, and Buddhism isn't known to be a factual religion. It has some concepts of Karma, reincarnation, although the " enlightenment " is more like spacing out in a trancey way, they don't acquire any new level of truth, they just " space out ".
The simulation theory in The Matrix is similar to entering a game, like if we created a super-real VR game 200 years later, which has been addressed in other discussions & videos, such as: " 2016 Isaac Asimov Memorial Debate: Is the Universe a Simulation? "
However their central idea [in the 2016 MIT Harvard Etc. debate] is that the entire universe is simulated more or less from the point of the start of the universe, which was 13.1 billion years ago according to our measurements. So it's like the simulation started back then with the laws of physics and finite x amount of energy and matter (our universe... with '60 Petaflops' of energy, a finite amount, not infinite). That's not ' a game ' it's just like " hitting start " 13 billion years ago, then that's all. And if that's true, it's like, " so what "... what's the difference? There's two worlds, the other world is separate and 'above us' or 'alongside us' for 13 billion years!. ?.
In The Matrix they can exit and enter the world like every day, so it's very different. There will probably be some unhealthy kids 200 years later inside a VR simulation which forget that they are in there, then someone needs to turn off the computer, and they are suddenly outside of their VR after 1 week or 2 weeks in the VR。
A good video on the topic of the game-like simulation, is " What If the Earth Does Not Exist? " by Riddle. Available in youtube. However, the more serious concept, that a simulation started 13.1 billion years ago by our measurements, which simply runs & that's all, could possibly reach evidence sooner or later which is discussed in the 2016 panel debate, i.e. some sort of sensitive instruments which measure " cosmic energy particles " which tear the fabric of spacetime, so those instruments reach evidence that there is a spacetime, which can in fact... be torn.
I cant ever see the shot where morpheus says 'you think that's air you're breathing?' The same ever again after The Matrix Farts
Amazing video ❤️
What is the name of the soundtrack please.🙏
When they stop and walk cause the red or green, is it really because of the danger? Or is danger and illusion used to make you perceive it that way. The red &green light in fact is used to control you.
I can't find any video on original Matrix trilogy scenario, I can't believe there's no video in english on this subject. After the first part, Wachowski brothers simplified story of sequels VERY much to please the masses and make more money. Original story of trilogy was very dark, the ending could be more dark and twisted than Fight Club. Fuck! It was so good, I want to see a movie based on original story.
NY Times didn't like the Matrix? That's a 'tell'.
+fntime I know right? Sometimes you have to ignore the critics!
Because the new York Times are far leftwing. And any film that creates thought and gets the audience to critically think is bad.
This is why mindless films that push an agenda get high ratings.
Look at star wars the last Jedi as an example . Praised by NY times and other critics. Slated by majority of the public. Ghostbusters 2016 another example.
Because the NY times are Globalists just like the Matrix. They dont want you to question for the truth.
Does anyone know the name of the song with the woman singing, or what type of music it is?
It is not even hard to understand. It is fucking awesome
Wow ,i am enlightened!!
Excellent thank you Sir
Yea sure they want simpler plots. They dont want us to think.
11:56- If Disneyland is a simulacrum made possible by capitalism, then what about instrumental music, which predates Capitalism? Instrumental music is also a representation of itself, with no lyrics to tie it down to lived events. I can understand the argument that someone would give about abstract paintings, claiming they were made possible due to the capitalist era- US being an important site- but what argument would you give about instrumental music?
Good job. that was very good
Lock's & Mechanism's.
I used to get annoyed at how socrates claimed he didnt know anything but I realize now how true that is. Its like the people in the matrix claiming they know anything when its all based on assumptions. deeper you go down the rabbit hole, the more unsettling it gets. the world is already made up of batteries, people so dumb they just dont want to think and get used up like batteries by the system, which tends to feed primarily on negative energy. I think if I was given the same option as cypher, I would do the same. reality is just too depressing.
Thank you for this truth!! Gods holy spirit is upon you!!! We are the true children of our God, God of abraham an who parted the red sea...
"dumb down" why that? :thinkingemoji:
Consciousness is the only thing that is real in the universe.
What happened to this channel? I want more of this - such a great work.
Its coming, please dont give up on me! Reeee! I will be uploading much more regularly now that there has been in change in circumstances for me.
The second Matrix is currently being researched and I want to do an even better job in that one.
I hope you like it when it comes out.
Modern Gamer TV Great to hear! I'll be waiting! :)
You can flow with the water or you can. Electrify
I,for one,declare this m0vie to be part of the malevolent deception. Change my mind. 🤷♂️
what you call the music from 1:10 till 2:10 ? Thanks..
Clubbed to death
what was the music used in this video because I really like it
One cant predefine something not exist yet and on the process of construction. It's not about our senses but about something that's exist to where we about to reached to. Ideas is not real until you make it real. Originality is about the law of cause and effects but there're other laws of nature to it than this. Example the law of evolution, what would be it's origin? Where's the answer?
I don't think the Matrix misunderstood Baudrillard at all (who BTW was carrying on a long line of thoughts from other philosophers - see The Mind's I for example). The hyperreality of the entire Matrix cycle (not just the Matrix simulation itself) is the simulacra that has replaced what was there before (machine/human co-existence) which replaced what was there before (pre-AI) and so on. It's all new systems of control replacing old systems of control, an allegory to our real world.
Can debate it but Baudrillard said himself in an interview so I’d politely take his word for it 😉
Spelling is actually George Berkeley but pronounced as "Barkley".
"There is no spoon."
Just to say.. I know the movie is based off Neo being an Anomaly. But the prophecy was true. Showing that in either real world or simulated controlled environments that the creator of All still has dominion over what is created even indirectly. Hence there is A Power or God that is/ existing intelligent designer... and it's nothing we can do or any choice we can make to change it. Neo was the one and Morpheus was right it was only semantics under an anomaly definition that was used to create the self doubt in the believers but the actions carried out by neo saved the humans..... What is ones definition of salvation? If you are created for a purpose and given choices then your interpretation of what your purpose is can be very diffrent to the actual programming purpose of the higher force for you. Hence you are a Savior Vs no you are an anomaly.. Same function same action that will be defined by others who see it from the outside. Just different interpretations about the action one takes.. The one being translated into Anomaly given its own definition but still supplies the same role and function of a Savior.. Nuance that is all
Note Trinity said he couldn't die because he was the one to her because she fell in love with him that was triggered by the prophecy then he came back to life. The prophecy was another form of control in the matrix passed down from the real Creator of the real world but they interpretated it from being from the matrix hence it's designed by a programmer that's not real . Even to the point Neo could use power outside the matrix. The movie is based off ones own individualality to use his or her purpose wether high roles or lesser roles to help save humanity which is God/YHWH purpose from the first fall... Notice they made a matrix to perfect for humans but our ways caused them to have to change it to an environment that suited our sin or self desired nature. So the problem was us fighting against the real programmer God and we created programs who were inferior to us that became our God in there programming created for us. The dream in the dream in the dream.
What’s the comic strip to the right of ghost in the shell depicted at the beginning ?
I think it's Transmetropolitan
What's not to understand..I got it, they explain it in the dialogue if anyone couldn't understand its not complicate to understand
The movie skips over why neo has a problem with the world. Like what did he notice? How the programmers are fucking with him? Other statistical impossibilities in his daily life? Woulda been cool to explore. Guess we'll leave it up to the real thing.
