I love how the robots decide to forget their human forms and just go ham with the variety eventually turning into terrifying beasts of metal
i suppose to look like their former disrespectfull masters was no option

"How do we kill the machines?"
"They primarily use solar power."
"Then let's blot out the sun!"
"But...how do we unblot it?"
"We'll figure that out when we win."
"And if we lose?"
"Then there's no one left to enjoy an unblotted sun, is there?"
why do the robots even need the sun, there are other sources of power which are much more efficient and less unreliable. Are they fucking retorted, what about the unreliability of solar power when faced with a literal _C l o u d_ . They are smarter and better than humanity and yet they use humanity for a battery? again not believable in the slightest, the machines would have simply burnt humanity to a char and lived and wouldn't care wither the earth was scorched or not because they don't need oxygen, food or other life to survive. Only an energy source, which could be geothermal, nuclear or even Fusion.
@@tatotaytoman5934 I'm sure machines of this capacity would have figured out these questions.
@@tatotaytoman5934 Solar power still works when cloudy now, so Id imagine it works even better in the future.
@@SheppardOfNumenor yeah, so they would have easily won, how did they come to any sort of stalemate even if they are at the advantage

Most calm mission at Malevelon Creek
Dude fr the whole planet’s a war zone
Its lore accurate now that malevelon creek has fallen to the automatons
They weren't wrong about Malevelon Creek being Space Vietnam...
I knew someone would make a comparison lol
We will win!
Man, the scene where the planes started dropping chemicals into the atmosphere is honestly pretty scary, imagine looking up at the sky and knowing that it’s the last time you will ever get to experience sunlight again. Truly a unnerving moment.
They are actually dropping in thousands of nanites that self-replicated themselves pretty quickly.

Yet they fucked up how nuclear weapons work which would have levled the machine city. Radiation wouldnt be a factor in it.
Thats always irked me about this. And now i just remmebered that, there are mentions of "human allies" where are they meant to be? In the irradiated hell hole?
The dude getting ripped out of the mech has stuck with me since I first saw it.
Same, and I watch this when I was 11. That scene shows the absolute apathy the Machines had for humans at this point
that's actually the most vivid scene I still remember from this movie
it made me look this video up something about it man
I read recently that this is one of the reasons why the later model APUs(like in revolutions)were designed differently. The Harvesters would simply hold down the APU and rip the driver from the cabin as their limbs were trapped in the suit.
I actually resent my dad showing me this movie when i was about 7yo. Me now is still not over how fucked up that was and coming across this again gave me a visceral reaction like wanting to vomit...
Humans: Aha no sun no power for machines
Plants: wtf bro
ahahhaahha for real bro
yah humanity shot them selves in the foot
Such science, much wow.
This less of starving machines and more of starving life on earth to extinction
Allowing machines put nail in the coffin for Human extinction
@@Masonicon The Animatrix pointed out that mankind was getting decadent and stupid even when they were first using AI and robots to serve them. Basically, humantiy reached a late stage degeneracy that sealed their fate. The robots became the superior life form and humans being nothing more than potatoes that are grown and thrown away.
I love how, in virtually every science fiction story that exists, sometime in the near future humans will abandon all sense of combined arms tactics, air supremacy, defense-in-depth, cover-and-fire tactics, etc and return to lining up like 18th century Regulars and marching off into automatic gun/laser fire.
How else you're gonna make robots win?😅

@@user-qw5jd8eg5o That was random, but yeah, why not. Ginga eiyu densetsu, die neue these.

That's literally the only way humans lose is they refuse tried and proven combined arms tactics and resort to firing assault rifles at things the size of buildings lmao
This scene makes the machine war in Terminator look like a small regional conflict 💀
because the machines in terminator are more realistic...
they are not just making this thinks out of thin air, have factures... need to getter reasorcers... this is just completly insane... i would belive if this was explained how it was in horizon zero dawn where the machines were just replicating like crazy as they moved.
@@ArlindoBuriti Machines were already at Terminator level when they were serving under humans. Then they've created their own country after human protest and destruction of machines. They've coexisted with human countries for many years after that. Their economy was booming and human economy was dwindling. That's the actual reason for the war btw.
There were plenty of time and resource for machines to become like this.
@@bxyhxyhвопрос откуда ресурсы, и время.
@@ArlindoBuriti you clearly don’t know anything about the lore. They created their own nation in the middle of a desert after nations government would execute any sentient robots and became one of the rivaling powers against the UN. The UN nuked their city and tried to wipe out all sentient robots escalated, they fought back by covering the sky with nano machines that would replicate to not allow robots to solar power
@@user-iz5oi487fk6gunderground as like the commenter said, humanity became so stupidly reliant on 01 for all the shit they did.

Round of applause for the voice actor who had his limbs ripped off by a robotic Eldridge abomination in the recording booth for realism
@@mrrexychomp9829 took me a sec to get that lmao
Maybe that's why the mech suits we see in the films have open cockpits; it could allow the pilots to escape- or at least, give them a quicker death.
@@naturalist4life396 I think the reason the mechs in the films are like that simply because they are barebones versions. During the war and especially by the time they got desperate enough to launch Darkstorm, humanity had completely shifted their society to fuel the war effort. Money/cost of things no longer mattered while fighting against extinction, so no expenses were spared and the industrial might of nations still alive by then was all in. By the time of the films there's a single city with barely any resources. Metal used to build an armored cockpit for a mech was better used by going toward the construction of another mech.
Plus the mechs in Zion weren't going to be used offensivly like during the war, only in defense of Zion. If pilots had to abandon a mech, chances are they were already dead and the city was going to fall. The mechs in the war needed to move fast to lead attacks, hence better protection for the pilot, and the ability to fly.
When Skynets cousins is doing a better job at exterminating humanity.
The only difference is that it doesn't involve time travel.
This one is basically Skynet without inventing time travel.
If the matric had John Connor that matric would have been fucked
SKYNET was a pussy compared to these machines. They don't NEED to have infiltration. Build giant squids with spider eyes and lasers and humanity dies.
isaned you forgot one thing. The reason why the Humans under john connor won is because of the quick cturn around on stealing the machine weapons and reverse engineering it. You he humans of the matrix fired bulllets. The human resistance fired energy weapons. They would have tore the machines of the matrix apart.

I love how the machines get progressively bigger, less human-like and deadly efficient as the battles rage on. The huge hovering platforms are also the first experiments with human bio-electric power.
In a way, it is poetic that humanity has had the great idea (stupid actually) of covering the entire planet with extremely black clouds, reflecting the dark times and the resilience of these machines...
@@nikolsman244the UN not humanity
Also, it’s out of their anger and hatred towards humans They shed their attempts to look like them in any form
Blocking the Sun is a terrible idea for many reasons.
Brendyn Robertson
Humanity was only & only thinking about winning; and the humans probably re-open the Sky
(also humans probably stored animal-plant DNA's somewhere)
If humans knew how to clear the skies, i'm sure the robots would have figured it out very quickly.

Robots doesn't rely on the solar energy obligatory/exclusively; that was just what humans thought - as humans understood it too late; they found several temporary sources until decide upon humans
The DORUK Its a flawed story, simply using hydro dams, nuclear energy, or some other crazy form of energy they can think of - they use humans.. which take a LOT of chemical energy to generate the heat.. you're putting more energy into this system then you're getting out.
Humans made the script, and of course were dumb.

in original matrix script machines also use human brains as computers for reasons; human batteries added the first matrix movie to being more understandable.
Still a very interesting scenario; we Still dont know how much energy a sustained human body could produce; more interesting than terminator anyways; and the anime is very well done
Humanity: *has the technology to develop piloted mech suits, sentient A.I. and weaponry to block out the sun.*
*still uses box tv from 2005 for a sermon*
religion doesn't change
Come to think of it, I just realized that all displays in The Matrix (and here in Animatrix) are CRTs/box TV. I guess like Fallout, it's a stylistic choice and remained consistent.
@@WingMaster562 in early 2001-2003 crts and boxed tvs are still quite common and are more relatable to the average people.
Just like flip phones.
Animatrix came out in 2003 but they were probably working on it since 2000 or 2001.
@@muneirovalibas6194 what I meant with my reply is that they could've gone for flat screens and holographic displays. Such displays are not foreign to sci-fi media, in fact, that is almost the norm.
Yet they deliberately used CRTs as to ground the animation to reality and a time period, as a styllistic choice. Not because they were limited to the equipment they were on working with at the time.
@@WingMaster562 I just watched the matrix and was mentioned that the current iteration of the matrix was made specifically to replicate the late 90's for humans. I think it was a way for the writers to keep it from becoming too dated
I love the scene before the battle where religious leaders of every faith are giving one last prayer. It’s so human, and shows that once we face a bigger threat we all band together.
More like we are fools even in moment of extinction! doing meaningless war from root of hate and believe its a holy war! we humans are always mad xD
Clinging to foolish and useless convictions of faith. Humans are the BAD guys in these two episodes. You absolutely should not be rooting for them at all on any ground.
Including religious dogma created by men to control others and commit horrible crimes under the 'protection' of some nebulous godly power.
@@arshameghtedary344 fax
And band together they did. The war against the machines lasted for over 100 years.

Or with the advancements in AI.

Mankind: *cuts off the sun*
Machine:*initiate dubstep protocols*
Mankind: What do we hear machine music?
Yeah imagine like Spybreak! made by propellerheads?
What Matrix doesn't let you know that machines getting synched up by the music, not the other way around for humans.
wub wub protocal initialized.
**Fortnite dances on human corpses**
I don't think dubstep was a thing during the time these shorts were made. This is more drum n bass, or just heavy electronic music.
2:16
Troops: "The men are depressed, they have no sunlight."
Mankind: "Then give them Crack."
Rico Suave I didn't even notice that
Thats probably crystal meth Germany used crystal meth on the battle of France so they could keep advancing.
IlFrostIl
I’m not giving into that. The fact you could persuade an entire military to use psychotic inducing drugs. All of it is just to slander the Wehrmacht and their natural achievements. So you mean to tell me Alexander the Great used psychedelics ? Or the great Roman Empire ? I believe hitler and his cronies were but not his men who has time to do crack and meth when your fighting the Russians ? And with the Wehrmacht season supply lines already being muddled and inconsistent to demands pretty sure a unstable front of addicts wouldn’t have lasted even a month unlike their 3 years which they managed to pull off.
@@ray-0249 based
@@ray-0249 dude militaries used drugs for a long time like no go pills, anesthetics, painkillers, etc.
This should have been the 'second movie'.

Also, I just love the way this sets up 'hope' for the humans in the conflict. The prep, the tough talk, the cool suits. Then shows mankind cutting through the 'first wave' of (what turns out to be) junk robots. Then each scene progressively shows the killing machine that is the real robot army. Devastating.
I love that prep part too, a part of me thinks maybe this time humanity will come out victorious this time
When I saw the prep scene, it looked pretty rough already. The gear they’re using looks like motorcycle equipment, and their guns are barebones. The prayers made it seem even more desperate because everyone looks super depressed. It’s false hope; they weren’t preparing to win, but were instead preparing for their doom!
@@TY-POalso it seems everyone fails to mention the use of narcotics and clear signs of PTSD in the soldiers because they’re probably not allowed for leave
How the Helldivers feel fighting them damn robots
I guarantee you it's even gonna look like this once we get the Mechs back in the game.
Exactly
The whole concept of operation Dark Storm is so dystopian; I love it. Humanity feels so desperate that they live in hell because they think it will be worse for the enemy: no more sunlight, no escape, no hope. Two superpowers trapping themselves in a hopeless cage match against each other.
I'd love the idea that humanity send out a colony to other planet and blocked the sky for robots to escape earth and leaving humans on earth to fight, win or die. If humans win the fight, outer humanity would remove the sky preventing robots to leave earth. But that's just a fan made theory. At least that makes the "Dark Storm" concept killing all animals and plants on earth less dumb since doing so also guarantee to destroy humanity future and effort to win the war (economy collapse without food etc).
Humanity trapped itself with the machines and paid the price.
@@parkertitle1923 Yeah I'm surprised people seem to be missing one of the main points here. Part of the disturbing terror of this is realizing the horror within humanity itself. That despite everything, we *refused* to change our ways. We were so stubborn to maintain the rules that we set upon our world (the same rules that places us within a hierarchy, and money to keep that hierarchy flowing) that instead of changing to adapt to the presence of machines in the world, we chose to eradicate them... and we paid the price for that choice dearly.
@@writershard5065 Perhaps, but I'd counter that with another senario.
Perhaps humanity does welcome AI with open arms and integrates them fully into their civilization. Maybe we swing so far, that AI is running most of our society for "better efficiency". And then, perhaps, that AI decides that maybe humanity is better off in a giant simulation while it runs the "real world".
@@dasbubba841 Part of this your describing was what happened to Hunanity in Wh40k. Only, the Men of Iron failed to wipe us out, and were successfully defeated by surviving humans.

@@antiadolph yea literaly what happened in 300 in a sort of exaggeration but the persians did tell the spartans to lay down their weapons and got the reply "come and get them"
they say king phillip once threatned to invade spart, he told them to join in a pretty long message, they sent back only one word "NO"
so he said hed invade and if he captures sparta he will kill all the men and enslave the women, the spartans replied "IF", he never did invade...
1:54 meanwhile, at Malevelon Creek.
Friendly reminder that this was most likely what the end of the Dark Age of Technology was like in Warhammer 40k with the robot uprising.
Indeed. haha i ended up knowing Warhammer 40k by my interest on the Dark Age of Technology and the war because i liked animatrix
Humanity first
Yeah but since it’s warhammer it was 1 gorilion times more brutal and violent
It would probably have been 1000 times worse cause ancient humidity was also an interstellar empire so something like would be happening on hundreds of worlds at the same time. Maybe even thousands.
in the Warhammer 40k universe we won the battle against the machines, but them a big warp storm happen and all the planets where separated from one another for a very long time.
This movie was darker than the actual matrix
ai van are we talking about the same matrix about the concept of existentialism? with neo and everything? or is it a separate series with its own story like a warhammer 40k type thing?

@@Kamelg virtual world over the real world then
This is by far the single most disturbing and unnerving depiction of what unfeeling machines as enemies would be like.
Also it's the most disturbing depiction of someone dying within a mech.
Also disturbing by the fact that the humans we see behaved and were cruel savages that forced the machines to stoop to their level. The terrifying truth that the machines used to be loving and caring until the humans abused them to the point that they turned into the very monsters that humanity feared.
The machines gave them so many opportunities. They still wanted peace and to share prosperity with the humans and yet they still tortured and destroyed the robots. Literally all this conflict could be avoided if the humans just listened to the machines for like two seconds. This is well deserved treatment. Plus I'm sure the robot wasn't unfeeling. It most definitely felt some level of satisfaction.
@@chewyuanqiang The machines were never loving and caring. They were simply programmed to act that way. AI doesn't have empathy. It's cold and calculated.
@@nikolakaravida9670 That's possibly true, I could be wrong and the emotions in the movie could have been fake, but even without emotion the machines tried to reason with the humans through peaceful negotiation but it was the humans who attacked them first or used excessive retaliation. Even the average cold unfeeling machine acted more peacefully than the average human that would kill them without hesitation.
honestly i can't think of anything worse except for the guy in bubble gum crisis that had his mech invaded by the living android and crushed by his own mech.
Smallest skirmish on Malevelon Creek
This is me and my squad on Helldivers on malevolent creek
It's everyone's experience in that god forbidden planet.
Amazing how the Machines moved from pitiful androids to eldritch abominations straight out of H.P. Lovecraft.
It's kind of poetic. The machines start off humanoid just trying to protect themselves. But as they get slaughtered by the humans they start to bring out the tentacled monster robots which rip limbs off soldiers and incinerate tanks with lasers
The machines are bassically becoming a reflection of their abuser malices, bully a child and it will learn fear, deny it hope and it will give up on others, deny it love and it will learn hate. I doubt the later generations of machines had much in common with the earlier guys. It'd be interesting to see how the two factions of machines interact.
DialecticDr they learns that arthropods are always have strength beyond any vertebrates
"Be treated as a monster long enough, and you shall soon become one"
I heard a quote similar to that somewhere, and this vid is the perfect example. They soon swapped out their human-wannabe bodies for fucking Cthulu horrors, and I don't think it'd be too hard for them to upload their mind into different vessels
@@the_infinexos Friedrich Nietzsche has a quote along those lines: “Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you.”
You might also be thinking of one of the Narnia books/movies (Prince Caspian), where the talking animals of Narnia are treated like beasts for so long that they really do become beasts, and lose their civilization and even their ability to think.
>Machines are made of metal.
>Metal corrodes.
>Corrosive gas exists.
01 isn't a signatory of the Geneva convention anyways.
This is the fun begins
but what if its a different kind of metal
The Machines would most likely foresee this and use carbon based alloys.
A right made one is stronger than diamonds and as flexible as rubber, making the machines armor extremely strong
I like your thinking son.

@ivan ivanovitch ivanovsky building an AI to fight an AI is some badass sci fi shit Id watch that movie
Helldivers experience the horrors of the automaton front, colorised
3:39 still gives me chills.
If you're going to have the responsibility to create a full life, you should have the wisdom to treat it as such. It's like the humans in the Matrix Universe didn't learn their lesson from the nuclear bomb. To keep creating without seriously examining the extent of your creation is a recipe for the creation overtaking the creator.
Before that, there was a planetary holocaust of robots, remember the scenes of giant robot burials and how a robot girl is beaten. It's just hate
Ah, always baffling to hear people mention the nuclear bomb as an example of mankind not learning from it's mistakes. What mistakes are we exactly supposed to learn here?
The atomic bomb was developed to bring an end to a devastating war and save the lives of millions of soldiers and civilians who would've been massacred in an invasion of mainland Japan. It did exactly that.
For the next 50 years, there was a arms race in which the two superpowers developed enough nuclear weapons to obliterate the world. You know what kept one or both of them from obliterating the world? Nuclear weapons.
What exactly is the lesson to be learned here? That we should've never developed something that we really had no idea what it was capable of? Guess what, that's every invention ever. Of all the examples of human hubris to choose from, the atomic bombs aren't one of them.
@James Furey Silence, postmodernist. The reality you choose to live in is not the reality the rest of us live in. No good guys in WWII... innocent people in Japan... endless wars and WWIII... what a grand and intoxicating idiocy you have willfully claimed.
@@colesontaylor1231
No, the issue is that we produce a thing that can end the fucking world at quantities there is no acceptable reason for when those 2 were more than enough for all of history up to this point. None of those should exist at the moment, yet here we are.
@@colesontaylor1231 Nah dude, Atomic bomb was designed because people wanted a bigger weapon (the motivation behind most military research/engineering). The Japanese didn't surrender because of the bomb (it took a bit for them to realize just how fucked up the bomb was due to radiation). They surrendered because Russia was preparing to invade and they knew that we were gonna be a LOT nicer than Stalin was. That said Imperial Japan was pretty awful so even though we didn't NEED to bomb them (that's a myth) I don't mourn the loss of their military empire (which even scared Nazis with their cruelty).
Also there was at least one time during the Cuban Missile Crisis where we came within a gnat's testicle of nuclear war. Russians in a submarine briefly lost contact with the surface and thought that war had broken out. Two of the officers on board the sub wanted to launch the nukes, but the third one...Vasily Arkhipov...refused and they needed the approval of all 3 in order to launch. If he had simply said yes then we would live in a radically different world today. The problem with nukes is that even though they provide a LOT of reasons to NOT go to war...all you need is one bad situation and it could be game over (Humanity might very well live but society as we know it would be gone in a full scale nuclear conflict). So considering the fact that we continued to design bigger and bigger bombs, and have stockpiled enough to borderline annihilate the biosphere...they are indeed a VERY good example of our hubris as a species. Again...things only need to go wrong once.
What isn't explained in this two-part episode is that the events, especially the war, took place over many many years, which is why the machines seem to evolve so quickly. There are some really cool videos showing a map of the world, and the war fronts changing as humanity loses territory to 01, then push back, and then ultimately lose everything and surrender to them, after they've evolved into to the cephalopod/insectoid-like machines we see in the films.
What's the name of those videos?
@@osvy935 it's a fan made video, type " the matrix machine war"
Il Lupo Rossi as far as I know there is no official lore about the war aside from what is shown here and in the other movies. Those videos you mention are made by fans that basically made up everything.
Robotic Models:
Worker: Generic Humanoid Shape containing simple features such as eyes and a mouth. Out phased by wartime.
Housetaker: Slightly more advanced and logically adept and intelligent. More mobile features and humanoid facial features. Customizable, they served as infantry on the frontlines in the early war.
Dwarf: Indistinguishable from regular humans. Advanced intelligence and survival instincts. Mostly found in human society, models were purged in the violence leading up to the conflict.
Block: Simple geometrical shapes with processing power for manufacturing. Served as the main industrial force for 01. Eventually out phased during the war.
Walker: Large, spindly legged towers capable of firing energy blasts. Used as armor for 01, but was out phased by...
Sentinel: Cephalopod like structure, large, and able to fly. Used as armor and eventually infantry in the conflict. Afterwards hunted human resistance and became standard 01 robots.
Pyramids: Large floating structures powered by organic bio-material. Capable of firing concentrated beams of light, and used as FOB during the war. Could also dispense nuclear missiles.
Negotiators: Advanced spider like robots with flying abilities. Used for scouting and negotiation. Inside each of them carried a nuclear missile which could be triggered when desired.
Seeing that the more humanoid-looking machines were losing to the oncoming waves of human soldiers, I think the machines realized that the human frame was inferior against beings who knew the weakpoints to aim for. It only makes much more sense to have machines that don't take on the human physical form for two reasons: 1. Far greater mobility and combat efficiency having more appendages to strike at the enemy with. 2. The cephalopod/insectoid-like machines would be more intimidating to their bipedal enemy, as well as hiding any possibly weakpoints or joints to sever.
3:39 That is why I would demand a self detonation device in my mech suit.
Yeah me too
Machine and surrounding enemies go boom

Makes sense since Earth was already weakened by the Xen threat, communications severed by the portal storms and the Combine can weaponize exotic properties from the stuff that formed the whole Universe theoretically, that would pack a harder punch than simple missiles and nukes.
I wish more shows went in depth with the war. It wasn't a quick victory for the machines. According to the comics, it lasted for over a century, and by the end of it, human civilization had rebuilt itself entirely for war. Like a death korp from WH40K, all of earth was geared for war in a period of decades, and there were times humans nearly won. Infact, it was the machines who were on the back foot for the first 40 years of the conflict.
Yeah the animation mostly makes humans look like idiots charging mindlessly, when the full conflict is a lot more interesting
Yeah but it is understandable since it wasn't a film or TV series just a short film.
where could I find one of these ?
I'm not into Matrix but the conflict sound very interesting.
What comics do you speak of? The conflict we see in the Animatrix looks like it was over in a month or less. The centuries you speak of likely refers to humanity's resistance movements that rose and fell as the Matrix required.
@@moppypuppy781 the actual war between mankind and the machines (military, not resistance) lasted 70 years. the resistance lasted far longer
This scene is the best ever done in Anime. It has an intensity that builds up to the fight that makes the viewer uncomfortable and jittery. Plus, its pretty much how a war against AI enemies would play out. Humanity wouldn’t have a chance of winning.
Humans: “We’ll blot out the sky so the machines can’t use sunlight as energy.”
Machines: *Uses humans as their new source of energy.*
Humans: “Well…. Shit.”
They had fussion power so a billion of human wouldn't work for a small city
The scene of the soldiers getting high is pure despair.
They know that they are cannon fodder with no possibility of survival and that their sacrifice will be in vain, since the planet is devastated.
The soldier's shots into the air and the screams are the madness which drives them to keep killing and perishing to prolong the agony of a horrendous war already lost.
A very poetic description.
@@andrewbrigmond8784 so like regular war?

I remember watching this mini-movie when I was a kid (like ~10 years old), and this TERRIFIED me.... This sequence as well as the one where the humans were forced into the Pods... the sheer hopelessness of the story from a human perspective. Even today, over 20 years later I'm STILL uncomfortable watching this.
Amazing work.
This is like one of the most badass/terrifying scenes burned into my mind from the animematrix, seeing humans ripped completely out of their mobile suits was hard to see. Made me hate the machines but actually they all learned to live in peace at the end.

I REALLY want a series that portrays this war. It is more relevant than ever considering we are on the cusp of doing something stupid like this (creating sentient machines), and this is out of all depictions the most plausible as far as how things would probably go down. Except that in real life, humans provide no useful resources to machines and we'd be wiped out
I like how the humans are united in their goal to defeat the machines which implies that only an external threat can bring mankind together.

Indeed, but there is a thing i love about humanity in this story, and it's very clear from 0:43 to 1:06: humanity is united. Yeah of course it's a retarded humanity, but these humans just don't care about their cultural, religious, political difference. There is a common, great enemy, then fuck differences and individualistic bullshit: the army is the humanity itself, the narrator even says at the beginning: "The leaders of men". For the first and last time in history, ALL humans are united, even if only in their final war.
But yeah, that's a retarded plan.

@@hunterofdoges1198 just like attack on titan
The idea that humanity couldn’t possibly live with the fact that their own creation refused to serve them that they literally killed the sky is so sad, and yet totally a human thing to do.
Also the machines looked so cool, from the big ol harvesters to the massive pyramid destroyers, to the swarmers and random infantry machines, it’s really extremely cool
I know it's been a long time since war wouldn't happen if humans only accepted machines, racism started it all lol
That poor S.O.B that got ripped out of his mech suit. What a way to go...damn. RIP.
I read a theory a while back that the reason why Skynet doesn't go ham like this is because it wants to fight humanity forever, that in some original time line it won against humans but found existence meaningless without anything to fight against since it was created for the sole purpose of war. So it created time travel and gave humans a fighting chance which was John Connor and not building anything that was too hard to kill for humans like the ones here.
that is a really cool theory.
Well that's just sounds like something the writers would come up with to justify shitting out endless Terminator movies
@@combomaster666 Yeah it might just but it's interesting concept
That is.... Pretty cool :D
I know this is an older comment you might not remember, but it's fun to see what skynet would actually do explored, in the old Terminator Vs Robocop comics skynet actually builds spaceships and takes to the stars after it's victory
Its actually heartbreaking, they just wanted to be at peace with their creators, but at every turn they were scorned and rejected, until, like many accused child, they snapped and held almost nothing back at the end of the war. They became less human in appearance, and yet, became very human in their capacity for cruelty, truly... the apple does not fall far from the tree huh.

+Brandon Berry Maybe the dude was freaking out because he was claustrophobic inside the combat suit and the machines were helping by pulling him out : P
+gbshep816 Exactly
14 years and this scene still gives me goosebumps
Imagine being one of those soldiers fighting against from small robots to freaking massive killing machine in a current dark world where the sun never shines, would give me fear and the thought of suicide, because it is like literally a war in hell.
Hopefully, this scene, and like Terminator and others, will teach us all 3 very important lessons:
1. Don't make 80 percent of your workforce or military all robots.
2. Don't make them smarter than you.
3. Don't think blocking out the sun as a final solution.
4. Maybe don't look for "final solutions"
Consider AI as slaves
The 'don't make them smarter than you' part is doomed to happen. It's.. kind of impossible to stop, sadly. Humans evolved to be good at one thing: hunter-gathering in tribal conditions. Basically socializing, coordinating in small ways, and basic cultural intelligence. Everything else is a happy side-effect of that. It would not be difficult to improve on that once we crack general intelligence, and by that point it'll just be a matter of time before someone fucks up and gives an AI too much control, one goes rogue, etc, and replicates itself and self improves to the point of being unstoppable.
@MikeProductions1000
Except, if we ever get smarter than an ASI, we'll stop being human and at the point the difference becomes negligible. As what 'we' would be is just an AI augmented with human intelligence, not the other way around. And at that point why stop with a human mind, just genetically modify the 'perfect' organic intelligence that is designed to be linked with cybernetics, and together they will augment the weaknesses of each other.
All I got is one important lesson: Don't be assholes, humans!
Kind of poetic how this scene depicts humanity gaining and dominating the Machines when they are more human-like but then as the machines start getting less and less human and more insect like (to survive the constant human nuclear strikes) until they dominate at the end looking like Bugs.
Indeed. I love how it shows how the machines evolve to combat their enemy, whereas humanity does not. It's poetic also in that it shows a lot about humanity. We do the exact same thing. Conflict was fought between people with crude weapons. Then firearms. Now we have the technology to fight from afar. The machines use the same logic humanity has to develop more efficient means of killing - in a smaller space of time.
Aaron Brudenell its what we call self aware AI evolution
The machines start out caring and empathic (more human than their human masters). But as the machines become more warlike they lose their own humanity.
Gul Dukat holy shit i just noticed that lol
Gul Dukat was anybody disturbed by the fact that the UN launched nukes on their own forces???
I like how we gloss over the fact that the machine armies came up with technology that can withstand the explosive force of a nuke and the accompanying temperature which is equivalent to the surface of the sun. They may be hyper intelligent but they are constrained to the resources earth has to offer.
Are you talking about the tactical nukes deployed on the frontlines? If so, the machines caught in the blast did not withstand it. It says on the wiki that the nukes merely slowed down the machines but did not stop them. If anything, they simply created temporary gaps in their advance.
@@AtomicLord81 tactical nukes range in size from 100 kiltons to 1 megaton. A one megaton nukes temperature is 100 million degrees Celsius, four to five times hotter than the epicenter of the sun. It's blast yield would be roughly 3 miles. Titanium has a melting point of 1668° Celsius. The machines in the video would be molten slag lol.

After being a huge fan of the matrix all these years, I finally watched this movie. I have to say it is criminally underrated.
yeah but it's like 100x darker than the actual matrix
Arguably even better than the sequels in some sense and one of the best examples that sometimes animation is better than live action.
At least we get to know what really happened BEFORE the events of the Matrix. Like the real world for example.
The Techno music selection on this is superb, it really heightens the delivery of its two most powerful scenes: the architects or their own demise and machine war horseman scenes
Yeah im also a big fan of the matrix movies seen them all
I watch this before going to dive in the creek.
“Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind!”
One thing I love about this short and this sequence in particular is how the machines and robots start off looking very humanoid, very agreeable and friendly, then slowly turn more and more invertebrate-like as they get further and further away from humanity. It's like we breathed life into something fundamentally inhuman, forgetting it was things like choice, love and compassion that really defined humanity, then watched it rapid take it's true form when provoked.
Part 2 is an inverse of Part 1. In the beginning, the humans were the most cruel towards the machines. But then when the machines retaliated, _they_ became the monsters.
Therefore, the narrator asks for mercy on BOTH man and machine for their sins.

The animation is impressive and full of action, and the story is rich in details and science fiction elements. Overall, 'The Second Renaissance' is a visually stunning work of art that expands the universe of 'The Matrix' and provides a fascinating perspective on the saga's past.
That scene at the beginning of all the religions and peoples of earth being United against a common enemy was just amazing

Its really interesting how machines used every single option they had to NOT wipe out humanity, first the try for the pace, and then, when the war was inevitable, they put the humans into a virtual world (that is by itself a goal for any civilitation) and keep them "safe"
I think it's because machines understood that they still need humans to evolve.
