It is not necessary to have a computer simulated environment in order for humanity to be enslaved. You can be a slave to all kinds of things with very minimal effort. The Matrix is just a cool story to get you to think along those lines. "...

I see a series of actions and reactions that eventually led to the method of control described by the Architect. Here's how I see it going down. 1. Oracle creates her version of the Matrix 2. 1% reject Matrix 3. systemic anomaly the result...

*gives Anubias a high five* Right on, captain!

Who's to say he quit? Perhaps he was simply...reassigned. It is possible for an Exile to still have a purpose that serves the system--even if the system still views him or her as an Exile. Just look at the One; even though the One is a hum...

I wish the game made it possible to live as a bluepill. On one hand there would be players living Sim-like lives and on the other hand there would be redpills who know what's going on behind the scenes. No more NPC bluepills, since they'd...

Perhaps part of the reason he is so powerful is that he takes the time to ask Why.

It makes sense that there would be poser redpills, especially since they are already known to the mainstream media via the Sentinel. There have been many articles about them by Andres Bonifacaieo, and with that kind of coverage, there are...

So is it a fact that Neo's version of the Matrix is the only one that resembled 1999? I know about the paradise version, the feudal Japan version and the version that was similar to the 1999 version, but from earlier in the century. I beli...

Phi, I never got a chance to thank you for posting on the Matrix-Explained forums in response to the whole Decius Wadsworth thing. You posted some very eye-opening facts, and it made things a bit clearer--especially in regard to Cryptos, s...

One of the things that needs to be kept in mind about the One are the two aspects that make him the One. 1) the code he carries 2) the power he receives from the Source The code the One carries is the integral anomaly. What that means is t...

When I watched Revolutions again recently, I was struck by the fact that Neo is continuously stripped of things throughout the movie as he makes his way toward his confrontation with Smith. By the time he fights Smith, all that's left is t...

I believe there are many things the Oracle does know... Oracle: Candy? Neo: Do you already know if I'm going to take it? Oracle: Wouldn't be much of an oracle if I didn't. ...and it's this knowing that she claims makes her the Oracle. But...

From a purely practical standpoint, here's how I see "families" coming about in the Matrix, in conjunction with the fields where humans are harvested. My theory is that the harvesting field reacts to situations that occur inside the Matrix...

I can't speak for myself, but when it came to making philosophical discussions about the Matrix, it wasn't fun anymore once the forums became closed to the public. Many people who once used these forums but didn't play the game were no lon...

The One doesn't die when he reaches the Source. He disseminates the code he carries, then chooses 23 individuals from the Matrix to rebuild Zion. If he's dead, how is he supposed to pick those people? The One is an eventuality of the anoma...

Smith is connected to Neo, because of how Neo defeated him at the end of M1. What happens to Neo happens to Smith. If Neo becomes more powerful, then so does Smith. As the Oracle explained, Smith is Neo's opposite, his negative--the system...

Fantastic job, SuperJenius! Keep up the great work!

RainKingX, I'm passing along a message to you from Intell. He is currently posting on the Matrix-Explained forums and has managed to save the original post called "The Architect vs the Anomaly (Behold! The Nightmare)" http://www.matrix-exp...

RainKingX, I'm currently in the process of trying to figure out the nature of the code Neo carries. I've gone through several different theories and believed some of them at one time or another. But every time I really stop and think about...

Phunkyfella, that one was funny too. Sick, but funny. Me likee.

Here's another one that somebody posted way back in beta on the forums. I find this one to be even funnier than the first one I posted, and it also has more stuff. Also, it's the one which other players thought was serious and posted compl...

My theory is that Seraph is the first being who is the melding of a human and a program. His code is unique, and Neo had never seen anything like it. I understand that his unique code could merely be intended by the Wachowski Brothers to b...
