Ok, so maybe I'm a little slow on this one and I don't know if it has been mentioned on DN1 or anything but anyways. That one shot where the guy is watching the battle taking place at Stalingrad on a TV screen reminds me of the way that the architect can watch what is going on in the matrix in his little construct or how in the real you can watch the matrix feed. The odd placement of what seems like the remains of something organic but not necessarily human, the lone person watching, I dunno, is it too late to think about the often hated Matrix within a Matrix idea? It just seems a little odd that there would be a camera feed of stalinggrad that someone in a chair is watching. And although maybe the recent merovingian event points more towards a possible attempt to control the pods, it also made me realize how little we know about the process to obtain power from humans in the pods. Maybe it's all just a very magnificent lie.

I highly recommend you do today's Merovingian critical mission if you have a Mero alt.

Yeah that was interesting to say the least. But, do you think it could be linked to MWAM? I still want someones thoughts on the man in that room and the room itself. Again, a direct feed of Stalingrad? I dunno. I would have thought someone like the general would have tabs on that.

Or perhaps new thoughts. What about the possibility that it is Morpheus, or Neo or someone else in there thats not linked to the machines. Maybe the inconsistencies associated with Morpheus' story about the machines power system is because he was part of the lie? Who knows?

The head looked like Neo's and the room reminded me a little of the base in Matriculated.  Although it being Neo would be very surprising and a bit disturbing from a story prespective.   I just figured it was "Mr. X', a new character or villain that we haven't encountered yet.

Here's an image from the cinematic:

I tend to think it's Morpheus held captive in the General's base but there's no way to be sure of anything yet.

Old Cueball's head is far too big to be him.

I think its the other things present in the room that trouble me more. Like what the hell or those supposed to be? They seem organic. I PM'd Rare about this but he said he couldn't comment.

This head.... doesn't remind me of Morpheus.

It actually reminds me of Neo. It's the shape.

I was just thinking, looking at that image, that, aside from the whatever they are's in the room, the room itself looks very clean and streamlined, very...Machine. It lacks that rustic look of zion. Almost makes me think program. Maybe it was obvious that it was a machine place before because of the Mech Bug that goes across the screen, but I just figured that was a good way to hint that it was in the real.

If I just sound crazy its because its late....
