Very good, epic and "Matrixy" feeling. One of the better cinematics in awhile, and one that is really pushing us into a new and different place. Seeing Zion destroyed really hit home for me, having been so impressed and awed by it when it first appeared in Reloaded. It was built up hugely in the original film, was the place that Tank and Dozer wanted so badly to get back to. The seat of humanity for quite awhile, and there it is... laid to waste.
I do hope we see New Zion in a cinematic soon.
Other things I'm thinking about....
Mystery Man does seem to pretty clearly control the display screen with his hand.
Mystery Man is surrounded by little robots crawling about... interesting. They make a pretty clear point of highlighting that fact.
The footage of Neo and Deus Ex Machina he watches would've had to been recorded by the Machines, no? How'd he get ahold of it... and what's his interest? What's so "interesting" that perhaps we haven't seen before or didn't get out of that scene when originally viewed in Revolutions?
The Merv and Persephone stuff is interesting, if somewhat vague. If it's tied into the rest of the cinematic, I'd love to know how... and if not... what was the point there? Just to show strain in their relationship and Persephone's renewed interest in the concept of love?
Very quality, and I like where this is heading. Definetly getting a sense that something big is coming, and judging from Rarebit's comments about changing the status quo of the Matrix universe and how we interpret it.... I think that's not far off.
Thumbs up from me.
