Revolutions Plot Hole Script

The gates open. As soon as the Hammer enters the dock, they blow the EMP. All the Sentinels DIE.

AN OPERATOR: Wow. We hadn't thought of that to defend the city.

COMMANDER LOCK: You fool. Of course we thought of that. But it would have been too easy to defend the city by triggering a set of timed EMPs one after another, or to rig the tunnels with EMPs. There would be no fight. And what would we do then with all the workstations and the CG software we got for the previous movie? Besides, you'll see there are more Sentinels ready.

AN OPERATOR: Right. Sorry, sir. I forgot it was obvious to use EMPs way back when at the beginning of the war too, instead of screwing up the climate for no reason.

COMMANDER LOCK: Now you're getting it.

This is pure win:

Keanu GOES INTO THE MATRIX. There are millions of Hugo Weavings. It's RAINING and it looks COOL. In Zion, the Sentinels immediately STAND DOWN, even though Keanu hasn't held up to his part of the bargain yet. Laurence Fishburne APPROACHES one of the Sentinels, who is now CUTELY squirming on the GROUND.

INT: Zion

SENTINELPet me.

He STOPS THEM. The bombs explode in MID AIR. It looks COOL. A few Sentinels LATCH onto the BACK of the SHIP as well..

CARRIE-ANNE MOSSSentinels. Kill them too.

KEANU REEVESI can't. There's too many.
 
CARRIE-ANNE MOSSWhat? There are only a few Sentinels. You're stopping thousands of bombs already. What could possibly be the problem with a few more machines?

 KEANU REEVESIt doesn't work like that. Fly into the upper atmosphere instead.

CARRIE-ANNE MOSSThis is a *hovercraft*. Not an airplane.

KEANU REEVESWho are you going to trust? Sir Isaac Newton or me? Point this thing up.

The Hovercraft SHOOTS UP past the cloud cover, and we see THE BEAUTIFUL SKY. Then, like Wile E. Coyote, they REALIZE they can't fly, the ship starts to fall. They have, however, FLOWN PAST the city's defenses, which apparently are only pointed to the outside and can't turn around. The ship FALLS, accelerating rapidly.

*pushes up glasses in a nerdy way*

But I thought the reason the ship lost power was because the sky had some EMP effect! This script is fake!

No, at least that bit is explained in the Animatrix.  The hovercraft (as in, plural of hovercraft.) need an object to repel; without the ground to repel, they just fall.  The way they got up in the first place is by putting 100% of the power into the bottom pads (flight in the hovercraft is done though a lot of diverting power; why it takes two people to pilot one), creating a "jumping" effect.

That was completely and utterly pointless waste of time, that guy has no idea what he's talking about IMO. There were only a few plot holes in that movie that were blatantly obvious. Unless you've played the game and watched the animatrix (and pay attention), your not going to fully understand what's going on at all. I remember walking out of the theater after seeing Reloaded, everyone had this dumb look on their face and kept asking stupid questions. They're probably the same people that thought The Departed was a bad movie. The only reason I think this guy is an idiot is because of dumb explanations like what Deus EX was doing to Neo's body.
