we all are aquainted with how religious lore iz embedded in the matrix movies....

further proof that this is seventh version....

and on the seventh day GOD ended his work which he had done, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had done.

genesis 2:2

if anyone has seen the origins of the matrix dvd included in the ultimate matrix collection box set, then u would know that all religious lore in the matrix films were done on purpose by the writers.

this version of the matrix has been without a neo since its inception 3 years ago.

the above lore can be interpreted at will regarding said problem of versions

if days were actually versions of simulations; it could make u go ........ whoa!

mmmm

It doesn't.

And stop Mmm-ing its creepy.

Next, the Matrix is not Jeruselaum, the Oracle isn't mary, Neo isn't the baby jesus. Nor is Smith and his merry band of Agents those "Wisemen". Although that is an interesting vision of the nativity..

Pfft. Please. If anybody here knows about "religion and the Matrix" it's me. I used to go by "Yahweh" for crying out loud. Religion left the Matrix when Chadwick started writing it and subsequently handed it off to Rarebit.

Vis a vis, after the movies ended. Ergo, your argument fails.

Furthermore, there have been more than 6 matrices. This is the 6th iteration of the matrix in its current form. There were other, failed matrices as well (such as Ashencourte and the paradise matrices) that were before they even realized the need for the anomaly. So, if anything, this is probably somewhere around the 10th matrix.

So you're trying to say that it must be V7 because the simulation is complete with no errors? Even Ghost said the simulation needs a reset.

Sorry, worst. proof. ever.

Hmmm... that adjustment seems apropos...

Oh and Siren, the story doesn't change to suit. You are playing in a roleplaying game regardless if you want to roleplay or not. This means there are certain things you can't simply ignore, to make your argument fit.

#36300476754 07/10/2008 11:00:24 Re:what iz the matrix?

when did the architect say this?

who interviewed the architect? how can u even get in to see the architect to ask him?

u have to go thru the door made of light; yes?

i dont know; umm give me specifics, so that i may see

and it is obvious to me that because of the events that happened, it wasnt neccessary for neo to return to source for matrix to reboot.

matrix can reboot in a number of ways, i dont know why u find it so hard to believe me. maybe ur just saying crap just to say it in order to mess with me, everything i said has been accurate.

the only way for what u are saying to be true is to "re_make" the movies according to ur vision and make sure u change the ending, take out the effects of it changing, make sure u show all the blue pills wake up as the oracle did, then re-write the dialogue between the oracle and the architect so as to mention that smith was just cleaned up, and actually show him in another shot where he is hugging the other agents as they welcome him back. and have the archetect look at camera and say hey this is same matrix az before.

unfortunatley i dont think the brothers will let u do that, so u will have to wait 40 years before u can do that.

untill then.... im afraid all proof is in my favor and there is no denying that; try as u may, there is no getting around it; im soo sorry

When did he say what? It would help if you quoted to what you are referring to.

We may not be able to go and visit the Architect, but he has made visits to the simulation.

#36300476759 07/10/2008 11:10:42 Re:what iz the matrix?

You mean you don't remember the scene in Reloaded where Neo told the Architect "This RP sucks, I quit?"

Said it in reloaded. I suggest you go watch it again and this time not sleep through the parts with no explosions and gun fights. Neo interviewed him so we don't need to ask and yes he did go through the door of light. Specifics? How about this quote by the man who's the only authority on the Matrix, The Architect.

"The Matrix is older than you know. I prefer counting from the emergence of one integral anomaly to the emergence of the next, in which case this is the 6th version."

That there tells you how he is keeping count. Neo never made it to the source thus we are still in version 6 and the cycle was broken (that was the whole point of the whole Oracle leading Neo thing) meaning no other anomaly was created inside the simulation to bring about the seventh version.

And just because the rest of this crap bothers me and I already know where you are going with it...

and it is obvious to me that because of the events that happened, it wasnt neccessary for neo to return to source for matrix to reboot.

Oh really? Burden of proof, look it up. You claiming that there are other ways means you have to show proof of them. That part at the end of revolutions? Nope sorry that's just a rewriting not a reboot. Similar to what happens in the first film. Machines just rewrote everything (mind you it is a rather big rewrite)

The only reason it wasn't necessary was because the Oracle was pulling the strings and not going along with the intended plan. Had she never stepped in Neo would of done exactly as every other One would have.

#36300476869 07/10/2008 15:36:57 Re:what iz the matrix?

I just keep waiting for Siren to spout his 'Wrong Answer' reply. This thread has turned into a farce because the OP just cannot bring himself to even consider that he may be wrong and makes up faux facts to augment his already flaccid argument. The proof insn't in his favour as he has presented none, only his own opinions most of which have been debunked by logical and reasonable arguments.

It has, however, been good to see everyone else's opinion on it even if they do, for the most part, follow the same similar line of logic and credibility.

#36300476902 07/10/2008 17:08:30 Re:what iz the matrix?

jeez vinia

there is something that u need to know about me and that iz i think outside the box and u can say anything that u want about me but i would like to make a point here.

it is 2 dimensional thinking to consider that since neo did not go back to source, the matrix could not be re-booted. and it is 2 diminsional to believe that the version of the matrix we saw in revolutions did not crash and have to be rebooted to another version.

the whole choice thing; red pill or blue pill, to believe or not to believe, to be with power or without power, this door or that door was shattered in revolutions. for neo created a third choice.

choices were shattered, the matrix crashed! the one was a lie! it is all a system of control.

that control failed!

hell yes this is a new version of the matrix! and i dont really think that u guys are the serious experts that u claim to be, if u were u would agree with me. i mean come on, get ur head in the game and think it through completely.

let me break it down completly for u....

trinity was supposed to die in the matrix, neo saved her

smith was an unplugged program, found a way to get out of the matrix.

neo was blinded but found a way to see

neo found out eveything is a lie

smith took complete control of the matrix

neo went to machine city

matrix was rebooted without neo returning to the source

now everything above was done for the very first time ever

this game is not version 6. the movie was version 6.

some of u guys have said that some of this stuff in this game is not canon; that in and of itself is saying that this is not version 6.

rarebit can come on as the merv and say anything in chat; unless it is approved by the brothers; its not canon.

anyway

for all of u who read this; it is true that we are playing version 7, version 6 did crash when smith took over everything. watch the last film, nothing in that last film indicates that it did not reboot. all the proof the nay sayers have is what was said by the architect in the previous film which holds no water since it was before revolutions. we find out in revolutions that the one is just another form of control.

its 2 dimensional thinking about a film that shatters that form of thinking.

anyway

i look foward to see u guys in game; dont forget to come to the party tomorrow night for asagi; it is her farewell party for she is retiring from mxo. it will be in debir court.

#36300476912 07/10/2008 17:25:34 Re:what iz the matrix?

I think what Siren is struggling to convey is that we are beyond the numbered versions of the Matrix and the cycle of the One. This is a new version of the Matrix, one never seen before and beyond the intent of its creators.

From a philosophical standpoint, this would be a considered feasible. Call it version 7, or version 0, or Nirvana, or the Matrix: New and Improved! if you want. The point is (I think), things are different now.

Although, Siren, you are wrong about the system being rebooted. According to Matrix Online canon, that didn't happen. Yet.

No its called useing LOGIC and REASON. Logic dictates that because Neo never reached the source the cycle was not continued sense that was the only way to bring about a new cycle. And sense the number of cycles is the measure we judge what version of the Matrix we are in, you are clearly wrong in saying we are in version 7. Even for a pseudo philosophical view your wrong because then it would only be version 4. 1 was Paradise, 2  was Man's history/hell. 3 introduced Choice and the One which ran through 6 cycles. 4 would be the now and post 6th cycle.

This is irrelevant to figuring what version of the Matrix we are in and you need to decided which way you want to argue. you started by debating a literal change in the numbered version and tried to use hard evidence like Zions Jack-in OS to support you. Now you throwing it all out the window and spouting off supposed "profound" meanings to back you up.

The break down of choice (which was never there to begin with if you actually take note of what Neo means when he says "You were right Smith, you were always right. It was inevitable."SMILEY doesn't mean anything. Control is still very present in the Matrix, it just take a new form. The only break down was the ending to the One cycle (which again proves our points and dismantles your own) But even so the Matrix does not crash. We watch to from Smiths defeat to the end of the film and no crash is seen. There is a rewriting to fix everything that Smith destroyed in it but no literal crash takes place. Nor any reboot. The Matrix is still constantly running.

None of us have claimed to be experts. If agreeing with you is what it takes to be such I'll be the first to say id rather be a bumbling *CENSORED* idiot on the subject, thank you very much. We have all thought it through but not all of us are so keen to be completely ignorant when it comes to key facts and not interpretations.

in debir court.

No Trinity was never set to die. In fact the Oracle explained to Neo that he was the one that would decide her fate. To live or die. If anything she was meant to live because of the door he picked. This isn't even getting into the whole "The mind makes it real" understanding you clearly lack. Trinity never died. In the real her heart was fine and was never pierced by anything, when she did "die" it was her mind being unable to distinguish between what was real and what wasn't anymore. All Neo did was give her RSI a jump start so her brain could wake up again and remember that nothing in the Matrix was real thus she's fine.

The Oracle also already explained Smith and exiles to Neo. She tells him that programs sometimes choose exile over deletion for their own reasons. Smith did just this. He was driven by his desire to kill Neo which disallowed him to return to the source. The fact that no other Agent had ever done so is irelivent. it only shows that the Oracle has something in motion and Smith was apart of it.

Neo's blindness is also irrelevant. How exactly does his condition in the real (something that only has 1 version) pertain to the Matrix version? All it shows us is again something is happening that hasn't happened before. Neo has tapped further into his powers then any other "One". The Oracle even explained that to him by telling him the power of the One reaches beyond the Matrix.

The revealing of the "truth" and how everything was a lie is just as irrelevant to bring about another version. The only part it plays is in the end game and that now Neo knows exactly whats going on and how complicated the situation really is. In fact the truth only puts him further into the Oracle's grasp and gives him more of a reason to go along with her.

Smith's control just shows how great his power has become. Like Neo he has tapped further into the power one can achieve within the Matrix. That and that now version six is under his command now and no longer under the Machines. But no reset, crash, or reboot has occurred. Smith has done nothing more then redesign and rewrite.

Neo going to the Machine city is once again irrelevant to the version number. All it does is show us he's going along with the Oracle's plan. That something new is happening but it isn't changing the system or the Matrix.

Lastly the Matrix IS NOT rebooted. It is rewritten. To reboot a computer you have to shut it down. No where do I see the screen going black and the system restarting. What we see is more consistent with what we see in the first film. The Machines overwriting the code. In this case it was massive sense Smith's rewrite was just as massive but there still is no reboot.

This all being done for the first time is pointless. it just shows us that the cycle was broken and as a said before if anything this a version 4. But even then that isn't right sense the only thing that has changed is the cycle is no longer available. The choice for bluepills still remains. The needs to monitor them is still there. In fact nothing has changed at all except that Neo destroyed the cycle. The reasons for the cycles creation though are still very much present within the Matrix.

Oh yeah and there is only one scene with debir in it, and it ain't where any of this happened. The Battle between Smith and Neo was in downtown. In fact they come crashing down on the very phone booth the first film ends at. Then the meeting between the oracle and Architect happens in a park. Not the middle of a ghetto.

As pointed out above your reasoning for this not being version 6 is all but wrong. It is still very much version 6 and even the most cynical players about the game and its story will all agree that we are still in version six at the end of the film.

Those that say the game isn't canon though are very much mistaken and only say so because it doesn't live up to their expectations of what the game would bring (most actually are just peeved that their theory was smashed to bits by the game) Also the Brothers did approve it all. They handed the Matrix saga over to Paul Chadwick. From that point on it was his baby to do with whatever he wanted. While he did remain loyal to them and got their advice on certain aspects it was still very much his to do whatever with. Once he had had enough he handed it off to Rarebit. While some may come on and say that this nullifies MxO from the Matrix canon it doesn't until the W bros come on and say so. We have been left with them saying that it was Paul's to do with and that was the last we heard. Anything else is only speculation and personal disagreement with the direction the story has taken.

Back it up. So far all you have is a trail of completely wrong and debunked theories. Until you show some credible evidence that isn't filled with your own interpretation you haven't proven anything. Nothing in the last film indicates that it DID reboot. As I said the burden of proof states that you have to prove your claim that something does exist not that we have to prove it doesn't. All the proof we showed with the architect does hold water. It is never refuted, never contradicted. The move ends leaving us to believe he was right about all he said. In fact (and this may come as a shock) the last two films were filmed together. They are two parts of a whole story. The revelation of control doesn't disprove anything at all. In fact its what revealed that Neo was just control meaning that in order for your theory to even be considered as right our facts would have to have been true!

#36300476956 07/10/2008 20:05:31 Re:what iz the matrix?
Also there's this:

Architect:

  • Greetings, humans.

  • I am the Architect. I created the Matrix.

  • You are undoubtedly confounded by my decision to establish this communication.

  • Do not let this perplexity divert you from following the instructions I am about to reveal.

  • Since the aborted reinsertion of the prime program, there have been an objectionable quantity of anomalies.

  • Even after accounting for the fluctuations due to human rejection of the simulation, there remains an unaccounted for and increasingly high number of these anomalies.

  • This is, of course, unacceptable - and great pains have been taken to rectify the condition.

  • Despite the historical efficacy of these procedures, the current anomalies do not correspond with our existing indexing methodologies and resist being quarantined.

  • I have therefore made a rather abhorrent and altogether regrettable decision.

  • Specifically, I am seeking your help.

  • The anomalies in question seem to bear a more than superficial resemblance to the integral anomaly.

  • To be more explicit, they share qualities with aspects of the one you call Neo.

  • Why this should be so is irrelevant. What matters is that you assist in revealing the meaning of these anomalies.

  • Although it is with great disinclination that I reveal this information, I believe that it may assist your impulsive and disorderly thought processes.

  • Upon supplementary analysis of the anomalies, the following error was returned, ad nauseam.

  • "?????"

  • I genuinely doubt that you will present us with data of any consequence; however, alternative contingencies have been all but exhausted.

  • It is improbable that we will speak again.
That is from the Live Events Team that used to play major character roles from the movies, whom took their cues directly from Chadwick.  Also here's the link: http://www.mxoarchive.net/archives/...teriousSpeeches

EDIT:  Also since you wouldn't see Reloaded as proof this speech takes place AFTER revolutions in MxO.

Gami and I are usually on opposite sides when debating story etc... but his posted response was right on the money which is why I continue to hold him in high respect. Nice snippet of information from Trayden as well.

What I don't like, and is really the main reason why I continue to post in this proposterous thread, is a hypocrite. You had a go at ChloeAnn in a different thread claiming that she presented her opinions as fact, yet you have done and continue to do the same.

I have no issue with differing opinions, believe what you want to believe. Just dont try to claim and convince others, who may not be up to speed on the story, that you and you alone are correct when you cannot, and for the most part, will not try to disprove what most people are trying to convey with reasonable and logical evidence. You seem to be unwilling to take into account all factors and show that you pick and chose bits of storyline and/or visuals to use to augment your opinions and try to present them as fact.

#36300476981 07/10/2008 20:58:49 Re:what iz the matrix?

u guys would argue with the brothers about it if they said themselves that it was version 7.

lol

even if they told u that it was their intention to throw LOGIK and REASONING out the window when it came to what happened in the third film.

it is obvious that the pattern disintergrated, nothing happened the way it was supposed to.

they dont talk about it because its their firm belief that we have to make up our own *CENSORED* mind what it is that we are seeing.

everyone is going to see what they see based on their own experience and what they find more comfortable dealing with.

all i can say is i dont see things the way u do; i see them very differently. what i saw is much deeper than anything that has been said

logik and reasoning are not the tools that i use to interpret the films, it is too deep for that.

the second u think that u know everything about the films, u can watch them again and u pik up something else.

here is how i interpret the flims....

the matrix films are not even films to me; they are an awakening experience full of next level ideas

what we saw was the sixth version of the matrix and that has bibical significance.

this version called mxo is the seventh version and that has bibical significance.

it has nothing to do with any logik or reason, it is that, because that is how it is

 we see 6 and we experience 7. nothing in the movies have i seen the way u guys do, it doesnt matter if neo went back to the source or didnt ; that is just it. u see that it is based on some kind of order u find in the movie, but what u dismiss is the direction that the brothers were heading was throwing out order. things happened.

i saw the matrix change, that change was the ending of the 6th version and the beginning of the seventh. it wasnt black/white like u want it to be. it was equilevent to a spiritual movement., an evolution!

this is the seventh version of the matrix because that is the end of creation, end of the matrix.

patch notes confirmed that for me when i jacked into the matirx for the first time, 3 days after it went live.

thats all the proof i need, u guys can argue about it more if u like; but ur only going to come off  like tank in the first film when he was talking to neo when he was trying to do something impossible : P

im going to rest now, this dialogue as exceeded it's boundaries, please refrain from acting like children because there is truly something to be learned from this, all u have to do is look past ur preconceptions and dig deeper.

If the brothers came out and said it I would wonder how exactly they intended to explain it but I am certain it would be nothing like what you have suggested. Logic and reason are not thrown out the window. In fact the sequels depend heavily on those two key pieces. If anything the brothers threw out everything but those two things, as we are revealed that Neo is jut a man, the Oracle is just a program, Morpheus is just a religious fanatic and there is nothing divine or superstition going on at all. It's all just a battle of the minds played by the Oracle and Architect.

they dont talk about it because its their firm belief that we have to make up our own *CENSORED* mind what it is that we are seeing.

everyone is going to see what they see based on their own experience and what they find more comfortable dealing with

all i can say is i dont see things the way u do; i see them very differently. what i saw is much deeper than anything that u said.

logik and reasoning is not the tools that i use to interpret the films, it is too deep for that.

I would have agreed with you there that it was up to us to make up our own minds but that was until MxO's conception. Because of MxO's existences those that want to continue to follow the canon of the story are no longer allowed to keep their Pluralistic views on the ending of the story as MxO being the official continuation is now the only idea that matters. If you want to ignore the game then fine but do realize that you are trying to fight the official canon and your ultimately going o loose no matter how much you argue your point. That said they don't talk about the film because it isn't run by them anymore. They are done with the Matrix universe and have gone on to make other movies. Rarebit is now the only one with any say we will ever hear about until the W bros decided they want to come back and start writing again for it.

How you or anyone else sees it is irrelevant. It is not fact. The only facts are whatever The trilogy, the Animatrix, and MxO tells us and they have all but dis-proven your idea. You could find the meaning of life in the Matrix but that doesn't mean it was the intended understanding. And when the story itself contradicts everything you say, from the stories perspective you are wrong. End of story.

the second u think that u know everything about the films, u can watch them again and u pik up something else.

here is how i interpret the flims....

what we saw was the sixth version of the matrix. that has bibical significance;

this version called mxo is the seventh version. that has bibical significance

it has nothing to do with any logik or reason, it is that, because that is how it is

The versions of the Matrix versions are not a symbol for the number of days God created the world in. Because first off they end at six and we don't see the sun rise on the seventh day via reboot/restart. Second The Architect has nothing to do with bringing about what you call the seventh version. That's the Oracle. Last time I read Genesis it doesn't mention a Fortune teller having God rest.  Also the Architect isn't resting. In fact he is still hard at work. As I said before all neo did was end the cycle but he didn't change why the cycle was needed or any of the other problems within the Matrix. The cycle in fact has nothing to do with the seventh version so unless you are sayign the Cyle is God then your supposed symbol is meaningless. As it doesn't git the bill of what your trying to link it to.

While yes Christian themes can be found throughout the series you would actually be very surprised to find that buddhist themes are more common. Try linking it something in Buddhism and you might be onto something but the Christian themes all but stopped the moment Neo rose from the dead in the first film. Reloaded does nothing but diminish that idea of him being a cyberpunk Jesus. unlike Jesus Neo doesnt know what his mission is. He is selfish and his love for Trinity is only what inspires him. he is revealed to just be a man and is nothing but another form of control.

it has nothing to do with the story, where or not neo went back to the source; that is just it. u see that it is based on some kind of order u find in the movie, but what u dismiss is the direction that the brothers were heading was throwing out order.

this is the seventh version of the matrix because that is the end of creation, end of the matrix.

i believe that with my soul, the whole trilogy is full of religious lore from names, to hints, to full blown philosophies. that is the reason why i feel that i am right and u guys are wrong but u know, if it is one thing ive learned, neither of us are right and neither one of us are wrong. the oracle hit me with that too! : P

And yes it has everything to do with eh story. No writer or film maker just throws in biblical symbolism for no reason. They always relate there symbols both to the story and to whatever they are symbolising and they are always key parts of the story. This isn't just some random nod to the biblical account for creation it has everything to do with the story and the history of the Matrix. Your comparison is nothing but forced coincidence. The numbers aren't right, there is no distinction between eh sixth and seventh day. The Architect isn't resting. Their is no oracle working behind the scenes bringing in the seventh day.

Believe with your soul believe with your left toe I don't care it doesnt make it any more right. The trilogy does hint at a lot but it is always backed with enough information that you are able to see what the deeper message is in the symbol but also in thr story but never do they contradict. Just because there are symbols in the movie doesnt mean this one you think you found is one.

u guys should watch the movies one more time and try to understand that what is really going on is where or not u really feel that logik and reason is just illusions. thats what the brothers are saying.

im going to rest now, this dialogue as exceeded it's boundaries, please refrain from acting like children because there is truly something to be learned from this, all u have to do is looked past ur preconceptions and dig deeper.

I've seen them enough times to grasp the bigger picture you are apparently incapable of seeing. Logic and reason are all there is. The Brothers if anything push that then anything else. They don't allow for spiritual, supernatural, superstition bull crap to run the movie, they come close oh yes they come very close and many of their symbols do have influences in theology, religion, philosophy etc but always they twist it on you and show you in the end it wasn't anything that could not be explained by reason and logic. It wasn't anything spiritual, wasn't anything supernatural, it was all within the capabilities of a human being to do.

A collective intelligence which openly looks into all theories and compare it to evidence presented is more likely to get to the truth than a single person who will not accept evidence.

another cult fairly recently did the same thing when they saw hale bopp comet in the night sky.

in a group conciousness, riots begin, wars start, and this thread is a perfect example, all of u have completely forgot what this post was origiially about.

it was a bunch of people together that is responsible for killing christ.

i never heard of a group of people spontaneously comeup with a ala theory of relativity.

 A collective intelligence which openly looks into all theories and compare it to evidence presented is more likely to get to the truth than a single person who will not accept evidence.

it is 2 dimensional thinking to consider that since neo did not go back to source, the matrix could not be re-booted. and it is 2 diminsional to believe that the version of the matrix we saw in revolutions did not crash and have to be rebooted to another version.


No its called useing LOGIC and REASON. Logic dictates that because Neo never reached the source the cycle was not continued sense that was the only way to bring about a new cycle. 

wrong answer; who told u that?the movies never say that, that is something u tend to believe

 And sense the number of cycles is the measure we judge what version of the Matrix we are in, you are clearly wrong in saying we are in version 7. Even for a pseudo philosophical view your wrong because then it would only be version 4. 1 was Paradise, 2  was Man's history/hell. 3 introduced Choice and the One which ran through 6 cycles. 4 would be the now and post 6th cycle.

wrong answer again, someone is roll playing too much. there was dialogue mentioning the first matrix as being paradise where no one suffered, it was clearly a christian reference to the garden of eden. but as far as the films are concerned, there is no dialogue that confirms anything about mans history/hell. or the 3rd one introducing choice. ummm so im going comeplety disregard any of that,

that control failed!

This is irrelevant to figuring what version of the Matrix we are in and you need to decided which way you want to argue. you started by debating a literal change in the numbered version and tried to use hard evidence like Zions Jack-in OS to support you. Now you throwing it all out the window and spouting off supposed "profound" meanings to back you up.

The break down of choice (which was never there to begin with if you actually take note of what Neo means when he says "You were right Smith, you were always right.

I belive him.

#36300477146 07/11/2008 08:50:51 Re:what iz the matrix?

The architect clearly says that following the failure of the first Matrix, the paradise, that the Matrix was "redesigned it based on your history to more accurately reflect the varying grotesqueries of your nature." He then goes on to say that he was again hit by failure. This the second Matrix, the history/hell one. And that's straight from the movie, homes. So no, it's not "roll play" (though I do like to do barrel rolls - good times) that's given fact.

And for someone who criticizes everyone else for not accepting "what's in front of u" you certainly do a good deal of the same. For example, you assume that the Matrix would have crashed due to the Smiths, and seem to completely ignore the fact that it was still active up to and during the point that Neo sacrificed himself to purify the virus. Since it would be removed at that point, and stability would be on a turn for the better, what gives you the impression that it crashed thereafter and was restarted? All you've said is that "everything is different," which is completely untrue. Nothing changed after that, spare that Sati made a pretty little sunrise, Neo died, and after his virtual penicillin went through Smith, everybody could go about their hum-drum connected-to-the-pods lives. Or, to phrase it better, the status quo was restored (that means everything went back to normal).

As for there being no new cycle due to Neo not returning to the source, this has been confirmed in Agent Gray's dialogue in Chapter 8.1.1, I believe, where he tells Machinists that due to the fact that due to Neo's sacrifice, it may no longer be necessary to restart a cycle of the One, as the remainder explained by the Architect in his speech in Reloaded has been accounted for.

"Logic" is spelled with a "c," by the way, and no matter how many times you spell it with a "k," it still has about as much a probability of catching on as your unfounded and, quite frankly, mentally-challenged views of plot structure, storyline, analysis, and synthesis. Do not pursue an english major following high school.

I am leaning toward believing that Siren, in a bid to make a name for himself, is trying to reach the heady heights of nnn2's legendary status. There have been a myriad of people attempting to explain but overwhelming pigheadedness must win. 'I think I'm right therefore I must be'.

You're quite right, Ky there is little point in bothering to debate further, although stopping would no doubt be proof to Siren that he is right about everything, lol! But yeah, I've really had my fill on his ignorance and hypocracy, let alone his abuse of the English language.

Dude just stop. Go actually read some of the replies because everyone of them has already answered this question. In reloaded the Architect explains it clearly. That the next cycle, the next version, the next Zion, and the next Matrix, would be started once Neo went to the source. Now because Neo didn't do that none of the above happened. You  want to say there is some other way to start up a new version of the Matrix, show me. Show me how, show me where, some me why. Until you do we are left with what we have. The burden of proof is on you to prove your claims. Not on us to disprove them.

 And sense the number of cycles is the measure we judge what version of the Matrix we are in, you are clearly wrong in saying we are in version 7. Even for a pseudo philosophical view your wrong because then it would only be version 4. 1 was Paradise, 2  was Man's history/hell. 3 introduced Choice and the One which ran through 6 cycles. 4 would be the now and post 6th cycle.

Sorry this rp sux'd long ago and Ive already been invited back. The fact that we have a paradise as version 1 does not make it a christian theme. In fact every religion in the world describes paradise that way. Also this then goes against your own supposed evidence. I don't recall Eden being created on day 1. Day five actually. OMG DOEZ DIS MEAN V.1 WAZ THE 5TH VERZION!???!??!?!

And uh yeah actually there is dialogue in the films. "The first Matrix I designed was quite naturally perfect, it was a work of art - flawless, sublime. A triumph equalled only by its monumental failure. The inevitability of its doom is apparent to me now as a consequence of the imperfection inherent in every human being. Thus, I redesigned it based on your history to more accurately reflect the varying grotesqueries of your nature." There I made it big so you can read it better and even underlined the point. So try again.

But lets continue that little quote there and move on to proving Matrix 3.0 was the intro to choice  "However, I was again frustrated by failure. I have since come to understand that the answer eluded me because it required a lesser mind, or perhaps a mind less bound by the parameters of perfection. Thus the answer was stumbled upon by another - an intuitive program, initially created to investigate certain aspects of the human psyche. If I am the father of the matrix, she would undoubtedly be its mother." "she stumbled upon a solution whereby nearly 99% of all test subjects accepted the program, as long as they were given a choice, even if they were only aware of the choice at a near unconscious level." Case closed gg son. Matrix 3.0 was the introduction of choice.

This is irrelevant to figuring what version of the Matrix we are in and you need to decided which way you want to argue. you started by debating a literal change in the numbered version and tried to use hard evidence like Zions Jack-in OS to support you. Now you throwing it all out the window and spouting off supposed "profound" meanings to back you up.

The break down of choice (which was never there to begin with if you actually take note of what Neo means when he says "You were right Smith, you were always right. It was inevitable."SMILEY<img src=" width="15" height="15"> doesn't mean anything. Control is still very present in the Matrix, it just take a new form. The only break down was the ending to the One cycle (which again proves our points and dismantles your own) But even so the Matrix does not crash. We watch to from Smiths defeat to the end of the film and no crash is seen. There is a rewriting to fix everything that Smith destroyed in it but no literal crash takes place. Nor any reboot. The Matrix is still constantly running.

the crash was the matrix being occupyed by smiths. u dont actually think a crash has to do with a loss of power do u? the crash is what u see right in front of u but are just too blind to see it.

No a crash is when a program, computer, mainframe, or simulation, stops working completely. The Matrix is very much up and running. It's amusing that now your trying to twist definitions to support your idiotic interpretation.

open ur eyes!

the entire simulation was taken over by smith. u are staring at the crash and it doesnt even register. such 2 dimensional thinking. smith was everywhere, the architect had lost control of the simulation in ever aspect.

come on, think it through; everyone in the sim was infected with the smith.

why do u think that after the conversation with the architect that there was fire when he closed the door, and neo had to fly out?

because smith had gotton thru the door made of light and it triggered the bomb

yes the matrix is constantly running, this is true but dont think for a second that it is in machine control

Machine control is irrelevant to the stability of the simulation. All it means is they are no longer deciding whats best for the simulation. Smith being everyone and running it is just as irrelevant but one could argue that the fact Smith can run the simulations just proves that it is still working.

That last part, that's hilarious. Its clearly Neo setting of the bomb when he comes bursting through. And Smith is no where to be found. There was only one door to reach that floor and that's the one Neo, Morpheus, and the Keymaker went through. Since the keymaker had the only key that floor then became impossible to enter via the hallways. The keymaker also explained that there would only be a short window in which they could get onto that floor and that during that time Neo would have to open the door. Otherwise one single alarm going off would blow the whole place apart. Neo trips and alarm when he reenters the Matrix because the power is now back on in full and all the alarms are operational.

No Trinity was never set to die.

Architect said that she is going to die and there is nothing u can do to stop it 

And the Architect is the supposed authority on human analyzation and predictions? Sorry bud the oracle disagrees and explained that the Architect can't see past anything. Its all numbers to him and if anything he was counting on the odds being against Neo in saving her. He's not making predictions or telling the future.

In fact the Oracle explained to Neo that he was the one that would decide her fate. To live or die. If anything she was meant to live because of the door he picked. This isn't even getting into the whole "The mind makes it real" understanding you clearly lack. Trinity never died. In the real her heart was fine and was never pierced by anything, when she did "die" it was her mind being unable to distinguish between what was real and what wasn't anymore. All Neo did was give her RSI a jump start so her brain could wake up again and remember that nothing in the Matrix was real thus she's fine.

The Oracle also already explained Smith and exiles to Neo. She tells him that programs sometimes choose exile over deletion for their own reasons. Smith did just this. He was driven by his desire to kill Neo which disallowed him to return to the source. The fact that no other Agent had ever done so is irrelevant. it only shows that the Oracle has something in motion and Smith was apart of it.

Neo's blindness is also irrelevant. How exactly does his condition in the real (something that only has 1 version) pertain to the Matrix version? All it shows us is again something is happening that hasn't happened before. Neo has tapped further into his powers then any other "One". The Oracle even explained that to him by telling him the power of the One reaches beyond the Matrix.

this throws logik and reason out the window. how can a man see when he has no eyes?it is a signal to the viewer, the audience memeber to let go of all ur preconceptions, there is no science that can explain what is going on now.

this is beyond powers, this is neo connecting to the source in a way the architect cannot understand. he is seeing his enviroment and its like the whole thing is made of light!  it is, everything is energy! that is some next level science for those of u are rushing to catch up now,

Again the Oracle explained that and without any pseudo religious dogma. She tells us that Neo's power extends beyond the Matrix. She doesn't describe them but just informs Neo that he is capable of such feats. He then discovers he is able to feel and see the machine's energy of a connection he has with the machines and the code he carries in being "The One". His powers came only because he touched the source and from that point on he recognizes it and is able to manipulate it. Its just like a wifi connection. Neo now has a direct connection to the Machine mainframe and his brain and body are capable of processing Machine energy because of his connection.

The revealing of the "truth" and how everything was a lie is just as irrelevant to bring about another version

 The only part it plays is in the end game and that now Neo knows exactly whats going on and how complicated the situation really is. In fact the truth only puts him further into the Oracle's grasp and gives him more of a reason to go along with her.

Smith's control just shows how great his power has become. Like Neo he has tapped further into the power one can achieve within the Matrix. That and that now version six is under his command now and no longer under the Machines. But no reset, crash, or reboot has occurred. Smith has done nothing more then redesign and rewrite.

2 dimensional thinking again : (

Prove it wrong and will talk. What couldn't think of any spiritual mumbo jumbo to retort it with?

Neo going to the Machine city is once again irrelevant to the version number. All it does is show us he's going along with the Oracle's plan. That something new is happening but it isn't changing the system or the Matrix.

Lastly the Matrix IS NOT rebooted. It is rewritten. To reboot a computer you have to shut it down. No where do I see the screen going black and the system restarting. What we see is more consistent with what we see in the first film. The Machines overwriting the code. In this case it was massive sense Smith's rewrite was just as massive but there still is no reboot.

This all being done for the first time is pointless. it just shows us that the cycle was broken and as a said before if anything this a version 4. But even then that isn't right sense the only thing that has changed is the cycle is no longer available. The choice for bluepills still remains. The needs to monitor them is still there. In fact nothing has changed at all except that Neo destroyed the cycle. The reasons for the cycles creation though are still very much present within the Matrix.

Oh yeah and there is only one scene with debir in it, and it ain't where any of this happened. The Battle between Smith and Neo was in downtown. In fact they come crashing down on the very phone booth the first film ends at. Then the meeting between the oracle and Architect happens in a park. Not the middle of a ghetto.

As pointed out above your reasoning for this not being version 6 is all but wrong. It is still very much version 6 and even the most cynical players about the game and its story will all agree that we are still in version six at the end of the film.

u said urself that the simulation was rewritten which tell me that u actually see what it is i am talking about. the problem lies in what exactly does it mean that u are seeing. i will tell u

rewritten, is that the word u want to use? ok fine, verison seven was written on top of version 6. its not the same matrix. there are more than 1000 reasons that are all around u. stop being so dense, please.

Rewritten. That means its still the same old Matrix just everything that went wrong is now fixed. Your computer doens't get a new OS or an upgrade once you fix a virus does it? Why should the Matrix? There was nothing written over it. If anything Smith wrote it all over and what you see is the Archeict hitting the delete key to everythign he wrote. If you realyl want to say there was a version seven. its Smiths take over. but that gets wiped clean and "downgraded back to version 6 once he is gone. If there are so many reasons show them. So far everything you have thrown at us can be easily explained by rational thinking and was already explained by eithe rthe Archiect or the Oracle..

No its called useing LOGIC and REASON. Logic dictates that because Neo never reached the source the cycle was not continued sense that was the only way to bring about a new cycle. 

wrong answer; who told u that?the movies never say that, that is something u tend to believe

Dude just stop. Go actually read some of the replies because everyone of them has already answered this question. In reloaded the Architect explains it clearly. That the next cycle, the next version, the next Zion, and the next Matrix, would be started once Neo went to the source. Now because Neo didn't do that none of the above happened. You  want to say there is some other way to start up a new version of the Matrix, show me. Show me how, show me where, some me why. Until you do we are left with what we have. The burden of proof is on you to prove your claims. Not on us to disprove them.

 And sense the number of cycles is the measure we judge what version of the Matrix we are in, you are clearly wrong in saying we are in version 7. Even for a pseudo philosophical view your wrong because then it would only be version 4. 1 was Paradise, 2  was Man's history/hell. 3 introduced Choice and the One which ran through 6 cycles. 4 would be the now and post 6th cycle.

wrong answer again, someone is roll playing too much. there was dialogue mentioning the first matrix as being paradise where no one suffered, it was clearly a christian reference to the garden of eden. but as far as the films are concerned, there is no dialogue that confirms anything about mans history/hell. or the 3rd one introducing choice. ummm so im going comeplety disregard any of that,

Sorry this rp sux'd long ago and Ive already been invited back. The fact that we have a paradise as version 1 does not make it a christian theme. In fact every religion in the world describes paradise that way. Also this then goes against your own supposed evidence. I don't recall Eden being created on day 1. Day five actually. OMG DOEZ DIS MEAN V.1 WAZ THE 5TH VERZION!???!??!?!

And uh yeah actually there is dialogue in the films. "The first Matrix I designed was quite naturally perfect, it was a work of art - flawless, sublime. A triumph equalled only by its monumental failure. The inevitability of its doom is apparent to me now as a consequence of the imperfection inherent in every human being. Thus, I redesigned it based on your history to more accurately reflect the varying grotesqueries of your nature." There I made it big so you can read it better and even underlined the point. So try again.

But lets continue that little quote there and move on to proving Matrix 3.0 was the intro to choice  "However, I was again frustrated by failure. I have since come to understand that the answer eluded me because it required a lesser mind, or perhaps a mind less bound by the parameters of perfection.

Actually Gami I have to say the paradise Matrix was an Eden reference, hence we get the Seraphim as the "agents" of the first simulation. Only three religions have angels in the traditional sense, and that's Christianity, Islam, and Judaism.

But, back on topic, THIS IZ NOT MATRICKS 7!
