ZombiewoodProduction Is Neo's baddass hacker skills a possible reason why Morpheus believed he is " the One".... And all the baddassery he eventually does.

yea tho more than half of the questions here are easy to answer. There are some real mistakes in the movie but the video made me think that whoever did it must be either stupid or knowingly ignored bunch of stuff to be able to grow the list. For example, if this whole thing is a program then it means you can disturb it hack it or something to stop agents watching exactly where he is (maybe temporarily maybe sometimes easier sometimes harder since both sides are developing further nonstop ) while you are still able to track and tell him where to turn. Can't be bothered to go through all but seriously most of the video is plain bullshit..

Did you love the _remake_ called *Matrix 4*

@@PhillyDjHook I...did very much not. It's just not got any of the elements I loved about the originals. The fights are awful, slow, tightly shot. The plot is bollocks really. I dislike any kind of pretentious meta-commentary in films as it is and the meta stuff in this film didn't change my mind. I understand why it's so unlike the previous films though: Lana Wachowski has changed hugely since she made the first film. Not just changed gender but grown up; the things that excite her aren't kung fu battles and comic books anymore. So she made a completely different film, that's a lot more like Sense8 and Cloud Atlas. A lot more concerned with philosophical questions, and a lot less concerned with visual flair and a strong narrative arc. So I can't blame her for making a different film from the original Matrices. She's changed. And they were going to do it with or without her, which is pretty outrageous. And the film itself, if you judge it purely as a sci-fi film with no associations to the Matrix, is not bad. It's quite good and has some quite clever ideas. But part of me would almost rather they HAD actually taken the Matrix away from Lana and allowed someone like Denis Villeneuve or even Chad Stahelski to make their own Matrix movie. For one thing, Keanu is too old. Simple as that. He can just about get away with it in John Wick, because it's mainly just tight hand to hand stuff or shooting, but in the Matrix, where he has to fly and flip, and all that stuff...he just can't do it anymore. The Matrix is perfect material for a reboot anyway. It's written into the structure of the narrative. Maybe someone else, a long time from now, will succeed at recreating at least some of the magic of the original, but no-one will ever capture all of it. It's a one-off for a lot of reasons. And Resurrections didn't even try.

CinemaSins doesnt look at the movies as movies. Some things are not sins, because if you would show them "normally" viewers wouldn't understand what the fuck is going on (for example the agents talking about the search). But CinemaSins wants to be entertaining so he is a dick to movies :))

Cyclops Was Right OMG!?! I’ve watched this movie a billion times and a KZfaq comment is what opens my eyes to that?!?! I quit. I suck at braining.

Cyclops Was Right Actually “Neo” means “New” as in the new man meaning Born again.. More of the Christ/Christian symbolism.

Neo is an anagram of one, that's what he meant.

Bruce Jefferies Right, because after witnessing all that weird-ass agent shit, having his mouth "glued" shut and being bugged by a weird insect thingy (haha, get it, it's literally a bug!), Neo would need more proof.

That’s like me giving you LSD and saying please explain the deep intricate feeling you experienced when realizing you are one and complete with the universe... sorry you can’t do it because I’d have to feel it for myself. Nub

They cant be told while still inside the matrix bc it can effect them to cause them to reject in bad ways

Yes, just verbally explain that your most core beliefs about the nature of existence are all wrong.... Yeah, sure. He'll understand. That will suffice. Or not. He would automatically reject it even with all the proof in the world. This is how human nature works. But if he can experience it for himself, he can be pulled through those stages of denial quickly and learn to accept it.

I know, it's such a stupid non-sin as well... the very fact that they had to go back into the Matrix to meet her meant that she HAD to be an AI (or some kind of special "self-aware" human still in one of the pods). It's literally self-explanatory.... sheesh

If you read the original script, they cut it out but Cypher’s job on the ship is to code most of the “jack in & out of the matrix” shit and the programs. He’s like the IT guy of the matrix interface.

greenghost2008 I tell this to people all the time. There is no "real world". Everything, including Zion, is inside the Matrix. It's the only way to explain every single inconsistency in the movies. Why they need old style phones to escape the Matrix. Why the Agents can't instantly tell where to find people. Why Neo can control the Sentinels outside the Matrix. Why Smith can enter the "real world". How they're able to rebuild the Matrix (6 times) without anyone in Zion remembering it. etc. etc.

D3MoNyX According to who? The Architect. Yet none of the "real people" have any memory of this? It's all happening inside the Matrix.

It's not lol

@connextro the only dumbass here is you. Go find something to do in your life

Its great with the scifi elements and philosophy but crap when it comes to common sense. Real bullshit.

That's a really good explanation. I thought the same thing about the spider thing that disconnects Neo. It's just a dumb robot that crawls around the pods. There still are some unanswered questions about getting/hacking into and out of the Matrix that still don't make sense to me but it's not enough that it bothered me when I first watched it. I guess they basically have to get a disconnect signal via the dial tone or similar phone or speaker device, so it's a special version of the process by which Neo and the rest escaped the Matrix in the first place.

Dude this - people overthink plot holes but no one ever thinks about plot fillers!!!!

The 8110 (1996) was properly replaced by 8210 (1999) and 8310 (2001) but the 8810 (1998) and 8850 (1999) and 8890 (2002) came out alongside that sequence. Their sequence is a bit crazy

Isnt Neo a program too?

MariMarch​​ Nope. Neo is an anomaly. He is a problem that occurs in every single version of the matrix however the Architect was always able to stop him until now when the Oracle went on Neo's side. But coming back to your question, no Neo is not a program as he is able to visit both the Matrix and the Machine world whereas a program like Smith or The Oracle can't. I hope that helped ;)

***** Not true. That's just a theory. Smith was a corrupted program which was an anomaly in the Matrix just like Neo. He wanted to destroy the world. The prophecy speaks of The One creating peace. The One is Neo as he sacrificed himself for everyone else to live in peace. If Neo didn't make a deal with the Leader of the machines. Peace would never come. Peace was created when Smith was deleted which allowed the Matrix to reload. Therefore Neo is the one. However I can admit that Smith and Neo are like Ying and Yang. Smith is the opposite of Neo.

Yeah, if you ignore the plot hole in that scene. while trinity said that cheesy line, she gave the agent more than enough time to dodge, but of course he didn’t.

@@hiigghhggg9150 Yeah but The Matrix, like all Wacho movies, is about style over substance. This entire movie is a plot hole

jim Good point.

Also she points the gun at the agent while standing at the side of him, he turns his head yet somehow is completely facing her when she fires.

also if you listen closely when she pulls the trigger you can hear the obvious dry-fire click of the firing pin in an empty gun.

But.. why? The agents are programs right? Can't the computers just make as many as they want?

hedrack08 That, i cannot answer. Even in the sequel when the agents are replaced there is still only 3. Untill smith starts copying himself of course.

Daniel Astbury There are only three that are seen in the films. If you read the comics and play Enter The Matrix you will see there are more.

Sigmund Stormblade Ah I see, I've only watched the films.

hedrack08 Sup bro. Thought i would chime in here. My assumption(keep in mind we are dealing with thinking, self aware computers) is that the number of agents in any given location must be directly porportional to the number of estimated "red pills" within the matrix at any given time. remember that 1:they are computers so they only do things logically and based on formuals and computations as well as advanced probablility and outcome scenarios. and 2: as stated in the last movie, anything and programs the matrix mainframe creates, but have a purpose or it is destroyed.

exactly, and this movie is actually about my life, as a spiritual guru

They did the same this with Spider-Man and Emmet from The Lego Movie... BUT THEY WERE STILL INTERESTING

But...Isn't there a hivemind entity that controls the Matrix and the Agents? Even though there's a step in between, all the omniscient Matrix overlord would have to do is relay it's information to the Agents and *boom*. They have situational awareness and should be able to be a step ahead of Neo and pals.

Dashing Reaver No one has complete control over the matrix. if that were true then the entire movie wouldn't exist. what happens is when someone does something against the will of the machines, they send the agents to take care of the problem. they do relay the information but they aren't these all powerful beings. that's why the machines wanted to stop agent smith in the last matrix. because he became a "virus" that ran wild in the matrix. so although they can tell them where to go and what to do, the agents aren't as powerful as they seem.

Oh. Well then. It's been awhile. You must really like the Matrix.

Dashing Reaver Not really. I just pay a lot of attention to movies before I say there's a plot hole. I've only seen the movie like five times.

Taylor Suarez ONLY 5 times. xD (I'm just kidding, relax)

One of the very rare instances where the synchro beats the original.

+NovaHessia this must be a error in the matrix >^

that's cool thing to know I love it when translators do something clever to improve the original instead of bluntly translating phrase after phrase

"Nobody in their right mind" is the key. That's probably, partially why humans were deemed imperfect.

Mr Anderson is such a obsessive thing to say/hear ikr

Especially in the way Hugo Weaving says it.

I have been dying to meet someone named Anderson so I can say it in a Agent Smith voice.

bigwilly43729 take a trip to Sweden and you will get that chance :D

*clears throat* Gentlemen.

they are machines plugged in the same way as all humans are connected to the matrix. Smith told Morpheus that he wants to get out of the Matrix, because he hated the”smell”. Smith and other agents have always direct connection with the Architect via ear piece. . Agents serve as hardware/software firewall, and anti virus at the same time. When Neo destroys Smith, Smith becomes himself a virus, and disconnects from his machine body in real world.Eventually, it turned out that Smith is the ONE. Not Neo.

Ahmad Baghdadi ok so you watched game theory

Ahmad Baghdadi also “being the one is like being in love”

@@ahmadm1102 No thats wrong. Neo is the one. And "the one" himself is actually part of the matrix. It was designed this way so that the machines could control the humans resistance. The matrix was programmed to give the person that truly believes to be "the one" the ones powers. Thats why when trinity tells neo that she loves him, and that the oracle told her that the man she loves is "the one", and therefor neo HAS to be "the one" he gains his powers. Because the moment neo believes, is when the matrix makes him into "the one". And the person that is going to believe to be "the one" is and has always been (in previous versions of the matrix) the person the oracle tells someone is "the one". So the matrix itself controls who is going to be "the one" via the oracle, and after all the oracle is PART OF THE MATRIX.

Exactly, they are processes of the program to act in the particular artificial reality as tools of law, which is anology you know...

Eric Mays Humorous nitpicking. Spread the word.

I like the first two films, but the last one's kinda boring.

Cracked has an article describing what I thought was a great reason for the hate: in the first movie, Neo is "the straight man," he's not in on the over-all plot, he's new, and we see everything as new through him. After that, we're just as expert as he is, and can comment and disagree all we want.

That's racist, ding!

Ab Xy 😂😂😂😂 chillll

4:23 creepily smiling black man . lol

it's one of my favourite movies too, but the fact that it needs something like animatrix to explain itself, shows that it's not as perfect as we'd like to think

SomethingScanning or more likely, people just lack imagination and need someone to explain them things. :P In my opinion half of the sins in this video are wrong... matrix after all is a virtual world. All the games ive played - i have learned that depending on how the world is created, things that we take for granted in real life go flying out the window. Matrix was created by an AI, a construct... that virtual world will have flaws because of the AI's own programming etc etc. It is only inevitable, mr Anderson.

"Don't even bring up the sequels when you defend this shit.".

As far as I'm concerned Matrix had no other sequels... other than Animatrix.

DocHollowDay im sorry to blow your mind but there are 2 sequels called Matrix Reloaded and Matrix Revolutions.

I do prefer Reloaded a bit, it's not fantastic, but it solves a lot of problems wiht the first movie. Revolutions... no. Just... no.

***** Part of the reason the sequels were so bad, particularly the third one like you say, is because they were meant to be one film. The original idea was to have a sequel and a prequel, but then someone said "No, make it two sequels." I'm guessing somewhat late in production because instead of writing out new scripts, they stretched the sequel into two movies and incorporated elements of the prequel into the Animatrix anthology film. So if it feels like the sequels are a lot of nonsense and filler, it's because they are.

ramirezthesilvite I actually read that soon after the success of the first movie the creators made a script for two movies. Though I thought the really wanted to stretch the movie either for money, or just because they wanted a trilogy instead of two movies.

plus this is a way shorter bid I assume it's so he can put more content in without it being too long to enjoy maybe also voice mod gives him a bit of anonymity? (just a guess) maybe there are more sins per movie now, bcz he's gotten grumpier over the yrs lol

kool sWooZie showed up

Unfortunately however, there's always the question of whether that's even possible, since there's never any mention of "others" in the movie (which is disappointing). I think the screenwriters were trying to show the fact that Trinity was able to A) Know what was going on with Neo's life-- and B) have a good deal of knowledge of people surrounding Neo. While the idea you mentioned is certainly possible, I think that the screenwriters never intended to allude to "others". WHICH ABSOLUTELY SUCKS. Anyways, nice ta see ya. I'm going to cry in a corner and question why I "logic" myself out of wonderful things.

And also the whole "scorching the sky" thing? It was accomplished by the Humans who filled the sky which nanites in their war against the machines.

they lack mechanisms to determine what work is required and what work is not required, they just dump it all on you and you go figure it out yourself

Companies have always possessed mechanisms to determine if employees are doing actual work, the problem is that two-thirds of all managers are incompetent and let the employees get away with such antics. Back in '97 we had a Regional General Manager call in to say his internet was slow. Upon analyzing the traffic to and from his office, it was discovered that that the bottleneck was him downloading porn (he kept his job). Next month the company promptly introduced mandatory workplace behavior classes and bought firewalls to regulate traffic to and from the company. Programmers sitting there doing something close to nothing is a regular occurrence. I suspect that Cinema Sins has never worked in a programming department before.

They use humans because it makes it eee-vil.

Reloaded wasn't amazing, but I consider it essential to the story. Without it, there is no sensible closure on the whole 'The One' and 'Prophecy' horse shit. Revolutions was a little bit anticlimactic, though. Very cheesy, and it had insufficient follow-up on what happens in the real world AND the matrix after the war ends and Smith is destroyed.

Also, could you quit talking so fast so we can consider what you are saying a little? Fast-talking for the sake of shorter videos seems to me to detract more than a longer video.

dont go there girlfriend

The very first film came out in 1999, and at the time it was groundbreaking. It was immensely popular, and became one of the best science fiction films of all time. The sequels were mediocre. Not bad, but not as good as the first, and I think that alienated the fans. This is how I feel about The Terminator franchise. Once James Cameron left the series after Judgment Day everything after has been complete shit. But anyway I think The Matrix sequels got a lot of crap because they were victims of their own success, meaning that the original was just too good to touch. Fans wanted a movie that would surpass the original and that is very hard to do.

I enjoyed the sequels too tbh *shrugs*

***** Are you crazy? You obviously didn't pay attention at all. All the sequels did was build on the first one. When are people going to realize that you have to think about things and discuss them? People watch a movie one or two times and if you don't understand it, it's stupid. The matrix trilogy cannot be something you watch once or twice to COMPLETELY understand it. It has to be more than that. If you talk to people or think about things, they make more sense. To this day, every time I watch one of them, I learn something new and it makes the trilogy even better. People need to open their mind and stop being so jaded. Hating anything has become a cliche' and I wish it would go away.

The first film is the classic Hero's Journey or Monomyth of Joseph Campbell (look it up if you haven't heard of it,) the same formula of films like Star Wars: A New Hope and had the most universal appeal. The whole metaphor of our mainstream reality being an illusion was the strongest in this one and gets referenced all the time. Reloaded started to have fake CGI looking fights and chases, esoteric philosophy and gnostic symbolism way over a casual viewer's head (The Architect) and at the same time took the "doesn't this look cool" style more seriously over simple character moments and logic and an adventure tone. It also ended awkwardly. Revolutions had the most fake CGI bug stuff and Smith fight, more ambiguous preaching and long sections in Zion away from our heroes, and a Pyrrhic victory with 2 of the 3 heroes dying. I don't think it was just because the first movie was new, I think the storytelling actually got weaker and weirder with each movie.

The Matrix was a very enovating movie for it's year and i love it... but the sequels... oh damn... it just felt like i was going to the church it all became about how Neo was supposed to be a reference of Jesus and all that, i don't to start a religious conversation here but they used it too much... at least is what i think

In all fairness the new Captain America hasn't been out all too long so not many would get the reference, but still a brilliant idea

+TheSenseiNeo Its just called Megacity

+TheSenseiNeo They do speak with American accents, the local populace

That's irrelevant...

+TheSenseiNeo How so? Wouldn't that indicate that they live in America?

+ARC the Clarinet Master There seems to be no mention of any Countries or Cities in the Matrix... at all. It only hints that the entire world is one big city (with some surrounding mountains). People accept this as part of the simulation.

*storm troopers feel triggered*

JcoolV i rewatched it and was pretty disappointed, it seems to really fall apart near the end

@@thad156 i watched for the first time all 3 movies this weekend and was pretty dissapointed on the 3rd film tbh...

Vladimir Hornjak omg I watched the first movie for the first time last night. 😦

The sequels are good if you understand it, it’s really just the beginning of the second one that’s really bad

Im talking solely about the first one, I haven’t seen the other 2 in a while!

Actually, your #1 isn't a sin -- the Wachowskis got a shitload of twins and triplets as extras for that scene, to illustrate that Mouse is a lazy programmer and just copies his code over and over rather than modelling more characters. So... UNDING

I concede. They also could have used the same non-twin extra more than once. ... or they're blowing smoke up our collective ass.
