Hi all! Hope you enjoy the video :) just wanted to correct myself here regarding something I said in the video. This film is directed by The Wachowski Sisters (not Brothers). Sincerest apologies for the error, I was reading off of IMDb and wasn’t aware of who Lana and Lily Wachowski are. Thanks for reading!

Actually at the time, it was directed by the Wachowski Brothers. So no error was made on your part. Nowadays they indeed go through life as the Wachowski Sisters :)

@@jorgetuselli6885 It saddens me to see so many young people brainwashed with the global elites perspective that they are a parasite on the Earth. "Invasive species"? Humanity is part of the carbon cycle which is essential to all life on Earth, we come from the Earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust. We and more importantly our consciousness were self evidently innate in the birth of Universe and each of us has the power to discern right from wrong, to be productive or destructive, to be good or evil and more importantly our consciousness allows us to manipulate and shape the physical and metaphysical world around us through deed and thought. The elite want to reduce us to the lowest common denominator, a biological android that carries out the programming they give you, to be a slave in a mind prison they create and we accept where free will and individuality no longer exists except as delusions carried out within their false paradigm - this is what this movie is really a metaphor for but so few understand it. She needs to take the metaphorical red pill and a step outside the very real Matrix perpetuated and projected by corporate media propaganda which we are living in right now - a criminal world built on lies and deception to maintain their world order and our enslavement.

@@Muckylittleme Did you mean global-ist elites? In any case, that you automatically conflate the expression of one's knowledge that we're an invasive species, which we are by every substantial measure, with some anti-human directive from a nihilstic international cabal working against the common man suggests that you're possessed enough by ideology at this time to regurgitate one of its narratives thoughtlessly, in a seemingly prewritten diatribe. I actually agree with you on a lot of the concerns expressed therein, but it's largely unprovoked. On religiosity, I also agree with your point that one can't choose what one believes; one either believes or one doesn't. Models of broader belief systems aren't entirely unpredictable based on smaller sets of opinions, either, but what's important is how intellectually honest one is, not how alien an opposing opinion feels, or how certain one is, consequently, of one's ability to extrapolate an entire worldview from it. I disagree, also, that employing an unfalsifiable hypothesis as a means to explain the universe when we have no others for comparison, not being content to default to disbelief, is just as logical as the counter position.

Have I got math for you. Assume there's one real world. In that real world, there's.... what, five simulations? (Just a random number. Fill in any number you like) For reasons, in this universe, there's five big computers that run *simulated worlds.* Now, what are the odds you live in the real world? 1 in 6. 1/6 What are the odds you live in one of the simulations? 5/6 Now realize there's probably FAR more simulations, if the 'real' world is even more complex than you can possibly know, and there's obviously more than 5 simulations going on in a whole universe. And then there might be _multiple layers._ The odds we live in a 'real' universe are absurdly low. On some level, we're probably in someone else's box. The Athenian Greeks talked about this. Plato's Cave. Which is why so many people in the Matrix have greco-roman names :D

@@girlsdrinkfeck The directors both debunked the dream within a dream theory back when the original trilogy was made. I think in the new movie, the machines created a simulation specifically for Neo so that he wouldn't suffer or be in pain. I think he's going to play an actor and the original Matrix movie is going to be a movie he started in and it made him famous and wealthy...it's the same life Cipher wanted from the machines in return for Morpheus in the original so it fits. The agent they show at the end is the executive producer of that movie and I think Neo approaches him to do a sequel. That's why he says "you want to go back to where it all started, the Matrix?" He didn't say "in the Matrix"...a movie about a movie is about as meta as they could make part 4. Neo will have to realize he didn't just starr in a movie but that it was actually real. Self discovery over again.

I wish you could have experienced it the way I had back in April of 1999. My friend and I had practically no idea what the movie was about except that the movie poster looked awesome and it had Keanu Reeves in it. The sensation of surrendering to the filmmakers and just letting the narrative take you wherever it was going is something that is missing from the cinematic experience these days. There aren't many films that cause you to look at your reality in a different perspective, but the Matrix was one of them. This, along with Fight Club, were some of the best moviegoing experiences of 1999- a very great year for film.

Ahh the movie poster. Back then, there was something so eye popping and appealing going into a theatre and seeing a poster for an upcoming movie (that was to be released a year later lol). Like, it had a life of its own just there all propped up as you walked in. There was an allure to it. The poster for Sylvester Stallone's 1996 film Daylight had me go "say no more fam, im walking straight into the movie theatre and im gonna sit down and end up watching THIS TERRIBLE FILM!" But hey, the poster was bad ass enough to entice me to sit through it. The HUGE MIB posters with Will Smith and Tommy Lee tho were the best. They always had me anticipating.

13:00 You are correct in your assessment. It was actually this movie and the sequels that got Keanu Reeves deeply involved into the mythos and history of many martial arts, and led to his desire to work harder on each action movie he did to try to portray any combat or fight scene as accurately as possible. The direct result of that passion? The John Wick movies. As to the Matrix, Lawrence Fishburn (Morpheus) and Keanu Reeves were put through a kung fu boot camp that was also part of their strength and conditioning training for the movie. That boot camp was four? five? months long and was literally four hours a day of martial arts. After the boot camp, they started the fight rehearsals, and another interesting thing about the kung fu fight was that they were so good after that boot camp, that instead of things like intentional misses, pulling punches, etc, they were actually REALLY GOING FOR EACH OTHER :O! That's why it looked so good. They had so much trust in each other and knew the moves so well that they were actually trying to hit each other, except for the parts where Keanu's arms needed to be sped up via visual effects at the end of the fight.

Because he stopped the machines at the end and Agent Smith entered Zion, I thought this was proof that Zion was still part of the Matrix. There was really no social media back then so this was all head cannon, and I thought we might discover the true Zion actually existed in a recovered earth. Needless to say, Revolutions made me sad.

We stayed up late to watch it and just after we went to bed at about 1am, I heard my daughter jump out of bed and run out the front door! I ran after her and found her looking up. It was a crystal clear night and the sky was lit up with Northern Lights. In what was a surreal moment, the sky was shimmering with dancing colors. We wrapped ourselves in blankets and stood outside staring at the lights until 4am when we finally went inside for hot chocolate and sleep. It was an incredible experience to have right after seeing The Matrix!

The most interesting part about it is that back in those days when they were still men, they paid very close attention to not show up in public. They wouldn't give any interviews, they wouldn't be seen in making-of videos. They were very particular about it. No one, except for the people who worked with them, knew how they looked like. And in hindsight, I think that is related to the fact that they were having proplems with their gender identity and didn't want to face themselves as men in the public eye. Because deep down they both felt like women and were not yet ready to be open about it.

the scene in Neos cubical is CIMINALLY UNDERRATED. When he receives the package with the cell phone and has to sign for it, the pen he uses is one of those old multi color ink pens, two obvious colors that stand out (red & blue) symbolizing knowledge of the Real (red) and those who are still sleep inside the matrix (blue). Neo currently not convinced of the real world signs in the BLUE ink.

It's crazy because we're always asked to sign in blue or black but never red. Also, growing up playing goodies & baddies. Subconsciously the good guy colour is blue and the bad guy colour is red. It's been integrated into our childhood. It's a form of control and misdirection from the truth within the matrix.

I asked a teacher in jr high why we are told to use blue or black, I was told that they work better for scanning/photocopying. This was 25 years ago

I'd say its more overlooked than underrated. Those who notice the comparisons have no choice but to praise the work. Unfortunately a lot of people don't watch movies with the necessary attentiveness. Great point though, amazing scene and not meant to be argumentative
