Do you think they'll ever reboot or continue the Matrix universe?

the machines were lucky John Wick wasnt around.

I just finished watching the trilogy on Netflix. I hadn't watched these movies since '03-'04 when I was 11. It's pretty cool re-watching these movies as an adult and being able to enjoy the references, story.

The thing I like about Smith is that, he always talks to Neo with respect (Mr. Anderson).

I used to _try_ to re-enact that first Trinity fight scene in my backyard as a kid. The Matrix was a huge part of my childhood. Still love it.

The casting was perfect in this movie. Especially Smith and the Architect.

That this trilogy challenges people to think and interpret its themes years after it ended is one of the reasons I love it so much.

Agent Smith is not a virus, he is Elrond, son of Eärendil and Lord of Rivendell :D

I have a couple of other interpretations. Smith and Neo are different sides in an equation. Neo getting stronger equals Smith getting stronger. By killing Neo in the end, one side is getting zero. So the other side had to go zero too. The Oracle knew this and played along, hoping to create a situation that would make the machines willing to accept a truce or peace. The architect / machines did not know this. Hence the ending comment "you played a risky game."

Cant believe its nearly 20 years since the first matrix movie came out...june 1999.. Time flys

The Smith doesn't have a choice but only has a purpose. Beautifully explained.

I could watch the trilogy 10 times in a row and still not get bored

So basically the machines always allow rebels (free humans) and "the one" so that they can seek out the weaknesses of the Matrix. The Rebels think they are beating back the matrix and the machines and freeing mankind but in actuality they are only strengthening the Machines hold on humanity because those rebels showed the machines the weaknesses in their matrix and now the next version of the Matrix (humanity's prison) is that much stronger and harder to fight back against. And this is supposed to keep happening until it is perfected

No reboot needed...let this trilogy go down in history as a classic

Thank god will smith didn’t get the part

Matrix 4 is officially announced! Some ya'll may think it's a bad idea but for me it's a dream come true. I've wished hard for this for so many years and it's such a great feeling It'll be so special if Smith returns too

Well Matrix 4 is happening! This has been answered :)

1st Matrix movie as a young kid blew my mind. The sequels after I didn't mind but the first movie was something different I had never seen before. Still one of my fav movies.

The backstory in the animatrix was so good

who else came back? lol i just had a trilogy marathon myself

One thing that wasn't mentioned regarding the final battle with Smith was that the prime Smith had copied over the Oracle, and that Smith was the one fighting Neo. That's why he said "Everything that has a beginning had an end, Neo." It was the Oracle speaking through Smith, encouraging Neo to accept being overwritten by Smith, causing not just a fusion of sorts between Neo and Smith, but also including the Oracle. Upon being overwritten, the machine Mecha sends a fatal virus through Neo's physical body into his form in the Matrix, which has become the prime Smith. This virus corrupts him, amd subsequently all the other Smiths, causing 'splosions, also killing Neo in the process.

Plot twist John Wick is the Neo of the 7th version of the Matrix

5 ads..... KZfaq is really getting aggressive with them.. geesh

Who else came here after watching the matrix 4 trailer as a refresher?

Who else is here after confirmation of the 4th Matrix film!? Production starts next year. Beyond pumped!

The plot is so complex that You could be asked to explain it during your job interview.

Not true at all. The reason why Smith got destroyed in the end was that Neo was Jacked into the mainframe during that battle. As Oracle told Neo "When the purpose of a programme is done, it has two choices. It can either return to the source and be destroyed or Hide somewhere in the Matrix. That's what Smith was doing. He didn't return to the source for deletion on its own. But when he copied on to the Neo, he got delivered to the source.

Matrix Director "Sorry guys, even I am still confused when I think more about it"

"It almost felt like a betrayal, thinking Neo can only control stuff inside the matrix" that's called growth and story progression. It didn't feel like a betrayal at all, it felt like he was becoming stronger.

It's the same as trying to figure out Microsoft's licencing policy, I can't understand shit

Agent Smith actor Hugo Weaving should've been at least nominated for his role.

I'm glad I've watched this, now I can finally get some sleep 🤨

Best anti-virus story ever :P

I don't think they should ever reboot the Matrix but they could expand the universe.

The matrix was correct about something, Humanity peaked in 1999

I like how people think that the "2" sequels are separate and not just part 1 and 2 of one giant 4 hour movie. Revolutions starts where Reloaded ended. Is it really that hard to see?

Who else is here after watching the Matrix 4 trailer?

*MR. ANDERSON!*

Man I love this trilogy, its brillant and was too much for people to handle in 2003. Now people are starting to rediscover and understand its implications

So happy to see this video. As a teenager, I have seen the movies and remained with lots of ambiguities and confusion. That has been resolved now. Thank you

I am so glad you called the final fight between Neo and Smith a super saiyan battle, it might be the closest thing to a live-action one we'll get 😔

I love that i was named after one of the coolest movies ever

90s/Early 2000s was the best. - Matrix - WWF/WWE Attitude Era | Ruthless Aggression Era - Spiderman (Tobey Maguire) Ahh so many memories!!!!

i kinda feel like this explanation is about as confused and disjointed as the series itself. odd

I miss the original oracle, may she rest in peace

"There is no spoon" This has been my mantra for years now. Pretty much. Probably the most helpful thing anyone in the matrix said to Neo.

I'm watching this so I can pretend to know what I'm talking about when Matrix 4 comes out. Thanks Looper!

These Movies have the Deepest Meaning of every movie ever created , You CANT reboot a Perfection .

The thing about the One is that technically anybody can do it by saying "no" to death inside the Matrix. When Trinity kissed Neo as he lay dying in the Matrix he felt it in the real world, at which point he realized he's not bleeding to death in a hallway, he is sitting in a chair. He's always known this but now he FEELS it too. And just like when you realize you are dreaming and can control the dream, Neo can now do the same thing in the Matrix. Everyone else that gets shot or something in the Matrix DIES, but if you can overcome this "directive to die" you become the One. The Architect said that 99.99% accept it but if you do the math that would mean THOUSANDS of One's in a population the size of Zion. But the Architect was not talking about the One, he was talking about red pills, which account for all the people in Zion. They (like Neo) realized something was off the their reality and refused to accept it, at some point being found, red pilled, and recruited to fight for Zion. But none of them DIED in the Matrix and refused to accept it. That's how he got all his power, that's why he would see the code itself. He basically figured out how to lucid dream in the Matrix, which is why the code glitches around him since there is no code for the ability to fly or stop bullets, he just wills it to happen and the Matrix has to accept it. This is also how he brought Trinity back to life, he WILLED the life into her and the Matrix made it true, which stopped her brain from making her body die.

20 years later & the question is still being analyzed.

I think the rule of Smith is not well explained. In the first movie, even before new shattered him at the end, Smith was rogue. It's evident in the fact that he unplugs his ear, and talks to Morpheus, saying with Zion he will have no use. He did not want the information for the machines, but for himself. Which is why he orders the other agents to leave the room. My only theory at this point, is that at the end of the first movie, Neo does not shatter and kill smith. But recognizing his rogue nature, he gives him the extra power willingly as an enemy of the enemy. By the end of the trilogy, existence and power of smith is the only thing that saves humanity.

theres so much symbolism and stuff that makes you think in this movie. absolute classic trilogy

John Wick series is the sequel to the Matrix. Just like Smith could exit the Matrix in a human body, Neo could copy his mind into the Matrix while his body died and thus continue to exist as a program. Unfortunately, he lost his memories in the process since it was never done before. Nobody knows Neo copied himself so no one can find him, not even the Architect, because when he copied himself and lost his memory, he basically formatted his mind and also lost his The One unique signature so now he's seen by the Matrix as just another program. That's when John Wick starts. It's inside the Matrix and Neo is just trying to adapt. Some of his combat skills were left in his code so he decided the best way to exploit those would be to become an assassin. Why an assassin and not just a Kung Fu trainer or something benevolent? Well, because when he merged with Smith, some of Smith's code was left in him, corrupting him but not entirely. That's why he chose to retire and start a normal family. Explains his almost superhuman combat skills, his bullet sponge abilities, Laurence Fishburne appearing again (it's his mind trying to put itself back together showing him familiar faces) and especially the last scene of John Wick 2, when all the people in the street start watching him, quite a Matrix-y moment if you ask me, like what are the odds that there's a professional hitman every 5 meters in one city?

I've seen the trilogy about 25 times now and I learn something new and love it a little more each time. This just gave me a profound understanding of why.

I still don't understand what the matrix is about but it's provocative,keeps me going.

I’ve always marvelled at people’s dislike for any but the original Matrix movie, when to me the whole trilogy was The Matrix. I loved them all! Just a phenomenal 3 part movie : ) Great explanation by the way and one I agree with, but I think that everyone who was in the Matrix when Neo popped all the Smiths died and they will have to start again from the battery farms. Too dark?

Keanu Reeves is a real boss. Trains with real guns. Can fight.

This is timeless because of the way the story is written. " you believe it is 1999..."

1:00. Being t'he One' wasn't programmed into Neo. The One is an anomaly which randomly occurs by chance in the Matrix. Let me explain: Let's say there's a Matrix, without the 'choice' of rebellion. A perfect, 'unperfect' world. Like the Matrix within the movie, but without the rebellion. One day, by chance, luck, whatever you want to call it, someone will notice the Matrix by 'feeling' it. That person is what they call 'the one'. Neo, in the beginning was not the One, like the Oracle said. At least not yet. But later on he became the One/ a the One after freeing his mind by unmasking the fake reality.

To me, NEOs purpose in getting to the source was so when Smith imprinted into him the program could be identified and destroyed. Since previously Smith stated that he was "unplugged"

in buddhism sati is a sanskrit word meaning mindfulness or awareness. it is a hint at the compassionate approach being the correct approach also to those who haven’t seen it the animatrix shorts “the second renaissance, parts 1 and 2” are fantastic in fleshing out the back story of the world

The Matrix part 1 is in my top 10 of all time. Revolutionary and Carrie Anne Moss is in my top 5 crushes of all time.

Wait, so no one is feeling unsatisfied about the fact Neo never had the chance to completely destroy the machines and the matrix. Giving back humanity it’s reality even if it is not as good as the matrix.

This explanation makes the whole trilogy make so much more sense, and feel very satisfactory.

What's really going to bake your cookies later is why do I have to watch 6 ads in an 11 minute video.

Soon kids won’t even know what this movie is... Rip

11:14-11:18 What’s interesting is that they sort of took this approach for Matrix Resurrections. With the idea that people are discontent with what they have but too afraid to loose what they already have, so they just decide to settle for what they already have and call it love.

Never realized that Sadi's comment about the sunset was the same sunset at the end!! Good video. Explains a lot. Looking forward to the new Matrix coming out 2020. Hopefully coming out that year.

It baffles me how everybody simply forget what the Architect told Neo, about the origins of his powers and the fact that he is the "one": the One is just a concentration of several bugs in the Matrix. The Matrix is composed of many systems like time, space, gravity, physics and else. The Architect states that most of these systems have flawns and gliches that cannot simply be fixed (I wonder why), so he just sweep them under the carpet. What he does is to distribute these flawns and bugs on individuals inside the Matrix. The same individual may host more than one of those gliches, and eventually one may be "gifted" with several gliches from the most important systems. Upon gaining conscience of those "gifts", such individual would be able hack the Matrix itself and even scaping it, all the way to the core of the machine. This is the One, the individual who holds the exploits of the major Matrix systems, thus the power to reach (and compromise) its central server. In fact the One having the power to severly crash the Matrix was its the real bug, he was the sum of problems from the most important equations in the Matrix. Upon exploding Smith Neo created another bug, which was also able to hack the Matrix systems. Given that Smith main purpose was to destroy Neo, Neo himself inadvertly created a correction for the bug he was. That's why the Oracle explained him that Smith was just the other side of the equation trying to balance it. Smith was not a problem, he was the correction for the major Matrix bug: Neo. But Smith didn't understand that either, in his head he just wanted to destroy everything, but when he finally destroyed Neo he lost his purpose, he balanced the equation which allowed the Matrix to reboot instead of crashing. In the end the profecy was not about a future where the One would save the humanity from the machines, its real meaning was that the One would cause so much problem in the Matrix that the Machine would have no other way to save it without the help of the humans. Neo being a human asked the machine to spare the humans in Zion, which the machine had no way to refuse since the One had (inadvertly) compromised its security through Smith.

Give us one more sequel only. Matrix (IV) : The Explanation

Keanu Reeves has always been so handsome

last time i watched matrix 8 years while doing breakfast in slowmotion before leaving for school.

This movie is my all time favourite almost 20 year ago it came and still looks great !

did anyone notice minute 6:27 the front building was also the hotel used in John wick.

Well, that was helpful, because I had walked away with confusion, too. Thx.

That makes a lot of sense to me, and matches the nebulous but purposeful premises (both ethical and technical). Thank you.

The most clever part of the matrix (original) was that Rage against the Machines played "wake up" for the end credits.

This version of Plato's cave allegory is great. I wonder how it'll look for the next generation when everything is rebooted again.

Thank you so much for this video, it makes so much more sense and I like it even more.

Who's here after watching the Matrix 4 Trailer? :D

I never thought the ending was ambiguous to begin with....

The Matrix, celebrating 20 years! (1999-2019) 🎊🎉🎂😎

Great explanation. The complexity of it all, is what makes this film great.

I honestly think that the 1st matrix movie wss the best of all the 3 movies in this case because in some cases the sequels are sometimes better than the original movie

Good job! Surprisingly accurate!! Keep it up with 'The Matrix' materials!

Good explanation! But you missed one point: the spread of Smith is a conscious effort on the part of Oracle, as is evidenced by Smith calling her "Mom" and the Architect saying "you played a dangerous game".

This has to be the best and easiest explanation of everything matrix I’ve ever heard!! Well done sir!!

Sati, in Pali is mindfulness or awareness, a spiritual or psychological faculty.

Well. There you have it. Clear as mud. 😬

How anyone can think that that trilogy of films was not truly epic and remarkable,k after watching your breakdown analysis, truly confounds my mind.

Well after all these years of scratching my head at this film I think I I've finally getting it thanks to your explanation

Social media is the real Matrix. The only difference is that we willfully enter that prison.

As many times as I’ve watched The Matrix Trilogy, I never linked Sati as the machine world adopting the concept of love. It was re-released in 4K a few months back, giving it a rewatch.

The Matrix was created to keep Humans alive while the Earth recovered from pollution but the system became a prison instead of a lifeboat as originally planned. The Oracle was the system that monitored the planet"s return to viability was trying to alert them that they could but the program that ran it know as the Architect was overiding that order because it's priortized keeping the Marix running above all else. Zion was the former living areas were human crews once lived before automation made it unnecessary for them to repair/monitor the machines that took over and abandoned it for the virtual world it offered. The One was an ancient safe guard that rose occasionally in human form and once he refused to reboot it Satine was the interface that finally allowed humans know that the Earth could support them again. Smith was a small debugging program that was supposed to keep the virtual reality the Matrix provided glitch free but grew to believe that eliminating humans was the best way to fix it and Oracle/Arhitect were in its way. The sunset was the message to humans in the Matrix that there was another world that wasn't virtual and Neo was going into storage like to other versions before him with Trinity being recovered as well as stored with the others who were made to link The One between the Oracle/Architect which made each..

So, basically in Resurrections and (likely) its sequel there going to end the Matrix once and for all? That's my prediction. Going to be so sick!!!

Thanks for making sense out of this! I didn't think it was possible!

Version 7 of the Matrix was the ultimate foreshadowing of the coming of Windows 7 😂

I like the theory that the "real world" is just another level of the Matrix, it explains a lot xD

This was so good. Thank you.

So basically it takes 20 years to summary 'The Matrix' story, wow 👏 Anyway this trilogy is a legend, especially: - The Matrix : Bullets scene and stop the bullets, Helicop scene, guns storage, pills scene, lobby gun fight scene, and training scene - The Matrix Reloaded : Smith ambush, Highway chase, The Twins, Merovingian, Persephone cs - The Matrix Revolutions : Niobe cs, War with machine at Zion, stop the sentinel, neo got blind and he can see everything that people can't see, final fights with smith, and die Anything else, any one?
