Coby + Matrix: Round 2 -- Enjoy ! MATRIX Reaction: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i813fqxhyM_Kn58.html MATRIX Revolutions: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ar2KgbtputvTl3k.html

Love how Niobe’s character has a hard time picking a man. Art… imitating life 😂

"You!" "Yes, me! Me, me, me!!" "Me, too!" Always made me laugh. 😂😂😂

This was such a blast in the cinema, especially the freeway chase. One thing I love is in the Merovingian's home every single painting and statue has his face on them. And he has an absolute ton of them !

Off-topic, but I love that Keanu is such a genuine sweetheart in real life.

You have a good eye for filming and details. The Agent smith brawl scene and the insane freeway chase scenes were filmed at a decommissioned Naval Air Base station in Alameda CA. The production team actually built a 1.5 long freeway for this specific chase scene. General Motors reportedly donated over 300 cars for the scene to be used or destroyed while filming. Many of the visual effects techniques used in the first movie were becoming somewhat obsolete for the visual scenes the directors wanted to achieve in this film like the burly brawl sequence with agent Smith. So, the VFX team had to come up with new ways of digitizing entire scenes of people and buildings etc.. Sometimes using virtual cameras instead of real ones for the fight scene. In the end the Brawl scene cost about $40 million and nearly a month to produce.

2003, year of the matrix sequels, I still remember to this day the collective wtf for the "to be continue" in the theatre I was in. 😂😂

12:37 Damn, that Aussie accent was so good it’s like it never left your soul.

19:01 - That bowling pin sound effect when he throws one of the Smiths into the others gets me everytime. 😂

Agent Smith being “Freed” by Neo just means now he is similar to Neo in that he can do ALMOST anything in the Matrix. But he still can’t leave. Unless you count taking over Bane’s mind and body and leaving through the phone. And I imagine he wouldn’t have to follow any commands given by the matrix’s Powers that be.

A way to think about why Neo could affect the matrix from outside is to see it as: he found a way to connect by Wi-Fi instead of cable.

The first three Matrix movies came before all the John Wick movies. It was Keanu's stunt double from these movies that went on to direct the John Wick movies, hence the reason for actors to be in both franchises like Laurence Fishburn and the Key Maker in this being the Continental's doctor. The fourth Matrix movie was greenlit after John Wick 3 had been made. At one point the plan was for Matrix 4 to be made, Keanu was then going to go straight into making the 4th John Wick movie since he would be in good physical shape after getting in shape for the Matrix 4 fights. Then both movies were scheduled to come out the same weekend. Once people realized that both Matrix 4 and John Wick 4 were scheduled to come out the same weekend fans were saying they were planning on taking the Friday of the release date off and marathoning all three Matrix movies, the three John Wick movies and then going to see the fourth movies of each franchise back-to-back in the theater over the weekend. Unfortunately, during filming of Matrix 4 the pandemic shutdown filming of Matrix 4, which ended up pushing back production of John Wick 4 as well and the movies came out in different years.

I love the fact you enjoy these movies, but what I laughed about and enjoyed was the fact you know your bikes 🏍!! 😂😂😂 love that.

I'm so glad you decided to continue down the rabbit hole! While not perfect, I think there's lots of cool aspects and ideas to Matrix 2 &3. Seeing someone experience these emotions for the first time is a treat!

I have seen a few other reactions to this but Lady Coby has been the best. She is smart, knowledgeable, and animated. Very cool.

Yes, Keanu Reeves did train for this as well. From what I hear he’s some kind of savant with martial arts and gun training. He picks it up extremely quickly.

The highway scene was shot on a purpose built set. They didn't shut down any California highways to shoot that.

Now, watch Keanu Reeves again in Point Break. Awesome movie for you.

Hey there! In the beginning of the movie, they talk about the last message sent from the Osiris. That's the name of one of the ships like the Nebuchadnezzar. The beginning of The Animatrix is Final Flight of the Osiris, which will explain the message that was sent!

Coby: Jessica from _Suits_ ! Me: Jasmine from _Angel_ !

I saw this in the theater, and it was one of the most energetic crowds I have ever seen. There were cheers, fist pumps, laughter and plenty of celebration. Everyone was enjoying the this.

Neo went down the rabbit hole in the first movie. The question is, HOW DEEP IS THE RABBIT HOLE?

I kept laughing. I'm a goth elder and have been Victorian goth since the early 80s. The clothes,the style the backgrounds, color choices are a wet dream home to me.👍

Coby, regarding the scene where Neo and crew are walking to the elevator to board the ship and the Smith-infected human is stalking Neo with a knife ready to kill him. The kid that interrupts the attack to give Neo the spoon freed himself from the Matrix and credits Neo, but Neo says "I didn't save you, you saved yourself". The kid's story is featured in the Animatrix cartoon featurettes. So what happens in that scene is that one of the other "potentials" from the first film makes the kid promise to give Neo a spoon which saves Neo's life (so the other "potential" presumably can also see the future?), and so Neo survives entirely because of a kid who extracts himself from the Matrix on his own. Mind blown yet?

The story gets a bit more convoluted in this one already, but I really don't agree with many people that the second and third Matrix are just cashgrabs, even if they can't be as mindblowing as the first one. This is a fun reaction to watch because you understand and engage with the themes! Can't wait to see the third movie.

Hilarious that Coby instantly totally keys in on the fatal flaw of having THE ONE get nerfed and the upgrades.

It's important to remember that Neo is technically a cyborg. He was changed by his visit to the Source. Neo is the first One to ever choose the door back to the Matrix. He was never supposed to return. After he came back, he could "feel" the machines. He tapped into the Source to stop them but the effort of doing that put him in a coma.

So much fun watching these favorite movies with Coby. Such great reactions.

You'd be surprised by the crazy 🤣 thoughts and theories after I saw this in the theater 🎭 it was a fun decoding conversation on the way home.

This makes me smile so big, I'm psyched for you to finish up this trilogy. Your reaction(s) to it all have been a pleasure to watch. *high-fives*

The stun double of Keanu is the director of 3 of 4 John Wick movies, and check this, his name is Chad, the stun double of the guy who plays The One is Chad.

@30:48, we can thank the 2.25 km fabricated stretch of freeway that Debbie Evans rides on to make this stunt as in-camera as possible. (If you haven’t uncovered some of the behind the scenes)

I came for Coby’s RARR’s and smile… stayed for her predictions. lol 🔮 Always a pleasure! 😎❤️‍🔥

A little backstory if Coby does watch Matrix Resurrections. Warner Bros said they were going to do a 4th movie with or without the Wachoskis. The meta commentary that comes from that is very fitting for the theme of the movie direction that Lana takes.

Neo defeated Smith at the end of the first film by jumping inside of him and exploding. Instead of killing Smith, it somehow gave him the ability to make duplicates of himself by copying himself onto others inside the Matrix including other Agents. Now, a copy of him exists outside the Matrix in the physical body of Bane. And Bane is lying next to Neo seemingly also in a coma...

My guess as to how Neo was able to stop the Sentinels at the end: he temporarily became a living, breathing mobile hotspot. No, I'm serious. The Matrix can obviously be accessed wirelessly or Zion ships wouldn't be able to send their crews into it. The Matrix is in turn connected to whatever network exists between all the machines. Neo's experience as The One gave him a unique intuition for the nature of thought and signals. So, Neo temporarily realized some huge, fundamental truth that enabled him to wirelessly hack into the Matrix without any hardware. From there, he hacked into the machine network and used that to overload the Sentinels.

It’s really fckn creepy how I’ll be watching this movie on Netflix yesterday, and now I’m being recommended a reaction video for it.

Imagine being in the threater when that to be concluded popped up knowing you had to wait. Thankfully they filmed these together and the wait was only May to October, but man it was still a brutal wait!

Neo disconnected Smith from the Machine System at the end of the first movie, and with his already fragmenting code, he ended up turning into a virus; one that can overwrite any code connected to the Matrix. The guard the Merovingian's wife killed was a Werewolf, as was the other one. And the Twins are essentially ghosts. They're all from the Nightmare version of the Matrix Smith talked about in the first movie. Seraph, meanwhile, is an Agent from the Paradise version. Edit: The thing that took me forever to understand was the Oracle is still a part of the control. She's staunchly a Matrix supporter. She propagates the Prophecy of The One through each iteration of the Matrix. The people released to the new Zion are told of the Prophecy, and they spread it to their children and the new Red Pills. But since it seems to take decades, maybe even centuries, (remember the Councilor was 11 when he was unplugged), the Prophecy has time to properly grow and take root. (Edit: I mean, I knew the Prophecy itself was a form of control, but I still thought the Oracle was pushing for Mankind for her own reasons.)

Neo being one of the potential "Ones" meant that he was altered so that he could handle the "One" code. Remember the Oracle telling him he had the "Gift," but he was waiting for something. Waiting for what? His next life, perhaps. He activated that code when he died in the first movie. In this movie, he is uploaded with the additional "Source" code when he goes to the Source. That code has everything necessary to reboot or reload the Matrix, and basically has the effect of connecting him to the machine world, like a wifi patch in his brain. This is how he is now able to sense the sentinels and shut them down.

Watching this in the theatre, when Neo killed the sentinels I came to the only logical conclusion. That Zion and all its people were just trapped in another Matix made for the rebels. I could just see Neo explaining that to everyone in the third movie. And realizing that it wouldn't make any difference in their lives would have been the ultimate mind-f**k.

That single sided swingarm on the Ducati is just 👌

Keanu trained extensively for the first three Matrix movies. I don't know how much overlap there was in preparation between the Matrix and John Wick movies because there was a good 10 years between the release of Matrix Revolutions and the first John Wick movie. But I do believe that he continued doing his own fight and weapons training in the intervening years. Keanu's Matrix stunt double Chad Stahelski would become one of the co-directors of John Wick, so he likely developed the role specifically with Keanu and his training experience in mind.

The bts of the freeway chase is amazing, the choreography of the cars and everything. And how massive the the set was

31:44 The call "one-adam-12" goes back to an old TV show, from the late 60s and early 70s, name Adam-12. Every episode, they would get calls on their police radio starting with "one-Adam-12, one-Adam-12 ..." For example .... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mZZxdJhil7CtfoU.htmlsi=EGGzFAYV1B3Zm4wa&t=88

I always liked the theory that there are at least 3 levels to the Matrix. There's 1. New York with Agents and stuff. 2. 'Real World' with pod people and Zion. And 3. An as yet unseen world that is actually "real." That explains Neo having powers in the 'real world.' Unfortunately, if you start down that mental path, it quickly becomes turtles all the way down...

"Finding Nemo" actually beat this movie in Box Office returns when the 2 films were released to movie theaters in May 2003. I still remember the front cover headline in Entertainment Weekly that read "Nemo Beat Neo". Very clever!

So glad you're watching more. People are down on the sequels but I love them. The 4th is awesome as well, and I'm pretty certain you'll want to watch it after the end of Revolutions. As for using his powers outside of the Matrix, it's pretty much just Bluetooth. Understanding that the One's powers were programed by the machines let him see/feel that he is connected to all of their other programs and could manipulate them the same as the Matrix.

If you can find the DVD Extras, they actually built the Highway of Death as an outdoor set! It was pretty fantastic set building to see.. Love your reactions, I gotta say..

The reaction to the “To Be Continued” is the realest reaction I’ve ever scene.

You should see the 2003 MTV Movie Awards opening, it’s a spoof of Matrix Reloaded

It kinda makes sense that Neo has the same abilities in the real world as he's The One. If the Matrix is just a computer program, everyone would have superpowers and The "One" wouldn't be relevant.

Fun fact they built their own highway for the chase scene.

Imagine that the machines running the Matrix on a computer, but they control their own city and "people" from the same computer. This means technically Neo can jump between the Matrix and their own control program, to do changes there too. Since the machines are communicating wireless, Neo can easily shut them down in real life. That is why he says "something is changed" when leaving the ship, because he could receive and pass on signals sent by the machines. What has really hanged is the fact that from the seven "One", he was the only person who choose to go back to the Matrix, the six before him choose the reset of the Matrix to default, so even the machine world and the Architect have no precedence of what will happen now.

The Matrix trilogy. Handing out existential crises since 1999.

I KNEW I was hearing just the slightest hint of an aussie accent watching the Star Wars reactions

Yeah, that ending is why I don't think of these as the 2nd and 3rd sequels, but rather as Part 1 and Part 2 of a single sequel.

Funny little fact about the key maker is that the actor also played the continental doctor in John wick series

Even though this one is arguably less good than the first one, the coolness of the twins makes it up for me 👻👻

they main actors where all send to a 4 month kung fu bootcamp before making the first movie.

Cant wait for part 3! subscribed!

43:14 "If the Matrix is all code and programming and that's why he can, like, beat it, how can he beat reality?" Now that's a very good question. It has interesting implications for the nature of reality, don't you think?

Really cool fun fact by the way, they actually built that whole freeway for that scene

Fun watching this with you. You are in for some suprises with the next one. Wont say more than that. :D

In your Matrix series, don't forget to include "The Animatrix". It is a collection of various styled animation shorts that tell the history of the world, and other interesting stories exploring The Matrix universe. It's really good.

Coby knows her Ducs. As another woman into them (owned an 848) I am intrigued as to the backstory there. I really enjoyed your reaction 😀

I'm not sure if it's been said, but the matrix always has a "green tint" and the real world is more grey. He def trained for this and I think Keanu said this is what sparked his interest in doing alot of his stunt work. The guys he's fighting when they picked up the key maker are called exiles old programs. They are stronger than agents.

43:21 I have a fan theory (me, a fan, I have a theory lol) that when they were outside the Matrix, they were still in the Matrix, like when they thought they were out in reality, it was another layer of the Matrix.

They did film the freeway scene in CA, near SF I believe, mirrored 101

Trinity's jump out of the building through the window and Neo choosing Trinity knowing she gets shot in the heart makes no sense to me. Pretty much my only gripe with the movie.

Hi Coby Here are some film suggestions for you to consider : The hitcher (1986, thriller) Retroactive (thriller, sci-fi) The killers (1964, crime) Dr. Strangelove (claasic dark comedy) The mouse that roared (comedy) The party (comedy) The cheap detective (comedy) The ladykillers (1955, classic comedy) Papillon (drama) Wolf creek 1 and 2 (horror)

Gotta remember Keanu’s stunt double is the director of all 4 John Wick movies.

I saw that lol.. that moment when Neo flew away from all the agent smiths, and you said "y'all can't do that.." and for a sec you thought maybe they could do that.. lol because I did the same thing 👍

The second and third films are definitely not just cash grabs, and I personally love the convolution (or, as I prefer, the evolving *intricacy* of the plot. Smith’s development was foreshadowed from the first film. The overall storyline was envisioned from the beginning; however, *The Matrix* (the original) was written in such a way that it might stand alone as a complete story if the reception was poor, considering the enormous budgets required to create these films.

I heard that whole car chase/freeway sequence took a year to shoot lol 32:47 "go kick his ass"

Of course Neo sees images as people......he can also see the written code 13:31

🙏🏻You have to watch the Animatrix(Mini stories) Because in one of those, they show you what happens to the osiris Ship As well as The story Of The failed relationship between man and machine😮

It was funny how Coby structured the door choice to save Trinity, then save Zion..thats not how it works, its one or the other. You have to ask yourself, Whats the point of saving Trinity if the entire human race is destroyed by the machines?

Casey Stoner Best Ducati team rider, ever. Watch some of his MotoGP races , particularly against Rossi.

Me again,last time. They were NOT arrested for protesting there were arrested for not dispersing when the police were called by school officials.

Speaking of the 101, I can't count how many times I've fantasized taking a semi and plowing traffic jams.

I’ve been waiting for this 🎉 hope you have a great day Cobe!

Any time we are in the matrix, there is a green tint to everything.

Matrix Revolutions. Absolutely calling it that from now on.

The films peaked with Neo meeting the Architect. If it ended there, with Neo deciding which door to take, I'd call it the greatest two movies ever But then it went Game of Thrones Season 8 from that point onward.

Neo's interaction with Smith ended up breaking his programming in an unexpected way. He was nolonger bound by the confines of the system's rules, and found that he could reformat or consume other programs and patterns. He reformatted Bane, the dude with the goatee, and was trying to overwrite his mind in the real world.

The freeway was a set piece they built for the scene. One of the biggest at set pieces made at that time

I think those grew up during this time will always know him Keanu as Neo. Three matrix was very influential at the time where John wick came after and captured a whole different generation.

You really enjoy Keanu. He's also great in the Ronin movie 2012. With Hiroyuki Sanada. Pay no attention to naysayers.. it's a damn good movie.

Everyone has their own take but I believe "real world" is just another matrix and control mechanism. I think thats how Neo still has powers in the "real world". Also Merovingian's guards are basicly vampires and werewolves. In that scene even there is a vampire movie playing in the background. They are from much older version of the Matrix. Seraph is also from much older version. He is basicly a guardian angel. Merovingian is ancient too. I've read a theory about him once. He might be the first chosen one. After his mission ends he continued to his existence in the new Matrix versions.

What I like about these reactions , Isn't people's faces or the emotions anything like that But to see if people connect the big picture, To see how most people think ... As I Observe most reactors Don't. ..

Your question of how is Neo able to effect things outside the Matrix? Remember that Neo was created by the Matrix. He's not really human, at least, not only human.

What a genuine reaction! I'm new to the channel. Love the channel name and you seem like good fun people. 👍

my leg hurt watching yours stuck for so long on the couch :D

The martial arts training for the first movie was about two or three months I think. This one lasted eight months.

I always though it was not Neo stoping machines at the end but EMP from second boat which came seconds after that.

Some stuff to make it less confusing with the architect etc. I will explain the machine stopping outside the matrix in the end part. Matrix 2 is much more complicated, but once you the theories and ideas. It elevates far more. Smith was a program for the machine to get rid of anomalies in the Matrix. Thats why Smith was so driven to destroy Neo, he wanted to be free from Matrix because he is stuck there. Think of it as a intelligent program that can think on its own. So Smith wants to clean the matrix and then his purpose is done and he will return the the source (the machine mainframe) where all the not needed programs get to and face deletion. Thats the purpose of agent smith. However when neo destroyed him, he changed his code because he can change parts of the matrix. This meant that he was cut from the source and machines no longer could delete him, because his code is not recognizable and he became an anomaly himself. Thats literally what neo is, an anomaly in the matrix and he changed Smith which made him an anomaly. Thats why he could not be deleted after Neo destroyed him. Smith returned as no longer part of the system (hence why he refers to Neo that he set him free). Smith is now no longer controlled, but he still strives after his purpose of destroying Neo in search of freeing himself from the matrix (since he is still just a program and not wired to the system). Smith is a just a program and his code cant be changed by himself so the only way he can increase his power to fight Neo is to actually copy himself. He does this by taking over other programs and makes copies himself. Architect was created by machines to make matrix. Shortly he tried various variants of the matrix which eventually was leading to failiures because humans are not easy to control does not matter which type of world hell or heaven he created an anomaly that is The One eventually emerged. Thus he came to conclusion that this is mathematical equation that is the remaining unsolved part of big mathematical equilibrium. This problems arise because there is element of choice involved which is unpredictable. Stuff like when neo choose to stop and fight Smith in the train despite knowing he would die. This are types of stuff that architect can not solve with logic. So machines instead decided to create another approach. The Oracle. She is another program created by machines similar to the architect to instead study human psychology and see why humans choose as they do and how to create a harmonic world where humans would live without questions. But the oracle grows liking towards humans, sort of like a sympathy. She always knew Neo is the one, one could even guess that Neo becomes one only because she gave the code of the one via the cookie she gave him. Meanwhile Smith is becoming increasingly more problem for the machines, because he is taking over the programs in the matrix and the machines cant delete him. He even manages rewrite the brain of human connected to the matrix. As for why neo could stop the octopus machines outside the matrix. Its because he entered the source with the key, he is now wired to the matrix without a plug. Think about it as a wifi connection to the matrix. Since he is connected to source and the machines, he can feel them with slow wifi connection and even affect their system. Hope this helped to understand a bit more since Reload is a bit confusing. Third part will be a bit easier to understand, but it will be much easier to follow if you fully understand whats going on in the second.

fun fact the keymaker is also the doctor in john wick 😂😂

Yes, so excited you did this!

So happy to see you reacting to this matrix sequel
