I like it. All of them leave an open end to your imagination.


Favorite was Detective Story, Final Flight of the Osirus, and Beyond.

looked best, yes... but it was lacking in one fundamental component... Plot.

all that happened was they fight, get chased, and then fun matrix-y stuff... But the visuals were amazing.

I'm liking Beyond and Osiris, though.

Ok. what I gathered from Matriculated was that it was an earlier time, like pre-Neo. Pre-Morpheus, I think... I'm thinking it was more like a time before even Zion. They try to give machines a choice to help them. I'm thinking that the program they went into was one to show the machine that they'd help it so long as it wasn't trying to kill them, which helped to sway the machine from the rest of the machines' influence. Kind of like putting someone in danger, only to get them out of it to gain their trust. Like the guy said, "To an artificial mind, all reality is virtual" So the machine didn't know it wasn't real. So it just believed what it saw and accepted it as the truth. At the end, I didn't understand what happened after it plugged her and itself in again. Like maybe it knew their struggle and wanted to spare her from the pain of the world, so it jsut ended her suffering. then it took over her duties as watcher of that blue thing. :dunno:
