The Matrix Full Movie Rewatch & Analysis! What hidden details did you miss from The Matrix when it premiered 20 years ago, and how did it influence all action & sci-fi cinema from Inception to John Wick? By popular demand, Erik Voss rewatches The Matrix (1999) for a scene-by-scene, in-depth breakdown, exploring the deeper philosophy of the Wachowskis' cyberpunk concepts and secret subliminal messages that are only now being discovered. How does The Matrix opening scene discreetly foreshadow the major reveals later in the film -- Cypher's betrayal, Agent Smith's uniqueness, and the movie's groundbreaking action with wire-stunts, martial arts, firearm choreography, and "bullet time"? In what ways does The Matrix parallel its primary inspiration, Ghost in the Shell (1995)? And does The Matrix deserve its revered status, or was it merely overthought gun porn for anime-lovers who wear sunglasses inside Hot Topic? (What a dumb question!)

When Neo is escaping from the Agents, he calls Tank and calls him Mr. Wizard. And according to a Wikipedia article: A software wizard or setup assistant is a user interface type that presents a user with a sequence of dialog boxes that lead the user through a series of well-defined steps. Tasks that are complex, infrequently performed, or unfamiliar may be easier to perform using a wizard.

The two opening chords are mirrored versions of each other (e minor and c major), one to symbolise the matrix and one the real world. B goes down 4 semitones to G then down 3 semitones to E, while the Adjacent C goes up 4 semitones to E and then up 3 semitones to G. There’s lots of cool little nuggets in this score

@gilbatzri 2 года назад

I am not sure I agree with the idea that it is an homage to 1984, aside from passing references to the panopticon, which could be a general modern theme, I don't see a lot of resemblance to anything from 1984, The "News as Propaganda" is very thin thread, and conceptually was not what Orwell was getting at in the novel. I think 101 as a nod to binary is a much better reference, than room 101 from 1984. So ten points to you @Brady Johnson.

@totallypixelated Год назад

There's quite a few references to synthesisers in this movie. SH101 is one, Trinity is another, room 303 is featured (TB-303), Morpheus (Emu Morpheus), Oberheim Matrix, etc. I'm sure there's quite a few more but it's years since I've seen the movie and they're not mentioned here.

@dalegreer3095 Год назад

Binary 101 is 5 base 10. I don't know if that means anything though.

Furthermore, as the Architect said, Neo is the sixth anomaly, the sixth controlled opposition which they used to destroy Zion, wipe the slate clean, and then allow the inevitable revolution to commence again, but always a *controlled* revolution. Account for this, along with how Morpheus' "for 100 years" speech in Reloaded, and it's probably closer to the year 2699. 100 years per revolution times 5 previous revolutions equals 500 years, plus Morpheus' estimate of 2199, which comes to 2699. Be wary of revolutions and revolutionaries in reality, for they may be unwitting agents of the very system they think they're revolting against.

Being that in the 3rd movie the people were plugged into a program to control the opening of the gates and docking of the ships . I see that as Zion being part of the Matrix somehow ?

My biggest thing about the matrix is who plugged cypher in when he was negotiating the reinsertment with smith?

@Rose_Bride 2 года назад

I wondered that, too!

@ThatLandonSmith 2 года назад

The scene where Neo sneaks up on him and they have a conversation about “why didn’t I take the blue pill?” Cypher quickly shuts off something he is working on. People think that he was writing a program so he could put himself in and take himself out without an operator.

@VidarrKerr 3 года назад

Not really original at all except in the way that it took other peoples' work and put it together in an original way it had never been done before. Almost all the ideas in the Matrix were taken from other works of art. That doesn't make the Matrix bad, it was awesome, but "original" is not really the word to describe it.

Everyone misses the fact that Neo wasn't the one till he got the "software upgrade" (ate the cookie) the Oracle gave him. He got a further "software upgrade" when he ate the piece of candy the Oracle gave him, which could also have been an antivirus to protect him from Smith.

@gilbatzri 2 года назад

Yes, you gain the ability to think, and "time slows" but I don't have any recollection of being able to act on the feelings in a material way when things slowed down, it was more like I could analyse the situation at much higher speed than I normally could, but my ability to "influence" the situation as it were was NOT increased.. That has been my experience with it the two times I have encountered it. What has your experience with it been hive mind? Is is a turbo mode, where you can figure out what is happening faster and more clearly? or is it something that gifts you the power to change the situation (ie take some kind of action you otherwise might not)?

@Willy_Tepes 2 года назад

I lit the fuse on a homemade "fireworks" and saw that the fuse burned way too fast and was able to throw it in the split second it took for the thing to go off, but unfortunatly I did not manage to throw it more than half a metre.

Something kind of small that I noticed on my first watch through is that the tiling on the ground floor of the building where Neo chooses the Red Pill is shown as black and white tiling. Though it could be nothing, this pattern certainly evokes the idea of 1's and 0's, i.e. the code that makes up the Matrix.
