[QUOTE]Originally posted by thoughtychops: [QB] The Matrix was the consensual hallucination programmed by the AIs, an artifical construct built with one purpose: To enslave the human race mentally, and turn them into batteries. The AIs had previously tried to make the Matrix a paradise for humans, but they apparently didn't have the programming language needed to represent humanities perfect world, and people rejected it. It was changed into a representation of the apex of mankind's civilization, the year 1999. It isn't mentioned in the movie if all of the world lives in an avatar New York or not, but I think they probably do. It would be easier to track them all in a massive self-indexed city than across different geographic locations. Thus, while the Matrix itself was a vast prorgram, an operating system, but it wasn't self-aware. It was patrolled by self-aware programs, called Agents, who effectivly represented every asshole IRC cop and evil administrator in existence. The heroes were the heroic hackers, the ones that want to free your mind. Sorry. I watched it last night. [/QB][/QUOTE]
