[QUOTE]Originally posted by Cartmaniac: [QB] <font size=5>$$$</font> . . . . . . . . . <font size=5>$$$</font> Don't say I didn't warn ya... Now that my mind has had a chance to properly digest Reloaded (it leans heavily on pseudo-philosophical elements, messes with your head like Existenz did [which sucked, btw]), here's my take on the plot: Zion is a second matrix within The Matrix! WHAT YOU SAY[i]!![/i] Well, think about it: Neo is "the one" in the Matrix, but in the "real world" he can do & feel more, too... leading me to believe Zion is a submatrix to keep people satisfied and subdued, and that Neo is a program, sought out by everyone, a goal in peoples' lifes. Key figures like the Oracle and the Keymaker exist to help them fulfill their "quest". Except *this* Neo, v6.0, is unlike the others (we're apparently in the sixth cycle of Escape --> construction of Zion --> liberation of Humanity --> its Destruction --> reboot of the Matrix)... he's smarter, faster, in love with Trinity, makes different choices along the way, and begins to figure out that even Zion isn't reality, but a popsicle stick for insurgents. Revolutions will likely deal with mankind's total victory over the machines (as the loop could keep repeating itself indefinitely) and Neo's ultimate sacrifice, Messiah-style. Action: kickass, if overdone Story: so-so (been there, done that), the teensiest bit long-winded Dialogue: cheesy and over-the-top in some scenes, otherwise bearable Overall: :cool: [/QB][/QUOTE]
