[QUOTE]Originally posted by Bond, James Bond: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] Regarding the supernatural, Neo didn't exactly have the power to turn water to root beer or make the dead dance. He didn't even have the super-karateka skills in the real world. He only displayed one type of "supernatural" power, that over the Machines' minions. Which isn't all that supernatural in the end. __________________________________________________ Which is another point. Even though he doesn't have the same muscular strength outside the Matrix, why did he seem to forget his karate skills like Daniel Son in the Karate Kid did between each movie? He still has the memories of how to do Kung Fu so what's the problem? __________________________________________________ All it really tells us is that a man/machine connection can exist even when there isn't a big cable shoved into the man's midbrain. Neo is still stocked with more plumbing and wiring than your average Borg - his "miracle" is just the fact that he can go wireless, presumably thanks to the built-in hardware and some Neo-specific software. And that across that wireless connection, he can send the Machine minions the polite request to "drop dead" or "blow up in a fireball". __________________________________________________ I considered this as well but that would have to mean that the Machines gave him the ability to destroy them which makes no sense. And it should also mean that anyone could potentially do this, they all have the same plugs. If that was what it was it would have been nice to at least get some explanation from that damn enigmatic Oracle beyond "The powers of the One extend into the real world". Well, thanks a pantload Chet for more vague revelations. __________________________________________________ All in all, not much of a movie. Could have worked better if they'd left out the plot and the characters. What I found amusing was the lack of product placement. What happened? We didn't even get mobile phones. __________________________________________________ The nipple rings and S&M costumes were brought to you by "Azrael's House of Gothika". ;) [/QB][/QUOTE]
