Also instead of Neo Jesus, when he kills the squiddies outside of the matrix, that should've been because they were still in there but Zion and co didn't realise there was another layer to go.
Instead we got Revolutions.
This is what I thought was going to happen at the end of 2 and was so excited I had to watch 3 right away. I was disappointed.
It's easier to explain, he had WiFi connection to the matrix/machines.
Disagree, the "another layer" thing would be extremely lazy writing.
And "Neo has actual superpowers for no reason" wasn't?
What do you mean "no reason"? IMO it was executed and explained well.
Neo having super powers in the matrix was explained. Not how he had them in "real life".
It was because he's connected to the machine network and he has some limited interfacing with them. He could trigger their destroy sequence or whatever.
At least that's what I remember, haven't seen it for a while.
Unless... there is always another layer because different people require different illusions... and therefore there is no escape from the Matrix...
Depends on how it's done. What little EU there was for The Matrix does have it as a thing that a small percentage of redpills go crazy, thinking that Zion is just another layer of the matrix. The Oracle being another part of the system of control would also be on brand for the machines and would work well with the Architect's bit about how if he's the father of the matrix then she is its mother.
I kinda just assumed that was how it was meant to be interpreted and the other stuff was just crappy writing. The mention that Zion had been destroyed multiple times kinda implied it was just another matrix.
