Zion is real, Neo is real, Anderson is virtual. Because Zion rescued Anderson from the virtual world and used the name of Neo to act as the core of the real world against the machine world. But in the process of fighting in the virtual world, his comrades all called him Neo, and only Smith called him Anderson. Smith's "wrong" program is the prerequisite for the machine to revolutionize itself. Anderson or Neo's program allows the machine to sublimate itself and possess the essence of human nature. Neo in the real world seems to have the abilities in the virtual world, and a series of problems such as the transformation of real people and virtual people can only be understood as "everything is possible" in 2199?.
For these trilogy, I still want to make some comments: First, the setting of machine-centered theory is too pessimistic about human development. Of course, this is also the place where the script shines; the second is the fault of Westerners, which always treats love. The connection with saving the world constitutes a causal relationship that is actually impossible in reality. Of course, this is science fiction, and it is also to show western values, and it can be understood; third, commercial considerations make the trilogy play a long time, and the play of the second part is indeed a little tired. Of course, I think it’s okay to have super-burning visual effects???
Let me talk about the core of the film or the core element of resistance. I think there are two: one is belief-the belief that you are born with and the belief that fights to the end; the other is the choice-"you have already made a choice, you are here to understand why you made this choice", The Prophet just told Neo to make choices from the heart, all choices are the result of nature, and the result of choice is also natural. We can't escape the constraints of the law of causality.
There is also the question of the distinction and choice between the real world and the dream world. When you are faced with the cruelty of the real world and the beauty of the virtual world, will you choose to plunge into the real world to fight for freedom? This is a cruel problem in itself.
Finally, I want to say that this is a great movie! -Prophetic thinking about the relationship between machines and people.
The above are preliminary thoughts after reading the trilogy, which may not be correct and will continue to be improved in the future.
