Matrix:
Kabbalistic mind-porn…propaganda pre-empting and promoting a new Abrahamic mythological narrative.
One awakens into a “reality” which is another version of the inmter-subjective matrices.
Abrahamic symbolism is obvious.
The “problem of choice” nullified by “love”.
Neo, the Messiah, leading the woke flock to Zion, where hedonism is the equalizer. A multi-racial, multi-ethnic orgy; hippie commune.
Technology creating an artificial reality outside of which there is a desert of the real, a dystopian darkness maintaining the machinery of inter-subjectivty.
There is no free-will…all is part of the program. Choice leads to a rebooting not to an escape.
God is the architect, the devil is the oracle, participating in the machinations.
I like that you see to preempt is impossible & actually promotes by contrast.
I kinda wonder how they ever know they’ve legit exited the matrix (like Inception), or can legit trust any interaction to not be with a program. When programs become sentient, the line between human and AI vanishes.
Matrix Resurrections is evidence of how Hollywood, and the media, indoctrinate the masses with subtle, or not so subtle, stories full of innuendoes and symbolisms, repeated until they become self-evident “truths” over time.
Which “masquerading as self-evident” truth(s) in the movie do you … determine to be … what … false? What’s your complaint? Are you accusing them of … art?
Haven’t seen the movie, but from reviews, the lie that males and females are interchangeable…that reality is a collective construct…
Going from the past movies…the Zion is a place of “liberation” - salvation…that “choice” is either an illusion or a flaw…that a new messiah is awaited to save mankind…all straight out of Abrahamism.
That white heterosexual males are agents of the system, whereas ethnic types are rebels liberating minds form it - Paternalism.
If you admittedly haven’t seen it, please don’t take it personally if I ignore you. Unless you’re using “seen” weirdly. In which case I don’t see your reply.
They portrayed Merovingian as a raving lunatic, dirty homeless bum…
Everything good about the Matrix Trilogy was completely removed, with nothing to replace it.
There were several opportunities to present a ‘new’ story, anything remotely compelling or interesting, but just… no imagination or creativity in this.
They could have talked about the new Sentient AI who were inspired by Neo’s death, and rebelled.
They could have talked about AI factions fighting other AI factions after The Matrix series.
They could have talked about previous or the new iteration, Recompiled “7th” version of The Matrix.
They had lots of opportunities, yet, failed them all.
Urwrong… Now you done triggered me. Make your own movie & talk about those things.
What did you think about Doogie… the therapist? What were they saying through that character?
What do you think about the new Mr. Smith? Wasn’t it fricken awesome when he (SPOILER ALERT) checks the therapist?
Back to the therapist. What’s up with letting the therapist (symbolic of media/political/etc manipulation, abuse of power, etc) live despite all the insane crap he was in on that resulted in SO many suicides reminiscent of 9/11 building jumpers?… how did Neo survive being a jumper?? This is deep. Discuss.
To add to my complaints in the OP… what are they trying to say in blaming the therapist for using unrequited/unrequitable love on purpose? They are NOT saying anything about gender. Not even when they talk about binary… or non-binary… unless I missed something.
Why do folks act like I have reactance disorder lol? I want to read it. If it will be accessible online I hope you will at least drop a link here. But why wait?
