The Matrix
    #8162487 - 03/18/08 02:29 PM (15 years, 11 months ago)

Im watching The Matrix trilogy right now, and im seeing alot of metaphors and symbolism. Anyone else see the connection between the "matrix" and our societies Culture? Seems like our culture is a matrix.

Our system has people plugged in, and the connection between older people in the matrix being harder to awaken, and they have a hard time letting go. Seems like older people in our system that totally rely on how it works, and don't even WANT to see reality.

It's actually a pretty damn cool trilogy to watch with that in mind instead of the college kids who just watch for the fighting.

Of course im sure the 1st film is probly alot more deep than the rest if i remember, but it's still cool as shit :smile:

Watch The Second Renaissance I and II on the Animatrix DVD if you haven't seen it yet. Tells the whole back-story of how the matrix came to exist.

Heh, I thought the most common comparison was drawn between The Matrix and Plato's Allegory of the Cave.
