The Matrix

A movie that has good concept and philosiphy, but was overrated by special effects and political attention.

The matrix is a computer system that makes up for a false conscousness for people, brainwashing them into believing anything they want. This sums up for all the real psychics, clarvoyants, and telekenis-enabled people, they have simple overcome certain elements of the matrix.

Compare to academia

Time Cube shows us that acedamie exists only to brainwash humans with word god.

The Matrix

a)A movie trilogy that could be described as Lord of the Rings meets Star Wars meets Terminator meets anime meets a whole lot of philosophical mumbo jumbo and with some greek/christian themes thrown in the mix. Oh yeah sprinkle with some flying kung fu and slow motion shooting. A kickass movie, but instead of getting better as it went along, it got a bit worse (yet still kickass).

b)A great movie consisting of a pasty white guy and a magic negro. (lol)

a)I went to see the Matrix, and it was kickass, and it made me think a little... naw i'm just kidding it was just kickass.

b) magic negro: No one can tell you what The Matrix is, you must find out yourself.
pasty white guy: I know kung fu!

matrix

The nearly omni-present curtain of illusion, obfuscation and confusion created by the intelligence community, intelligentsia, and invisible ruling elite (Illuminati) to hide the truth, their source of power. It is similar to Maya and Mega-Babel (a.k.a., "Babylon the Great"). It also possesses connotations of Mother worship.

The Matrix

Term used to describe the philosophic concept/idea that reality as we perceive it is not the 'true reality', but a shared make-belief acting as a layer to shield off true reality. Usually this make-belief reality, or virtual reality, is controlled by a malicious entity.

The concept stems from (Christian) Gnosticism, which resolved around the idea that we live in a world that isn't true, and that's created by a malicious god. The goal of gnostics is to break free from this world (and hence gain control of it).

The influence of Plato's cave allegory is clear in both gnosticism and the Matrix-movie, but with the significant difference that Plato's cave allegory meant was meant to embody the idea that reality as we perceive it is merely the shadow of the true reality, aka the world of ideas.

Woa, so gnosticism basically comes down to us being in the Matrix?

the matrix

The act of ruining an awsome movie by making two more pointless sequels just to make more money on the box office.

The Matrix was an awsome movie, but Matrix Reloaded and Revolution both sucked major nuts.
