EP 71 : THE MATRIX - BREAKDOWN - MOVIES - PODCAST

[@anacharsis93]

If we all live in a simulated reality, then the simulation is actually real for us. David Chalmers has a great book on this.

[@RicardoSegarra]

@@anacharsis93 yes! I heard a little about this book. I should read it.

[@ThePanelBros]

@anacharsis93 Simulation theory is a rabbit hole I'm not sure I want to go down. 😉 - Anderson

[@jrpou]

I've so much enjoyed listening to you guys breaking down this amazing film scene by scene. Love your passion. Keep it up!

[@RicardoSegarra]

@@jrpou we are so glad you took a listen. The movie is awesome and we are glad to share that feeling with people.

[@ThePanelBros]

@jrpou This one was long overdue. Thank you so much for the listen. - Anderson

[@daviddavids2884]

there is one HUGE problem in the first movie. it would be impossible for cypher to have a secret meeting with smith, in the matrix.!!!!!

[@RicardoSegarra]

@@daviddavids2884 hmmm. That’s a good point!

[@ThePanelBros]

@daviddavids2884 Good point. The Wachoskis have hinted that this scene could be a flashback, way before Neo became a part of the crew. - Anderson

[@anacharsis93]

Interesting point, but why impossible? Because it would have been noticed by someone on the Neb? That would imply that the Neb freedom fighters were also involved in police state type monitoring, and that seems anathema to their world view. This does not seem like a plot hole to me...but I could be convinced

Before I saw this at the theater, the trailer I saw showed the bullet time shot and had Morpheus' "No one can be told what the Matrix is" quote. I still had no clue what it was about. My girlfriend at the time saw the poster as we passed the theater and said she wanted to see it. I was so impressed with it that I knew at that moment that I needed to watch this on DVD

[@RicardoSegarra]

DVD?! No theater watch? lol

[@avace917]

@RicardoSegarra read the first thing I said

[@RicardoSegarra]

@@avace917 whoops! Sorry haha. Forgive me, I was at work and distracted lol.

[@avace917]

@@RicardoSegarra it happens to me all the time

[@ThePanelBros]

@avace917 To this day, for me, The Matrix had one of the most intriguing trailers with the least amount of information. Of course, it more than delivered on the mystery. - Anderson
