Shoulda hit Neo with a “stop trying to hit me and hit me” for the bit tho

In terms of the fighting itself wasnt convincing but I get its purpose of Neo having to learn how to fight again after earlier in the movie trying Kung Fu in his house and failing

I feel like the meta stuff will hit harder on second watch

It do
like much much harder when you know where its going with it

He goes from working at MetaCortex- Transcending the boundaries of the brain

to

Deus Ex Machina-god from the machine

Neo is a God from the Machine when you see the ending of the movie

After Morpheus takes the red pill He calls him Agent White

So I bet you are wondering what Agent white is

Agent White is the code name for a herbicide used by the U.S. military in its herbicidal warfare program during the Vietnam War. The name comes from the regulatory requirements of identifying each container of the various herbicides through the addition of colored stripes. Orange, purple, blue, and white were colors used by the manufacturers to ensure that the contents were easily identifiable in shipment and use. Colors were selected by the U.S. government. Largely inspired by the British use of herbicides and defoliants during the Malayan Emergency, it was one of the so-called "rainbow herbicides".

When Bugs and Morpheus are escaping and running away they run out of a theater showing "The Root of All Evil featuring Lito Rodriguez"

Lito Rodriguez is character in Sense8 who plays a Gay Actor

So yes they run through an episode of Sense8 again alluding to the fact that Neo is Lana Because they are running through his game world

Obvious but when we immediately see Neo Clubbed to death is playing which in Matrix 1 played during the bank heist shoot out

Neo has a Batman figure

and yes I am at work getting paid triple to rewatch the Matrix

LOL when asked is this old matrix code he gets a text and it says "budget meeting at 4pm"

In the coffee shop while his nerd says " are we all just algorithms " you see old neo in reflection of table

As soon as his friend says destiny Trinity walks in with kids

His friend says "I am a geek I was raised by machines"

Which again is a throwback because he says binary raised him and changed his life. The Machine partially being video games

His friends name is Jude Gallagher

"According to all four canonical gospels, Judas betrayed Jesus to the Sanhedrin in the Garden of Gethsemane by kissing him and addressing him as "rabbi" to reveal his identity in the darkness to the crowd who had come to arrest him. His name is often used synonymously with betrayal or treason."

After Jude says "wow didnt see that coming" to the name tiffany she says my mom loved Audrey Hepburn

This is a reference to Breakfast at Tiffanys

"Breakfast at Tiffany's is a 1961 American romantic comedy film directed by Blake Edwards, written by George Axelrod, adapted from Truman Capote's 1958 novella of the same name, and starring Audrey Hepburn as Holly Golightly, a naïve, eccentric café society girl who falls in love with a struggling writer. It was theatrically released by Paramount Pictures on October 5, 1961, to critical and commercial success."

the struggling writer being neo

Everyone calls me Tiff

"Tag Image File Format, abbreviated TIFF or TIF, is an image file format for storing raster graphics images, popular among graphic artists, the publishing industry,1 and photographers. TIFF is widely supported by scanning, faxing, word processing, optical character recognition, image manipulation, desktop publishing, and page-layout applications.2 The format was created by the Aldus Corporation for use in desktop publishing. It published the latest version 6.0 in 1992, subsequently updated with an Adobe Systems copyright after the latter acquired Aldus in 1994. Several Aldus or Adobe technical notes have been published with minor extensions to the format, and several specifications have been based on TIFF 6.0, including TIFF/EP (ISO 12234-2), TIFF/IT (ISO 12639),35 TIFF-F (RFC 2306) and TIFF-FX (RFC 3949).6

In the beginning, TIFF was only a binary image format (only two possible values for each pixel), because that was all that desktop scanners could handle. As scanners became more powerful, and as desktop computer disk space became more plentiful, TIFF grew to accommodate grayscale images, then color images. Today, TIFF, along with JPEG and PNG, is a popular format for deep-color images.
"

The two possible values in this case being the old trinity in reflection and her real inner soul

Later in the movie Smith says "are the piercing blue eyes too much "

Trinity Carrie Ann Moss also has blue eyes

The title change got me dead Lmaoo the movie isn’t good it really isn’t deep. You’re not smarter than us for liking a bad movie

this s*** was f***ing garbage

I was high out my mind watching this and thought it was cool

But definitely need a rewatch

read thread title

@twitch discuss here I am tired of spoiler tagging

Word. But yeah someone suggesting the film should of had better visuals doesn’t mean they misunderstood it
