I don't give a @#%$ about your acronyms.
Here's a question for all you Matrix-lovers: What was so wrong with living inside of the Matrix? Why is it different from reality? If you can see it, hear it, feel it, touch it, taste it, how is the actual reality any better than the false reality? Reality is how you perceive it to be. The argument could be made that without perception, nothing would exist. If that is true then isn't the Matrix exactly as "real" as reality?
I ask this because most people haven't thought through the fact that the philosophical ideas and questions presented in the Matrix movies were extremely basic materialist views that basically brushed off an idealist perspective (for instance: that thoughts and ideas are the only reality) with "Oh because there are rules and controls or something TIME FOR A FIGHT SCENE".
I think it could've been very interesting if the angle that the best way for man and machines to coexist is the Matrix was explored. If human beings inside the Matrix are happy, then what is the problem? Isn't human happiness the objective anyway?

Hell, Id rather know AND stay in the matrix, the whole bend it to my will and live in it thing...
Personally, I agree with Gash. It was a kickass setting, an interesting philosophical idea, just a bad plot and too much action.
You can never have too much action. (My opinion) But yeah I agree with Gash. Why not just stay? Who gives a @#%$ if the machines are using you for batteries as long as your happy?
The whole use people as batteries idea was stupid too, as well as the capability to be unplugged, yet still function. I would imagine there are just a few nerves one would have to cut to disable the body..
To anyone that thinks the Matrix should be taken with any level of seriousness...
