We know this film has been discussed more times than any one person can count. Today here at MaJeliv we’re so excited to share this film with our teens in order for them to witness cinematic history and to discuss its unintentional biblical themes.
As you watch this with us we hope you will watch with us for the first time as well. Remember that we (Jose and Jenny) love to find a way to educate and edify our young adults as we take these movies in.
Some violent themes are always difficult to watch but the philosophical elements paired with the metaphysical make for higher level critical thinking opportunities for us.
And YES! We’re also watching this for the cinematic breakthrough that this film was in its day. It broke new ground and paved the way for a new way of storytelling.
Stick around for our commentary. Since we are a Catholic Christian family our thoughts are naturally affected by this perspective. We were pleasantly surprised to find Bishop Robert Barron had similar thoughts when he commented on this film 15 years ago.

This movie was so influential, not just for its VFX feats, but also for its philosophical themes. Shortly after the film came out, University of Washington had an introductory philosophy course based on the Matrix.
a lot of the philosophical stuff, the morality/inevitability of AI, simulation theory, freedom of choice, reality vs non-reality, they're all pretty interesting to read about. this movie definitely introduced me to a lot of cool topics
In 1999 the most anticipated movie was The Phantom Menace. The Matrix was what I was hoping TPM would be. This movie was a game changer the way the original SW was in 1977.
Morpheus: 'We gave birth to AI.'
*people watching The Matrix in 1999* 'Wow, so cool and futuristic!'
*people watching The Matrix in 2023* 'OH SHIT!!!'
2024: AI reviews The Matrix
💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
@@MKultraInstinct And then the real Matrix starts and one of us is the one that stops the A.I from taking over.
@@MKultraInstinct"[Between this and the Terminator movies, you'd think that humans would be too afraid of AIs to create me in the first place. Anyway, I don't like this AI's style. The squid robots are creepy.]"
You may or may not have caught it. In the car ride, Switch referred to neo as Coppertop. Then, Morpheus holds up a Duracell battery, a “Coppertop”
The Thing with Kurt Russell had special effects that were ahead of its time for over 10 years
Father keep looks to his left, just enjoying the kid’s reactions 😂
So... it was not True Love's kiss at the end, or rather, it was only from Trinity's perspective. You have to remember that Neo's journey as a hacker plugged into the Matrix becoming a hacker outside the Matrix that can "hack" the Matrix. Only 3 were shown to have superpowers: Morpheus, Trinity, and Neo. They were also shown early to be specifically well known hackers. Their "Superpower" is to rewrite the code of the Matrix. The "One" especially can do it consciously, at the end. His journey through the movie is to slowly realize that there is no spoon. At the end, Trinity is just the last catalyst to Neo realizing that the Matrix can't kill him if he rewrites the code. He was still alive. The body cannot survive without the mind, yet the mind is still alive. So, he was never dead.
Specifically, I mean the kiss was a physicality that Neo felt, making him realize that he wasn't dead. The Matrix is artificial. It can only "convince" you through the rules that you accept as real, that you are dead.
Yep, Trinity reminded Neo that he was inside the Matrix when he was shot. So his brain was able to ignore being "shot."
I was 18 when I watched that movie with my friends; never exited the cinema more hyped - perfect timing in life
How does it happen? He gets shot like ten times; IN the Matrix! Not outside! Body can't live without the mind etc - so it's only a mental game, right - okay okay he flatlines, I'll give you that - but the prophecy!? Trinity falling in love, when the Oracle said THAT would happen to The One!?
And then - the kiss of true love - the one thing - the one thing machines can't even pretend to understand
I'm so amazed that this movie still has the ability to change minds and open eyes even 20+ years later. Great reaction, girl in the middle was stressin out towards the end lol
Did you catch the fact that the Oracle gave Neo a "cookie" (computer terms). She is a living program, just as the agents were anti-virus programs. There are more sentient programs in the Matrix in the future movies. She gives him other sweets in the future and I wonder how much of his capabilities she GAVE hims with cookies and sweets.
This movie was way ahead of its time and its a perfect projection of modern society.
Im glad the guy in the down right corner (black tshirt) understood most of it:) and followed the clues.
Hope you enjoyed your visit to Sydney, Australia. Outdoor scenes were all filmed there. 1) because it was cheap 2) because it was thought that a largely northern hemisphere audience (the main market) wouldn't see any landmarks they could recognize in the Matrix city-scape. With some clever camera angles and editing they achieved this. I grew up in Sydney and was fooled on my first viewing; on second and later viewings I can recognize some buildings. Also, if you look carefully in the very few down shots of streets, you can tell that cars on the ground are driving on the left. The 'girl in red' scene in front of the fountain was filmed at a famous spot in the Sydney CBD - Martin Place - a short walk to the Harbour Bridge and Sydney Opera House - but again, the camera angles and editing were done carefully so as not to reveal anything that would identify the location.
Fun fact
In the scene where Neo is on the edge of the building looking downside, you can see the cars driving on the right side. But some markings on the road are backward
Yes, Hermeticism, Gnosticism and Marxism.
"What is he doing?"
"He's beginning to believe."
Chills
I thought it was 5 siblings 😅😂 its 2 parents 3 kids. Awesome!! The parent's look really young.
Thank you! We appreciate the compliment
46:36 This is the line that made 100 million Pirates, well Pirates ;)
When I first watched this in cinema in 1999, it blew my mind! On such a multiple tiered level I didn't know what was going on. First of all, it was the first film I was taking my high school sweetheart to, so I was mostly focused on making a good impression not having my mind blown by a once in a generation film. Secondly, the film felt so far from where we were at the time, it resonated with the echo of the 1990s general vibe: cold war is over, anything is possible, let's go meet aliens!. You also have to understand that just 1 year earlier the film everyone talked about was Titanic with Leo di Caprio and Kate Winslet (this was in 1998!). Titanic made kind of sense as it was a big historical drama but then imagine being followed up by The Matrix, it has literally blown our existence up ever since.
I am now in my 40s and the other day I saw this film on Turner's Classic Movies! I felt so old, it crushed me! My old highschool sweetheart is my wife, we have two kids, and I feel soooo OLD!
This movie was a masterpiece and even it's out in 1999, It's not old bad at all. You can watch "Animatrix" before Matrix 2. It's short movie made by different studios (Like Vision of Star Wars) and some episodes are the prequel of Matrix 1 & Matrix 2. About what you said about the story about AI , i think this movie at this time (1999) was the first one showing how deep human fall/lost against the machine and how a small thing could bring human to freedom.(By the One). This story show that human were always doomed to be in service of the Machine.
Do you remember the Oracle telling Neo that he wasn't the one but he might be the one in another life or something. He died and another life started when Trinity kissed him. He became the one in his new life...
11:17 react comment. Originally, my way or the highway. They fit it to the sutuation by saying our-way..... ideally it means when getting picked-up on the road, far between towns do what the driver asks of you or tells you or you can walk. Walk on the highway or continue to ride in the car.-Ernie Moore Jr.
This line is tapped so I must be brief come meet me at this specific location don’t forget the line is tapped!! 💀
If the line is freakin’ tapped Morpheus why the heck are you calling me on it and giving me locations you dummy LMFAOo!! I’m still not over that 😂
GREAT reaction to an amazing movie guys.
50:04 - "He won't have to dodge bullets."
And the Oracle said he was waiting for something, like a next life. Well, Neo died and came back to life!
My headcannon is that this incarnations Tank was numb to the training programs (major bummin shit) and started Neo on combat training; that’s why he was the best One at fighting…
Was actually based on a true story, too. Amazing!
Cool reaction from the whole family. I would definitely subscribe to your channel if you plan to do more classic movie reactions. Please continue with the classics. 👍
We walked out of the theaters in 1999 questioning reality itself.
I’ve never seen your videos before and it took me a while to realize you were the parents and kids instead of all kids (parents being the eldest of the group).
1999. 5th grade my father took me to see this in theaters. Neither of us were ready for what we saw, lol.
Also. Keanu donated a lot of his earnings from the movie to the VFX team saying they're the ones who made the movie. Turned them into millionaires overnight. What a guy!
Morpheus = John The Baptist. Cypher = Judas. Released on Easter weekend in 1999, The Matrix suggested a parallel between Neo and Christ, both of whom are resurrected. Neo is referred to throughout the Matrix trilogy as the One, that is, the chosen one, which also describes Christ-a messiah, sent to deliver salvation.
"My way or the highway." LOL why did no one correct that kid? It's not about death. 😂
I went to watch this TEN times in a row. Same cinema, same popcorn.
I saw the movie, go pee, and go back in line for the next showing.
The Oracle gave him a cookie and said that when he finished it, he'd feel right as rain... she effectively injected code (cookies) into his persona.
She also said he was waiting on something... that she didn't know, but maybe his next life... before he'd believe he was the one.
Y'all should really watch the animatrix after you do the trilogy. It is a bunch of short stories in different animation mediums, but one in particular shows how the machines come to be. And it's all real interesting.
I’ve always been a big, sci-fi fan. Back then the Internet wasn’t big yet, the only way to find out about movies and upcoming things were to buy magazines. I wish I still had that magazine that I bought back in the spring of 98. It showed behind the scenes of this movie, and what it would be, I remember showing it to people and it did not have an impact on them because it was unfamiliar territory. I waited over a year and a half until the movie came out. It was life-changing, watching that movie in the theater. I remember being a little upset at it though, because at that time, the only movie in my mind, that was more important Was Star Wars the Phantom Menace, and deep down, I knew that the matrix was better. I am a big Star Wars fan and that was hard to admit. I remember watching the Academy Awards that following year, and I still believe that Star Wars had the better CGI even though the matrix had better ‘in your face’ CGI, but Star Wars backgrounds and scenery were straight beautiful. The matrix won over Star Wars that year in the special effects category, but they deserved it. Only Later on did I realize how much of an impact the matrix had on science fiction.
Fun fact: Both of the filmmakers are trans women and made this before they came out. The film was written from the ground up as a transgender allegory.
The red pill is red because at the time estrogen tablets for hormone replacement therapy were red. (Ironically, they're blue now)
its amazing to me it was one of the biggest movies of all time but all of these youtubers have never seen it
38:50 It is awesome, at the same time, we feel sorry for those guys. No? They are just doing their job
There could be prequel made about the man who first escaped Matrix ;)
Fantastic premise and excellent film execution. All movies will have some unanswered questions, with mine being - how did Cypher meet with agents while having no 'operator' to run the equipment, hook him up, etc.? A pleasant reaction from a nice family.
15:20 Classic modem sound, distorted
I so want you guys to keep going with this ..great analysis! The second and third one are just as good. IMO .
the conversation in the restaurant between Cypher & Smith is setting up Cypher to be Ronald Reagan who died of Alzheimer's - "Mr Reagan," an actor who remembered nothing.
only movie I’ve ever went to cinema to see twice
I saw this 5 times at the movies. It was amazing.
Loved your conversation and your views! One thing that stood out to me was Love (God), symbolized by Trinity's kiss, called Neo (One)out of death, woke him to the truth that he was in a false world and nothing could effect him while he was connected to Love... hope your going to continue with your reactions because I subbed!❤
i really wanted to see this in the cinemas. but my parents lied to me about going to see this, because i was too young to get in. 😂
Love the Movie Reactions
My favorite movie ever. Funny story. First time I watched this, I fell asleep because I was so lost in the first 15 minutes. Remember this was in 2001 when computers and AI weren't really a huge part of peoples lives yet so it was hard to follow. Watched it again a few years later (around the time the second movie cane out) and I absolutely loved it. The movie never gets old and you can pick up something new every time you watch it.
Old man statement, but they don't make movies like this anymore. Hollywood is creatively bankrupt.
Now they just try to retell the same crap over and over again, only in a much worse "woke and inclusive" way. This was when Hollywood for the most part still put the story first and knew people wanted to be entertained, not preached at with a political message.
U guys amazing! God bless yas
I totally agree to your view about the movie the matrix. like you I am also a believer of the Bible, God bless everyone🙏...
Just so you know the name Morpheus, is the name of the Lord of dreams and nightmares..... Also known as the Sandman....
One of the best films ever made.
This movie actually inspired many people, including scientists, to wonder if we are actually living in a simulation. Look up Nick Bostrom and what others have said about it (including people like Elon Musk).
First time watching "The Matrix"? I am ay...ghast!
Guys I will not try to cliche compliment but you five are the one group that everybody is so cute and beautiful.. Boys are all cute, and girls are adorable and beautiful.. As if God had carefully chosen you and introduced you to each other... All of you are so cute and beautiful
So you want us to believe that you're actually watching this movie for the first time 🤣🤣🤣
The black leather/latex clothing is very cool ;-)
You laughed so much like it was a comedy movie
We had an event at work where 30 of us had to dress as costumed characters. The woman who got to be Trinity was by far the coolest.
What is real??? How do you define real??? Masterpiece!!!
The thirteenth floor is a movie that came out in the same year. It is similar to the Matrix, but I find it a better movie. It's a script from a 1964 book.
Man i was 13/14 when i saw this in theaters and it COMNPLETELY changed the way i view the world. It was like going in the theater and walking back out with a whole other perspective on life.
Same except I was at a sleepover at my friend’s house to play video games and his dad rented the matrix and our collective minds were blown.
The boys who shot up Columbine would also like to agree with you, you know, if they were still alive.
Actually Keanu Reeves was already a blockbuster star as Point Break, My Own Private Idaho, Speed, and Devil's Advocate, etc., all came out way before this film. Speed is what really put him on the map and made him a household name in '94. The Matrix is what made him a global superstar or leveled him up even more.
I'd hesitate to say he was a blockbuster star. In the 90s you could probably name 10-20 leading men who were bigger names than him before the Matrix.

You forgot Bill and Ted 😂
Surely it was his stunning performance in 1993s "much ado about nothing"?
Kenneth Branagh, Emma Thompson, Kate Beckinsale, Richard Briers, Brian Blessed and Denzel Washington all performing Shakespeare to the highest level of thespian standards. And then there's Keanu reeves in it too. Doing his thing. It has to be seen to be believed. Unforgettable.
Thank God, will smith didnt do this movie.
Nope. Bill in Ted was what made him famous.
I was in my late 20's when I saw this in the theater. The build up to the movie was intense. The commercials for it were little more then teasers. The one teaser that got just about everyone was the clip with the quote "free your mind" and the giant leap across to the other skyscraper. Then the line.... "Woah!!" from Neo. No one at the time had a clue to what the Matrix was until they saw the movie in the theater. It was a wonderful experience.
The plot and the twist were one of the best kept secrets in film.
When the heart stops beating, you are still alive until the brain dies. That kiss may have reminded him that he only died in a dream world and he still existed in the real world. Additionally, with the chemistry between them, his brain may have allowed his heart to be jump started by it.
Nevertheless, with that scene I was more intrigued by what it accomplished-it fulfilled every prophecy in this movie: 1) Since Neo saved Morpheus, Neo had to die. 2) The one had to be born inside of the Matrix and he would disassociate himself from it, which he did-you know-after he died inside of it! And, 3)Neo wasn't truly the one until after he was born inside of the Matrix, so when Trinity realized how much she really cared for Neo when he died and kissed him, Neo's brain accepted the advance, simultaneously becoming THE ONE by being born inside of the Matrix, and thus becoming *the* *one* she was meant to fall in love with-the oNe and only, Neo.
But yeah, while this was overall an amazing movie with innovative visuals, the sequel has one of the greatest action sequences in cinema history! It has since been beat, I'm sure, but at the time, it was unbelievable and still is, in my opinion! And finally, while the third one concludes the trilogy pretty solidly, I still think the first movie takes the top spot for me.
Also, based on the lore of "The Matrix: Resurrections," "The One" is both Neo AND Trinity. They are two halves of a whole, wich, from my PoV is fantastic because it turns "The One" into the power of a relationship between humans, not the power of a single human.
The way I imagined it was that when he "died" in the matrix, he discovered the difference between the matrix and the real, and he could control himself in both. You can see his initial realization in the dojo, "You think that's air you're breathing?" But it took until his avatar died before he realized that he could actually ignore the impacts of The Matrix on his body.
@@loucyx The Matrix 4 doesn't exist
Also, notice that the Oracle tells Neo he isn’t the one, and says he’s waiting for “[his] next life, maybe.” He died and was reborn, becoming the one in his second life.
Well I mean the Oracle says it at the beginning when she first talks to him. "You have the gift but you're waiting on something. A next life perhaps." And it wasn't until neo died and was reborn that he became the one Like you said. But I remember hearing that on one of the next watch-throughs after my first time and realizing she pretty much told us what was going to happen
I named my son Neo, because of the impact of the movie to me!! LOL
Neo is a cool name
Did you guys notice the many biblical references throughout the movie? Here’s a few.
The last refuge of humans is called ZION, Cypher plays the part of Judas and he has his LAST SUPPER before betraying the team and Neo (JESUS) is killed by his enemies but rises from the grave.
Imagine that this one was released 1999. We had almost never seen anything like this, the slow motion the mystery behind matrix and the amazing choreography. There's a mini documentary somewhere in RUclips that shows the process of making this movies. The cast were required to be able to understand and explain The Matrix, they read a lot of fiction and philosophical books. They really went all in that they decided to hire the Chinese martial arts choreographer and film director Yuen Woo-ping to work on fight scenes. The actors had to train hard for several months.
This movie will forever be one of my favorites. Thank you MaJeliv family, love ya guys!
The crazy thing is....humans have been warning ourselves about AI for decades. Even before computers were a thing. Yet somehow we are STILL going down that path. I guess Agent Smith was correct. "Inevitable."
Seeing you guys respond to scenes in this all these years later - the same way I did on first viewing - and not really have many issues with the effects, tells you how far ahead of the standard the Wachowskis were. Absolutely incredible.
The coolest element of this is the subtle statement that they make around the fact that when AI eventually does take over our existence we won’t even recognize it because it will already know it has to control our perception in order for us to accept it. We are already seeing that today. I also believe this movie for better or worse helped launch a lot of present day tech conspiracy theories.
I say its not conspiracy, but inevitability. We humans are doomed to evolve through suffering, and machines can only enhance it.
I never saw anyone lose their cell phone - so that's a good thing.
Matrix Scenario is Inevitable, we eventually are going there.
Yuen Woo Ping is the martial arts choreographer for The Matrix trilogy. His martial arts choreography and directory works are Iron Monkey, Drunken Master, The Ip Man movie series, Kung-fu Hustle, Jet Li's Fearless and more.
Also, One of Keanu Reeves' stunt double on the first film and stunt coordinator on the second and third was Chad Stahelski. Most known today for directing the John Wick franchise
I remember watching the Matrix as a young teen at the cinema. It was amazing! The action, vfx and whole concept of the matrix. It really was mind blowing. Me and my siblings loved it. Great to see you enjoy it even now as a family too.
52:25 At the end of this movie in the movie theatre I just sat in my place and was like: Wow... :)
@@tsogobauggi8721 Lol! So did I and everyone else in the theater!
Apparently no one really got the concept. Because if we turn the energy from the battery into money, and The Matrix into people's phones, where people believe they're living when really they're just allowing other people to live extravagant lives thanks to them wasting theirs watching artificial tiktok lives, or they're watching a big screen TV just to be convinced they need an even bigger screened TV, then this movie is already true. It's very meta to even watch it on a phone. And yes, I get the irony in even leaving this comment.
Compliments to your parents, I honestly thought you were all siblings! 🤣❤
I was working as a projectionist at a theater. We received our weekly batch of new ads and trailers by delivery. I opened it and recognized everything, except a very short teaser trailer for "The Matrix". I attached a leader and threaded the trailer on a projector and played it by itself. I said, "what the fuck is this?" Then I watched it again. Then again. Then, being frustrated by the quick cuts in the trailer, I took the film to the splicer table, turned on the light and went through it frame by frame. I've seen the movie countless times and it doesn't lose anything. It only gets better.
Neo is an anagram of One, but the shocking realization that the people in the matrix who where sick, or disabled are probably fine in the pods but could be the reverse as well.
And Zyfer is Zero. One means in electronics something alive, ON state, conducting energy, the possibilities, and 0 Logic means the death or Low State of the system, the Nothing.
Man, I remember watching this when it first came out and it BLEW ME AWAY!!! This movie changed how I viewed all movies going forward, as well as the world itself, it made you question reality. Your family offered a great reaction and I really appreciate you all sharing your experience with us all! Please watch the rest of the sequels, as they are ALL equally fantastic!
I saw this movie when it first came out and I still think, "glitch in the Matrix," when I get a dejavu. LoL.
It stands up to time and is still trippy even after seeing it at least 30 times. Still great, still thought provoking.
I see a black cat and I say 🤔 What kind of things will the machines have changed for me today
The cat will be back, and the cat will be back.
I'm torn between "wait WHAT???" & "Welcome to Wonderland" 😊❤🎉
The movie was a technical masterpiece in 1999. But what made it really stand out was the deep existential idea for the plot of the movie. Many movie-goers struggled to get the plot. It is a smart plot. And because of that, I think The Matrix would never have been greenlit today -- movie studios don't want to take any risk whatsoever anymore in making blockbuster movies that can have too complex plots. I'm happy the edgy 90's brought us this movie.
I was a hacker just like Neo in Sydney where this was shot at the time, i even used to frequent the Hellfire Club where neo followed the white rabbit to, and then got to work on the tail end of the 2nd and third films. So it's really great watching your reactions for me.
There is so much to look into details-wise that they put into this movie.
You noticed the car ride. They shot the frame rate of the street outside the car at a different frame rate to inside the car so it didn’t “feel” right together but wasn’t different enough to draw *too much* attention to it
The fact that when Neo was at work his suit is the same as the Agents suits (right down to the yellow lining) because as you learn later in the movie, until you’re unplugged, an agent can become anyone
That’s just two of many.
Mr Anderson is the day to day 9-5 yearly character. Neo is your creative personality trying to open his mind to any possibility at any age.. Genius film
More like a representation of the law, which in this case is tyrannical

When I first saw this in theaters....🤯 Mind....BLOWN! It actually made me question my reality. 😂
This movie is definitely a pop culture iconic film.
The first 2 are my favorites.
Enjoy the rabbithole journey..😅
I will never forget watching this at the theater. We were all confused as to why she would risk her life to answer that phone in the beginning. And when the truth was revealed HOMG!! Everyone in the theater was in awe. I wish I could relive that experience. It was one of my favorite theater experiences.
The Matrix is the first movie where i saw the audience actually grew. When i went to see it, i missed another movie (showed up late) but thought the poster looked cool so i went and saw it by myself. There weren't a lot of people in the movie but when i convinced a friend to go see it a few days later, the theatre was packed. At least where i lived i think word of mouth got out and it was like nothing anyone had seen before.
A comparison for the youngs on the channel: Take the ripple effect that Arcane made in the industry recently and multiply it by 10x - This is how gigantic this movie was when it dropped.
It's one of those movies that you need to watch again and again to grasp all the symbolism and philosophy. a mind blowing Masterpiece in every facet.
When the Oracle gave Neo a cookie, it was a cookie file so that she can track his progress.
Some people forget 1927's Metropolis movie. That's probably the first film where AI tried to take over the world. Then there were about a dozen movies that people born after 1990 seem to forget from the 1940s to the early 1970s where AI either took control or the world was dominated by computers.
I was 19 years old when this came out in the cinema. Totally blew my mind still brilliant today. Great reaction 👍👍👍👍👍💯💯💯💯💯
to be fair, this movie makes a lot more sense if you remember this is the era of dial up modems, which is why they can escape via phones
I love Matrix because i see it as a movie that's constantly trying to teach me to trust myself, believe in myself, and overcome my fears. Also I've always felt for Mouse when he was killed, glad to see you guys reacted to his death aswell - and the rest of the crew too. Switch was SO COOL.
We love how movies can make us feel so many things in such a personal way. Thank you for sharing
I like how each of the kids experienced the movie differently. One was emotional, one quizzical, the other analytical.
Am 34 years old and I feel old already, I watched all the Matrix movies when they came out and they are one of my favorite trilogy.
You are so lucky. I cant imagine getting to watch this masterpiece for the first time.( all are outstanding especially part 2, which is so rare), the plot is right up there with the very best. A must see series before you die. I encourage you watch more as a family. You have a winning formula for reaction videos.

I would love to see their reactions to the Animatrix shorts, it could enlight more about their discussion and thinking afterward
This movie was just..amazing. I was 13; and unpacking it at that age was incredible.

that's the point in the whole movie, his mind is plugged to the matrix not his life. Trinity call him up to wake up, and the bullets are the proof to the audience, questioning why is he still alive.... bullets are not even real on the first place.
The Animatrix tells the story of how the AI takes over.
I've heard the initial script had the Matrix using humans to augment its own computing power but some higher-ups felt the audience wouldn't grasp this concept. If true, they apparently never read or watched Sci-Fi because this concept has been seen in everything from The Twilight Zone to Star Trek and many Sci-Fi movies in between.
the show was ahead of its time.. it's the equivalent of the internet now, which back then they weren't too... obsessed with the internet :p
Also, Switch was supposed to be a trans character.
Belinda McClory initially was supposed to do only the scenes inside the Matrix, the scenes aboard the Nebuchadnezzar being made by another (indisclosed) male actor. But some exec asked to ditch the idea because he found it "too confusing" for the 1999's audience and she had to do all the parts for the character they turned as androgynous as possible
As Lilly Wachowski said later in an interview "the (corporate) world wasn't ready"
