For an exposition dump, it has a talented enough actor and good enough effects to be engaging, but it isn't good exposition, it's a dump of exposition. Metropolis (the movie that both The Matrix and Dark City ape in terms of themes and style) by Fritz Lang has a masterclass in exposition using visuals and music cues to create and exposit a world unlike anything else ever seen before on film. Hell, even Dark City does a far superior job at expositing about its world without dumps (until the mini-dump by Kiefer Sutherland at the end).
And now they're going to recast him, or remove his character entirely. Ironically, he's the only character that survived the original trilogy. The new one is gonna blow ass.
@@Deadener I have a feeling they're just gonna remove him entirely, because the story ties in with The Matrix: Online, which is something I never really liked the idea of. It feels like you lose a lot of details if you don't play it.
The brainwashing through media is the matrix. We watch this while we think it is something else is the matrix. This is it. Being told how to think rather than live in reality. All of this KS a psyop.
The craziest thing is, everyone in the cast was supposed to read giant book on nihilism and philosophy - Lawrence Fishburne was the only one who didn't read it. There might be more to it, but this was what I remember. His acting is just slightly different than others because he didn't read this massive philosophical thing, and yet he nonetheless made this entire movie next level, and it may have unintentionally worked to this trilogy's advantage.
I partly think that it was partly because of all of what Morpheus was telling him in this video, I think it overwhelmed Neo. I mean, when you think of it, everything up to however old Neo was at the time of when they freed him, Neo realized was one giant lie made up by a computer program, that's a lot to take in.
I always found the loading construct intro so cool. You expect to hear echoes, footsteps or ambient sounds other than their voices, but there is nothing. Even Morpheus sunglasses have no reflection at first because it hasn’t rendered yet. Only when Neo interacts with the chair or when the tv turns on you hear sound effects.
With this being arguably my favorite movie ever, I have never noticed the sunglasses' reflection not rendered yet. They are all black in his first face shot, only in his next face shot do you start seeing reflections. That's such a cool find!
Wow they cared even for such small details! In Revolutions however, in the last fight between Neo and Smith, in the glasses of the latter you could see... the studio lights
This is a philosophical masterpiece. Questioning reality to this uncomfortable yet fascinating degree. What is real? How much am I in control and when am I the one being controlled? We watched this movie a couple of times in philosophy class and the discussion we had in class were some of the best lessons I had in school.
@nickys34 I don't think so, the Matrix represents being of the world, Jesus told us we were in the world but not of the world. The Matrix is based on a lie, Jesus broke the lies, but again some people choose the blue pill, which i believe leads to sin if you look it in a christian way
I remember seeing this as a kid and never understood what this all meant. I was into the action and chaos. Understanding this for the first time in 20 YEARS IS MIND-BLOWING!
I saw this for the first time when I was 7 years old. I didn't understand a goddamn thing but I was absolutely amazed. The visuals and atmosphere are incomparable.
The way Morpheus unapologetically states the way things really are in this scene, without sympathy or any restraint, unfolding all of this horror, that in my opinion is what make this scene so memorable.
This is the most iconic and revolutionary cinematographic scene of at last three decades, at least. Still ahead of all in 2021. It gives me the chill every time like the first time.
It's the blankness. The best depiction ever of 'tabula rasa'. Whatever you though you knew, wipe the slate clean. Start completely from the very beginning again.
The look on Neo's face at 3:57 when he finally realized what the Matrix is ....just superb acting by Keanu Reeves... you can feel his panic at the sudden realization that his whole life is a lie...
Just like Star Wars...hence why episodes 4,5,6 were made 1st because the creator believed the technology would improve years later for his vision for episodes 1,2 & 3.
What's also interesting is the reason they named the character Morpheus. In Greek mythology Morpheus is the god of sleep and dreams and he would appear to mortals in their dreams and be a messenger of the gods and communicate divine messages to sleeping mortals. So in a way Morpheus is telling Neo he's been living in a "dream" world and is in fact asleep in the real world and everything in this "dream" is not real.

You should have said "imagine you suddenly wake up & realize that you're 85 years old" instead... it's infinitely more psychologically traumatizing to have most of your life stolen from you than to be forced a do-over.

The funny thing is that with AI tech on the rise, is that Morpheus's line "We marveled at our own magnificence as we gave birth to AI" fits humans today since so many people are using AI for so many things like writing papers, doing art, and even voice generation.
meh we program ai we train ai with human data, until we create self aware ai we are safe, it will take centuries if not a millennia for ai to be that advanced
@@nobytes2 Indeed. We as humans are the only limitation an AI could ever have, and we are very limited beings. There would not ever be such a thing as sentient autonomous AI as long as the human mind remains too limited beyond the scope of what a human being can achieve. It can achieve what we do better, but can only achieve what we do still.
Neo’s panic response to learning the truth is what more horror/suspence/apocalyptic movies need. It creates true immersion: how someone may act if faced with something unbelievable and horrific.
I remember my brother and his gf taking me to see this when I was 12... it blew my mind and still does. I had so many questions after the movie and all the answers kept blowing my mind as well. They don't make movies like this anymore.
“The Matrix is a prison for the mind…designed to turn a human being into [a battery]” "The body cannot live without the mind" Morpheus 4:09 (The Matrix)
jesus christ this movie is perfect, the fact they made a revolutionary blockbuster action movie AND a philosophical masterpiece at the same time is one of the coolest things ever to me... its so good that im not gonna watch the sequels cause ik they wont live up to this
I love this scene but it always pains me to know the studio dumbed it down: my understanding is that the original script had the machines using humans for processing power, not batteries. But the studio thought the average movie goer wouldn't understand. Still, incredible scene.
I think it's safe to say just about anyone would react this way upon the realisation that the world they thought they knew has actually been turned into a hell hole. Neo's reaction is a perfect blend of not just disbelief but also shock, panic, anger and horror.
4:25 i had the exact same feeling when i went to college, outside of the public school system. theres some things you wish you never learned you realize you might, just to actually survive. its an odd realization but once you pair it with a few history classes and texts on futurism, you kinda go bonkers for a few hours.
The scary part about this is we don't even know if its already happened to us in Real Life right now.. and the Movie could have been made by The Matrix itself to let some of us aware of the situation.. to set some of us Free.

Having an actor who has a voice that is so beautiful, well spoken and deep as Lawrence's, really helps sell the whole scene. Lawrence has the kind of voice suitable to narrate anything, even a nature documentary, and make it sound beautiful and interesting. His cool appearance, his cold factual delivery of such well written lines is a powerful combo. Because the lines it gets to deliver are incredible: "What is real? How do you define real? If you are talking about what you can feel, what you can smell, taste and see then real is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain." That was the kind of thing that blew audience minds back in 1999. The kind of thing that makes you raise a hand and go: "Now wait hang on a sec..... [thinks about this]..... Oh shit >_> ... O_O whoaa.. " To top that off, the excellent mixed emotions acting of Neo as he listens to everything explained to him, and the incredible visuals of the scene as everything is explained. Like the absolute stark white room they start off in, moving through the TV, the visions of the real world, a human as a battery, etc. This scene is cinema history. One of the finest moments of movie making.
matrix 99 was a stylistic master piece, great visuals, atmosphere, action and special fx and of course the music. After watching matrix 4, I sat on a bench outside the theater like sad keanu for a few mins, overwhelmed by disappointment.
i figured "Matrix Ressurections" was a diversion tactic to distract us from all the talk and discussion people were having surrounding the aggressive emergence of "AI" this decade. You confirmed it, and I am glad I have yet to allow the 4th installment to ruin the nostalgia I get from watching the original every time. Thanks.
When I was about 13 watching this my mind was blown at the concept. We are marvelling at the birth of AI as we speak, seeing what it can do, how far it can go.
I love how supportive the team is with neos reaction. They’ve all been there. How could you not have a straight up panic attack after leaning the truth is that horrifying.
Works for the movie, makes no sense. You don’t dump all the information in one go, you go slow and let the person ask questions. Unless it was a stupid test to see how Neo will handle it.
@@windanwomp yes, I heard about that and it's real science too. Part of quantum mechanics. If there is an observer, the waves turn into a particles and behave differently. I heard of an atheist becoming a Christian because of this and other things.
Hello. I score films with beats. I'm a huge Matrix fan and I just wanted to share my rendition of The Matrix with you. ruclips.net/video/j1VFMmtHNKI/видео.html
This is one of the best sequences in the history of Science Fiction movies. The only change I wished they would have made was the line "combined with a form of fusion". Beautifully done. Having experienced a similar horrifying shocking reality myself, Neo's mental breakdown was right on point.
with all that virtual technology, I'm sure Morpheus and friends sometimes load sex simulation program with all their desires and fetishes, you know to relieve their stress because they live in a tough world.
@Vadim Kovalenko of course you are, the Woman In Red is heavily implied to be a sex program that Mouse made. They are still humans, and as humans, sex is a real need. Therefore it would make sense that in particularly long engagements or what have you, they would want to crank one out. What better way to do it than using the Matrix?
But a free lunch from radio shack is just a figmemt of loneliness a lie to rely on as worthless pleasure the irony of love isnt free it takes work but yes it would be interestinging to have what you want but freewill I would want as well still an illusion bit why not thedate of a regular person in the matrix just as boring and enslaved inopen minded stuck so why not I guess trainng to that social standpoint to have better practice towards the real thing
I get the feeling that if you'd awoken from a virtual prison you'd been in your entire life, and the existence of that prison represented the enslavement of your entire race, would give you a different perspective on gaining pleasure from virtual reality simulations. I know I'd feel a little weird about it. After all, the Matrix still exists and the pleasures of that world are still open to them, but it's only Cypher we see enjoying virtual steak.
I remember when I first saw this scene at the movie theater and getting goosebumps.... With Metaverse now at its birth the Matrix doesn't seem so much like a sci-fi movie anymore....
having seen all of the Matrix movies (including Resurrections, unfortunately) and the John Wick movies, "Always Be My Maybe", "Constantine" and not even including the tons of other movies Reeves has been in, I think he really is a great actor.

Really nice audio mixing in this scene. The dead, but resonant sound of the construct. The imposing SFX of the desert of the real, with the added reverb. As Morpheus delves further and further into his explanation, his voice seems to gain heaviness, and so does everything else.

The funny thing is that with AI tech on the rise, is that Morpheus's line "We marveled at our own magnificence as we gave birth to AI" fits humans today since so many people are using AI for so many things like writing papers, doing art, and even voice generation.
The powers that be are 25 years ahead of us at all times. As of right now, they are living in 2048.
meh we program ai we train ai with human data, until we create self aware ai we are safe, it will take centuries if not a millennia for ai to be that advanced
not exactly so
@@nobytes2 Indeed. We as humans are the only limitation an AI could ever have, and we are very limited beings. There would not ever be such a thing as sentient autonomous AI as long as the human mind remains too limited beyond the scope of what a human being can achieve. It can achieve what we do better, but can only achieve what we do still.
Aliens already USE us as batteries!! Wake up is a metaphor
Neo’s panic response to learning the truth is what more horror/suspence/apocalyptic movies need. It creates true immersion: how someone may act if faced with something unbelievable and horrific.
All jokes aside, Keanu Reeves looks breathtaking even without the magnificent facial hair

The Matrix isn't a science fiction film. It's a DOCUMENTARY.
When Keanu actually shows facial expression, he's a proper beast.
O think Keanu had some healthy/mental problem, a trauma, because he get worse a Lot.
Underrated actor.
He almost acts in this trilogy 😅😅😅
jesus christ this movie is perfect, the fact they made a revolutionary blockbuster action movie AND a philosophical masterpiece at the same time is one of the coolest things ever to me... its so good that im not gonna watch the sequels cause ik they wont live up to this
You definitely should watch part 2 and 3
Reloaded is the best one imo. It's definitely got the best dialogue.
This whole scene is so timeless.
This movie is a timeless masterpiece.
So evidently, the Matrix is apparently 90% of where all television ads take place.

Well noticed , the directors are making a bold statement about the system
Yep, we watch Nostalgia Critic, too.
Hello Karen , Frank Castle here
And the mainstream media
I love this scene but it always pains me to know the studio dumbed it down: my understanding is that the original script had the machines using humans for processing power, not batteries. But the studio thought the average movie goer wouldn't understand. Still, incredible scene.
Well that changed the movie completely 🤣
That sounds more interesting as using people as batteries when you could just use the components foods or something more efficient instead annoys me
How do you know that
What does that mean using humans to process power? That inself sounds like using humans as a battery.

Morpheus would nail a TEDx Talk
I think it's safe to say just about anyone would react this way upon the realisation that the world they thought they knew has actually been turned into a hell hole.
Neo's reaction is a perfect blend of not just disbelief but also shock, panic, anger and horror.
Come to Minneapolis. You will see horror….Lib horror
@@OFCbigduke613 What the actual fuck are you talking about?
4:25 i had the exact same feeling when i went to college, outside of the public school system. theres some things you wish you never learned you realize you might, just to actually survive.
its an odd realization but once you pair it with a few history classes and texts on futurism, you kinda go bonkers for a few hours.
Arguably one of the greatest sci-fi scenes of all-time!
Except that the scene was not fiction.
We marvel at our own magnificence as we give birth to A.I....🤔
The scary part about this is we don't even know if its already happened to us in Real Life right now.. and the Movie could have been made by The Matrix itself to let some of us aware of the situation.. to set some of us Free.

You late this movie is 2,000 yrs old. Lmso! It just so happens to come to a theater near you today.
It's funny how everybody is genuinely concerned about Neo's mental breakdown, except for Cypher, who is just "he's gonna pop ( •-•)"
Cypher is the original incel. Was gonna kill everyone in Zion because his crush liked another guy better.
@@mynameisrandy More like he was sick of living on the edge every day--eating goop, being subordinate to a man who acted like a religious zealot, unloved by the woman he cared about. The truth is, Cypher "popped"--he snapped.
@@formeraxe117 Love ≠ obsession
@@TemperedMedia It didn't start that way.
@@mynameisrandy thats not want incel means. Its also a overused meaningless word used any chance to insult a man but never used if the same context is a woman.
Having an actor who has a voice that is so beautiful, well spoken and deep as Lawrence's, really helps sell the whole scene. Lawrence has the kind of voice suitable to narrate anything, even a nature documentary, and make it sound beautiful and interesting. His cool appearance, his cold factual delivery of such well written lines is a powerful combo.
Because the lines it gets to deliver are incredible:
"What is real? How do you define real? If you are talking about what you can feel, what you can smell, taste and see then real is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain."
That was the kind of thing that blew audience minds back in 1999.
The kind of thing that makes you raise a hand and go: "Now wait hang on a sec..... [thinks about this]..... Oh shit >_> ... O_O whoaa.. "
To top that off, the excellent mixed emotions acting of Neo as he listens to everything explained to him, and the incredible visuals of the scene as everything is explained. Like the absolute stark white room they start off in, moving through the TV, the visions of the real world, a human as a battery, etc.
This scene is cinema history. One of the finest moments of movie making.
Damn...
I never understood a SINGLE thing in this movie back then
Now, listening to it is so interesting because I can understand it
welcome to matrix
Same.. I had to grow up and get some experience to understand it

Shit just blew my mind watching this as an adult.
Human logic: it's solar powered. The sun has to go..
it was a desperate action.
that sounds like a desition a Trump would make.
Yep, pack that fucker up. Shove the sun in the box and throw it in the basement until it comes back into fashion
sounds something like the republicans would do
There’s always people who feel the need to bring politics into fucking everything.
matrix 99 was a stylistic master piece, great visuals, atmosphere, action and special fx and of course the music.
After watching matrix 4, I sat on a bench outside the theater like sad keanu for a few mins, overwhelmed by disappointment.
@Tyler Braden I give up on dumb movies period they all cash grabs no matter effin what
I saw matrix 4, usually when i watch a movie i don’t fall asleep.
You need to rewatch the matrix 4 love it... Matrix movies always take few watch before you really really understand and love the story and philosophy
If you don't understand the first movke and it's relation to real life you definetly won't understand the fourth movie
i figured "Matrix Ressurections" was a diversion tactic to distract us from all the talk and discussion people were having surrounding the aggressive emergence of "AI" this decade. You confirmed it, and I am glad I have yet to allow the 4th installment to ruin the nostalgia I get from watching the original every time. Thanks.
Lawrence Fishburn was so good in this film. Really good
Neo's raw, visceral reaction was the perfect cap to this scene. Superb film.
When I was about 13 watching this my mind was blown at the concept. We are marvelling at the birth of AI as we speak, seeing what it can do, how far it can go.
AI is still a program that isn't alive
Yet...
As we speak? But we are not speaking
Matrix 1: "What is the Matrix?"
Matrix 4: "What the fuck are we even doing?"
It's a story of occult initiation. They all make sense through that lens.
Matrix 5: Are we still doing this?
I love how supportive the team is with neos reaction. They’ve all been there. How could you not have a straight up panic attack after leaning the truth is that horrifying.
Morpheus was a tad dramatic for introducing such a PTSD inducing reality. No wonder Neo had a nervous break down.
lol seriously. Take off the glasses and give the man a beer. Maybe have him take a seat.
You can tell Morpheus gets a kick out of this.
Morpheus knows what he's doing...
@@bluesummers5051 It's the best part of his job...
Works for the movie, makes no sense. You don’t dump all the information in one go, you go slow and let the person ask questions. Unless it was a stupid test to see how Neo will handle it.
Poor Morpheus! Bald in the real and Matrix world..
Lawrence Fishburn looks more badass as a bald guy
It just goes to show that he has a very clear and honest perception of who he is.
He’s quite confortable with his appereance, as he said, he could have loaded him long hair
Yea but if he had dreads or long hair who would take him serious lol.

Really makes you think..... *what if.* 😨
Look up the double slit experiment. Research shows electrons behave differently when they are observed
I had that exact feeling after watching it the first time
It really makes you question reality
@@windanwomp yes, I heard about that and it's real science too. Part of quantum mechanics. If there is an observer, the waves turn into a particles and behave differently. I heard of an atheist becoming a Christian because of this and other things.
I’m sure the matrix wouldn’t make the word shut a shit place if that was the case.
My favourite movie of all time... The concept
This scene of a movie you're watching right here right now is a documentary, it's crazy how this piece is still relevant today.
For a 90s film, holy shit, it's way ahead of its time.

The part towards the end where Neo is so shocked at what he is hearing that he freaks out, this part makes me cry
This is one of the best sequences in the history of Science Fiction movies. The only change I wished they would have made was the line "combined with a form of fusion". Beautifully done.
Having experienced a similar horrifying shocking reality myself, Neo's mental breakdown was right on point.
Say more
with all that virtual technology, I'm sure Morpheus and friends sometimes load sex simulation program with all their desires and fetishes, you know to relieve their stress because they live in a tough world.
@Vadim Kovalenko of course you are, the Woman In Red is heavily implied to be a sex program that Mouse made. They are still humans, and as humans, sex is a real need. Therefore it would make sense that in particularly long engagements or what have you, they would want to crank one out. What better way to do it than using the Matrix?
Agree
Not a need get yes I get your drift
But a free lunch from radio shack is just a figmemt of loneliness a lie to rely on as worthless pleasure the irony of love isnt free it takes work but yes it would be interestinging to have what you want but freewill I would want as well still an illusion bit why not thedate of a regular person in the matrix just as boring and enslaved inopen minded stuck so why not I guess trainng to that social standpoint to have better practice towards the real thing
I get the feeling that if you'd awoken from a virtual prison you'd been in your entire life, and the existence of that prison represented the enslavement of your entire race, would give you a different perspective on gaining pleasure from virtual reality simulations. I know I'd feel a little weird about it. After all, the Matrix still exists and the pleasures of that world are still open to them, but it's only Cypher we see enjoying virtual steak.
I remember when I first saw this scene at the movie theater and getting goosebumps....
With Metaverse now at its birth the Matrix doesn't seem so much like a sci-fi movie anymore....
Makes you wonder if that's where Suckerborg got the idea from. 😳
It’s a documentary movie. Not a science fiction
having seen all of the Matrix movies (including Resurrections, unfortunately) and the John Wick movies, "Always Be My Maybe", "Constantine" and not even including the tons of other movies Reeves has been in, I think he really is a great actor.

Really nice audio mixing in this scene. The dead, but resonant sound of the construct. The imposing SFX of the desert of the real, with the added reverb. As Morpheus delves further and further into his explanation, his voice seems to gain heaviness, and so does everything else.
