I have come to the conclusion that I may be slightly obsessed with The Matrix Trilogy.
The Matrix is most definitely my favourite movie of all time, not just because I have a crush on Keanu Reeves, but because of how much it makes me think. I find that The Matrix inspires so much thought about technology, the way society is becoming and ultimately, how we perceive the world around us.
Morpheus: "Have you ever had a dream, Neo, that you were so sure was real? What if you were unable to wake from that dream, Neo? How would you know the difference between the dreamworld and the real world?"
Agent Smith: "I'd like to share a revelation that I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species. I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment, but you humans do not. You move to an area, and you multiply, and multiply, until every natural resource is consumed. The only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet, you are a plague, and we are the cure."
Morpheus: "If real is what you can feel, smell, taste and see, then 'real' is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain."
Hmmmm.... deep.
