Ok, I've had the DVD a week now and have watched it a couple of times.
And I thoroughly enjoy it. I don't care what anyone says about plot/CGI etc, because I enjoy it and that's all that matters to me.
Thoroughly looking forward to Revolutions as well, I'm avoiding all spoilers and scripts floating around because I want to be fresh, I knew a lot of the Reloaded stuff before I went in and that kinda ruined it for me.
Having watched Reloaded again now, some things I picked up on, thinking back to that website Snuggly unearthed about the company Neo works for in the 1st movie, and the info provided therein about Metacortex creating the "next generation virtual reality gaming".
I thought more and more about that, and the notion that Neo (being a programme writer in the 1st film) is either beta testing the new gaming system, or trying to leak the source code to Morpheus & Trinity (genuine hackers and not residents of Zion).
It makes more and more sense to me.
In the 1st movie, Thomas Anderson works for a company that writes computer software, and we know that he also is a hacker. We know Trinity is a hacker and that Morpheus is the leader of them all.
Anderson is approached by Trinity, first of all by hacking his computer screen when he sleeps
"How did you do that?" he asks etc.
Could it be that Anderson agrees to supply Morpheus et al with the leaked source code for the latest game called, perhaps, "The Matrix"?
There is constant talk in Reloaded about "The Source" and returning to "The Source", it could just be something as simple as source code for the matrix game Anderson is trying to leak to Morpheus.
Anderson could have the games system at home, allowing him to "jack in" and use that system to supply source info to Morpheus?
Metacortex could use their systems to jack in, creating Agents as representatives of company interests?
The Merovingian in Reloaded, when Persephone takes Neo to The Keymaker, is furious and swears at her, she taunts him about the blonde in the loo
"She wasn't kissing your face my dear" she says
"Merde...this is just a game. Just a game" he hisses.
I'm probably waaay off the mark and bored at work but hey, it killed 20 mins thinking about it all.
The Matrix isn't just a dream etc, but Anderson working for Morpheus in trying to supply leaked source code to hackers, with Metacortex & computer agencies trying to stop, all taking place in the virtual gaming world that the website talks about?
Backdoors used by programmers, gaining powers as Anderson/Neo "levels up" throughout the movie, the constant computer coding.

I enjoy Reloaded, however it turns out.

My theory -
the bold kid who bends the spoon goes mad and hacks zion to bits with a makeshift spoon/chainsaw

Reloaded was VERY dissapointing...
The MTV movie award spoof was 8 million times better...
It turns out that Zion is a back up programme to keep people from leaving the matrix... which Neo... the "One" realises. Smith is the machine's last hope to stop the humans from escaping the Matrix.
They escape... the world is fine.
The MTV movie award spoof was 8 million times better...
It turns out that Zion is a back up programme to keep people from leaving the matrix... which Neo... the "One" realises. Smith is the machine's last hope to stop the humans from escaping the Matrix.
They escape... the world is fine.
My theory -
Smith is the good guy.
Neo is the bad guy.
My opinion - my opinion is that Reloaded was a very average film, hopefully Revolutions can stable my flagging opinion.

This is Brilliant:

Hey!
I may as well throw in my little theory here backing up the one about Zion being part of the Matrix as well:
When people are woken up from the Matrix and they are in those pink bowls filled with jelly, a robot comes and looks at them. What should happen is the robot sees them as a fault or something and kills them - feeding them back to the babies (as seen in the 1st film - silver gooy stuff running over a baby).
But what actually happens is they get released down into the sewers palce where a ship finds them and takes them back to Zion.
Apparently it says 0.001% of people reject the Matrix (or around that figure - maybe just 0.01%). If you think about it - in a population of 6 billion, this is a hell of a lot of people.
Maybe enough to fill up a city?
So those who are rejected wake up in the bowls and find themselves heading to Zion, still actually in the Matrix.
Ta-daa!

Testify!
A genius spoof is ever there was one. Extra pairs of pants needed: 3
