"Explain to me what I just saw....*MATRIX ENDING SPOILER*"

I sat watchign the ending waiting for some thing to happen, so Neo died to save the world but what was The Oracle and The architect talking about?
I sat confused and wondering whether any one else knew what had happened?

I don't want to see the movie! Rather wait until it comes out to buy. And seeing as quite a few people have said it wasn't as good as so and so..
quite glad didn't go and see it yesterday.

So.. did she die? =P

MsNY: Go and see the damn movie!!

I thought the Christ stuff was way overboard. We're sitting looking at a big glowing cross in the middle of the screen, and I'm sitting rolling my eyes.

So.. did Trinity die?

:'(

Neo died. No one notice one of the most obvious references to Neo as Christ? When the machines were dragging him at the end - his legs we4re crossed and his arms spred - the imag of christ on the cross. The fact that christians belive that someday he will return is pushed here.

The oracle saying that to effect that they will see neo again is true, as neo was the product of an unbalenced equation in the matrix, and as the matrix was reset this remainder will again begin to build up until the one is reborn.

> He will be back bigger and better then before.

Course he'll be back, but not as Neo - just as the next iteration. At a guess I'd say the machines were taking back the code he carries (seen glowing yellow at the end)

P.S. the Matrix *was* reset, after Smith was eliminated, you saw it refresh and then it was a much happier, non-green-tinted matrix.

I believe the 'cataclysmic failure' talked about in Reloaded was actually Agent Smith.. he 'usually' destroys the matrix by infecting it. Neo should have returned to the source to be protected while the machines switch off/reset the matrix.

Because Neo chose to go back into the matrix to save Trinity, other means had to be found to remove Agent Smith. This was succesful, so the usual turn of events never happened (but there's no way the war is over....)

How do we know he is dead and not jsut nearly dead and even if he is he has risen before. I think he'll be back especially with the machine dragging him off at the end. If this was to return him to Zion then we would have seen that scene.

He will be back bigger and better then before.

I thought Neo died

*shrugs*

It didn't reset as most of the people of Zion are still alive, and so probably is Neo. I think that the film should have had a more final ending but Hollywood will want a 4th film and so the writers had to leave it open. Neo will return and the peace will break down.
