fun matrix
Lock is the symbol of logic (rational) seeking mind which does not want to beleive in miralces and prohecies. While Niobe is the symbol of experiential knowledge and morpheus the symbol of wisdom. If we analyse us thought processes, we start our life as a innocent kid following wisdom and when we grow we go after logic and rational thinking. Then after sufferings and setbacks and intermittant success in life, in a certain period of life we begin to understand that there soemthing much more than we can get by just rational thinking. This is when we start to appreciate again wisdom and we take the side of it. This is the story of Niobe , lock and Morpheus.
This is also the reason why Niobe supports Neo and gives her ship, because it is not because of "belief" he is the "One" , but because of her experiencial knowledge with being with Neo who can understake successfully a task.
The problem with interpretting matrix is that we take the Matrix theme very literally (just computer codes), which is okay and you see fun in that. But beauty of the movie unfolds when you see the layers of knowledge packed in it. Taking literally the Matrix is like a blind man touching an elephant leg and describing it is a pillar and touching its trunk thinking it as a rubber tube and its tail as a hairy rope.
If the blind man had a clue he would not get into these conclusions. The directors have given a clue to the whole trilogy be giving the verses of upanishads in Navras as credit song and Asatoma sad gamaya during the fight of Neo and smith. All the ten verses summarizes the movie theme. This is the light through which we can see the hidden meanings of matrix. Without which we all would be blindly commenting on matrix trilogy and miss its "Inner Beauty".
