I was just reading one of the older threads when i thought of this...
What if, the architect is not who he says he is. What if the Architect is a rogue program that was able to insert himself between the door to the source and the door from the building. What if the architect is really a program, perhaps even sent by the Oracle, to give Neo a choice, to tell him the truth, before Neo entered the source and had his code rewritten. Perhaps all the other anomalies entered the door thinking the war would be over, to find out that, the war isn't over, theprophecy isnt true, and to have their code taken out and rewritten, so that the entire process can be done again? Maybe the Architect WANTED Neo to choose the door to Trinity, instead of repeating the process, WANTED humanity to prevail. Suggestions?
Mayyybe, but that's a stretch... it seems. I think its like someone said in another thread. The anamoly has to make the actual choice of returning to the source, or choosing to wipe out all human life. The choice itself is what causes the whole restarting of the matrix and zion. But Neo rebelled against that as well, he saved Trinity, against what the Architect said, Neo is really the One who will bring about the destruction of the Matrix

the architect maybe who he says he is or not, but he probably does want them dead. the ai/machines need a human to make the choice (responsibility) of killing the human race because they cant. 'there are levels of survival we are willing to accept' is prob a lie to make the machines seem less *i cant think of the word!* and more dependant on humans. in all likelihood they dont need humans, the matrix is just a prison - for their minds, and zion wouldnt be able to attack. if they did the machines already know where they are (if zion is rebuilt in the same location)
JediHDM> No, I think the Architect is what and who he says he is. The Wachoski Brothers adhere to classic storytelling, with helpers and enemies, obstacles and so on and so forth. They simply twist the environment, NOT the classic story in itself, so the content of the story becomes warped.
If Neo would’ve entered the Source, the sentinels would reach Zion and kill EVERYONE there, including everyone onboard every single hovercraft. That would include Trinity. So by showing Neo the images of Trinity falling to her death, the Architect is relaying the message: “She is going to die, and there is nothing you can do to stop it.” In other words, choosing to return to the Matrix wouldn’t save her. Trinity would die.
It is actually here that the (in)famous sex-scene from Reloaded gains it’s total credibility. Neo is willing to TRY, he is ready to sacrifice all of humanity to save his beloved. That was the one thing the Architect could NOT forsee.

well the only way the architect could be who he said he was is if he said that he was the most boring movie character of all time..and that he and the rave scene joined forces in an effort to ruin the matrix trilogy.
Ohmygawd! So the Architect has been lying ALL this time, because he didn't admit to Neo that he, The Architect, was boring??!?!?
