come on people...think...why would the merv call Seraph the 'Prodigal son'? this is a toughy, as it will require the synthesis of multiple conversations between different people...but i know someone out there must have an idea...

you just said no BS answers! make up your mind. very well then, i'll take a stab at it.

seraph used to work for the merovingian as a protector. my theory when he told smith that he has beaten him before was the time that he was in service of the merovingian... but alas, seraph consulted the oracle, he changed and decided to leave merv to protect that which matters most...

well, i am not going to say am i write, but that i what i think, basically...
you're turn to ask a question.

I would have posted a bs reply but u said not to🙁besides everytime i say anything, on any thread u jump down my throat, r u trying to choke me r something? 🙁

well, nobody said anything...i was thinking people were trying to kill this thread...and no, i'm not trying to choke you...

i'm having a matrix brain fart... i can NOT think of anything to ask 😱 so anybody, feel free to ask...

I knew there was a bad smell in here, i thought it was the last person jedi killed for giving stupid answers.

Name the three actors who signed on to the movie without reading the script first.

OHHH...a toughy...ok, lets see...there was Keanu Reeves, and Hugo
Weaving, and Carrie Ann Moss.

OMG! i think im gonna die of shock, Jedi got the qs wrong...i didnt think that could happen. None of the above people is one of the people that anbswers the qs.

i knew you would say that, so i bookmarked the pages that said those names...

However, according to the IMDB trivia for Matrix Reloaded, Lawrence Fishburn, Jada Pinket-Smith, and Anthony Wongall signed on without reading the script. However, all three of my answers were correct. Perhaps you should open your mind to other possibilities...

u might want to ask the next qs then

😆 *shrugs* whatever...

let's try an easy one...Why were the parents of Sati named Kamala and Rama-Kandra? Or, what is so special about their names?

Rama-Kandra is, well, Ramachandra, the seventh incarnation of Vishnu, the Christ. To be more accurate about it, Rama-Kandra is the divinity of Christ.
In Hindu mythology, Kamala really is the wife of Ramachandra. (Er, maybe not exactly, but close enough. Kamala is an incarnation of Lakshmi just as Rama is an incarnation of Vishnu.) This is a matched pair [5], and like Neo and Trinity we can talk about them as if they were one person. Their daughter is Sati (although it doesn't work out this way in the mythology). Taken on their names alone, I think the meaning here is that from divinity springs perfect sacrifice.

Is this right?

um...well, i was really just looking for the reasoning behind their names, why rama and kamala are married, but ok!! not too sure about the Christ part, though...Hindi doesn't have a Christ.

your turn

In the movie Higher Learning (1995), what was Laurence Fishburne's first sentence?

um...this is a MATRIX trivia game...while laurence fishburne was in the matrix, higher learning is not...

K, i'll change it.

When Smith and Cypher are together, we find out that Cypher's real name is Reagan.
What does this mean?
Hint: I don't want to remember nothing? (no nothing)

another hint: US History, semi-recently

ronald reagan and alzheimers...

close

During the Iran-contra affair, Regan said that he didn't remember various conversations, and/or that he wasn't aware of what was going on. This was immortalized by Peter Gabriel in one of his songs (I can't remember the title) in which he has the lines "I don't remember, I don't recall, I have no memory, of anything at all"

At the time, most of us thought he was lying, but now that we know he had Alzheimer's....

Note that another hint that The Bros were making fun of R. Regan is that Cypher says that he wants to be "something important, like an actor" (Regan was an actor before he was a politician).
