the pill is to pinpoint him while in the matrix, even if he would have eaten it...he's not REALLy eating in real life....i think it's not that difficult to find them normally in the real world, after they free them. They should just have a number each, no?
another thing...the dumbest thing...in the second renaissance, when the people send nuclears over the machines, they say that machines aren't affected by radiations as the human flesh is. But it's silly because we all know that any electrical system falls when exposed to radiations....especially those digital stuff they have in them.

I found the 2nd renaissance to be fairly disturbing, but other than that the animatrix wasn't too bad...beyond was visually beautiful and the others offered decent insights into the movies 🙂
but enough w/ the scantily dressed girls... please

its true. a nuclear bomb blast emitts an EMP, just like the hovercraft. so how could the humans lose? if they nuked the crap out of Zero One all the machines would be incapacitated, that is if they weren't destroyed by the blast wave or fire wave. i really didn't like the story of renossaunce part 2. full of inconsistencies explained with coincidences. its just a story, but still a story based around known facts in reallity and within the story. can you say plot hole?
i didn't have a problem with the 2nd renaissance. to me, it seems pretty realistic. i think it depicted pretty well how a lot of people would react to the machines (i.e. beating them in the street) and how the machines would eventually sweep through their cities. guilt complex be damned, if we were to be taken over by machines it would probably go somehow like that. morpheus said it was a pretty grim reality.
and yes, in the storyline of the matrix movies, that's how it really happened. because osiris and the renaissance flicks were written by the wachowski's.
to whomever asked what kind of anime or whatever osiris was: it wasn't. it was cgi. like toy story.
matriculated was completely fubar, i didn't care for that one at all. it was like, "this is what a machine does when it's on PCP." but whoever asked what it's all about: a small group of the freedom fighters believed that they could convince machines, one by one, to fight for them. how that explains the little psychic marmoset . . . search me.
and detective story did not take place in the 30's or 50's. the man was in a chat room at one point. it was just in black and white. film noir style. i liked that one. and i'm kind of partial to "the program," myself. i didn't like the animation that much, but i thought it was a good story.
now . . . if SOMEONE could explain what the hell happened in world record, i'd be much obliged.
yeah world record made no sense. i think maybe he realized he is faster than what the world limits him to. like neo in M1, but he doesn't realize his reality is false. that's the best i can do with that one.
my point about rennosaunce II is that a nuclear bomb emits an EMP. hovercraft emit an EMP. but the nuclear bomb EMP has no effect yet the hovercraft EMP is "our only defense against the machines". sounds like some b.s. to me. i do agree that with out nukes humans would be hard pressed to defeat a never ending army of robots. my only problem was that they did have nukes that do emit an electromagnetic pulse, which even in the matrix reality is effective agains the machines, yet in rennosaunce they have no effect. its a contridiction which to me really takes away from the story. do you realize how many nukes the US has by itself? enough to destroy the world dozens of times over, yet they can't destroy one city in the desert. it really just pisses me off.
oh well
