The third one is disappointing

but some awesome fight and chase scenes.

Some random quotes:

Neo: Whoa. Déjà vu.
[Everyone freezes right in their tracks]
Trinity: What did you just say?
Neo: Nothing. Just had a little déjà vu.
Trinity: What did you see?
Cypher: What happened?
Neo: A black cat went past us, and then another that looked just like it.
Trinity: How much like it? Was it the same cat?
Neo: It might have been. I'm not sure.
Morpheus: Switch! Apoc!
Neo: What is it?
Trinity: A déjà vu is usually a glitch in the Matrix. It happens when they change something

Neo: The Matrix.
Morpheus: Do you want to know what it is?
Neo: Yes.

Morpheus: The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work... when you go to church... when you pay your taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth.

Neo: What truth?
Morpheus: That you are a slave, Neo. Like everyone else you were born into bondage. Into a prison that you cannot taste or see or touch. A prison for your mind

It would have been funny if in revolutions Smith pulled out a switchblade and was like haha gotcah b***ch ! :-d lol...

Well, then....since we seem to have some Matrix fans here let me test your creative intellect with a very simple question:

In the first two Matrix movies, why are there exactly three Agents?

I mean, why three? Why not two, or four, or five, etc?

Let me know what you think.

I don't know but I think has something to do with Philosophical Influences.

Quote:

In all of three films, there are a multitude of references, from Gnosticism to Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, and Christianity, with concepts of Purpose, Enlightenment, Nirvana and Reincarnation or Rebirth, Free Will versus Destiny, Perception, Maya, Karma and perusal of Existence itself. In many ways The Matrix is about a hyperreality, an awareness and maintenance of the idea that the material, physical world is an illusion

The Matrix Trilogy also follows all phases of the Campbellian heroic myth arc with near-literal precision, including even minor details like the circular journey, the crucial battle happening underground, and even the three-headed immortal enemy (the three agents).

Because it is a matter of the system trying to balance the equation. Since there is Morpheus, Trinity, and Neo (the holy trinity so to speak) the formula has to have three opposites of equal value (or power) to balance them out. By the end of revolutions, there is technically morpheus (the wise human) and the source (the wise computer)...one of each to keep the equation in balance so that everyone is happy...

Well, what do you know? That must not have been a very difficult question after all. Either that or there is more to kal-el than blue tights. *laugh*

The three-headed enemy is precisely why there are exactly three agents. Very good!

you are such a nerd mathy.
Being all subterfuge and inscrutable.
