I'm rewatching the films and it's just hit me - when they wake up from the matrix where do they get the clothes from? Some of the time they're wearing jumpers which could be argued that they could have downloaded the knowledge of how to knit however where would they get the materials if the world is run by AI machines? The fabrics would have decayed long ago. They're naked in the pods but when they're woken up theres just a pile of clothes some where they can choose from?

I recently discovered the 2023 Warner Bros Zhenka Matrix Trading Card set, the first licensed Matrix cards.

Boxes on eBay are ~$20. I bought 7 boxes for ~$130 and pulled incredible cards including an ultra rare gold metal card of Trinity (# 02/03!?) and a limited gold-plated coin card of Morpheus # /99! I can’t find ANY listings nor past sales for these cards or any similar cards in the set.

I’ve had a blast ripping these boxes with my dad and working on completing the master set now.

💚🖤 Anybody else here collect this set!?

Neo doesn't believe he's the one. But understands what does mean to believe in something, as he sees Morpheus is willing to sacrifice his own life for what he believes. This is the turning point in Neo's consciousness. He goes in believing he's going to save Morpheus, but also knows he's going to die doing that as Oracle predicted. He does this because he knows he's not the one, and he must save Morpheus so he can find the real One and thus save the humanity. Neo finally understands he's just another guy, but must sacrifice himself for the greater good.

And Trinity goes with him because she believes he's the one, because Oracle told her she would fall in love with the one and she does. Morpheus also believes Neo is the One. But to truly become the One he must go through the process of initiation, he's old self must die. From Neo's perspective he doesn't know that he's going through initiation, and believes he's going to die saving Morpheus.

And Neo in fact die in the end and gets resurrected as the One.

The power of belief.

Any other movie/s that address themes like fake reality , simulation universe , twists and/or revelations.

Also watched Pleasantville , Free Guy and Truman Show.

Thanks

They had film frames for each of the movies from the original trilogy, but this one is from my all time favourite sequence (Oracle/Burly Brawl) from my favourite part of the saga.

The ones they had for sale at the time for the first and third movies weren't as strong as this one. Going to try to pickup better frames for the other 2 when I track down their website.
