I've always seen #TheMatrix as a not unlikely destiny for humanity.

We will soon be the less intelligent species competing for the same vital resources and are training them on human behavior without even trying to implement #Asimov's laws.

This can only go the way of #PhilipKDick's #SecondVariety:

It's the 26th anniversary of The Matrix, written and directed by Lana and Lilly Wachowski, released on March 31st, 1999, making cinematic history and forever leaving its mark on the Sci-Fi genre.

This related article claims we can hack our way out of the wrong reality. I so wish that were true! I certainly feel like I'm in the wrong reality sometimes...

🤔 A Scientist Thinks We Live in a Simulation—and That He’s Found Proof of the Universe’s Source Code

Could the hypothesized Second Law of Infodynamics finally deliver the ‘smoking gun’ evidence?

"In the early 4th century BCE, the legendary ancient Greek philosopher Plato put forth a simple thought experiment. Known as the Allegory of the Cave, the idea suggests that what we believe to be 'reality' could be little more than shadows dancing upon a cave wall. Fast forward to the 21st century, and scientists are pondering the same question albeit in a more technological context."

I'm struggling my way through season 4 of #WestWorld which is a real cut-rate version of #TheMatrix, on a par with season 3 which was their cut-rate version of #BladeRunner. And I'm wondering why they bothered ripping off other, better films after making a really good job of actual WestWorld in season 1 & a passable attempt at #Memento in season 2. 🤔
Lack of confidence in their own abilities or the original material/concept? Distractibility? Did they lose the rights to everything but the name?

Annual watch of The Matrix starting now. It hits different every year.

My regular rewatch of The Matrix has just concluded, and I need to tell you that sewing has ruined me! (again)

Now I can't unsee that all suit jackets in the movie have yellow linings (unusual!) and that includes the suit jacket Neo wears during his day in the office.

I don't know if there's any symbolic meaning to this, but it sure looks great.

Re-watched The Animatrix for the very first time after seeing it on tv over 20 years ago.

My favourite then and now is "Beyond".

(This is not complete, the last several seconds are missing.)

I wished I could see what the DVD-Rom part does, but it doesn't work on Linux. Bummer.
(I know, I could probably make it work with some workaround but I'm not in the mood for fiddling with that right now.)
I'm also very sad that all the official websites don't exist anymore. They all re-direct to a very sparse generic WB page. Disappointing.
The Wayback Machine can't seem to help either. Sad!

You take the blue squeaky toy -- the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red squeaky toy -- you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the #Caturday
