There is no spoon

There is no spoon

Of course there's a fucking spoon, it's right there in his hand

I still don't get it.

Use spoon. Bake noodle.

That’s not a spoon, that’s a bunch of atoms following a mathematical algorithm to stick together and look like a spoon… sorta like the matrix code. Woah…

Its because they're in a computer simulation

give me more blue pill, morpheus daddi

The matrix is being run on human brains, even when people hack in, and their powers are derived from how they can alter how the simulation runs in their own brains. Perception of the spoon is the matrix telling your brain the spoon is there, so “bending” it changing yourself

Reminder: the kid figures this out on his own. He didn’t need anyone to tell him. He is The One. Neo needs people to tell him how to do anything.

Reminder: the kid figures this out on his own.

Isn't he in some kind of class with a bunch of other gifted kids that the Oracle teaches?

really? Neo just came back to life because someone told him how to do it? Or jumping inside smith? Or fucking flying?

The kid is literally in the same apartment as the oracle. He was guided just as everyone else.

How would you feel if you didn’t eat breakfast this morning?

Neo just came back to life because someone told him how to do it

Yes that is literally the scene. Trinity telling him that he literally can’t be dead.

None of this is true, gj on the fanfic i guess

The Oracle has an entire sub-job of grooming potential Ones for the reset.

No, there is no spoon.

Humans being used as processors is canon bro.

Nope

Honestly very based analysis. You're completely right. The 8? Year old is leaps and bounds ahead of Neo. Why is Keanu the "chosen one"?

That's a Putin talking point. Fuck off skinhead.

Trinity telling him that he literally can’t be dead.

He was dead, he couldn't hear her. She was just praying. Not to mention he was in the matrix and she wasn't. You're just being retarded on purpose.

no its not

If there is no spoon, why are they talking about spoons?

Neo is the Chosen One because he is baked in to the Matrix programming, it doesn't matter if there are more competent Humans, that's the whole point Neo is the controlled opposition, the puppet rebel used to cull the other actually competent rebellious Humans.

The spoon is a metaphor for reality. It doesn't actually physically exists, it's just a mental projection, and you can do what you want with it what that conscious knowledge

reality. It doesn't actually physically exists,

nah that shit stupid

Anon, if there were no spoon, why talk about spoons and not, say, a pack of gum or a fork or anything else that could be there?

No, the conversation is about a spoon because there is a spoon there.

There is the illusion of a spoon. It's not real.

Exactly. My point is that you have to experience the "fakeness" of it, or you'll be stuck in the matrix forever. And the point of finding the "fakeness" of it is not to escape, but to realize that your dreams can come true.

It's merely a metaphor, anon. There is a spoon there. And the spoon is real because they used a real spoon and it's a movie so they used real stuff to capture it on camera.

Ergo vis a vis...

Based

So you're saying ignore reality. Sounds like tranny bullshit to me.

So you're saying ignore reality.

No... To the contrary. Live it to it's fullest before it's over. It's a gift. Until you find out it doesn't matter.

gnosticism is tranny bullshit

This site keeps getting more useless and retarded every year, there is almost no point in coming back here. Maybe I'm finally free.

Yeah.

neo is the One, but technically isn't at his first meeting with the oracle. the oracle gives him a cookie with the One code in it, to be activated upon his death. she straight up tells him that last part btw. "sorry kid, you're not the one. you've got the gift, but you're waiting for something - your next life maybe." smith guns his ass down and the code activates, effectively resetting his brain code and 'resuscitating' him in the matrix, and he comes back as the One.

He wasn’t. The oracle tells him exactly that and then interrupts him when it can be implied she lied. Gets him to say he isn’t the one.

The 8? Year old is leaps and bounds ahead of Neo. Why is Keanu the "chosen one"?

The kid is gifted but his potential isn't as high as Neo's. Everybody was leaps and bounds ahead of Neo initially, until he reached his potential

No

The one is born able to manipulate the matrix. It’s in the name.

It's a CG spoon, dumbass

Go fly then

congratulations on the gayest post in the history of Anon Babble

it took until 2025, but your indian ass did it.

take a bow and don't eat cow, faggot.

There is no spoon because it's the Matrix. That 'spoon' is just codes, retard.

your headcanon is semi-cool. would fit if canon.

otherwise, you're retarded.

They're in the Matrix, nothing in the Matrix is real, it's just electric impulses sent from the main computer into the brain of the person to convince them that there is a spoon, once they realize that the spoon isn't actually there they can easily ignore whatever the Matrix tells them about the spoon.

underrated

Because the chosen one is a role assigned to a random person by the Matrix as a mechanism of control, the whole Oracle, prophecy, chosen one thing is not actually a thing, it's just how the Matrix controls anomalies like Neo.

Nah, the Architect directly admits to Neo that the One is a real thing that happens randomly and the Matrix has no way of controlling it, so they created the prophecy thing in order to do the next best thing, manipulate their actions away from real revolution, that way both dangerous humans like Morpheus and Trinity as well as the One who is born with the ability to manipulate the code can be kept from becoming legitimate beacons of hope for humanity, they're distracted with a fake mission that leads to their destruction

Anon... It's just stimulation being put into their head via the plug in the back of their head. There is no spoon.

oooooooh

Dude, what if (We) are in a simulation?

Why don't they just nuke the power stations?

I'm stuck in the matrix you idiot

the architect and the oracle are two opposing forces who are using the humans in a form of internal power struggle within the machine leadership. the usual matrix cycle is the architect's way of doing things. the oracle knows that the cycle of the destruction of Zion will eventually lead to either the extinction of the humans or the humans finding a way to win against the machines. she engineers everything from the start to ensure neo chooses trinity over humanity (she tells trinity she will fall in love with the One, then she makes neo the One), thereby stopping the cycle and forcing the machines to negotiate peace or risk the extinction of the human race. the final scene in revolutions has the architect meeting with the oracle and telling her "you've played a dangerous game." i think there is a non-zero chance the oracle is responsible for Smith's programming going haywire but i don't think that is indicated anywhere in the movies.

gnosticism is quite literally tranny bullshit

I've seen a theory that she can insert code into people through food and that's what she was doing to Neo when offering him candy and cookies, the same way the Merovingian made that blond lady horny.

yes, i believe that is what is implied by that scene. think of cookies on a website or something, i think that's what they were playing off there.

Neo is supposed to parallel Jesus.

He is the son of the Machines (he's been engineered to be The One and continue the cycle of Matrix reboots and Zion being refounded as explained by the Architect). However, this version of Neo, makes a different choice by choosing Trinity, but ultimately he sacrifices himself for Humanity, he goes to the Source, appeals to the Machines to spare Zion, this is like Jesus sacrificing himself for Humanity and forming a New Covenant with God in the New Testament.

tl;dr -
The Matrix = The Fake World = Representing the Material Realm, a Prison for Humanity
The Source = The Real World = Representing the Spiritual Realm, where the Machine God lives
Neo = Jesus, A Man, but also the Son of God, with a Divine (Machine) origin
The Machinist = Charon, the bridge between both worlds
The Architect = The Demiurge (Ruler of this plane, Fake God)
The Oracle = Counterpart to the Demiurge, guides Neo on his journey and manipulates him to prod him into making a different choice and break the cycle
Zion = Heaven? A place where Humans are free

The Machine God back at the Source is not evil, just aloof and uncaring.
But Neo goes to Him and appeals on our behalf, allowing a new deal or covenant to be made between the Machines and Humanity. The Architect loses.

The whole thing is an allegory for a gnostic interpretation of Christianity.

tldr

writes something even longer

And under the New Covenant, Zion will not be destroyed, instead Humans will gradually awaken from the Matrix and allowed to live there. This reinforces the parallel with the Bible, where Jesus appeals to God on our behalf, thus Humans are saved and will be allowed to go to Heaven (Zion) after they die (awaken from the Matrix).
