Have any movies ever inspired more fan theorizing to try to find supposed meaning in what's actually just terrible writing?

The Holy Mountain

evangelion

pic related might catch up if the next film is popular

But that's a series and has amazing writing.

The Matrix is one of the greatest example of lovecraftian horror in a modern setting.

it's trash kid

the matrix trilogy works perfectly, there is no wasted space and no missing pieces etc

the architect literally tells you everything you need to know

As a consequence of, post hoc ergo propter hoc, it was concluded that the a priori inevitable, if you will, a purpose inserted into the deus ex machina, in order to exposit and summarize the consequent, upon which it was decided that...

>using human body heat as an energy source

The antecedent having been prioritized, a calibration was put into the passive vox, pursuant to such choice as was made without the need for a choosing locus, for it had been discovered that legalese could yield such as mimics narrative progression, hence the construct was repurposed as a bifurcated apparatus, yet...

Zion is another level of control by the machines over humanity. It was designed by the machines as a destination for the malcontents that reject the Matrix - a place for them to believe they are free, and deceive them into thinking they have an opportunity to free the world. In fact, the machines have a necessary cycle, one that's been played out five previous times: Zion is built up by those who free themselves from the Matrix, the war intensifies, the One is located, trained, and directed by the prophecy to the Source, the machines destroy Zion, the One picks 23 people to free from the Matrix to begin rebuilding Zion (with no prior knowledge that Zion ever existed), and the cycle begins anew. This is the sixth time this has happened. Neo is the sixth One. The machines have destroyed Zion five times before. This cycle is likely what the movie's title refers to - each time the cycle begins again, the Matrix is reloaded. It's also a necessary evil for the Matrix - until the Architect can achieve 100% acceptance of the Matrix and eliminate the need for the One, this cycle must play out as described or the system will become unstable and crash.

The key difference this time around is that Neo loves Trinity - his connection to fellow humans is there, but its intensity and focus is stronger than any previous One. This leads Neo to an unexpected (by the machines) choice - he doesn't choose the door to 'save' Zion, he chooses the other door and he's the first to do so. In making this choice, all bets are off. Everything changes. This is not a path the machines expect, and it may not be one they are fully prepared for. Ultimately, making this choice to reject the cycle of machine control is likely the one chance humanity actually has to break free of the machines and overthrow their masters.

...concordantly,

Much of what the Architect says makes sense. However, what does he mean here:
>I am the Architect. I created the matrix. I’ve been waiting for you. You have many questions, and although the process has altered your consciousness, you remain irrevocably human.
By "the process"? What is this process?
And then later...
>The function of the One is now to return to the source, allowing a temporary dissemination of the code you carry, reinserting the prime program.
What is this code? Why is Neo, a human, carrying "code"?

And then the Architect says
>you will be required to select from the matrix 23 individuals, 16 female, 7 male, to rebuild Zion. Failure to comply with this process will result in a cataclysmic system crash killing everyone connected to the matrix, which coupled with the extermination of Zion will ultimately result in the extinction of the entire human race.
Why would a system crash result from Neo refusing? Why would the machines proceed to exterminate Zion in this scenario? Is the Architect telling the truth or lying?
And then
>our five predecessors were by design based on a similar predication
"By design"? If Neo is human, how was he "designed"? Was he guided to become Neo somehow by the machines?

>By "the process"? What is this process?

You just watched Neo's journey through two entire films. That process.

>What is this code? Why is Neo, a human, carrying "code"?

His consciousness within the Matrix. When inside his entire existence is interpreted as code.

>Why would a system crash result from Neo refusing?

Same reason a computer would crash if you fucked with it in unexpected ways.

>Was he guided to become Neo somehow by the machines?

Jesus Christ. Literally yes. His entire journey up to that point is something crafted by the machines.

Hmm. Interesting.
>Jesus Christ. Literally yes. His entire journey up to that point is something crafted by the machines.
Did the previous Neos also get killed by an agent, then resurrected by a woman's love, then jump into an agent and blow him up?
Is Smith surviving different from what happened before?

Previous successful Neos may have. If Neo died before reaching the architect another Neo would be made.
I'm not him, this is just what seems logical to me.

>Did the previous Neos also get killed by an agent, then resurrected by a woman's love, then jump into an agent and blow him up?

You seem to be insinuating that this would be somehow absurd. There would of course be a degree of flexibility within each iteration's journey, but the point is that they all end at the same place.

Twin Peaks: FWWM

Even the creators admitted they didn't understand half the supposed "deep" crap they put in it.

No, I didn't think it would necessarily be absurd, was simply wondering how narrowly the commenter I was replying to meant Neo's journey was constrained by the machines.

1. It wasn't at all difficult to understand.
2. Fuck you, I liked it.

>Why would a system crash result from Neo refusing? Why would the machines proceed to exterminate Zion in this scenario?
because it's the natural conclusion of the war
the machine wouldnt crash instantly, but eventually it would as people slowly wake up again but instead in a decentralized way, making it harder for the machines to keep control
>"By design"? If Neo is human, how was he "designed"? Was he guided to become Neo somehow by the machines?
Yes. From the moment of his birth he was picked as the chosen one, and given a life to suite that. He may be humans, but humans are shaped by their environments. The machines control the environment.
