Ok, I just finished watching the Matrix for the 72nd time. Two things bothered me, why is it that when Neo says Jesus or God Trinity always responds by saying what? Also, how did Trinity bring back Neo from the dead? So I think I have an answer…Trinity is the one!
Remember, the oracle told Neo he was not the one. The oracle told Trinity that she would fall in love with the one. Maybe it meant herself. You know, learn to love yourself, that kind of thing (OK, maybe I’m reaching here).
So does anyone else think that maybe Trinity is the one and Neo is maybe like a prophet or an assistant?
Well, Neo does fly at the end and he also beats an agent, and he also moves really really fast. So I still think he is the one. Interesting thought though.
What I still don’t get is the Morpheus thing. IIRC, Morpheus died at the end of the first movie, but he is supposedly in the second and third movies in the series. Am I missing something?

You’re overlooking the fact that TRINITY is an anagram of TRY IT IN, and MORPHEUS is an anagram of SOUR HEMP. But THE ORACLE is not to be trusted, being an anagram of CHEAT LORE. Clearly the hope lies in obtaining AGENT SMITH, as his name is an anagram of GET THIS MAN.
But overall, Keanu Reeves’s flat acting is perfect for THOMAS ANDERSON, as he HOSTS DRAMA NONE.
Do you know for sure? Maybe that’ll be the plot twist?
She is in the second and third movie, so she does survive. Also, she also flies at the begining of the movie. She flew through the window. She apparently is the only other person who can fly besides Neo.
I tried to figure out how her name fits into this. I know Neo is one but Trinity has some religious significance. Trinity stands for the holy Trinity which is God the Father, the son, and the holy spirit. In others words the One in three. Maybe Morpheus the spirit, Neo the son (whom she resurected, does that sound familiar?), and her the father (or mother in this case). So she is the divine one but maybe she hasn’t figured it out yet.
Trinity doesn’t really “fly,” at the beginning of the movie; it’s more like a well-targeted jump–sort of like she’s “diving,” only horitzontally, if you follow me.
I always found her bringing Neo back from the dead a bit of a reach myself, but I’ve basically decided that what she does is “convince” him that he can “refuse” death inside the Matrix. After all, according to Morpheus, your body dies in reality because your mind “thinks” it dies while inside the Matrix; the old “if you die in a dream, you die in reality” thing (heh, don’t ask me why you’d bleed in reality, though… maybe they were biting their tongues? :dubious:). Anyway, my guess is that in that moment Neo realizes that he’ll only die in the Matrix if he believes he can be killed there–in other words, it’s like he’s realized he’s dreaming, and suddenly knows that he can only die if he allows himself to, because he controls his own dream.
I thought about the idea that he died in the matrix but not in real life. The problem is that his heart stops and so does his breathing, so therefore he is clinically dead. She revived him by kissing him. I found this extremely corny at first and I almost discounted the whole movie when that happened but then I thought that there has to be more meaning to it.
No doubt. But I figure if that qualifies as “flying,” then Morpheus jumping from one building to another hundreds of feet away might as well, too–and we know he’s not The One. Anyway, in both cases they had to actually “push off” of something to propel themselves, which (as I see it, anyway) is more like jumping than flying.
Trinity brought Neo back into “the real world.” Maybe she’s “the one” in the second Matrix that quite a few suspect to exist as a bit of a plot twist. You know, like a dream of a dream, if that makes any sense.
My guess is that, with the right knowledge and incentive, anybody – nay, everybody – can be The One. It just takes Neo to show them The Way.
That’ll be how they ultimately defeat the computer: by having everybody get Neo’s “powers”. A billion Agent Smiths could never hope to combat such a force.
