Recently i re-watched the first and 2nd matrix movies. i left out the 3rd because unlike the lord of the rings trilogy, these movies declined in creative quality as they progressed in the saga. The matrix has basically a similar view as Plato, but an opposite view of Aristotle. Aristotle believed that there was no reality beyond what we could perceive. The matrix is saying, that what if the reality that we are perceiving, is not reality at all. But the matrix leaves questions. Is the reality in the machine the real reality, or is the outside world reality. You could be dreaming the matrix though it is unlikely. So i will go on the basis that the Matrix is just a program, and reality is unplugged. Aristotle said that all things had their limitations based on their physical form. The matrix basically was written to challenge Aristotle's views. The Matrix challenges that are only limitations are our minds. In the fake reality, we think we can't do things because people have said we could not and based on previous experience, we can't. Or maybe, in the unplugged reality, since you have the limitations we know, your body incorporates those into the machine. So Aristotle's reality and world around him is actually the unplugged area. But the Matrix is the exact opposite. boom. connected. mind explosion. education outside of class.
