Which I haven’t seen in 20 years, and when they were recounting how the AI took over, Morpheus says that the AI relied on solar power to power themselves, so to try to stop them, humans fired something to block out the sun.
So humans fired something to block out the giver of all light and life to stop the AI.
Dumb huh? Hahaha
That’s it. Not really a thread…Any other dumb movie plot lines?
I was watching the matrix reloaded (2003) recently. Actually only the first 25 mins so far. The caliber of sunglasses on display was extremely poor. Everyone looks like an utter buffoon.
But, now I think about it perhaps the sunglasses are a clever bit of filmmaking. If they all live in a sunless underground realm then whenever they visit the matrix they would be blinded by the sun. So they all have to wear shades even when indoors.
There’s a film, I forget its name, but at one point, someone is trying to guess what the password to something is. Then the protagnoist notices that the baddie is wearing a necklace with GREED written on it and says to the nerd on the computer
Try… greed
Doesn’t even say all caps, lower case or what and guess what? It works.
Can’t remember the film, the cast, anything about it really, yet here we are in 2021, potentially 20 years later, maybe more, and I still remember that scene.
Got a rare plot line on my current Stellaris game where you make contact with a black hole entity. The choices I took end with the sun in my home system collapsing into a black hole, which seems like a positive development for my civilisation of horrible psychic post-humans imho
