Rumor has it, Willis loves to gamble.

It's like Cher and the mask kid had a baby.

I have nothing to add to this conversation, other than everything you all have mentioned as having a similar idea to "one actor for meat space, one actor for cyberspace" came out a decade or so after The Matrix, except Hackers, which had no digital avatars.
Angelina Jolie's digital/hacker character in hackers was presented as male at first.

While this is true on screen authors like Tad Williams covered this in Otherland (1996) and I’m fairly certain William Gibson did back in the 80s. The Matrix at least committed it to the screen but they weren’t really inventive.

I heard they are retconning the reason for the war between man and machine, the creators tried to assign a gender to the machines so civil war amongst the humans broke out which wiped civilization. Then the surviving machines decided to grant them a paradise where they can choose who they want to be. Sadly, each new colony of humans that rejects the Matrix eventually repeats history and the machines have to wipe clean and start over until man learns tolerance.

The problem is choice, and man keeps choosing to be intolerant.

While I love the countless memes from it, I found Fury Road itself to be really god damn boring. That's one of only a few movies I walked out of the theater while watching.

Oh well.
I made it like 30 minutes into fury road. Was a snooze fest.

My friend keeps telling me how matrix 2 and 3 were great and how they’re strong INTENTION parallels with the matrix and Christianity. An allegory of sorts lmao.
