Before Matrix Reloaded

Kid staring at monitor,

Somebody tell me.
Why it feels more real when I dream than when I am awake
How can I know if my senses are lying?

There is some fiction in your truth,
and some truth in your fiction.
To know the truth, you must risk everything.

Who are you?
Am I alone?

You are not alone.

The whole world is now waiting a few more days, for Matrix Reloaded. Before this, to be warmed up, I watched Animatrix — The Matrix Anime. Yes, it’s cool and fascinating, you got to have the feel of re-understand Matrix. It is a series of Anime short films, showing stories of Matrix, explaining what happened before Matrix. The Animatrix was directed by Japanese, Korean and American famous animators, combining of both cool Anime and creativity.

I used to be fan of Japanese Anime/comics, so it’s just match my style. Andy and Larry Wachowski’s writing is still enjoying. If you still don’t get “What is the Matrix?”, go watch their “Second Renaissance Part I & II”. Well, then cross your finger, the Matrix, is coming soon.

Hi elijah,

I've just watched Matrix Reloaded yesterday, didn't notice the 101....which part did you see it?

However, I did find some info at http://www.bradenton.com/mld/bradenton/entertainment/special_packages/matrix/5814556.htm . It state: "Neo's room number is 101. Room 101 was the place in George Orwell's novel 1984 where people were sent to be tortured and would end up believing something that wasn't true." Is that what you are thinking?

My theory is that 101 is binary for 5. Computers count from 0 though

0 1 2 3 4 5

so we have 6 digits and Neo is the 6th "One."

the number 101 is a reference to Orwells, 1984. it is the room number where the thought police interrogated people.
