I’m coming to the realization that The Matrix as a franchise & fictional playground is to me what Star Wars is to so many other people. I like Star Wars but the world & themes in The Matrix speak to me so much more deeply. And this is despite only truly unreservedly loving The Matrix (1999) & The Animatrix.
Star Wars fans are treated with so many incredible franchise projects like Visions & The Mandalorian, the varied & more often than not terrific games (SWTOR, Squadrons, Jedi Survivor etc.) & the deluge of original novels, short story collections, TTRPGs & comics is the tier of cultural status & ubiquity The Matrix franchise deserves as well. It’s such a rich source of fiction potential that doesn’t get earnestly capitalized on outside of the efforts of the Wachowski Sisters & not since the early ‘00s sadly.

I find the most unrealistic thing about the Matrix is Neo not at least asking what would happen if he takes both pills

Did you know that some of Shadow the Hedgehog’s lines for Sonic 3 have been leaked? Here are some of the lines I saw from the leaks:
“Yeah.”
“Whoa.”
“Guns. Lots of guns.”
“Excellent!”
“Shoot the hostage.”
“I’m thinking I’m back!”
“The only stars that matter are the ones you look at when you dream.”
“I WANT ROOM SERVICE! I WANT THE CLUB SANDWICH, I WANT THE COLD MEXICAN BEER, I WANT A $10,000-A-NIGHT HOOKER!”

Thinking about the casting of Smith as east asian in the dance show, and whether that's supposed to be a piece of "race blind" casting, or a choice with actual thematic/symbolic weight. In the movies, the idea of the Oracle as his "mom" does potentially imply a mixed-race, white-passing Smith - in ways that could intersect with the closet and masking subtext, but that I've been reluctant to lean into as much, if only because I'm white/the wachowskis are white/both smith actors are white. Given how much the animatrix machines-as-oppressed-group backstory is emphasized in the dance show, I almost wonder if the casting is supposed to evoke a Smith who's racialized in line with that oppression narrative, but can still access conditional privilege via violence against "more" racialized people like Morpheus

still thinking if games are even worth it... about resurrecting old franchises (we're in the 20-year nostalgia cycle, so many of the major franchises are build on old well known things)... not having any answers atm.

The Matrix and The Terminator are science fiction movies that explore the theme of a dystopian future where machines have taken control. In The Matrix, humanity is unknowingly trapped in a simulated reality while machines harvest their energy. The Terminator franchise focuses on a future where machines, particularly the powerful AI known as Skynet, have rebelled against humanity.
Both movies depict a struggle between humans and machines, with technology playing a central role. The collective consciousness, also known as the hive mind or group mind, is a concept in which the thoughts and knowledge of individuals are shared and interconnected.
In The Matrix, the collective consciousness of humanity is being manipulated and controlled by the machines through the simulated reality. In The Terminator, Skynet gains power by connecting machines worldwide in a networked collective consciousness.
Therefore, the connection between The Matrix, The Terminator, and the collective consciousness lies in their exploration of the relationship between humans and machines, and how technology influences and shapes our perception of reality and collective consciousness.
