Can anyone explain the ending of Matrix 3? Did we win?

Yes, we won: Neo got rid of Agent Smith, that was the evil side of Neo trying to take over the Matrix. Because of this, the rulers of the Matrix decided to free all the humans that were still connected to it, and people and machines will go back to living together. The Architect, when he speeks to the Oracle, indicates that. You might want to rent The Animatrix, it gives background on the origin of the Matrix, and some interesting graphics.

I don't remember which is which, it's been a while since I have seen the movie, but I would enter the matrix. Being in Neo's situation, what do you have to loose? Live a little, have an adventure, it's usually worth the risk.

I'm not sure there is a message that can be summed up in a few words.  Donnie seems to be psychotic, but ends up saving the universe.  He is chosen by a higher power to save it and is given superhuman powers to be able to do so.  He is guided by someone whose death he causes in the tangent universe.\n\nMaybe the message is that we're all crazy, or maybe nobody is.\n\nI think it was just a really fantastic movie by really smart people who wanted to make us think.

V for Vendetta.  GREAT movie!  If you liked the Matrix trilogy, you'll probably like this one.

Matrix Revolutions Interpretations and Theories:\n\nInterpretations:\n\n1. The Oracle helped write the matrix - so she knows the code and can 'know' what can happen. (Including random events as she uses the same random number generatior). She also helped write the implementation process for the humans and probably just signed the\nimplemented human code with her own key, so that only she can read it (else, every other machine program could read human code and know what they were up to). So she knows how the humans inside the matrix think and act. She can predict (to an extent - not beyond their choice) the actions of the freed humans too. Thats why she is the 'Oracle'. \n\nShe Since she knows how everyone thinks/works she can easily unbalance everything. The Architect on the other hand, is the collective Avatar of the machine world within the Matrix (or of whoever controls 01). The machines need a balanced world in which they can live in, thus they also repopulate Zion after each Reload/Destruction of Zion - they need a goal, a purpose, a loop they can replay (machines without vision also perish). This although does not necessarily have to be human opponents to fight - it's just a relative easy occupation, since it usually works out well for the machines. Neo unbalanced everything a bit by going through the "wrong" door. Smith further unbalanced everything by becoming so mighty. The Oracle knows the Architect/machines need balance, and she knows they will do whatever it takes to balance out any unbalance. So she furthers the unbalance even more by becoming an entity to Smith and has herself get taken over.\n\nTherefore, Neo can negotiate peace with the machines, because the Oracle knows to what extremes the Architect would go to ensure balance. And he said himself in M2: "There are levels of survival we are prepared to accept" - that could only mean a "life" without the support of human\nenergy - but also a "life" along with the humans. Therefore by unbalancing everything, she knows the Machines/Architect would agree\neven to peace, just to reinstate a balanced world.\n\n2. Why did Neo destroy sentinels with his hands? Bceause he's the one. The Oracle said that Neo touched the Source before he was ready and that was why he could be in the train station as well as the Matrix with out being jacked in. She also alludes to his powers ( which are only the ability to manipulate data) extending to real world as a result of this. Which would imply a constant ( most likely wireless, seeing that the humans are bred to be part machine, what with the plugs and such) connection to the data world. it would be possible for Neo to manipulate data in the real world. Such as instigate a shutdown on the squiddies ( it's only a simple command right?) or issue a self-destruct command on the shrimp bombs (again, just a simple machine code command).\n\n3. How is Smith defeated /  ended (whatever the case may be) ? They are equally matched, as they are both the opposite sides of an anomoly.\nWhen Neo sees Trinity falling, he can't see whether she dies, because his choices can still affect whether she dies. But when Smith uses the Oracles eyes to see Neo lying on the ground, he assumes that he wins, thus in his arrogance he just uses one copy of himself to fight Neo. So Neo defeats him the same way he did the first time.  A little differently - he destroys him because he is the negative and he destroys the kernel but negating him. All the other smiths lose identity and get destroyed too. Also, this time he was directly connected to the machines. Rememer the swirling code and Smith's confusion when he took her over?  Nothing like that had happened before.  So when Smith starts his confused rambling about "Yes, I've seen this before.  Me standing here, you lying there.  It's about to end." he's actually using some of the Oracle's ability.  He even begin

What exactly is the matrix? The protagonist, Neo (Keanu Reeves), discovers in the first film that the world he knows—normal life of the late 1990s—is actually a virtual reality program plugged into his brain. This computer program, or matrix, is the wool pulled over humanity's eyes. In reality, mankind is imprisoned by menacing machines that use humans for energy. Whoa.\n\nThen a group of freedom fighters waging war on the machines take Neo into the war-ravaged real world. Many of them believe Neo is their prophesied savior.\n\nThe Matrix stands apart from other pop culture franchises because the Wachowskis embed their films with philosophical questions and theories—and then refuse to talk publicly about what they mean. Fans then rabidly discuss what The Matrix is and means. They dissect dialogue, research character names, and analyze what even a room number (303) might mean.\n\nThese discussions continue in Internet chat rooms, in postmodern coffee shops, and in at least three books released in the last year. Taking the Red Pill and The Matrix and Philosophy are collections of essays written by professors, philosophers, and scientists who flesh out theories, metaphysics, and theologies glimpsed in the movie. The Gospel Reloaded argues that the film not only gets viewers thinking about master's-level philosophy but also offers insight into faith.\n\n"After decades of self-interested televangelists, it is no wonder that emerging generations yawn in the face of historic practices of faith and the authority of the church," write authors Chris Seay and Greg Garrett. "That is, until The Matrix. Neo is a savior worth considering, and his recontextualization of the gospel as a story of freeing the captives has won many new believers."

When you connect to the Matrix, your mind and self become a piece of computer software.\nSmith took the form of an uncontrollable virus that the Matrix couldn't pinpoint or exterminate.\nNeo was sort of a floppy disk. He let Smith fuse with him so the Matrix would eliminate Smith and, in return, grant humanity peace for the anti-virus favor.\n\nI think Neo died PHYSICALLY, but his "self", his conscious existence, lives within the construct of the Matrix.\n\nIt's like getting an unstoppable virus from your computer, letting it take over YOU, let your body die along with the virus, and continue living on by having your soul in your computer.\n\nI hope I helped.

Does everything really happens with a purpose? \nDoes everything        happen  with a purpose? \nDoes everything        happen      on purpose? \n\nThe Reality of "The Matrix" is that the "visible" is the expression of the "invisible" - everything you see is the result of something invisible that caused it to be.\n\nFor something to happen with a purpose, whatever that "something" is, would have to be designed to perform a "function" (in that context comes the matter of the belief of whether life is by accident or by design). An accident is the result of an unintended consequence. Design is intentional.\n\nThat which is "designed" is an expression of an undeniable logic that expresses an ordered intelligence towards an end result. Whereas an "accident" is just the opposite - the expression of chaos that is result of the lack of order and intelligence.\n\nNature expresses an undeniable symphonic harmony - a union of all living things. Everything in context of everything defines everything. When that which is not harmonious with nature intrudes upon it like a "car accident" - the result is chaos.\n\nTo answer your question:\n\nEverything that "exists" functions with a purpose.\nEverything that "happens" is either an expression of "function" or the "chaos" of unintended consequences.

The Sixth Sense had the best surprise ending in recent years. I mean it was so skillfully done that people could've picked up on it or something but then at the end it was like "Whoa". I mean the ending is such a surprise that it kinda makes the movie almost boring to watch agian! Now, that's a surprise ending.

Greetings. I watched X3 on Saturday and loved it. I heard about the 3 endings on Radio 1 so I told my partner to stay behind to watch the 3rd ending and she was blown away by it. From what I heard from an interview with Patrick Stewart, there will be a 4th film. If you remember back to the scene in the Danger room...remember the robot they were facing? That's a Sentinel. In the comic, that's their next enemy. So it's all set up and I can't wait!! Bye for now.

It's just a glitch in the Matrix.   Ignore it and it will go away.

Its a good question.\n\nWe know because feelings such as love, humour, and sadness cannot be created by a 'Matrix'.

*****SPOILER****  SPOILER****Remember when Professor Charles Xavier was giving the lecture to the students about their poweres and abilities and he had them watch the guy in the hospital bed? He talked about ability transferring if they had the power to do that and what benefits it could have and the ethics of it, etc etc?\n\n\nWEll in the very end after the credits...it shows a female Dr enter a hospital room, she checks in on the patient then we hear Prof Xavier's voice say,"Moira" and she replies "Charles?" so, this is Dr. Moira MacTaggart and Prof Xavier has transferred is mental being into this man. Leaves it open to sequal of course...especially with the fact that Magneto could start moving the chess piece even if it was slight..showing only temporary cure that does not last.
