[QUOTE="RolandOfGilead, post: 896597, member: 7140"] Agent smith in the first matrix is desperate to get the encryption codes so that he can access the zion mainframe to escape the matrix.. so he's trying to get out! He even suggests that he is attempting to get the zion codes so he can destroy zion (once and for all) and therefore he would no longer need to be in the matrix. Whats going on here? Is smith not really aware of the true plot/prophecy? or is he seeking to divert it? If he is aware that The One reloads the matrix, and that zion is never destroyed for good, then he knows that even if he gets the codes, destroying zion is not the goal of his superiors. Which would mean... that maybe he can destroy zion forever? by entering the mainframe.. can he permanently destroy zion? Would this indicate he's actually implying that Zion IS a virtual reality, and that ITS mainframe is the key to destroying it for good? On a side note, in the first movie, his goal was to "escape the matrix".. which he has succeeded in, at least in part. Eric Noah mentioned in another thread that perhaps a subtle subtext of the movie is that the independent programs are searching for ways to escape the matrix... so maybe thats whats going on here. Further, why were the agents trying to kill the keymaker? Doesnt this strike you as odd? According to the architect, neo was supposed to find the keymaker to "Reload" the matrix. so if the agents killed him, that wouldnt have happened.. so are the agents working for a different entity than the architect? One that is counter to the goals of reloading the matrix.. why would that be? Maybe the A.I. Leaders of the agents are wiped out every time the system is rebooted, and they lose their identity.. so they actually want to pervert the architect's desires. which begs the question, why kill the keymaker and not the oracle? Smith seems to find her easily enough. The Merovingian seems to want to keep the keymaker alive, but unused.. so his goals are similar to those of the agents, but he has a stake in the keymaker, so he doesnt want him destroyed...
