What was the girl in the background supposed to represent? Yes, I am watching the Matrix. I watched it in 1999, and I'm watching it now. Let's discuss its seldom discussed vagaries.
>>222482583She was there to flesh out the message that these were a bunch of alt-y, scary weirdos (from the perspective of a normgroid). "Look how cool and wild and mysterious these people are." A reaction of "finally, my people!" or "hmm, they look interesting, but a little scary, maybe they could be my people" was expected from the viewer. Truth is to be found among the misfits and freaks and those society has conditioned you to dismiss, fear, and revile.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGVn-MfHseM

>>222482583both girls have some egyptian thing goin on
>>222482583Maybe it was the Wachowski brothers trying to pervert Indians.
>>222483222
It's literally this
>>222482583How did you enjoy it again, anon? Are you going to watch the others? I can't do just one. I even fucks with the Animated except for a couple of em. I think anons in the thread so far are right, theres probably no deeper meaning in her appearance. I think it was just to solidify them as weirdos and that's cool. She looks hot though gonna go check her IMDb and wank it
>>222486990Ok well brief update I did learn that Choi and his girl's name, DuJour, are to be combined meaning choice of the day. Free will n all that
>>222482583I just realized that if I were to die intentionally, then all of the psychological anxieties and stresses that I suffer and agonize over will go away.
why did Morpheus put a beret on when they were hiding from the sentinels and where did he get it?
>>222482583she's promissing fun, definitely.next scene is Neo at the fun party, alone.it always bothers me.
>>222488018Isn't that just a beanie?
>>222487075Or a silly restaurant pun
>>222483164When I first saw it, my initial reaction was "club-hopping retards dressed for attention".
>>222488327its a toque
>>222488367That is the correct assessment.
>>22248836799% of people who dress alternatively these days are doing it so they have a new outfit to post to instagram, back then I suppose people copied their looks from magazines and such, but at least you could say it felt more organic even if it is ultimately superficial. It's interesting to note how shallow and generic people like this tend to be, despite their colourful appearance.
>>222482583her name is Dujour (of a particular day or "of the day") and his name is Choi (choice)so it was Choice of the Daythe matrix is not a subtle moviei love it but it's really on the nose the entire time
>>222488018They downloaded how to knit, duh!>>222488225Neo is a bore and sad sack. Can only take a horse to water but you cant make it drink.
>>222482583I remember the pretty one on the front was an Australian soap star. I think she was in home and away.
She and the group represents the fun, uninhibited, goth/mod cyberpunk underworld where there's a possible social life for Mr. Anderson, who is shown as a loner. He stays up hacking or browsing the internet, then wakes up late for work and is scolded by his corporate boss. If you saw The Matrix during your formative years, and if you allowed it to seed something in your subconscious, then you identify with Mr. Anderson (in his feelings of boredom with the normie corporate life)similar movies in that late 90s era: fight club, office spaceSeems like when the corporate system needs fewer office wagies, it signals to hwood to make a movie or show that promotes this anti-office idea. A more recent example: severance. We're now going through a huge layoff cycle in white collar jobs.
corpo job sounds comfy.but then you have to factor in annoying coworkers, clients, bosses, etc.and the fact that the co. takes about 50% of your output. (yes they profit off of your work and pressure you to do even more work)then another 25-40% taxes withheld depending on where you live.also health insur. and 401k.but every day, you're expected to deliver 110%.oh and if you're married, and you give your wife at 50-100% control over the money, and she doesn't work, then the rest is also gone. what you're left with is zero in money, perhaps some savings and investments, a home to go back to, maybe some offspring who carry your genes. but it's just layers upon layers of debt and others lording over you. brutal existence.that's why many cope with alc, pharma, drugs, 1-2 vacations per year.Neo copes by just escaping into the cyberworld, ultimately leading him to morpheus and zion which is basically just sweaty communist blacks and trannies living underground.

We're now going through a huge layoff cycle in white collar jobs.that's because there's AI, DEI, and a bunch of other shit preventing people that need jobs from getting jobs
