I liked how at the beginning The Analyst say Tom hates his cat but it ends with Neo holding it. This was another thing The Analyst was gaslighting Neo about. Especially, since The Analyst keeps the cat close every time he uses his special powers like slowing time or erasing the gunfight. So Deja-Vu seems to be somehow connected to this ability to reset the Matrix and change its physics rules. Neo being the one holding it in that last confrontation underlines that he and Trinity are in the control now.

Also, modal code is code that puts ALL other processes on hold while it executes, it's typically used where threaded processes are all returning values to be combined or evaluated together, so that none of the other threads can proceed until the data they've produced is resolved. Here it looks like each 'modal' is a decision point, where multiple simulation runs are brought together and resolved.

This might be a stretch, but it appears that Neo and Trinity each have a blue and red glow on them at the 24:03 mark, possibly illustrating an "opposite attraction" or further showing the different paths with taking the red or blue pill. In this case, "maybe" the colors represents the machines attempts to keep them apart on separate simulations and/or realities, so the two wont eventually meet in the Matrix.

Seq is also short for "sequence" in coding, which works for his character since he is the one that codes the portals for people to transport through the Matrix.

Seq in programming is short for Sequence, as in a function that allows multiple functions to run one after another super quickly as if at the same time like how he functions as an operator while projects into the Matrix

The number of Sense8 actors in this, was amazing.

Awesome video, with tons of stuff I didn't know about. Thanks!

To me it really boils down to how our life is so interconnected with algorithms nowadays and how easily we’re managed and controlled by it and if we’re not “plugged” in then we feel depressed just as Neo does despite being the famous developer of the best game ever. I absolutely loved the movie but although with all the emphasis on making “Trinity” as part of being the equivalent of being the one was a bit of a stretch, I understand Neo programming being passed onto or mixed due to previous movies but still i felt Neo should’ve been the one being the beholder of power of the one. Hugo Weaving and Laurence Fishburne not being involved took the wow factor out a bit plus not having big fight scenes and chases scenes but overall movie reflected more toward how our society is nowadays. I hope they make 2 more Matrix movies for sure.

About the flock thing. It is foreshadowing the world is just a simulation. You know in video games, the animal AIs tend to repeat the same patterns.

One thing I thought I picked up on but wasn't mentioned here, was that previously the idea of salvation was freeing everyone from the Matrix, as if all humans wanted to be freed. This movie seemed to suggest at the end that Neo and Trinity will now give humans the choice to stay in the matrix or unplug from it, thus truly creating a co-existence with the machines. True freedom. The Humans who want to stay plugged into their altered reality can stay ("ignorance is bliss") and those who want to see behind the curtain and live in the real world, but without all the frills and comforts of the Matrix can do so. Inevitably they'll be some humans who stay, and thus the machines can continue to use them as batteries. Co-existence (as deranged as that all seems).

Good point. To dovetail on, if you recall Smith said it failed the first time the machines did it because it was "perfect". That speaks to how we "need" and lust for conflict in order to feel fulfilled. We constantly have to rank things (Jordan v. Kobe v. LeBron), have winners and losers (any sports), and victim/savior complex (disaster of some sort v. 'praised heroes'). So if none of those conflicts existed, so many people would have no 'purpose'.
