The Matrix trilogy had a tremendous start to the 21st century. Whose timeless and future-proof concept made this trilogy a very cult fanbase that's going to be even more after the upcoming The Matrix Resurrection.

But before enjoying the 4th movie of Matrix, why not plenarily understand the concept of the entire Matrix so that the fun of watching this movie will increment manifold.

If you want to know Why and How Matrix was created? when and where was the Matrix started? Why did The Oracle support humans? What happened to Morpheus?

So this article we are going to talk about the origin, history, and timeline of The Matrix.

Machines Vs Humans

We got to see the origin of The Matrix in an anime movie called The Animatrix which was released in 2003 after Matrix Reloaded.

The Story of Matrix started when humans at the start of the 21st century, created an A.I., which started a whole race of sentient machines and this artificial intelligence created a self-aware species of robots.

By the coming of the year 2099, the machines themselves had taken the responsibility of all heavy lifting of the humans, where they used to work for the humans like laborers and servants.

Now as the machines have their own intelligence, this is the reason for their opposition and this protest starts with a house servant robot named B-66ER which listens to its owner that he is going to dismantle it. 

B1-66ER kills his owner as he felt threatened for his life and he claims that he did it in his self-defense and he should have all the rights like a living being.

But humans completely reject his point of view and stop manufacturing it by completely discontinuing his model and his product line. 

Few humans support machines against this decision, but still, humans and government start destroying sentient machines.

Machines after this massacre gathered in Mesopotamia and here they make their own country named 01. 01 Coexisted around humans for many years and the science and technology of this country is far ahead of humans

01 starts manufacturing its futuristic technology and sells around the world and 01's both economy and defense grow strong and dominating.

All these things start to hurt and jealousy among humans, despite this 01 extends a hand of friendship to humans and sends their representatives to join itself in the United Nations.

Humans are against this thing and without thinking anything, they attacked 01 with nuclear weapons, due to which a huge fight breaks out between humans and machines.

Where humans block 01's main energy source by covering the sun by operation "Dark Storm" and there is darkness all over the world, due to which all kinds of plants and animals in the world were almost finished.

After that humans had no way left, they surrendered themselves in front of the machines on the year 2199.

Creation of The Matrix(Why and How Matrix was created?)

Now here the war between humans and machines is over, but due to lack of energy source
machines use the human body's Bio Electricity as a primary source of Energy. Also, the brains of humans were helpful in the processing of machines.

Machines Create a program named The Architect, which creates a virtual reality of sustained suspended animation named The Matrix. 

The Third time Machines create a new program to understand the humans' named The Oracle.

The Oracle begins to understand humans and she suggests that nothing can be imposed on humans and they will remain distracted until they believe that they are living their lives on their own terms and that for themselves. Humans make all their choices themselves, even if those choices are subconsciously fitted in their minds.

This was the reason that The Oracle already knew all the future decisions and actions of every human being. 

Eventually, Oracle and Architect together created a new Matrix, based on real-world of Humans in the 90s.

Of course, this Matrix wasn't a perfect Matrix but this time The Oracle and The Architect work together to fix all these shortcomings for which all the anomalies are gathered together to put inside a random person born in The Matrix. Who eventually known as The One.

The One and His purpose

In The Matrix Trilogy, Neo was not only The One but there were also exactly five more The Ones before Neo.

Actually, as The Architect and oracle take out all the anomalies of The Matrix and put it inside the mind of a random human and this process repeats every hundred years for the creation of The One.
Where The One has to follow the path of the one, which leads him to The Architect.

Then The Architect gives The One, the option of either saving 23 humans(16 Womes, and 7 men) or destroys all humans.

But here Neo rejects, the offer of saving 23 Zions because he was in love with Trinity, and he chooses to save her. Amid this machines starts a war against Humans of Zion.

Neo and The machines come to a truce of defeating the virus of Agent Smith. In return, The Architect agrees to free humans who want out of The Matrix. 

The Story After The Matrix Trilogy

The Story will continue after this which is gonna be explained in the fourth installment of The Matrix.

So here's The Matrix 4 trailer breakdown.

The Matrix Universe is a random thing. When this movie was released, it had become the cinematic bible of the whole world, the whole world was crazy about it.

What concept, what action, something as unmatchable as if some revolution has been brought

But well now as The Matrix 4 is about to come. Let's break down the trailer. 

Neo and Trinity are still alive

At the beginning of the trailer, the same story of Red Pill and Blue Pill is seen, but still, the biggest question is how are Neo and Trinity alive.

 So in the opening shot of the trailer, we see an older version of him still alive in the Matrix as Thomas A Anderson who is actually undergoing therapy.

Here's our cyber messiah in the latest version of The Matrix but with only a few faint memories of his past.

In the trailer, we get to see this union of Neo and Trinity in a coffee shop in a short while where both of them are engaged in the same struggle with the question that 'have I seen you anywhere?'

Now here the biggest question is that how Neo and Trinity are still alive?, we saw them dying, the biggest argument that comes out from this is that they have any physical body outside available in their real-life or not and maybe it is also Neo may be sharing his consciousness with an intelligent machine and he may have transferred all his Conscious Ness to the Matrix before he died, but in some shorts of the trailer we get to see Neo's body where he doesn't have eyes, but machines are still making him alive like Superman.

A New Matrix World

Now onwards we see Matrix still looks like a very futuristic and peaceful world and here they have given their green color palette side by side with more emphasis on blue and red.

Now as we know the world of the Matrix that there's a lot of things that are connected and pre-programmed, where everything is happening for some reason. So changing the color palette of the movie is a big deal.

Now as we know that there was a peace treaty that occurred between Mankind and Machines in the original trilogy and Neo and Trinity gave up their lives.

And after that, we get to see a very important short where Neo's face is seen very differently in the mirror which also leads to speculation that Neo and Trinity have hijacked someone else's body like the agents used to do. And further, we see that a police officer's body has been hijacked, which leads to the realization that the Matrix still needs these terminator programs like these agents to keep the peace.

Now we see an even more interesting thing that a person can be brought alive in the real-world pod, here it is not completely confirmed but it may be Trinity.

The machines also know that Neo is a high-value asset and they will need his entire body, not just his brain, to resurge him and so is the title of the Matrix movie The Matrix Resurrection.

New Characters

In the trailer, we get to see many new characters like Neil Patrick Harris who is the therapist of Neo, next we get to see the character of Yahya Abdul Mateen who looks exactly like Young Morpheus, right in the emphasis of the original story. Morpheus gives him the red pill.

Like The Matrix, we get to see the iconic Dojo fight in this too but this time instead of saying 'I know kungfu' Neo says 'you don't know me'.

We can see the character Jessica Henwick in this trailer. Where it is debatable whether she is with Neo or not.

Colour Symbolism of Matrix

       

After all, when you start paying attention to the color symbolism of this story, you will see that the story turns completely.

Morpheus' avatar dominates Red, he wears red even during Dojo fights, but where Jessica Henwick's character comes in, she always gives Blue an emphasis as a permanent choice represented by her hair. 

Now in the story as we are talking about color symbology, now the color motive of the whole matrix, we get to see in the trailer as if she has kept the color palette of the whole matrix blue, the therapist's glasses are also blue, Morpheus' color selection is red, but unlike this, not much detail has been given about red and blue in the original trilogy of Matrix.

Jonathan Groff's character

So the conclusion is drawn that running away from the Matrix is ​​not a solution because real life is going on inside the Matrix.

Now a little beyond this we also get to see the character of Jonathan Groff, who already knows Matrix, Neo, and keep all the kinds of stuff and information about his past and it is also rumored that he should be the creator of the Matrix, which means that he is a representative architect.

Easter Eggs

But in the teaser itself, we came to know that its mouth is also being closed in the same way as Neo was being tortured with mouth erasing, so it becomes clear that he is a human and also in this trailer we got to see a lot of details and easter eggs from the previous stories. Where again Neo gets to see that black cat emphasis from his original story.

Then comes the most awaited scene of the trailer where Priyanka Chopra who is reading 'Alice in the Wonderland' has an indirect connection to it like she also has some minor information about the Matrix and with this, including its background; The White Rabbit song of 'Jefferson Airplane' is playing and surprisingly Henwick's character hand also has a White Rabbit tattoo which is connected somehow.

Now in a scene of the most interesting question, Why Neo is playing with a plastic duck?

But it can also be a reference to deep computer programming such as rubber duck debugging, where a computer programmer explains his own program line by line in simple terms.

Because as Morpheus said in the first movie itself that the original sense of the Matrix cannot be explained by anyone, which means Neo will have to debug the puzzle of this Matrix in The matrix 4 movie by himself.
