+ Show Spoiler + erm...the ending is a truce between the machines and the humans after seven previous successful attempts at eradicating Zion and then allowing the humans to repopulate etc etc. It's the first time in the movies' canon that the machines haven't been in complete control of the fate of the human race, so how is that a victory for them exactly? I mean, it's not a victory for mankind either, but it's basically a stalemate due to Neo's actions. I guess what I'm saying is, please define how they "won" at the end. | ||

And yeah, my thread got deleted cause I didn't spoiler it. :/ | ||

And put more work into the OP - provide some ramifications for the debate, explain something ... one question is a disaster topic in the making. | ||

Zion has been saved, and will grow in size with the influx of freed minds. from http://www.thematrix101.com/revolutions/meaning.php | ||
