| Aug 1, 2019 at 19:13 | comment | added | GrandOpener | The apparent contradiction of the Oracle saying that Neo is not the One can only be fully explained with the additional context of who she is and what "the One" really means that is given in the sequels. The Matrix is a complete movie on it's own, but it is not the full story of the universe without the sequels. Here's someone who's written a lot more words than me on the subject: room207press.com/2019/07/… (Contains original research, but is quite well reasoned and supported.) | |
