computer-generated dream world built to keep us under control in order to change a human being into a battery.

The Matrix was the brilliant construction and engineering feat of the unified race of machines that solved man's infinite hunger for the Earth's finite resources. Rather than occupying real space on the Earth's surface; burning real fossil fuels exumed from within the Earth's crust; decimating real rain forests that once populated nearly all of the land mass of the planet, man has been reborn in a simulation. On a side note: the human body is not really the most efficient / abundant dynamo available to the machine race for transforming biochemical energy into heat and electricity, but this is what the machines would like us to believe, in order to maintain man's perception of the machine race as one of "pure horrifying precision," against which (and this is the key) a war is completely futile. The sooner you accept your new reality, the happier you will become.
In the film "The Matrix," the machines offered Cypher a grand life, even as his human "companions" took it from him!

For about 90% of internet-users the matrix is defined in Winuser.h

For about 9% of the very same population, the matrix is reality.

For the rest of that population, the matrix is a two-dimensional array.

Outside that population it's a Scifi/fantasy movie.

A series of movies that was absolutely the most awesome thing on earth...until the last two minutes of the third movie when the whole thing got shot to hell, along with all of my admiration for the Wachowskis. Actually, NOTHING got shot to hell. That was the problem. A freakin' TRUCE?! Come on!
At least Neo died. "I know kung fu." Give me a break.

When someone walks in on a couple engaged in the exchanging of tongues and possibly bodily fluids, the partner on top performs a Neo like move to quickly dismount his or her partner to avoid a possibly embarrassing situation.
Dude, I totally saw Skyler Matrix his way off of Tina, I think they may have been doing the dirty.
