The Bomb was only disarmed for 3 minutes so while hes in there talking the power comes back on as u see while Neo is flying out the power around the building (all the little buildings) is back on so the bomb was back on. it could have been considered his rage but it was actualy the bomb since that was the first time the One ever took that Door becoz nomraly he chose to re insert the prime code. u see him flying out of the door although he walks out from the room....weird huh

I don't know about the "bomb was only disarmed for 3 minutes" part, but you do make a good point that Neo is walking out of the Architect's room but then you see him flying out of the door. The whole scene just didn't make much sense.

Neo never really entered the white room, he, for lack of a better term, was recalled there. I mean we see him put the key in the knob, turn it, then the bright light, followed by him then standing where he was standing.

remember how they say "how long will the power be out"

and the key maker says somthing like 480 seconds

well they were diffinetly talking for longer than that

**sontag**

Well the only reason the power was off was because Trinity hacked the
city powr grid and manually turned off the back up nodes. Someone could
easily have walked into the room and re-activated the nodes, thusly
restoring power and making it so the bomb could be triggered.

Guys pleese watch the movie again After the Key Maker say to them that they have to Blow Up the power station and disable the back up systems he says that the power will be out for ???seconds and then somone says" thats alittle over 3 minuts"

because the machines quickly take control of the situation.

Actually, what the Keymaker says is, "Once the door is unprotected, the connection will be severed, but another connection must first be made. <How long will that take?> Exactly 314 seconds."

I don't think this is a reference to how long the electricity will be out (or that it will auto-restart), but rather he is referring to the amount of time it will take the machines to establish a new connection to the Source once the original connection has been unprotected (something totally different).

Still, I do think it's possible that the power was restarted by someone else.

The Agent that remained in the building could have restarted the emergency system.

And I find it interesting that you're saying that the people who worked on that scene are wrong. Still, nobody has to accept them.

Well, since you didn't provide any direct link to what you quoted from the special effects crew, I really don't know what they actually said, vs. your interpretation of what they said. Besides, most things about the Matrix are open to interpretation anyway.

It can probably be found in here, in the 28 page article named "Neo Realism"

Thanks for the link, but you forgot to provide me with your credit card number so I could pay the $15.00 they require, just so I can substantiate someone else's claim.... :smileyindifferent:

The fire doesn't represent anything to me, other than the intent to cover **bleep** poor scripting with a cool effect, and then blatantly cover it up as some sort of rage, but hey, movies have been doing that for years.

Generally speaking, yes, bomb went off, that much was made clear, that once that conenction was recreated, the bomb would be triggered. You can cut it as many ways as you want, but that's the simple fact of things.

Second, the Architect was in his own private construct, outside of the Matrix proper, thus why he is never bothered by Smith, or even hit by the reboots the Matrix goes through. Since his construct is seperate from the Matrix proper, we don't know exactly what Neo actually had to go through to physically go from the Construct back to the building he was at, sinceit was evident he was recalled after he put the key in the door. So that explains the agian, poor scripting and blowing up of the door flyby non-sense.

And as a last note, i don't buy any non-sense about rage made manifest. If it was, it was done very shodily. As far as I am concerned, Neo was just flying throught he building floor as it was exploding from the bomb, which, might I rmeind ppl, is talked about I believe in the first or second Sentinel here (which I am quite sure the Wachowski's helped with).
