Can we stop talking about that stuff and maybe discuss craptastic movies? As for crappy movies I nominate Blair Witch Project 2: Book of Shadows. I really enjoyed the first one. This one was crap.

To give you an idea about this movie... PRE PRODUCTION MEETING Guy 1: We need a movie idea. Guy 2: We should convince people that government healthcare is good. Guy 1: Ok. I think Denzel Washington is popular with the kids. Guy 2: Ok. Lets have Denzel be the poor, down on his luck lower middle class black guy. Guy 1: Now we're thinking! Lets demonzie hospitals and private insurance companies too! Making money is evil! Intern: Guy 1, someone hit your Jag in the parking lot. Guy 1: darnit! I gotta go. Guy 2, you make this happen!

*cough*. Sorry, had to get that out of my system.
Supposedly, the last two episodes (the explanation of instrumentality, and Shinji being interrogated) are what's going on in Shinji's head during the events of the movie. If you think about it that way, the movie makes a hell of a lot more sense.
I know that. I still think that the last 2 episodes and the movie sucked. They changed it from being a good mecha anime with an actual plot to a pointless circle-running affair which 99% of the viewers didn't understand. Why did they change a good thing?
Lets assume for a moment that machines have devised a 100% efficient energy collection process from the humans. so every joule of energy they put in, they get back out
lets also assume that they want to keep this process going on as long as possible.
lets also assume that each human requires exactly the same amount of energy
all of these are reasonable assupmtions, so we must conclude that to keep the human power plant going, each human needs to pass on its energy to the next human, therefore leaving no energy for the machines.
now lets assume that the machines also want in on this energy source, so they tap 10% of the energy for themselves.
this means that only 90% of the energy goes to the humans, so, 90% from 10 humans = 900%. if we then pass this energy onto the next generation, we end up by only being able to support 9 humans = 900%/100% = 9.
it is obvious therefore, that each generation, the machines would lose 10% of thier crop.
even if they only tap 1%, they still lose one human per 100, and eventually, the whole thing would just grind to a stop.
it is impossible (it has been proven) that you cannot make a >100% effecient machine.
my conclusion:
if the matrix does work, without a power source as abundandt as the sun, it will very quicly grind to a halt.</span></span>
