Short version: because it's a dumb movie with a stupid plot.
Light came out because he's our saviour, blah blah, allusions to second coming of Jesus etc. The "thing" was an angel, and it probably took him to heaven, where he can finally get acting lessons. The oracle came back because it's not a mega-happy ending otherwise, or because she's an integral part of the machine world so she was reconstructed after being taken over. _________________ After years of disappointment with get rich quick schemes, I know I'm gonna get rich with this scheme.

| As far as the Oracle coming back, to put it simply, she was never gone. Smith was the equivalent of a computer virus and took everyone over by infecting them. Once Neo allowed direct access to the Smith virus through the main computer connection, it was able to delete/purge the Smith virus to restore the original programming...such as a Smith-free (virus-clean) Oracle. |

Basically, Neo is Norton Anti-Virus. And our savior.
Thus, the message is- Norton Anti-Virus is our savior. |

Actually, I always took the ending to be like another version of the Matrix all over again. Like when that guy was explaining to Neo that he was the sixth version, that they now exist in the seventh version, but there is no Smith. People are now allowed to leave the Matrix at their leisure.
I think the plot line sucked, but the fighting scenes were decent. |

For some reason that reminded me of the voice from 'Gauntlet' & 'GauntletII' - "That was a heroic effort." _________________ And he lived happily ever after. Except for the dieing at the end and the heartbreak in between. |

I'm curious. If you think the fighting scenes were only "decent", what movie would have good or great fighting scenes? |

Jet Li's "Fist Of Legend". The fight scenes in Revolutions were bad, all three of them.
Reloaded, though...  _________________ After years of disappointment with get rich quick schemes, I know I'm gonna get rich with this scheme. And quick! |

I think it's rare when Antrax and I agree on tastes , but Reloaded had incredible fight scenes and I thought the movie itself was as good as part 1 with continuing the storyline. Part 3 had nothing special fight scene-wise and they really dropped the ball with the plot as well. |

I agree.
The half hour fight scene in the middle of Reloaded was great. Revolutions... the Zion fight just wasn't that interesting, and there wasn't that much more they could do with Neo vs. Smith. I barely remember anything else that happened, it's been a while.  |

I liked the film only because Monica Bellucci looked fecking horney in it
The film itself never gripped me as all the way through it I was thinking about taking Monica Bellucci home and fu................making her a nice meal. |

*agrees with the comments about Reloaded*
Some other good fight scenes... I'll think about this and get back to you when I can. It's lunchtime now. |

| I never saw three. Mainly because I wasn't that keen on one, and two was horrid. |
