: 1) I've never understood why they are so quick to kill normal people in the matrix. Like in the first movie were they kill all the guards. The are just normal people who live in their own world, who have familys who love them and Neo and the gang will just kill them without giving it second thought.
~~ Sometimes to make an omelette you need to break a few eggs. I think the main reason is that the Smiths can put themselves into anyone. If they don't kill these innocents they may soon turn into Smiths.
: 2) Where are the robots? These things that need humans to power them? Are they just those sentinal (sp) things? Maybe that will be explained it part 3.
~~ Check out the Animatrix shorts. They explain that pretty well
: 3) Why not cows? http://pvponline.com/archive.php3?archive=20030512 That really makes sense!
~~ Because it wasn't cows that were ruling the planet. If it was, the machines wouldn't have existed anyways.
