The whole "Matrix and Terminator Series were really One" story

[Groo The Perverted]

Okay, so you may or may not remember one Sophia Stewart (sometimes printed as Sofia Stewart) who came forward and claimed that the Matrix movies were a product of her ideas that were stolen from her by the studios who had passed on her book "The Third Eye".

She came up with a few ideas that seemed to make at least a little sense, and make some people say "hmmm...I don't necessarily believe this, but it does sound intriguing"

What got ME to really be interested, while I didn't believe her, was when she brought in the Terminator series and claimed that was actually a part of the story as well.

Now follow me, because I'll be moving in a circular motion, and if you pay attention, there will be a POINT! (sorry had to go there)

Basically she claimed that in her original story and ideas, the Matrix series and Terminator series were one.

The Matrix is synonymous with Skynet, I suppose, and John Connor/Neo were one person.

That the Matrix and the Agents, realizing that they needed to snuff out Neo, sent a machine back to when he was not yet born, to kill Neo's mother, thus deleting everything that would happen.

Now when I heard this I was like "Holy SHIT! that's awesome!"

I mean it kind of makes sense, and kind of doesn't, but it's flipping awesome to think about that, no?

Ok, The Terminator and The Matrix are actually “one book”. That’s my "Third Eye" manuscript. It’s nine chapters but it's all from the same source (no pun intended) Terminator starts from the front of my book to the back. Matrix starts from the back of my book and works its way to the front. They are moving in two opposite directions. My book was separated into two. "The Third Eye" is an epic, my book spans three time frames the past, the present and the future. Those films do the same thing. The child in the first Terminator who is born to the pregnant lady (Sarah Connor) grows up to be the same as the grown man character in the Matrix called Neo, it’s that chosen one, savior concept. Matrix starts in the future, when technology has taken over. The Terminator was sent to kill the child who was prophesized to destroy the machines. That intersects directly with Neo as being the one prophesized to bring the machine reign to an end. One critic who is unaware of my lawsuit called the movies cousins but they are actually one in the same in the original.

How awesome is it to think about those movies being connected and essentially telling the same story? There's discrepancies in the films that kind of discredit that, but still. Interesting, nonetheless.
