From Sophia Stewart comes the next installment of one of the biggest franchises in Hollywood history, “Matrix 4 The Evolution: Cracking the Genetic Code.”
Wait; from who comes what? I thought that the Wachowski brothers wrote the Matrix, is this Sophia person trying to cut into their mythos?
Well, this is a book review and not an episode of everything you ever wanted to know about a sorted copyright infringement affair but were too busy watching the Matrix to research. Let us put it this way; Matrix 4 is a “book” which is actually a script (written in traditional script form) from which a movie can be produced. Within it, we finally get a big clue as to who John Connor is. Wait, what? This is getting stranger and weirder. John Connor is from another of the biggest franchises in Hollywood history namely, the Terminator franchise, is this Sophia person trying to cut into James Cameron and Gale Anne Hurd’s mythos as well?
Legal battles (about which you can read here) which have been ongoing for years have determined that to Sophia Stewart belong the rightful ownership of, both, the Matrix and Terminator franchises. You can read all about it at Truth About Matrix and Matrix Terminator. The long and short of it is that Sophia is “the oracle” within the Matrix mythos. She wrote a book titled The Third Eye from which, without credit nor financial compensation, the Matrix and Terminator franchises were birthed; thus, Sophia is also known as the mother of the Matrix.
It is from her context that one can discern what is the real “Matrix,” who is the person simply named “Neo,” who is “John Connor [J.C.],” what is the relation between the two mythos…and why on Earth was the Terminator naked?
Here is some background on Sophia from her website:
Writer of the Terminator and Matrix movies Child prodigy, prolific writer, poet and creative genius are just a few of the terms used to describe Sophia Stewart. Stewart enters the City University of New York and received her Bachelor of Arts Degree in journalism and minors in law and psychology. While attending the University, she studied under the guidance of many celebrated authors and writers…She, also, served as an intern for television at the Public Broadcasting Station WNET Thirteen, where she worked with Oscar winning film documentary producer, Perry Miller Adato.
Her graduating class was honored with a special letter/citation from President Jimmy Carter…she studied cinema at the University of Southern California (USC). It was there she had the opportunity to study film…By the early 80’s she had started writing professionally…It was at Columbia Pictures where [Columbia Pictures Vice President] Dick Berres supported her aspirations to write and gave Sophia five first draft scripts…She is an accomplished award-winning poet who has published over one hundred poems.
NAACP Award In December, 2005, Sophia Stewart was awarded the NAACP Rosa Parks Award for her contribution to the film industry…she also got the honor award for empowering the people from the Las Vegas Music Awards in September 2006. On June 2, 2007 she was nominated for the international award called: ‘Lifting Up the World with a Oneness Heart.’ An award offered to people who have made exceptional contributions to the human family…
The site noted that “In The Third Eye, she has transformed comprehensive metaphysical and spiritual concepts into the most revered science fiction films of the 20th century.” Indeed, she writes in terms that combine concepts of evolution with mysticism with a little J.C. thrown in to the mix. Now, I would say that what this means depends on how we define the terms evolution and mysticism (and J.C. for that matter but I do not want to cross the line into spoiler territory). Yet, Sophia would state, or so I think, that the definition is not as important as the vibration, the code, those terms evoke or produce.
One example of this is the following, “a baby in a woman’s womb showing its gills from living in water until he arrives to earth.” Now, this hearkens back to the long discredited claims of ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny by Ernst Haeckel but just what is meant by “arrives to earth”? Hence, the above referenced combination of concepts.
Interestingly, since Matrix 4 The Evolution: Cracking the Genetic Code was copy written in 2010 it begins with “a monologue foreshadowing scenes of the 2012 prophecy” when “The evolution of the Earth was fulfilled in the realization of the prophecy” which means that the story will either be set in an alternate reality Earth or the date and result of the prophecy will have to be edited within the movie. One result from the fulfillment is, “Before the polar shift, man’s greatest life expectancy was one hundred twenty years, but now it has been extended to nine hundred years.” Well, in at least part of the script, we are catapulted to the year 2525 AD.
We also learn of “the machine’s planet” and that at one point, “We actually got this technology from the planet of the machines” so that there is some reverse engineering of sort occurring. We also learn about “free energy.”
Back on Earth we also travel to the Giza pyramids in Egypt where a hovercraft “passes over what looks like the eye of Osiris shaped by rocks and trees on the water.”
Within the script we encounter some of the traditional characters within the Matrix mythos and meet some new ones—along with a special guest appearance by the T-800 Terminator; this is going to be (or rather, continue being) epic!
The fact that we all have the Matrix movies in mind makes this book / script very user friendly as since it contains narration and direction, such as fade in, etc., we get a great set of visuals and the story comes to life within the mind of the reader.
For being such a complex and involved story, it is very easy and fun to read as the reader can very easily fit the mythos, both of them, thus far and take off from there well into the future.
Read it now and when the movie comes out you can sound cool saying, “The book was better” ;o)
