<title>How Gloria Foster changed the Matrix</title>
<description>&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;ve always wondered what Revolutions would have been like if Gloria Foster hadn&amp;#39;t died.&amp;nbsp; Do you think Rama-Kandra, Kamala, and Sati would still have been in it?&amp;nbsp; Or do you think they would still be in it, but without the part about Rama-Kandra trading the killcode for the Oracle to the Merovingian in exchange for Sati being brought into the Matrix?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What do you think?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<title>Re:How Gloria Foster changed the Matrix</title>
<description>I&amp;#39;m sure they would have thought up some way to skip around it. It would have been interesting to see how it would play out if she hadn&amp;#39;t to have died though.&lt;br /&gt;</description>

<title>Re:How Gloria Foster changed the Matrix</title>
<description>I&amp;#39;m think they may know... I&amp;#39;ve read articles where it said the W brothers had the whole trilogy mapped out at the beginning.&amp;nbsp; There may be some way to find out.&lt;br /&gt;</description>

<description>I have to say the second Oracle just seemed pissed off where as the first one played the part a lot better.&lt;br /&gt;</description>

<title>Re:How Gloria Foster changed the Matrix</title>
<description>That&amp;#39;s an interesting find Aqua, and that&amp;#39;s really cool how they manage to push the storyline even further with her passing. Taking inspiration and revisiting old ideas always makes things a lot easier when loosing someone talented in your script and movie.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</description>

<description>Oh, thanks Aquatium!&amp;nbsp; I always thought they just changed the way she looks because Gloria Foster died.&amp;nbsp; It&amp;#39;s nice to know they didn&amp;#39;t have to compromise and instead they were able to enhance what they set out to do in the first place.</description>

<title>Re:How Gloria Foster changed the Matrix</title>
<description>I don&amp;#39;t think we have still yet to see the real her.. no answers nothing.. you think this woman&amp;#39;s just in it to feed birds and bake cookies?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What scares me is during the film&amp;#39;s she had these very dark moments.. Like what she&amp;#39;s saying is evil but she says it in such a way that many people take it wrong. For instance the scene where she tells Neo to take a seat. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also lets face it she created Smith. Not to mention that she&amp;#39;s standing with The Architect at the end.. Alot of people think her saying Neo was alive was a way to show hope.. I think if you rewatch it.. It&amp;#39;s her and The Architect saying &amp;quot;Well be here if you try anything&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also look at the pure malice in The Architects eyes towards the end of his last cinematic.. I think these Intruders might just be pushing him and The Oracle over the edge to give up hope in humanity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</description>
