The Matrix...is it real?

i was watching the matrix the other day, and came apon something very strange.

This made me think, is the matrix real? Many people have contemplated that the Matrix is actually a documentary sent by Zion, or something else of that sort. What i saw the other day, almost made me believe in that, but now i'm posting it to see what other people think.

I was going to make a poster for a school project and have the background be the downward scrolling letters that opens up the first matrix movie. i went into Windows Media Player and played the movie as usual and hit "Print Screen" when it got to the right part. Then i went into Paint and pasted the screen capture. when i selected the green letters scrolling down and deleted everything else around it, something weird happened. i would try to move it sideways, but instead of the picture moving, the view scrolled sideways. it was as if part of the picture was hidden, and when i tried to move it, the picture instead scrolled over to reveal what was missing. i could also do it in any direction. up down left right, they all seemed to show a bigger picture. Then i tried moving the view around in paint, and it did the samething! I tried capturing other screens from different parts of the matrix, or different movies, but it only did it on the matrix at that one part. It makes me start to think that there's some kind of message in the movie, like we're not getting the whole picture or something.

Please!!! People, try this for yourselves and see what happens!!! Does anyone have any possible answers that may explain what's going on?

:: not to be rude or anything, but you are rediculous. you think you are in the matrix because you are experiencing paranormal events with your copy of microsoft paint? this is utter nonsense and more probably something to do with the way you use paint. you were probably zoomed in and scrolling around a small section of a larger image and didnt realise it. there are alot of explanations, another being that you are too gulible for your own good... its people like you that keep john edward going.

:: you remind me of that character in the movie "Dead man on campus" that thaught bill gates was after his brain. sounds to me like mr gates already got to yours.

Well, if your USERname is DNT5, then i think the username for your level of self confusion should be TNT5... as in... YOUR BRAIN has exploded 5x over! Im not trying to be mean but this by far is the worst case of matrix syndrome i have ever seen!:confused: :eek: :confused: :eek: :confused: :eek:

:: i predict this guy may shoot people and then in his defence claim he is stuck in the matrix... hey it's the new trend.

haha, you people are taking it way too literally. I mean that the matrix film has something weird going on that may support the theory of it being a documentary from Zion or something. Not saying that just cause the movie's going all weird on my comp, we're in the matrix.

Besides, has anyone else tried this yet? I want to make sure i'm not just talking about my comp. Sheesh...don't list your critism when you haven't tried it yet.

so you're thinking documentary in the sense that Blair Witch Project was a documentary.

I think not, but I have no idea why you're experiencing that. It is nice to know you're sane though.

BTW, I talked to people that held the claim that Blair Witch was "real" even after the whole cast had taken turns on Leno and Letterman, people can delude themselves pretty easily I think.
