| I guess I've seen both of these movies too often, 'cause this is from memory:
Oracle: "Now I'm supposed to say, "Hmmm. That's interesting, but-- Then you say--"
Neo: "But what?"
O: "But you already know what I'm going to tell you."
N: "I'm not the One."
O: "Sorry, kiddo. You've got the gift, but it looks like you're waiting for something."
N: "Waiting for what?"
O: "Your next life maybe, I don't know."
So... did she lie? Is Neo simply more powerful than she is? Can she only see down certain lines of the "future?" If Neo's choices are important even at this time, maybe what he's waiting for is more proof for himself that he is the One before he believes it himself. The proof for him that does it is Trinity's confession of love.
What would have happened if she'd told him earlier? Like when she says "You have to be [the One]" and he asks why but she clams up? Hmmmmm... |
