Matrix revolutions was released today, and critics everywhere have convinced me not to go see it.
But then, I'm stuck asking myself "What happens next ?". Well, since the Wachowski Brothers seem to have ruined the Matrix Trilogy plot, I figured I'd stay away from it, and ... make my own story.
Let's go back to Matrix: Reloaded, at the moment where the architect ask Neo to choose between the two doors. In my seperate script, Neo pushes the "you won't let mankind disappear, you need its energy" point a tad further, and actually threatens the machines, represented by the Architect, to take them all down with the rest of mankind. The idea being, if Zion can be protected, mankind survives and the machines stop to a grinding halt. And dutifully, Neo takes the door back to the Matrix.
Fast forward. He saves trinity, tells Morpheus that the Prophecy's a lie, they escape the Nabbuchadnezzar before it explodes, then Neo stops the Sentinels through the Matrix by "touching" the Machines' mainframes, and his mind gets lost somewhere on the way back to his body.
-- there begins my version of the last movie
Then the Oracle finds Neo. He tells her the architect's words, and she comments that the architect's error is to "think he knows everything there is to know about mankind". She then urges him to head for the Machines' headquarters in the Matrix (because it'd be plain impossible via the real world).
Meanwhile, Trinity and Morpheus get Neo's inanimated but breathing body back to Zion. But the argue violently on the subject of the Prophecy: Morpheus simply refuses to believe that it is a lie, Trinity rejects the whole thing (which almost killed her loved one), and the fight propagates to Zion's Council and Captains' Assembly. Niobe takes side with Morpheus, who still believes that Neo will save them.
Needless to say, this division makes the defense against the incoming Sentinel Army quite problematic. Morpheus' followers bring Neo to the "church" and barricade there, while the others brace for the impact.

I have not yet all the details, but here's what happens next: the machines invade Zion while Neo barely escapes Smith, which has taken over almost everything in the Matrix (his goal being Complete Takeover). Then he manages to meet with some representative of the Machines, which are Quite Annoyed by the state of their affairs, to say the least: on one side, the Matrix and all its human prisoners are bound to disappear because of Neo's choice and Smith's uprising, and since their own networks and power supplies rely on the Matrix, this means near-complete Doom to them. As battle rages in Zion and Niobe and Morpheus and Trinity and Mifune and Locke and all the others try to defend their city or their prophet's body, Neo negociates with the machines.
Conclusion:
The machines let humans live and help them go colonize other planets (Mars ?) and in exchange Neo rids them of Smith. The Earth's sky is blue again. Or something along this. The Prophecy was actually right, and the Oracle rejoices that the Matrix won't disappear completely.
Anyone cares to help me further design this end to the Matrix Trilogy ?
