Maybe this will help.
This is a quick sort of MATRIX FOR DUMMIES that explains the series. Take no offense I don't think of anyone as dumb, but there is a lot of confusion about this series, especially the ending to Revolutions. NOTE SPOILERS ALL THROUGH THIS REVIEW.Zion is real! The Matrix is not. The Matrix was designed to provide a mental stimulus for the human bodies connected to the machines as a source of power. This is the sixth version of the Matrix. There have been multiple versions of the Matrix because of a flaw in the program (kinda of like Windows). That flaw is giving individuals the ability to choose. The first Matrix was designed as a perfect uptopia (see pt. I - Smith explains it to Morpheus; pt. II - The Architect explains it again)but humans did not accept it as real. It was redesigned to reflect our civilization at it's last stage before it was taken over by the machines (the year 1999). The Architect's problem with this new design (the anomoly)of the Matrix is that it require individuals to think freely, i.e. choice. It was the Oracle that suggested he redesign the Matrix in this way. But since humans have choices, so must the programs sent to watch over them, i.e. The Agents, thus bringing us the problem that is Mr. Smith. In Reloaded, The Architect continues to speak of the anomoly he is unable to get rid of, which is why at some point, he feels the only solution is to destroy the Matrix and those who are aware of it (the people of Zion) and start from scratch again. The Oracle says it clearly in Revolutions. Mr. Smith is the result of the anomoly trying to balance itself. Mr. Smith began to think freely and the result was a negative one. Realize this, he is a similar program to the One so he is far more dangerous than a normal individual who makes bad decisions. Mr. Smith's virus like behavior happened in EVERY VERSION OF THE MATRIX. The result would always lead to the same thing -- a system crash if they didn't quickly reboot the system. The same knee jerk reaction you have when you realize someone has sent you a virus. The One program was created to solve this problem. But each version of the One ultimately failed. Neo is different, in Reloaded he choose the door that led to Trinity, not the door that RESETS the program. Note: The Architect even noticed that Neo's experience in the Matrix was different than all the rest, realizing he was the first of them to fall in love. Onto Revolutions: Neo's choice has changed everything. The system is still threatened, so the Oracle makes a new choice; one she has never done before because no version of the One has ever chosen the difficult path as opposed to easy one of just resetting the system. She allows herself to become merged with Smith in the hopes that she'll be able to help Neo when the time is right. Neo makes another unique choice. He goes to the machines and asks for peace as opposed to simply destroying the system by going through the opposite door as all other versions of the One did. It was a simple as that to save Zion. Machines don't need very long to process that this may be a better idea than just constantly resetting the system. At the end, Smith says to Neo the movies tagline, as the Oracle is speaking to Neo through Smith. Neo realizes it all along, the only way to end this is to sacrifice himself. The Oracle noted that Neo and the Source (the computer mainframe, the Architect they're all one and the same so don't get confused) are connected which is why he can control machines outside the Matrix. He uses this connection to his advantage. He becomes a Mr. Smith and since all the Smith's are connected, the Source now has a lock on Smith and simply deletes him. Pretty simple huh? For those that like biblical references, note the Jesus references all through the movie. Heck, the French Man is the Devil, just read the elevator button Morpheous presses when he goes to see him for the second time. The Architect must be God - i.e. he destroys the world as has you to chose a select group of people to restart Zion again sort of like Noah's Ark. Neo is Jesus, the one who realizes that peace and love is the answer, not war. And the Oracle represents the Holy Spirit - the conciousness that resides in all of us. It's a deep trilogy if you PAY ATTENTION

I new that much. But why does the Oracle look different, and why does Neo have the ablility to control the machines in the real world, and why, when he goes blind, can he see the machines still? Why? why? Why?
In the words of Neo himself whoa! Great explanation!

He just told how Neo could control machines in the real world. As for the Oracle she looks different because the original actress passed away before filming the 3rd movie and they had to use a different actress.
because the actress who played the oracle died is what I heard... So they had to try to do something about that

Good explanation. My mind was spinning the wheels and now I have TRACTION.
TrueBlue'01gt- Your car looks sweet. One of the better ones I have seen. Not too done up but very sleek looking. The wing looks different to me.

this is a heavy movie guys. they should come out with another movie called matrix the answer to all your questions
They gave a crappy reason for the actress changing, they claimed that it was because the merovangalist found her and she needed a new shell to remain hidden.
Yes, he goes blind but he can still see the machines because he is wired into the mainframe. If you noticed when he was fighting Agent Smith in the hovership all he could see was Agent Smith glowing like fire. The rest of the shit he could not see. When he got up to the surface of the Earth where he was surrounded by everything made by the machines he was able to see all his surroundings.
So was Neo just a program this whole time or was he half human/half program?? That's what didn't make sense to me.
neo is all human, he was not bred by the machines, he is the enevitability of the problem, choice.
then why does Traction say the One is a program? And then he says that Neo and the Source are one in the same. How the hell could they be one in the same if Neo is all human.
I'm sorry, but Revolutions did a crappy job of explaining anything.
Neo destroyed Smith in the first Matrix...well how the hell did he survive and how is he able to copy himself to the point where he takes over the Matrix. None of this is explained whatsoever. How does Neo get stuck in this Train Man program after stopping the sentinals? Then after rescuing him they are able to unplug him from the Matrix....well he was never plugged in in the first place. It was a great movie. The fight scenes were great...the final battle between Neo and Smith was amazing, but the ending left a lot to be explained. Almost like there needs to be a 4th Matrix.

She looks different because the actress that played the oracle (forget her name now) died during filming, so they replaced her with someone close. (at least thats what I've heard)
