»What happens once the Matrix is destroyed ?«

If all humans wake up in the real world at the same time it would result in chaos .
I also had another question that has been bugging me . Why does Bane cut his hand before he tried to stab Neo ?

Yep, that's why at the end of Revolutions the Matrix will still exist. And maybe because it comes out, that the Matrix is voluntary and wanted by humans.

Not known, maybe he is cuttin a "Pi" symbol inside his hand to show that he stops the cycle now. Or maybe he wants to infect Neo. Or mark him.

I think that Smith is representing the freedom associated with madness.
Neo is on the other side of the spectrum representing the freedom that comes with serenity/enlightenment. That may be why Smith cuts himself, and is seen in the trailer laughing like the Joker.

The thing with the humans is definately a problem. They wouldn't have food or water or heat or any semblance of sanity....but I think all of the people hooked up to the system have been overwritten by Smith already anyway. By the end of Enter the Matrix, it seems like 85-90% of the "pedestrians" have been Smithed. So, I don't really have a clue what November will bring.

That was one my theories . My other theory is that Smith might want to know what pain feels like , he wants to feel what a human feels . But then this wouldn't explain why he cut himself right before stabing Neo .

It wouldn't make sense for Neo to destroy the Matrix , he should instead take control of it and then gradually free people . But it could be argued that 99% of the humans accepted the matrix , so maybe that means that they choose to live in the matrix and they don't want to get out .

The matrix must be wanted . This was my theory from the start , and the more I think about it , the more sense it makes .

This is also supported by the miserable life in Zion.
Zion is such a bad place that it makes you want the Matrix.

I don't know about that , there were a lot of beautiful women in that dance scene .

the question you asked was what happens after the matrix is destroyed...
well if the matrix was destroyed it would firstly undoubtedly result in chaos from which a new system of control would emerge. look at our society today. soceity is divided into three classes; the upper (our machines), the middle (our workers) and lower ( their function is mainly for societies fuel(energy source) or useful for manipulation and gaining power, in short the upper class need them to stay in control)
the humans that were free (people of ZIon) will probably have control over the masses and will try and set rules and regulations for teh rest of society...what will be the eventual and ultimate outcome is reflected in out capitalist socieities...in short nothing will change.

Trojan , you are explaining a long term result . We are talking here about the imidiate result of the matrix being destroyed . Can you imagine 6 billion people waiking up at the same time in the real world . Total chaos .
