Important movie for me, I saw it when it was released.
The concept of a software/holographic reality intrigued me. It led me to discover the holographic universe theory. The thought that in order for there to be a "hologram" there needed to be an external container troubled me. That destroys the point. If reality is a hologram, who cares? It's not the corporeal reality, the container is, that is what I want to know about. As my thinking hadn't moved on yet, that was unacceptable.
Then I was, well all I can say is led to John 1 and I started to think, is God non-corporeal? And if other Quantum Mechanics guys are telling me the universe is just probability at the fundamental level and only comes into existence through the application of consciousness, well... is that not the sort of description someone would come up with if they were seeing the process of thought from the inside? What if the holograms external container was thought, analogous to a complex lucid dream. How does that apply to John 1... God is thought and all the is and ever has been is God. We live in a version of the Matrix and it is the mind we call God. How does a universe appear from nothing as a big bang?
A few years later I discovered this was not a new idea, it's from Egyptian (Hermes Trismegistus) times.
Who'da'thunk it.
From what I can gather we are actually a simulation within a simulation within a simulation and just about go a fourth level in once they perfect Artificial Reality.
I once got to to lift of about 3 inches off the goggles that we are looking into in our simulator during a meditation and the googles had alien type writing around the edges of the screens which we can't normally see. This only lasted a few seconds and then so got pulled back into this reality. One thing so did discover is that this reality simulator that we are in is SUPER FUCKING ADDICTIVE...

It's not a hologram. It's a computer simulation, we're in. It's real for us. This is real.
This universe is not what you think it is. Unlearn all the things you think is real, and question everything.
Learn the rules, and make your own reality.

I wouldn't be surprised to be honest.
Anything is possible now.
