"He believes it so blindly.." makes no sense

The Oracle is the most manipulative a-hole in the history of movies.

First she doesn't tell Neo that Trinity is going to uselessly prolong his escape, so he has to fight an Agent, instead of just preparing for that and going first or something, or at least rushing her through and telling her we can talk later. Think of how things would be different, if Oracle hadn't OMITTED this CRUCIAL DETAIL!

The Orcale orchestrated Neo's death FOR SURE!

Second, she says 'He believes it so blindly' as if she has NO part in him believing it blindly. What SHE said to Morpheus, is the CAUSE for him even thinking it, let alone believing it, and so on.

Also, this always bugged me - she is the dang ORACLE! Wouldn't Morpheus listen to her every word very carefully? Isn't this the REASON he believes ANYTHING, blindly or otherwise, that he trusts the Oracle and her words completely and utterly?

So why would she NOT be able to 'convince him otherwise'? It makes no sense for Morpheus to trust the Oracle when she says thing A, but not when she says thing B, does it? Why would he be so locked to that one thing that the reason he even knows it wouldn't be able to convince him to unlock it?

Furthermore, she's the ORACLE! She can see the FUTURE! She knows 'enough', so why couldn't she see Morpheus WOULD believe it blindly, so maybe not tell him that?

I mean, she must've known BEFORE she told Morpheus anything, that Morpheus would start believing it all 'blindly', so maybe she could've prepared for that and told him something different, or at least leave a caveat or tell it differently or something. If you see the future, and see something bad happens IF you do thing A, would you still do thing A?

Also, how about 'Oh, by the way, Cypher is a traitor, and they will cut the hardline in the building, so contact tank to arrange an escape phone somewhere far away from THAT building'.

How about it, ORACLE? HMMM?? Not force people to go through this crap that kills so many of the crew? I guess the Orcale doesn't care about Mouse, Switch, Apoc, etc.. Anyone still thinking the Oracle is not the biggest a-hole in the movie, is someone I hope I never meet in all eternity.

This Oracle stuff makes absolutely no sense, but then, what does..?

BEWARE! Avortac4 is a troll trying to waste everyone's time with such idiotic comments. Look at his posts. He doesn't think anything in any film makes sense. His post may seem like it makes sense in the first sentence or two. But he always quickly wanders off into a completely idiotic idea, and then writes a wall of text that makes no sense. And his sole purpose is to waste your time, thinking he's cute for doing so. Don't feed the troll. If you write a comment, you're giving this troll EXACTLY what he wants. Don't comment after my comment.
