   I was amazed at how much this film reminded me of Frank Herbert's  Dune   
   Messiah.   
   Neo as Maudib   
   Trinity as Chani   
   Sight without seeing   
   The Humans as the Fremen   
   The Machines as the remainder of the Empire   
   And finally not knowing if Neo/Paul is really dead or just off in the   
   wilderness because were he to return he would not be a mere mortal but a   
   god.   
   Did anyone else pick up on this possible influence, or have I just been   
   reading too much of Herbert's work lately? :D
