A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
- Posts must be original/unique

The answer is in the movie. When explaining the Matrix to Neo, Morpheus says: "There are fields, endless fields, where human beings are no longer born, we are grown."

Doesn't specify the exact how, but it's strongly implied that it is through either cloning or artificial gestation.
I completely forgot about that part of the movie. Thanks for the reminder!
I think you are due for a re-watch! It's great when it's been a few years and you can enjoy some of the bits you forgot about.
Unfortunately we can never experience the big reveal for the first time again. It was absolutely mind-blowing watching him wake up in the pod on the big theater screen for the first time. That was the coolest movie experience I've ever had.
Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind. So many firsts to revisit
Are you saying to watch ESotSM, or to utilize its one weird trick?
Both
Sorry, who are you?
Its me! Dont you remember?
Listen, this is getting creepy.
Wait, who am I?
Unfortunately I cannot forget even a second of The Matrix.
Fortunately, I don’t need to. It’s like listening to this yet again. It’s beautiful even though I know every note and can listen to the whole thing in my head any time I want: https://youtu.be/LZ48G9UziRs?si=WdHnkS5bvDNdF1wv
