Matrix movie lore opinion question. Did cypher try anything else before betraying the group? Would neo and the others have tried to help him if he asked? (lemmy.world)

I think if he would’ve been like “I’ve rally changed my mind. I can’t do this.” Neo and Morpheus I feel would’ve tried to help him re-enter the matrix.

The whole thing was about “give them a choice” and I think everyone would have at least understood how he fealt and would’ve tried to get him back into the matrix at his request.

I feel like he didn’t even try talking about it before he went to the agents.

I know it’s meaningless just wondering what other people thought.

Fair. I guess I forgot that part. Morpheus doesn’t come of as the cold tho person. He might of said that and might always say that as a warning but the way his character comes off I can’t see him being like “to bad so sad. Get back to work”

But maybe his character wasn’t portrayed quite accurately

    I agree that Morpheus doesn't seem like a cold person. But he can't let any of his crew return to the Matrix because the agents could perform one of their mind-bending interrogations on them and gather intel on Zion. Like Trinity showed us when Morpheus himself was captured - denying an asset to the enemy by yanking their plug out was standard procedure.
