I was just watching "Charlie Rose" with the Matrix cast. You'd think these people had just invented the Greatest Religion in the Universe the way they went on about themselves.
Hey, Keanu, Carrie and Laurence....get over yourselves. It's just a movie. You are not our saviors. Big LOL!

Well, if the story is that the rebellion ITSELF is part of the Matrix, then they REALLY aren't our saviors.
That's kind of a hopeless conclusion and quite dismal.
It fits in much more with Eastern religions than the West, well except gnosticism. If the entire world is a big deception, from the POV of the movie, then the entire trilogy is a big waste.
Darth was Luke's dad, but at least all the characters' actions MEANT something. If everyone in the rebellion are fools, it renders all their actions and all their sacrifices meaningless.
Kind of like a bad series finale, where someone wakes up and discovers it was really just a dream.
