Fax from the Matrix

Remember the surrealistic scene on the television in the Oracle's waiting room? With the giant rabbits hopping through the town? My thanks to wolfsbane2000 who identified the movie as a 50's B rated movie called "Attack of the Lupine".

She also noticed that while in the beginning when Neo was loojing for The Matrix he was following the rabbits, they seem now to be following him, in effect, The Matrix looking for Neo.

Speaking of the Oracle's waiting room, did you notice in the scene before Neo talks with Spoonboy that hanging on the wall behind him in the hallway was a massive spoonrack loaded with spoons?
