Don't forget Dark City, which has a lot of parallels to The Matrix. There's also The Thirteenth Floor, which kind of swings both ways (you'll understand that if you've seen it.
I think ultimately these movies thrive because on some level everyone wants to be the person that Eugene describes, a member of the select few who really know what's going on out there. I think a lot of political thrillers/spy capers to a lesser extent work the same angle.

And of course, people have wondered that since for ever, with Descartes writing about the "deceiver" that could be making him believe the rest of the world existed, while in reality only his own mind did.
Dark City by the way was a great movie.

I am so glad I am not the only one who thought Dark City was sweet.
But I would have to say I find the question "What's Artificial Intelligence?" THE most annoying question I've ever been asked by various co-workers/friends/family.
However, when I start talking about a chatbot and a stripper asks me "So that's like AI, right?" it makes me wonder about the world.
*Wasn't at Strip Club, just know a girl who strips... fyi*

I can honestly say I've never considered discussing chatbots with a stripper...unless it's a stripperbot
"You're not special enough to go to strip clubs? "
No, I am just special enough to work in a Gas Station near one.
Hmmm... a stripperbot you say? So it would be like a cyber-tease.... although, truth be told, if there was a bar where robots worked, and I paid a robot money and it showed me it's algorithm/skematics I would be a regular to that club. (Especially if that had private booths where you could assemble robots that had a ton of various parts! And then you could take it home and have more fun with it!!) Oh! And a robot bordello type thing where you could go into a room and have a long chat with the great minds of the past centuries... (However, I am not 100% sure I would talk to Alan Turing or not...)
