We are not in the Matrix. Is so, we could bend the rules of physics and stuff. God knows I've tried to.

Thats like saying if I was to believe then I could make my computer do whatever I wanted it to.

..BMZ, in the first Matrix, the reason why Neo got his power's, was because he began to believe he could do it..
When you tried to bend reality, and physic's, you didn't believe in your heart, in your very mind that you could do so, because your consience, your very mind KNOWS that's impossible, you can't simply erase the mind's labeling system. If you heard about a guy that stopped a bullet, and turned it into a bite sized pellet, you wouldn't believe it, because your mind can't comrehend it...that's the mind's true flaw..it's unable to look beyond what it believe's can happen, anything that seems like it can't happen, anything it can't understand, it labels as impossible..

What about all that Residual Self Image stuff? If we were in a Matrix, I don't think there would be any fat or ugly people.

If we really are in a matrix (which we arnt) then do you think the Machines (or whoever you think put us in it) would allow a film that would exploit the fact we are in a Matrix?

Thats exactly the point of the film. The machines allow a film like the Matrix so that we think 'Well, if they made a film like that we cant be in one', theyre messing with our minds.

Well its more than the film thats bought this up. If you'd ever studied epistemology or heard of Descartes you would know this idea is over 2 millenia old. Besides, if we were forced not to say certain things by some unknown power wouldn't it raise our suspiciouns somewhat?

Remember in the first movie they said that if you get hurt in the matrix youre mind makes it real. So the mind would make youre body think that it is pregnent.
