Because it has to do with the end of humanity (Revelation).

Turn on the "Philosophers Commentary" on the DVDs and you'll find enough material to keep you pondering for weeks.
My favorite detail, though, has got to be in "The Matrix: Reloaded". Near the beginning of the film, former Agent Smith drives up in an Audi with the license plate "IS 5416". This appears to be a Bible reference -- Isaiah 54:16 reads as follows (from the King James Version): "Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy."
Considering what Smith turned out to be, you've gotta love that kind of subtlety.

You didn't notice at the end of the final movie, Neo looking like he had been crucified in the Machine City?

When a storyteller uses words from mythology, it brings a resonation within the deeper parts of the human psyche and makes a story more epic and better.
