Yeah, ol' Neo is dead. The word that is mentioned ad nauseum in Reloaded and some in Revolutions is PURPOSE. Smith's purpose was to be an Agent - he got perverted and with it so did his purpose, so Neo bargined with the machines to kill him in exchange for peace. The Oracle's purpose was to balance the equation, which she did by helping to guide those who were fighting the machines (and which she must continue to do, but in some other fashion). And Neo, his purpose was to end to war, he did, so he is no longer needed. Therefor, he is dead as disco. Or is he? The Oracle does tell the little girl that they may see him again. But who knows in what form?
Just as a side note, Seriph (is that how you spell it?) was supposed to be taking care of that little girl, which made me think it was funny when you see her asleep on the sidewalk in the middle of the night...then I remembered that she was taken over by Smith and when the Smiths all went kablooy, she went back to her original form. She must be special since it seems only she, Seriph and the Oracle were left over after Smith was beaten.
I didn't think this movie was hard to understand at all. It took some thinking, but most things worth understanding do. Neo didn't let Smith win the fight, Neo won by tricking Smith into letting Neo back into his code, where Neo could kill him from the inside out. I guess you all knew that. Just stating the obvious.
Oh, jygrogers, and what I said about Neo going off to college and leaving us behind...I only meant to say that in the last two movies, he is not nearly as relatable as he was in the first movie, which makes it harder to get into the movie. We can't put ourselves in his place so easily.
