What would a Matrix board be without a Neo thread? Why not discuss the guy a bit?
First off: why do you think he became such an icon for science fiction/action heroes/super heroes? Was it just the awesome fighting or was it because of the whole story, because of the inner conflict and of all the complex choices he had to make?
For me, the second reason. Sure, Neo wouldn't have been the same without the awesome fights, but he wouldn't have been the same either if he was just the "normal" hero who has a fight, beats the bad guy, gets the girls and lives happily every after.
It's funny, many people think he is overestimated. I think the contrary, I think he is underestimated. Not many people actually try to understand him, to put themselves into his shoes.
I know, you'll end up accusing me of becoming too philosophical and too pathetic about it.
I'd like to read your views on Neo and on his "path" throughout the movies
