WOOHOO
Just saw it for the second time. WAY better this time around.
Proto, this one you will get a kick out of......
In the architect scene it is clearly the same screens used in the first movie when Neo is first captured by the agents and is sitting in the room being questioned. The same filming technique is being used in Reloaded, but now it makes sense. All the repeating images of neo are him at that moment. Not previous ones. Each of the actions and reactions on the screen are his potential actions at that moment. (I think someone brought this up before...mentioning that the FUCK YOU seemed to be the only possible action at that time) During the scene whenever there are possibilities on the screens you are pulled through the one screen that is the choice Neo made at that moment and then you are back to the repeating screens.
I also came up with a theory on Neo and Smith. Neo was supposed to be The One. The one was both the begining and the end. The singular and the infinite. But now, after he changed Smith in the first movie by entering his program, he is the singular and Smith is the infinite.
Additionally, there was something I caught I am still pondering. When they first head to the resteraunt to try and get the keymaker there is a 101 above the doorway behind them. In the next scene they are on highway 101. I thought this was odd so I started looking for more 101 references. When Neo goes to the architect I thought that was a symbolic 101 moment. The two doors and the room being the numbers. During the scene where he is healing Trinity, they show her vitals screen and the number for her blood pressure is 110. This lead me to think that if he had chosen the other door, the next number to be seen would have been 011. In the final scene when both Neo and Bane are unconscious the pan across Neo over the floor that is tiled to look like a zero and over to Bane.
I also think that evey time they show a clock it is showing just before 12 which is just before the time Neo enters the source.
Anyhoo, I'm rambling and it's 2am. g'night.
