MATRIX 2: Reloaded discussion

I don't know. I guess I just liked the subtleness of the first movie when it came to the Neo/Jesus aspect better.

Being called "My own personal Jesus Christ" early on. Before he even meets Morpheus. The scene with Cypher and Trinity outside his door after his first day of training. The way they are standing leaves only a section of the grid on the door showing. In the shape of a cross of course. Cyper is gesturing in a way that draws your eyes too it. It was totally obvious to me, but everyone I was with totally missed it the first few times they saw it.

This time around it was too "here, this is what I am trying to say" It was the subtlty, the undercurrent, that made the first one more intense.
