[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]This actually makes sense to me. If Neo can tap into the computer processors of the machines (i.e. the Source, as I understand it), and the Matrix is nothing but a computer program, then doesn't it make sense that he'd have a lot of ability to manipulate the program (i.e. do whatever he wants, such as fly)?[/quoteost_uid0]

You misunderstood. Neo can do whatever he wants in the Matrix, and I'm fine with that. It's the powers in the real world - EMP pulses, blowing up Sentinals, his "machine-vision" when he's blind - these make no sense whatsoever.

[quoteost_uid0]The Source is all around us... it is in all things, it binds the universe together. Use the Source, Neo - use the Source![/quoteost_uid0]

Ahem.[/colorost_uid0]
