Works in this franchise with their own pages:


The Matrix:

  • Surprisingly, there is a moment: "He is the One."
  • "Neo, I'm not afraid anymore. The Oracle told me that I would fall in love and that that man... the man that I loved would be The One. So you see, you can't be dead. You can't be... because I love you. You hear me? I love you. [Trinity kisses Neo; Neo's vital signs return] Now get up!"
    • Not to mention, that when Neo tells Trinity the Oracle told him he's not The One, Trinity's immediate reaction is "no, you have to be" and then to respond "that's not true" when Neo insists he's just another guy. On the first watch, you think it's just her going You Are Better Than You Think You Are. On the second, you realise she means it's because she's already fallen in love with him. She knows he's The One because she loves him already.
  • Though heartwarming may not be the right word for it, Agent Smith's speech to Morpheus in the first movie implies not that he is some G-man working for a higher power with no real feelings of his own, but rather a sentient intelligence whose only real desire is to be free from what he perceives as a prison. Buried in a speech about how much he hates humanity is a hint that he may be more human than he realizes.
  • Tank's face when Morpheus dials in.
    Tank: Damned good to hear your voice, sir.
  • Real-world example: Keanu Reeves gave away most of his paycheck for this movie to the costume and special effects team, turning them into millionaires.
