A lot of it is interrogation techniques. He Tries to build a bond with Neo when he says “my colleagues think I’m wasting my time with you” . He creates pressure by telling and showing him how much they know, but doesn’t give Neo time to see how much they really know. Neo gets a glimpse of something that upsets him right before Smith closes the files. Then he relieves some pressure and gives Neo hope by saying that one of his lives has a future. Meaning Neo has a way to “get out of it”. They would know how the human mind works. It is brilliant, there is so much in this scene.

[@nicktroisi6347]

Hugo Weaving stole the show, the way he portrayed a villian like Agent Smith, cold, ruthless, cerebral and ultimately…human, it’s amazing. I mean he can deliver and make a simple line as such as “And you…help your land lady carry out her, garbage” so good and yet so condescending, brilliant, just brilliant

[@losthalo428]

2:55 In this scene Thomas Anderson asks Agent Smith "How about I give you the finger?". However, if you look closely, you can see that his finger is attached to his hand. This would make it impossible for Agent Smith to accept the finger as a gift.

[@mathilde2650]

this comment is massively underrated

[@johneyton5452]

He may have had a spare gift wrapped complementary pre-severed finger elsewhere on his person and was merely illustrating the point with his admittedly still-attached finger. Alternatively he may merely have intended to loan out his non-severed still-functional finger for as yet undisclosed purposes at which we can only speculate. I don't like to overthink things.

[@losthalo428]

​@@johneyton5452 Interesting remark, however, if you watch carefully, Thomas Anderson's first engagement with Agents was right before the interrogation, and he couldn't have known he was being monitored until Morpheus's call, hence he couldn't have arranged a wrapped gift for his new well-suited friends.

[@green_frogball1015]

Mind blown

[@johneyton5452]

@@losthalo428 Hmm, yes, as you say, that would militate against the likelihood of the pre-giftwrapped finger scenario. Also, if i watch carefully, Mr Anderson does in fact appear to still be in possession of a full set of 10 functional and attached digits. One possibility is that he suffered polydactyly and had coincidentally just recently had the extra digit surgically removed and was considering keeping it as an amulet or souvenir, until he settled on Agent Smith as a potential recipient of the extraneous extremity. That would allow him to have it on his person and neatly tie up the loose end in the plot. I don't like to see major films fail on minor ill-thought-out points.

I wonder if this was truly designed with that in mind. A very cool touch indeed but I do wonder back in 98 when this was being made if they really had a whole backstory for the world THAT thought out. I think it works because it does in a weird coincidence way. While Matrix lore can be super deep I truly do wonder how planned out this franchise was from the jump. I like to think it was developed and with some passion as it found success and went along since it does not have the fortune many lore heavy trilogies do like LOTR, or HP or even GoT. Then again you can look at Star Wars and say that’s irrelevant. Either way keen observation, super interesting to consider

God Almighty, the Creator was manifest in the flesh. He came into the world to take away the sin of the world. He gave up his own life to save yours. His sacrifice on the cross paid the price for your redemption with his own blood. On the third day he rose from dead and offers the gift of salvation and forgiveness to those that repent and trust in him. This is the Gospel which means the Good News. Those that reject redemption will go to hell. 1 John 1:8-10 KJV If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. [9] If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. [10] If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us. John 1:1-3,10 KJV In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. [2] The same was in the beginning with God. [3] All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. [10] He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. Isaiah 44:6 KJV Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his redeemer the Lord of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God. Revelation 1:17-18 KJV And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: [18] I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death. Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: [9] Not of works, lest any man should boast. Acts 4:12 KJV Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. John 5:24 KJV Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.

When Agent Smith says that Mr. Anderson disappoints him, it's not because he won't cooperate. It's because he's disappointed that Mr. Anderson does not see the Matrix for what it is yet. He's disappointed that he's not as spectacular of a human like he thought, which means he won't be able to get to Morpheus. He also takes pleasure in removing Mr. Anderson's speaking abilities not just for torturous pleasure, but because he knows that he will get to help "awaken" Neo into the harsher reality and thusly that's much more pleasurable to him.

[@Givelasagna]
