Ok two, but the second one I'm sure you'll all have an argument for.

1) If Neo had never used his eyes before he was set free... how did he know what his face looked like???

He had to know what his face looked like for his mind to portray *that* image as the face that is associated with him. Morphius said his eyes were hurting because he had never used them before, so how did he know?

2) If they were truly "freed" from the non-reality of the Matrix, and they knew that they could bend/break the laws, then *how* could they be killed in the Matrix? I mean I understand that if the mind is convinced that something is real it takes action as such, even to the point that it could cause death. But the whole point of the movie was to show that it wasn't real and only a hand full of people knew that. They *all* knew that things were not real when they entered the Matrix and so I argue that overcoming a false killing would have been as easy as overcoming a false gravity.

Is the point that *only* Neo could actually get passed that and so that is what made *him* "The One"? Is death a part of the Matrix that is too real for even Morphius to be able to "free" himself from? Or did I miss something else along the way?
