Yet, it seems like Smith could be returning for revenge in The Matrix Resurrections. As chaos escalates throughout the trailer, we see the return of the classic Agent. That is a primitive, Machine-led goal. As Neo begins to unravel the mystery of his purpose, just like he did in , it would only be fitting that Smith would return to thwart another uprising. Neo finds himself at gunpoint, with the signature Desert Eagle handgun, wielded by Smith and his clones before him. A Sports Journalism graduate, James quickly realized that supporting Sunderland AFC was painful enough without writing about it, and so decided to talk a load of rubbish about movies and TV instead.
Spending most of his days editing articles about or writing on movies and shows, James likes to really get away from work and unwind by, er, watching movies and shows. He's fuelled by pint-sized cups of tea, peanut butter, more tea, and a quiet, constant anger like the Hulk, only not green, or strong, or big.
By James Hunt Published Sep 09, Share Share Tweet Email 0. Key Release Dates. Virtually every aspect of the major themes of The Matrix revolve around choice's role in existence. Whereas it is empowering to humans such as Neo, Morpheus, and Trinity, the antagonist Smith has to connect it to a reason.
It must be a means to an end, not an end unto itself. It causes fluctuations in the code of the Matrix which require the clean install of the prime program every years or so. The Matrix trilogy uses the ramifications of 'the ability to choose' as the single-most defining difference between human and machine consciousness.
There is a brief explanation given by Smith, but it's clear he doesn't fully understand it either. Agent Smith: Our connection. I don't fully understand how it happened, perhaps some part of you imprinted on to me, something overwritten or copied, it is at this point irrelevant. Agent Smith: I killed you Mr. Agent Smith: Thank you. But, as you well know appearances can be decieving, which brings me back to the reason why we're here. We are not here because we're free, we're here because we are not free.
There is no escaping reason, no denying purpose, because as we both know, without purpose, we would not exist. Multiple Smiths: It is purpose that created us.
Purpose that connects us. Purpose that pulls us, that guides us, that drive us. It is purpose that defines, purpose that binds us. Agent Smith: We are here because of you Mr. We're here to take from you what you tried to take from us. But from this we can reason that when Neo destroyed Smith originally, some of Neo's biological code made it's way into Smith's program.
Hence their "connection", this means that Smith no longer has to follow the rules of his fellow programs, meaning he can choose to disobey the protocols of being deleted. This new hybrid code also gives him the ability to copy his program onto other programs cloning himself.
Another point that Smith makes might help further explain things: In the original movie Smith refers to humans as a Virus. After Smith comes back with his altered human code Smith spreads himself just like a virus. Programs are supposed to return to the source upon completion of their duties. Some programs fail to do this such as those you meet with The Merovingian. Agents are valuable programs and contain information that is probably considered "sensitive data" to the machines.
We also know their authority exists out side of the Matrix as when Smith orders the attack in the real world. The program of the Agent extends outside of the Matrix, which is why they can pass between people and such.
Once they are destroyed however, they seem to require returning to the source. It is possible that this is because that is so exceedingly rare, that the situation requires expert evaluation, or perhaps because the Agents still have to follow the "rules" so they can not continue their work. Maybe he had no destructor implemented, and his destruction by Neo caused something like a "memory leak"?
Remember, Smith is just software, so if the memory where his code is present is not erased completely, it can be accidentally altered and called by any other process. It is a common mistake, that if the programmers think a situation will never happen, sometimes they won't bother writing the code to handle that. Agents are supposed to be indestructible, especially when fighting against humans. If their host is killed, they jump to another host.
Neo seems to be special even compared to all the previous "ones", so it might well be, that when the Machines designed the agents, they did not bother to handle the situation when an agent is completely destroyed as Neo did it because they thought it can never happen. Note: this "memory leak" theory is strengthened by the fact that the Machines cannot just erase Smith and his copies.
Of course, the machines could just have used heuristics, but then we would not have had any sequels Smith didn't die because he was released from the Matrix as a result of his interaction with the One. Neo the One was considered a tool of the system, a compromise to allow humanity as a whole to accept the conditions imposed by the Matrix as long as humans believed they had choice, they would continue to function relatively well in the Matrix.
Neo eventually escapes both physically from the Matrix but more importantly mentally from the limitations of the Matrix, allowing him to "flex" the Matrix for a number of superhuman abilities. As Neo's powers grew, the Matrix still tried to suppress his development, trying to prevent the reset of the Matrix for as long as possible. As a result, Smith grew in power until the Matrix realized he, even as an Agent, could no longer continue to match or exceed Neo's abilities.
In the final confrontation between Smith and Neo, Neo realizes his resistance only caused the Entity to spread faster and farther trying to match his powers. He realizes the Matrix needs to be reset and only once the Smith entity "consumes" him, it will have no place left to go and experience a logical failure, consuming itself. Agent Smith is essentially a non-corporeal being but has the ability to possess any host body in the Matrix, and then take on a human guise. The corporeal forms of the agents all wear matching dark green suits, green neckties, white shirts and rectangular sunglasses, as well as earpieces that they use to communicate with each other.
While there are other agents featured in the first film, Agent Smith is the most developed. Agent Smith then succeeds in kidnapping Morpheus, but Neo and Trinity are able to rescue him.
