New screencaps, and new thoughts from the new qt clips.
Ok, I'm back with some more high rez screencaps and interesting thoughts.
First up, the "streak through the rain, collide, big boom" scenario. We've all seen neo go streaking through the rain and clash with smith.
Heres an interesting thing though.
We don't see the collision from the top down street angle like we think. If you forward frame by frame, you find out that they cut to a whole other scene, and show an explosion THERE.

Notice flying horizontally above an easily distinguished street, along easily distinguished buildings?
Now look at this

Now we see, neo and smith are flying from the top to the bottom now.

And finally, the explosion, from the top-bottom view...
Now, a pic which was posted in low - rez, along with the theory that smith was taking over the oracle in the pic. My detailed image seems to support that theory.
I think the first three pics are the same fight. The second and third shots seem to be a 90 degree rotation of the first. (Camera zooming out and slightly different angle.) This could be for dramatic effect, bullet time or somethign else. My guess is these are all from the same fight.
The Oracle picture - I see the Smiths, and the person in the chair. Certainly it could be the Oracle, but it could also be Seraph or Neo for all we know.

I think the first is from a slight angle change, just thought it was interesting. I like catching stuff like that.
Also, yeah it could be seraph or neo, but they don't appear to be holding them down or restraining them, which, I cannot IMAGINE neo or seraph sitting still with three smiths in the room.
But I do believe its definitely the oracle's kitchen.
in another post, Jedi had mentioned that Seraph is out with Trinity at the Hel Club, so that, in a manner of speaking rules out Seraph, and then that leads to further prove that it is the oracle, because her protector is not there...possibly
i was only making a statement, an idea of what logically seems to happen, it COULD be Seraph, but i think that HIGHLY unlikely, as i said before, i think it is Oracle...
This may sound strange but I think those first three pictures May actually be from the same scene. If you look at the buildings on the side you can notice some distinguishing features. For example, the floors with the lights on or the "indent" in the walls (the center part of the building is set in a little bit from the sides). Then take a look at the supposed view from underneath. The indent is the same and the lights are the same (well, I should say they are similar). I agree though that the buildings do seem to look different (the color looks a little off) but the other features makes me think they may be the same. Ok ok, so what is going on here? Well maybe (just a hypothesis) the camera in the actual scene will flow from top to bottom (above to underneath) and these clips that we see in the TV spot are just the beginning and end. Well, like I said, maybe. Ok but heres another thing. If you have all the TV spots then I'm sure you've also seen the clip where it shows Neo and Smith rushing towards each other. It's from left to right, and from above. Then it shows the impact shock wave thing, still from above, and still left to right. Ok, an impact shock wave thing IS cool (in fact my mouth dropped when I saw it). So do you think they show two of them, or that it is the same one and the camera swivels as it moves down beneath them? Yeah... I don't know either, but I'm GUESSing the swivel bullet-time camera trick (only because I think that would be cool and I don't imagine there being two concussion shots where the only difference is 90 degrees. Too repetitive if the only thing that's different it 90 degrees. It wouldn't seem so cool. Maybe). What I'm getting at is this: imagine if they Neo did the same totally awesome kick over and over again in the same fight scene. It would wear out and not seem so cool right? (Well maybe not but...) So, it just seems easier to see it being the same scene.... You know what. I've made my point. It's time to shut up now. Let me just say that I Do think I could be wrong, and I am just guessing. Well see in november.
Also, does anyone else notice the people standing in the windows. hmmmm.... Other Smiths perhaps....
Same thing I was thinking...Freaky seeing all the Smith's in the windows!
Also, I think it's the Oracle that's in the chair getting taken over by Smith...sad when you think about it. Can't wait til Nov.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
which ones? The ones you see in the buildings? Well not if its a shot looking up like we're guessing. That's another part that seems to make it fit that this is from below and looking up.
But once again, this is just a guess. I'm just pointing out what seems to 'support' my guess.
