Now let me start by saying that the matrix trilogy is my favourite trilogy ever (in the order 1, 3, 2), but does anyone agree with me that that dam kid is the most unneccessary character ever?
He's just an annoying little pipsqueak who gets in everyone's way!
"neo, I believe"- what the hell kind of one liner is that?
they so could've done without him and the films would've been better (if that's possible).
I especially didn't like how he was the one to tell Zion that the war was over, where clearly that should've been Morphius' job.
and even him being there was neccessary, he should've been a redshirt (re:star trek). I just couldn't wait to see his head get lopped off by a random tentacle..

EXTRA LESSONS WITH SNAPE -what on earth had he done to deserve this?
Amazing, how much more difficult it was to extend his arm tvelve inches and touch her hand than it was to snatch a speeding Snitch from midair. There are more qoutes in my profile.
C'mon man, don't be too picky please. The kid did have 1)saved Neo once. 2)openned the gate for Logos, so let him do the announcement job shouldn't be asking too much I guess.
btw, that kind of underdog sidekick is almost a MUST in any movies, or, in real life as well.
I like the Kid. He was a cool character. I think in a way they were trying to show that almost everybody plays a part in the war.

Blocking this path of his righteousness
Don't forget Kid' Story (Animatrix) where you see Kid chatting with Neo on the web, and dreaming of his own death. Kid later on gets chased by agents and jumps from a roof wishing that Neo will save him. He dies in the Matrix but wakes up in the real world, where Neo and Trinity say "I didn't know self-substantiating like that was possible" "Neither did I".
Kid has obviously believed in the fact that the Matrix isn't the real world, and, because of that, he makes himself wake up in the real world.
Another example of the importance of BELIEF in the Matrix movies. What you believe in in the Matrix is automatically made true. Oracle in the end of M3: "[Neo's] made a believer out of me".
How did the kid save Neo once? Well, there's a scene wheras the sidekick (Bane?) tried to ambush Neo by stabbing him from behind but the kid accidentally stopped him, yelling at Neo trying to say something.
The kid is a hero in the same way that Jar Jar is a hero - through SHEER LUCK. What pisses me off is that he almost got more screen time than Morpheus!

Fear not, however! For although I may be gone, my memory lives on through my second profile, "Ahnold", the great governor of califohrnia!
In truth, I was not as tough as "Ahnold", and not as cool as "Gus" {profile no. 3}; but dammit, I can at least be proud that I had the weirdest name of all three...
You must be confusing the kid with, I dunno, AN EXPLANATION FOR THE WEIRD STUFF THAT HAPPENED AT THE END OF RELOADED
