Is Neo Dead ?
I assume that he is dead and that he sacrificed himself 4 the human race, but still I'm not sure 'cause I'd like 2 think that he is still alive. If he did die then doesn't that mean he is still bound 2 the rules within the Matrix - which confuses me because 'The One' isn't bound by any rules within the Matrix.
If anyone knows the answer to my question then I'd love 2 hear (read) from u, I would greatly appreciate it.

So JediHDM, u said "Smith killed Neo, creating the ONE
Neo killed Smith, creating the ZERO-virus
Smith copied over the ONE, creating balance...most would say neo died, the one died, however...
the ONE DESTROYED Smith, meaning the ONE is still alive. which leads me to think that, since the ONE must be IN a person, the PERSON must, also, be alive, meaning, Neo is alive, which is why his body is glowing, and looks like a lotus-blossom, because Neo, a normal man, has become divine." - that is pretty consise but if he is divine what does this mean for neo now? if the real world is the real world how can neo become divine in it by being in a computer program?
he sees everything connected to the source which is why neo saw things glowing in the realworld, they were connected to the source. the reason hes glowing at the end of rev is because he went back to the source so the anomally(ones power) is ready for another chosen one (hence archetects speach at the end of reloaded)
There will not be another "chosen one"(I hate that term for the Matrix movies because...He is not 'chosen'...He's a mistake, a flaw.) There is no more doubt in the Matrix, no doubt=no anomoly.
not yet anyways... the anomaly was extracted from the matrix when the war ended. but as the architect pondered "how long do you think this peace will last?"... how long indeed. however, peace is not guaranteed and after that being said, the re-insertion of the anomaly code into the matrix is, as smith adequately put, INEVITABLE...
ps.
totally agree with you on the chosen one thingy...
heres the painfull but obvious truth.....neo is dead....neo was a man....men die.....plus why would he not be breathing?....or MOVING....if he didnt DIE...that final scene wouldent have been THAT DRAMATIC...plus the oracle saying"im sure he WOULD love it" notice how WOULD is past tense...and if he wasent dead...why would we never see him again the rest of the movie....all this other crap is speculation...and unsupported assumptions...there are few things in the matrix you can take at face value....but this is one of them

Ok, so Neo has defeated the Zero virus and all's well that ends well in the Matrix - 4 the moment anyway. But our lovable hero, divine or not and still somehow connected 2 the source, is dead. Killed by a program whose rules Neo shouldn't b bound by or even perhaps killed by choice 'cause there's nothing left 4 him now. I am assuming that - as far as Neo is concerned this whole situation is bad (cause he's physically dead). But then maybe being dead is a good thing 4 Neo, that is if he is now divine.
So is this whole situation good or bad 4 Neo? Yeish. . . I don't know, what's wrong with a good old fashioned movie where u can take everything at face value.
I think that Neo is now the source did you see that the big head thing was the brightest thing there because it was the source, when the big robot was carrying Neo away it showed that Neo was the bright light making him alive, and if he was dead don't you think that the machines would have just dumped him off.
