I dont think so. Some people just need to accept that this is a fantasy fight and must be approached accordingly, and according to the thread starters rules.
I am still waiting on a question I asked and Dude asked. Why, if Neo was a God, was he able to bleed? And why did he tire? Why was his energy NOT infinite?

To AC. I know you don't want to discuss this anymore..so I'll keep it brief.
The Oracle and Morpheus WERE searching for multiple "The Ones". The oracles apartament was filled with potentials in The Matrix. Remember "there is no spoon"? Almost all of those people had the ability to be the one...the Oracle described as "the gift". Again, it was just a formula based on probabilities.
Since Luke's mind powers were shown to work over light years, then Luke could just mind rip Neo's memories right out of his head and assimilate how to be the one immediately. Luke wins again.
See? It is rediculous all the things Luke has at his disposal. Which is why I see it as impossible for Luke to lose. Luke can employ any of those powers...and according to the writing, Luke would do it much more intelligently and efficiently than you and I could think of ourselves...because his mind is much better than ours...
I know Luke does not have a jack...but how else will they fight? My alternate universe is the only place that they can fight. If they fight in the real world, Neo would lose rediculously. They both can fight in the real world and this wouldn't be an absurd fight...however, they both need to be at their full power in order for this to be a great comparison. That is the point of any of these versus threads.
They are both from different universes...so...you can always claim that they are too different or think of premises that make a vs. illogical. You can also think of ways to make it work...such as a playing field where Neo and Luke have their full powers.
In your logic...Luke can't enter the Matrix. That means the Luke is the absurdly clear winner because Luke would fight him in the real world.
i dont know why people argue about neo having the powers as described in the 1st matrix film when morpheus talks about the prophecy..."to remake the matrix as he saw fit"...there isn't really any evidence for neo being able to do that...the walls wobble when he flies...and he can stop bullets...and thats all we see
the only being we see who actually does change the matrix is Sati...when she changes the sunrise "for Neo"...despite her supposedly not having a purpose...perhaps she was the real fulfillment of the prophecy
as for the debate...well it clearly states at the start of the thread that its about the movie versions...so for that ...Neo wins...
i'm not going to get tangled up in the futile arguments about Luke and Neo's powers within the matrix and who can do what based on extended universe stuff
Exactly, his VAST arrays of powers, powers Neo has no chance against. How many times have I said that?

This is all based on the two of them fighting in an alternate universe and reality in which you have created, right?
Then excuse me while I disregard everything you've said.
Exactly, why is it so hard? Canon Vs canon, Neo wins. Movie forum, Neo wins.
It's only when you bring in non-canon E.U. Luke Skywalker, into an alternate universe, that there's even a chance.
Non-canon Luke wins in the real world, Neo wins in the Matrix. That's where it ends, for me. That's where it ends for any logical person.
"Let's pretend loads of things, despite them being contradictory and over-complicating for the sake of discussion.", no, I don't do that. It's either a credible Vs fight or it's not.
Vs fights are "Superman Vs The Hulk, in a desert, go.", "Spider-Man Vs Daredevil in New York City, go.". Not all this bs. As far as I'm concerned, this thread shouldn't even exist. It has only gotten this far because people have retardedly accepted a book character to do battle in the movie Vs forum. It's retarded.
If it's a stupid fight going by what EXISTS, is RELEVANT, and is CANON, then why not...not have the fight? Why do we have to descend into hyperbole and idiocy? Do you not see my point?
If you want Luke to fight, have him fight in the real world against some other fantasy character, someone who is not exclusively connected to a reality and a storyline.
I don't do retarded, so I obviously cannot do that. If it takes gimping, bringing in non-canon book characters and arguing over stipulations for tens of pages, my "Stupid Thread" alarm goes off.
Some things are just not worth the time.
Luke can enter the one and only Matrix and be at Neo's mercy, or he can whoop Neo in the real world. I honestly do not care, it's not about me liking Neo and not liking Luke, it's about me thinking it's a stupid fight with a character that shouldn't even be in this forum.
It's that easy, why are people making it more difficult cos they wanna have a discussion? Just think of a better discussion.
Oh, so you wanted an answer you LIKED, not one that was...an answer.
Funny how you claimed to know about the Matrix and subsequently started asking people for answers about it.
It won't matter how many times you say it, he has "no chance" cos you decide so.
I decide otherwise, in that case, for credible reasons. Now we go round again.
No, that was a good natured jab. He knew it when he read it.

No, you jus like pushing buttons. Look, we're not trying to change your opinion, you can still go around thinking NJO Luke takes the cake, I don't care, but stop trying to tell us what to do by telling us our choice isn't valid. RESPECT THAT. Neo, although not a god just to please RJ, still wins to me...
That was me driving home the point that Neo is not a God.
Hey, I can respect that.

And Neo is not a God because he is.....well, not a God.
And I never told anyone what to do, when did I do that?

Obviously. It must ache him that Neo towards the end of the third film is so ridiculous powerful.
But just to please RJ:
Neo can never win. NJO Luke appears out of nowhere saber ready, dodges everything Neo does and slices his arms off. Neo tries to replicate a new set of arms but has his head cut off!!!!!1!!! NJO Luke win!
I know you don't mean he is an actual deity, I just think that the fact that Neo is an ordinary man who has extraordinary powers is all there is to it. Nothing Godlike about it.
