Yes, because he was in the Matrix and Agents, until Neo, were always a step ahead of anyone in it, due to being its programmers.Like I said, future requirement for these threads: Know about what you're discussing.

Doubt it...probably less. But he did take a ridiculous amount of punishment from the agents. The same agents who punched thru walls and lept with enough force to crush cars beneath them.
See? Perhaps, if all you are gonna do is question the thread, you should keep your snide remarks to yourself.
the technique used to produce the bullet time effect (namely the use of many cameras all firing shots at minute intervals and then a computer adding in CGI shots to knit them together) was actually 1st used in an advert to film a bird taking off from water (among others)...although back then it was known as timetrack and was invented by dayton taylor...this was in 1994 and is, technologically, the same set up as what was used in the matrix
Bullet-time's on-track camera set up had been used, but not in a movie or anything to the best of my knowledge.
The following movies were said to have debuted new CGI techniques.
Either way, movies like The One were absolutely ripped-off of The Matrix. They were also, unlike The Matrix, shit.
Except Equilibrium, that was decent.

yeah the CGI interpolating of the shots hadn't been done before...just the basic shots so it always looked jerky
it was supposedly also used by Gondry in a Bjork video..."army of me" but i've never bothered to check to what extent
and i have to agree..."the one" was dire...and equilibrium was good but stylistically too based on the matrix...particularly the grammaton cleric's clothing
