Red = Agent Smith post #1  quote:



Has anyone else noticed that as the number of "Smith"s increase, so does the abundance of the color red?

In the first Matrix, there was only one Agent Smith. While in the agent training program, the Woman in the Red Dress became Smith. Towards the end, as Neo is being chased by Agent Smith, you see slight glimpses of red, nothing to vibrant. Simple things, such as the red tie worn by the man on the cell phone or the red jacket hanging in the apartment.

As the trilogy movies progress, there are more and more Smiths. Just as well, the amount of the color red in each movie increases to the point at which in Revolutions, there is almost as much red as there is green.

Yeah. I noticed the red awhile ago. I think I made a thread about it linking it to communism. That was back when this forum was thriving with matrix fans.

But in the Super Brawl, there is no red at all, only green.

Maybe directors s****** at parties, talking about how every man and his dog is trying to work out why he did this or that; when the original idea was just to do it to see how many people he could get to talk about why they he did this or that...
