Who's your personal favorite character/s from the Matrix films so far (and also the 9 animated Matrix shorts, if any have been seen) and please give your reason/s why.

It would have to be Trinity, I always like the true believers, I think she will be a key player in the next movie.
Plus, she looks great in the leather outfits

I picked up Reloaded on DVD this weekend, so I've got Matrix on the brain.
Trinity is very cool. She's balsy but stil has that touchable side.
The black captain at the meeting with the goatee who agrees to stay in the Matrix while the Neb recharges (is it Ballard?) is also way cool. Course he probably got blown to bits after Bane betrayed the ship. He's in the game, though, too isn't he?
After watching the film again though, Serif is the one I'm digging. He's just too cool. And he pronouces "Oracle", "Owicew". How cool is that?
Agent Johnson was pretty good. Much better than Thompson. I don't know the third agent's name.

Smith, because he delivers every line with such self-importance and over-emphasis on every syllable that he makes Morpheus seem like he's on speed.
He's just a great all around bad guy, not one redeeming quality to him. Even when Neo "set him free" he can't accept his newfound power and get over his hatred of Neo, he just has to destroy him.

I agree, Smith is the only character in the Matrix movies I really like. Well, I've always preferred the bad guys... ;-)

Well, Smith was a little rambling in Reloaded. But that's part of what makes him cool. He just talks like a badass and if you don't understand him, too bad, cause he's still going to stick his hand in your chest and make you his clone.
Though, after watching the DVD twice, I finally understand the Oracle's speech about only seeing past the choices we understand. That whole thing seemed kind of rambling at first, but makes more sense now.

Cool, now can you tell me what the Hell the Architect was blathering on about?
Neo, you are a shitty actor, ergo it was a choice that should have been assiduosly avoided in the casting call, concordantly, the reasons why they cast you are an anomaly inherent to the series which would otherwise achieve perfect mathmatical harmony blah blah blah...
Charlie Brown's teacher was more understandable.

Well, which part didn't you understand? Some of it is no doubt meant not to be understood until part 3. I undstood most of what he was saying, though I'm not sure I believe it all.

Oddly, I also like the head councilman (Admiral Dougherty to you Trek fans). I know he was a previous "The one" that chose to rebuild Zion.
