Neo's mom and dad?
Don't know if anyone has ever thought of this. I've been a Matrix fan since the first movie was in the theaters, but this is the first time I've ever had any serious participation in discussions about it. So I don't know how much has been dug out of this movie. With that... I did a couple screen caps of Smith looking thru Neo's file and rotated them 180 deg. Notice you can see his father and mothers name, birth date, name of the city of record... Nothing ultra revealing, but interesting, I thought.
It's pretty well known that the movie was shot in Sydney, but was there ever any mention of the name of the city in the Matrix?

There's a swingin' town I know called... Capital City.
People stop and scream hello in... Capital City.
It's the kind of place that makes a bum feel like a king.
And it makes a king feel like some nutty, cuckoo, super-king.
It's against the law to frown in... Capital City.
You'll caper like a super-clown when you chance to see Fourth Street and `D'! Yeah!
Once you get a whiff of it, you'll never want to roam.
Capital City, my home sweet, yeah!
Capital City, that happy-tal city.
It's Capital City, my home sweet swingin' home!

I think Matrix 1 was supposed to take place in Chicago, or at least a city based on Chicago.
This is according to my Matrix book of essays, "Taking the Red Pill"; the book points out that all of the street names in Neo's hometown are real streets in Chicago, and apparantley some actually have some sort of sybolism.
So there ya go.

The brothers are from Chicago, and anyone from Chicago recognized every single street name/intersection names in the first movie....I thought it was cool...cause I'm from Chicago.
Anywho, they're also a big print of the Chicago skyline in Neo's bosses office in the first flick.

I'm a bit confused as the left side of the passport says 12 SEP/SEP 01 and the right side says 11 SEP/SEP 01.
