Neo

Does the story revolve around Neo? Not at this point. Its moved on.
Would there be a Matrix franchise without Neo - no way. His story arc of discovery is what set up the whole thing. Without Neo, who cares if there are agents, exiles etc?
What made it great was seeing someone do some super cool impossble kung fu disco! Otherwise we are just watching Dark city (cool in its own right, but not really a superhero movie if I remember correctly).
Trinity or Morpheus were cool to watch. But lets face it, the story wasnt about the supporting cast. Sure, we remember Dennis Rodman was on the Bulls - but the story was about Michael Jordan lol.
Yeah, the Matrix lends itself to lots of cool story ideas now, but it needed The Neo character to reveal the nature of the Matrix.
And honestly for me, I haven't seen much in the way of cool story arcs since the movies. I didnt really love any of the storylines in Mixo when it was live. Without a great cause to fight for, it was hard to care about the characters. Obv just my opinion.
