I think that Hollywood films have a hard time making a movie where the main character is an anti-hero. I like your observation that Neo is more the traditional hero.

Its given me food for thought. I also thought your description of Case was wonderful: "He is the quintessential beautiful loser, a hunger artist (“meat”) chained to a sequence of events, determinism collapsed into the infinite, invisible fold of the inner-space of cyberspace."
