Well I've opted to be "the one" (so to speak ;D) to volunteer for doing the body count for the 3 Matrix movies. But I need a little help/input from anyone on a few little discrepancies... 1. Do Agents/Machines/Programs count? Especially Agents...as when they die, they just reappear somewhere else - Sentinels too, do they count even though they are technically not "alive"? 2. (This will be dependant on the responses to the first question) Does Agent Smith demise(s) count as one death? If so, I am so NOT looking forward to the aftermath of the Superbrawl!  Oh boy, I think I've got my work cut out for me! I'll probably think of a few other questions as time goes by.... |

Well I've opted to be "the one" (so to speak ;D) to volunteer for doing the body count for the 3 Matrix movies. Hey thanks Mr. A...I was hoping that you might.  I think that non-fans will fight this one but fans certainly would want them included. I want the count to mostly consist of "screen deaths." We can do it several ways though I think that we should exclude the sentinels in the final tally since technically they are not "deaths" though it is something we can add as a miscellaneous count for those interested. 1. Have two totals a) one that includes the agents and b) one that does not. 2. Have a total but then a breakdown as well... - Agents count
- Humans
- Ships with humans...(this also would not be in the final count but under "miscellaneous.")
I figure at this point it can go either way since it can be argued that each of those bodies possessed by a "Smith" is a human in a pod. Besides it kind of would be fun having just a "Number of times Smith gets it in the Superbrawl." ;D No problem, I need to hammer out some guidelines anyway...for the most part the rule of thumb is "on screen deaths/demises/fatal hits." Anything else is extra. |

Well I would at least count regular agents.. when they die someone dies, they are just using the "bodies" so I would say it counts. I guess with this logic you will have to count the burly brawl as well... each time Smith dies it's someones "body" he has taken over.
Hey Jen I'll pick up on this and do some movies for you. Anything in particular you need?

Hey Jen I'll pick up on this and do some movies for you. Anything in particular you need? Well I want to get the three pictures I have in my header first. I already have EQ's count so either Hard Boiled or Saving Private Ryan would be great. Before you do all the counting work though there might be a fan site or something that already has these. |

how detailed do you want the death reports? Awesome!! It really is your discretion. I want... 1. an over all count of "on screen kills" for the entire film 2. Kills by the main character If there are certain scenes that you want to detail more (like say Kill Bill's Tea Room fight) than that is entirely up to you. I'll add any of these as miscellaneous. |

jenge, further down the road, would be using charts or graphs for kills? I think so especially with films that have large numbers...in fact I might be able to do that now. I'll test it with the EQ page since that's the first one I'll do. I have most of the site finished and just need to upload it and then I can get to it. |

If so, I am so NOT looking forward to the aftermath of the Superbrawl! Oh boy, I think I've got my work cut out for me! .... I don't think the people Smith possesses die at the end of the Superbrawl. The girl whom he possessed is alive at the end and the architect mentions freeing everyone at the end, so I assume Neo somehow freed them without killing them. Hope that makes things easier.  |
