Re: Will Smith as Neo?!?
Will Smith would've been a terrible Neo, as they'd have had to change the script to give him a bunch of idiotic one-liners. He's become the black Christian Slater, always mugging for the camera so that the audience knows how cool he is.
Also, actors pointing out what roles they turned down is just an asshat way of trying to steal another guy's thunder. Half the time, they didn't even turn the damn thing down. Their people talked for a bit, couldn't agree on whatever, so everyone moved on.
