There are plenty of other examples, but I haven't seen the film in a while, not to mention the sequels.

Most prominently, it was Neo, Trinity, and Morpheus from the 1999 cinematic masterpiece, 'The Matrix,' who left an indelible mark on this sartorial statement.I ended up creating 10 pairs of nose-clips to make sure they would stay on during all the action scenes and still look great! In addition to white rabbit motifs and mind-melting deja vu, The Matrix Resurrections viewers will see the cast wearing a new range of sunglasses designed on commission by designer Tom Davies for the sci-fi franchise’s fourth installment. Another potential out of universe explanation (and admittedly just my theory) - eyes tend to be reasonably complex things to render without falling into the uncanny valley. The character is also quite similar in behaviour to Molly (particularly if you take the plot of johnny pnemonic into account as well. Neo is contacted by Trinity (played by Carrie-Anne Moss) who takes him into an underworld where he meets Morpheus and they fight for their lives against an organisation of secret agents… These ‘Agents’ are sentient computer programmes disguised as humans… Are you still following us?

For example, Morpheus scene where he meets Neo in the first movie, has a bunch of straight shot scenes.The characters in the Matrix series are synonymous with their glasses so this was the most creatively challenging Hollywood commission I have ever had. Neo's character exudes coolness and confidence, making the sunglasses a sought-after accessory for those who admire his style.

The original Matrix sunglasses emerged from the creative vision of eyewear designer Richard Walker, associated with the eyewear company Blinde Optics. Sunglasses serve a different purpose for The Matrix's villains, helping to dehumanize Hugo Weaving and his cohorts, and amplifying their machine-like mentality.As we journey deeper into the realm of fashion, it becomes increasingly evident that the allure of these sleek and enigmatic accessories remains unwavering. A pair of Ray-Bans doesn't make a difference in terms of manipulating or moving through The Matrix, nor do they help either side achieve the goals. The Matrix establishes that characters essentially generate their own digital image when entering the simulation, so are the shades just a trendy fashion choice, or is there something deeper going on? Morpheus' distinctive eyewear, characterised by its sleek, round, and rimless design, adds to his authoritative and mysterious persona. Nevertheless this tech needs you to wear a pair of virtual glasses to actually deliver you an text message from a friend.
