But but... I like Neo and Trinity and Morpheus... :(

See, and I don't really get why anyone likes them. I don't even see them as being that developed. They're placeholders to allow a rather interesting story to happen, but they just don't have much character. They never really felt like real people to me.

It's a personal taste thing. If I'm gonna care about cardboard characters, it should at least be the ones who act a little bit interesting to me--these are dreadlocked, albino, twin assassins who are apparently viruses of some kind, and that's a bit fascinating.

And honestly, there are plenty of characters who spawn offshoots of fandom from only having a few moments of screen/page time. There's something really interesting about characters that you only get a glimpse of. Like an iceberg--you get this tiny bit of what they look and act like in a given situation, and it's fun to suss out what their background, character, reasoning, etc might be. Especially if they manage to shove even a tiny moment of characterization into those few minutes. (Toad from the X-men movie comes to mind. Maximum three lines, but little moments like teasing Sabertooth, wearing Scott's visor, and the dorky little dance create a gestalt of a character that fans love to piece together.)
