»looking beyond bane...«

Everyone keeps assuming that when Bane tells Neo to "look beyond the flesh, see your enemy" that the next scene MUST be right after that in the movie. We've seen clips moved and pasted before in the Reloaded trailers. Isnt it possible that they just took a picture of a fire-looking smith from within the Matrix and placed it right after the shot of Bane in the trailer to make it seem like this was all happening in the real world?

What you mentioned could be very true, and is known to happen.The problem is that do you have a better explanation.

Another supporting reason is that the apparition of Smith in that scene is in the same gesture........but then again not a hard contradictory evidence.

@wireman121:

I have had the same conclusion watching the trailer.

It seems everyone is happy with believing that Neo uses his power becuase of Smith's comment about looking past the flesh. I find this weird. A scene cutting from a talking Bane to a nontalking Smith and back seems to indicate that Neo's power can emulate the apperance of Smith but not the lipsync.

Another point, in my opinion, is that the power of seeing the programs and data of the machine world as red matrix-like code in the real world is connected to Neo being blinded. In the trailer Neo is not yet blindfolded when looking at Bane, so he has not gained the power yet.
