did Neo actually die?

Rating: Null/10 (23 June 2005)

I'm really confused did Neo die or not?!?!?!?! my mates say he just fainted and all that but it just really confuses me and i hate the fact that the main character died (if he did) and i think they should bring out a further matrix film when Neo isn't dead and has to fight the last of the agents or something and WHERE HE Don't DIE!! because i think that totally ruined the film that the only surviver through out the trilogy is Morpheus... can we do something to make them make another film out of it because i would really love to see a forth where the main characters don't die don't you????? he was like the best character and you killed him off (i think). And also was there books before the films??? (just wondering because i have to do 10 lines)
