Lord of the Rings/ Matrix correlation

1.) Okay, the guy who plays Agent Smith in Matrix is the same guy who plays that Elf King in Lord of the Rings.
2.) Neo is The One
3.) Frodo has to destroy the One Ring
4.) Neo is opposed by Agent Smith.
5.) Frodo is backed by the Elf King.

Coincidence?

Pulling this from elsewhere

Quote:

I ganked this from someone's livejournal. Thought you might like it

The Matrix script, as compressed by Alanna:

NEO: If you rearrange the letters in my name, it spells ONE.
MORPHEUS: See? I was right.
TRINITY: I love you, Neo. But maybe I'll die.
NEO: Whoa.
(They embrace)
AGENT SMITH: Mwah hah hah. Don't get too cozy. There are like twelve billion of me. Let's fight on the freeway.
GUY WHO WAS NARRATOR ON OZ: Hey, it beats butt rape.
ORACLE: Am I good? Am I evil? You must believe in the why of your choices.
JADA PINKETT SMITH: Like, why am I in this movie? Why not just stay home and f*ck Will?
NONA GAYE: Why not follow in my father's musical footsteps instead of attempt to wade through this convoluted plot?
THE WACHOWSKI BROS: Because Aaliyah kicked the bucket.
(Everyone does Kung Fu)
EXISTENTIALISM 101: I am that which you base your film upon, only grossly misunderstood.
NEO: Whoa.
AUDIENCE: What the SH*T?
AGENT SMITH: I'm going back to Lord of the Rings, guys.
LIV TYLER: Daddy!
(They embrace)
MORPHEUS: The future of Zion is still unclear.
THEODORE GEISL: Did someone say Zion?
(Everyone dodges bullets)
TO BE CONCLUDED

So they are saying if the 3,000 Elronds throw The Neo ring into Mt Doom then we will be free of Keanu Reeves' acting forever? Sounds good to me

At the theater the other day, I saw previews for the third LOTR and the third Matrix.

Quote:

From the Lord of the Rings 3 preview

"We must fight. As long as Frodo is alive, he has a chance..."

Quote:

From the Matrix: Revolutions preview

"We have to hold off the machines. As long as Neo is alive, he won't give up..."

Those are pretty much the quotes as I remember them...and no, I'm not joking either! The similarity is striking...
