Morpheus died in the Matrix mmo shortly before it ended. The Wachowskis consider the game to be cannon so there’s nothing to be done. It’s not some conspiracy against Fishburne and I don’t know why outlets refuse to include that info
From the article:
However, there could be a fairly simple explanation there: Morpheus dies in the MMO game The Matrix Online. That specific event in the game is considered canon because the writer-directors, the Wachowskis, gave their approval to the game.
Damn, I got caught not reading the article
The new one was underwhelming. They should have stopped with the original three.
I truly believe Resurrections was a purposeful flop to demonetize/kill the series to prevent WB making additional sequels or maybe remakes.
Well, they are making more so that kills that
I think they just failed. The Wachowskis aren’t writing or directing.
They should have stopped with the first one.
And now get off my lawn!And not get a fantastic sequel?? M2 was fantastic and the 3rd one was good too
I thought the second one was weak, the third one was ok though
The new one is just the first one redone… The parallels were so forced though so hard the message was drowned out
The writing is great, it’s where they meet Hollywood that the films start to flag. I mean, even from the premise - the machines using us as batteries is stupid, the original idea of them using us as processors is way better
They should have stopped with the original one. None of the follow-ups were as good as the first. It’s just been a decrescendo in story writing ever since.
They are developing a new matrix movie?
I watched The Matrix Resurrections at home and I gave up halfway through, still haven’t finished it. There were some cool scenes in the early part of the movie that were almost breaking the fourth wall and seemed to pick up the spirit of the introductory scenes in The Matrix, but Resurrections were quickly started to go down the drain.
Resurrections is an excellent protest movie, in the punk vein.
It was protesting exactly the type of exploitation that Warner brothers did with the matrix.
The film is akin to a new lassie film. Only the film ends with lassie being staked out in the sun and flayed alive by a teenage sociopath, whimpering the entire time. It’s a massive fuck you, intended to kill the franchise. There was just enough plausible deniability to get away, and avoid being sued for it.
I watched it. The plot really only served as an extended middle finger to Warner Bros. After I finished it, I just thought, what a waste. It had promise, but it didn’t try anything new or expand the world in any way.
To me, it suffered the same issue that all reboots have (Jurassic World, Rise of Skywalkwer, etc.). They don’t attempt a new plot and instead try to rehash the original plot but “bigger”, this makes it boring really quick as you know what’s going on, so instead they rely on nostalgia bait or jump tactics to try to keep you engaged.
