Official The Matrix Resurrections Thread

Nah, had to turn this shyt off when the black guy and the little insect robot did the fist pump This is laughably bad

She’s not the first one to do that lol. Joe dante did it, Coppola did it, Lucas did it.

It doesn’t always work for me but I love when a creator bucks the idea that the creation belongs to the fans once it’s out in the world and they make the rules. It’s controversial yeah but it’s better than playing it safe. Safe is how we get JJ Abrams

Its borderline trolling though, that Gremlins analogy is apt. Resurrections felt like a parody for the first half, unlike Gremlins 2 which committed to it the entire film. This film did all that meta analysis, criticism of corporate Hollywood only to fall right into generic scifi nonsense. Keep in mind G2 is another sequel that WB wanted made, despite the director's protest, until they WB threw enough money at them.

Its like the Lana was apologizing beforehand. She clearly didn't want to make this film. Who was this film for, WB?

I ended up watching this twice yesterday (once alone and once with the fam) and I was thoroughly underwhelmed. I didn’t expect it to be amazing but this film really thought it was smarter than it actually was.

I understood all of the commentary and “rejection” of the original trilogy but this film was literally just an exposition dump with the occasional (poorly choreographed) action sequences. Surely, the themes could have been presented more subtly so the viewers actually had to think.

Someone please explain Neil Patrick character to me. He seems important but i stopped paying attention and fell asleep a few times

the only thing that stood out to me in the entire film was the white girl with finger waves and baby hairs

they should’ve just remade the original with new young actors (zendaya) and a different director

jada pinkett character was

so glad I didn’t watch this in a actual movie theater

 

[OmegaK2099]

I liked it

 

[Majestyx]

"meta" is not a new word

it's been in film/television discussions for years

and as a word itself for beyond that.

its not new, but man have people been using the fukk out of it every chance they get.

2nd run it only gets worse

Fans when WB announced all movies would hit HBO Max day 1.

Fans after seeing the quality of movies we received.

He's the maker of the new matrix

 

[DoubleClutch]

He's the maker of the new matrix

When exactly did they reveal this? I must’ve been sleep

I thought Neo made it (the game that is). I figure the old matrix never stopped existing. People just were put back in it

 

[kdslittlebro]

or why not create a new character? It just seemed like they would pull that bullshyt reboot on a black character

Basically placed a whole new Nebuchadnezzar and crew, but pulled that shyt with Morpheus
