The last 2 Matrix movies were universally shytted on. So why even make 4th?

[StretfordRed]

To be honest, I watched again yesterday and the 2nd and 3rd were perfectly fine. They were action films and the script and meaning of the film was really meta and not easy to comprehend.

Once I got older, watched Animatrix and Enter the Matrix cut scenes, then it all made a lot more sense.

I actually feel bad for rubbishing the films originally.

 

[Neo. The Only. The One.]

Everybody's a movie critic now

It's odd, out of all three Reloaded is the one I have not seen multiple times. Saw it at the theater once and probably one other time, meanwhile I used to watch the shyt out of the first one and I copped the dvd of Revolutions back in the day.

Need to download that shyt to refresh my memory.

I actually enjoyed the 2nd one.

2,3,1 in that order of how good the movies were.

Reloaded was great until the very end

Revolutions was ass

Still puzzled how no one until Neo had ever survived an encounter with an agent, and yet in Reloaded there were STILL people in Zion on some "Yeah but it's he REALLY The One?"

I enjoyed all three. Perception of the quality of The sequels suffers from what I call the Illmatic phenomenon. It was too dope.

plus like someone said, if you understand the history and lore, the sequels are much more enjoyable.

Freeway chase saves Reloaded. Revolutions was just a bloated kind of a mess. Haven't watched it in many years tho.

Haven’t watched Revolutions since it came out in theaters. Thought it was alright, remembered the box office numbers for opening weekend were a tad lower than Reloaded.

Now, Reloaded was lit! Not just the film itself, but cats were hyped up going to see that shyt. I saw it at a Black theater here in Chicago, it was off the chain.

I’ma watch all 3 as a refresher (and show my son if he’s interested) before catching the new one at the show. Dolby or 3D will be a must!

 

[SmarkMero]

Why a 4th?.....Think of what they could do then, NOW!

 

[Geek Nasty]

I enjoyed all the Matrix movies and I'm not even into that over stylized John Woo-ish fighting. I didn't like the first one as much as other people did and I didn't shyt on the last 2 the way others did. They're good popcorn movies with a GOAT premise and visuals, not much more than that.

 

[Silver Surfer]

Gonna do a rematch soon

Ironically it was the movie critics who shytted on the sequels.
