The Matrix 4 (2021) - Page 2 - Blu-ray Forum

Somebody at work told me a theory about the original trilogy that kept me thinking--

[Show spoiler]

Makes me want to re-evaluate the trilogy in that context.

But that's the whole thing, as everybody else is saying--the three movies (and animes) are fine as-is and hold up, it doesn't need a reboot. Nobody's asking for it. I could take a sequel, prequel, spin-off (and the material is there already--per Reloaded, the Matrix history goes back through five or six other versions of "The One," so there could be many possibilities for more films or even a TV series). But reboot?! Hell no.

WB, let's talk.

Just because someone decided to make a movie based off Ghost in the Shell, that doesn't mean you have to rush and pull the closest thing you have in your IP closet out for a remake. For starters, they're not even that close. We don't even know if GITS is going to make that much money. The Matrix is already a pretty good movie and even though it's approaching drinking age, it hasn't withered. Besides, you're already preoccupied with ruining your DCU stable. You don't need to ruin everything you own.

Thank you.

That reminds me, I wonder what's become of that Neuromancer adaptation? Will it ever see the light of day? (wikipedia says it's in a Chinese company's hands now)

And a Snow Crash movie is in the works.

Big cyberpunk wave is coming our way. I can see why WB wants to surf on it now.

Maybe Keanu can convince WB to do a sequel with him as the lead instead of this reboot crap. I mean, he is on top of his game currently and audiences love him in the John Wick films. He is hot NOW, and people want more badass action films with him as the lead. This would be a good time to the The Matrix 4 and John Wick: Chapter 3 right after that.

Remember when The X-Files revival was called a "reboot"? More recently, the Twin Peaks revival keeps being referred to as "reboot" by the media.

Considering how misused that term has become this'll end up being a sequel/prequel/spinoff etc. Existing in the same universe but focusing on new characters.

Then it should have Jaden Smith as Neo and Kevin Hart as Morpheus.

WB: "Makes too much sense, does not compute."

I'm surprised it took WB this long.

The first film is perfect.

One of the finest science fiction films to ever be made with one of the craziest, coolest theories ever proposed about our existence.

Hopefully not... wasn't it going to be directed by someone whose previous claim to fame was Britney Spears videos?
