Comment on What’s your favorite “flop” of all time?
SmoothLiquidation@lemmy.world 1 week agoIt felt to me that the studios told the directors that they were going to reboot the franchise if they didn’t make a new one, so the writers decided to just make that the plot.

And what a great nose rub to the studio it was! :)
I think the movie stands on its own however. I didn’t like Matrix 2&3 but Resurrections made them irrelevant. We got an ending to the story that included both Neo and Trinity and we got some ambiguity in place of convoluted lore, which is good for something as crazy as Matrix. It’s basically Matrix 1 reboot/remake that prevent another terrible follow-up. Making fun of CGI-heavy actions flicks was just a cherry on top.
