The Matrix reboot in the works

They're rebooting The Matrix.

'The Matrix' Reboot in the Works at Warner Bros. (Exclusive)

This will bomb in a big way for all kinds of reasons.

 

Why?

 

Because there's money to be made from The Matrix name and brand.

 

no Wachowskis ! no movie ! sorry but it will suck! this reminds me of the terminator releases these past 20 years that have sucked!

 

Even with them the movies sucked (See: the sequels, which were some of the most pretentious pieces of crap I've ever seen).

 

Uggghhh, no thanks.

 

I think not. The sequels were awful and that's what people remember.

I think Avatar is the latest movie that drew audiences to the theatre because of the effects. Matrix did that too, almost ten years before.

I don't think new movies can lure people out because of thrilling effects. That ship has sailed. So what will be the point of a new Matrix?

 

Funny, I only remember the first one.

 

April fools' day stuff

 

Uh, you haven't seen a calendar lately, have you?

 

It's the only one of the three worth remembering.

 

ha ha, I know; but a Matrix reboot is a joke and so it's 1st April worthy

 

Lucky you.

 

The MATRIX series is Case Study One in how science fiction franchises tend to make less and less sense the more their particular concept is trotted out and expanded.

 

It doesn't help that it was created by a pair of nutbags with their heads way up their butts with their philosophical gibberish.

 

Wow, what do you really think? The first movie was excellent and a landmark in many ways. It has influenced many other filmmakers and copycats. Unfortunately, Hollywood success demands sequels to extract ever drop of profit before the property is run into the ground, which is what happened with the sequels. But that doesn't detract from the original film in any way.

 

The original has a lot of the nonsense in it too- it's all pseudo-intellectual stuff meant to make the story (which is really pretty simple) into something "deep" and "meaningful". It's just that they ramped it up to 10 in the sequels.

 

I STILL say they should made Agent Smith 'the one'!

 

Google Agent Smith you will lots of stuff Vince.

Wouldn't mind seeing how it all started in the very beginning.

 

Yeah well, Star Wars fans said that and ask them how well that worked out.

 

This is why we can't have nice things.

 

Exactly my thoughts.

 

Why not boot instead of reboot?
