SANDLER: Do you take naps during the day like me? PLAZA: No, I can’t take naps. I don’t know how to do that. I’m a psycho. SANDLER: When your parents told you to go take a nap, you just had your eyes wide open, staring at the ceiling? PLAZA: Probably. I need to learn how to meditate or something. SANDLER: I don’t have good naps. I have sad, sweaty naps, and I wake up upset.

Powerful Two-Hander posted:Those robots were cool but I feel like they should have had some actual armour instead of being open cockpit death traps eh, I could see the argument for this. the squids didn’t have projectiles but their cutting lasers made short work of even ship hulls, so once one got to you you were immediately hosed either way, and they could use the resources saved on armor to build a few more mechs

probably the most organic matrix 4 is if the ‘real world’ is also the matrix, humans as computational power etc. and neo as a program is just restarting the cycle again given the footrakes each sequel has found im sure it’ll be dumber and disappointing oh poo poo he’s transcends the matrix and sees on code gonna free them reloaded: nah just means he can cosplay superman and he’s got the sadbrains lol reloaded cliffhanger: like oh wait neos powers work outside the matrix? maybe it’s all matrix? revolutions: nope, gotta go to a specific physical location instead of just persistent, distributed network that surrounds everything, for some reason? anyway time for le epic clone tool battle

i am sympathetic to marvel tv fans who were disappointed because their show characters didn’t get a cameo in the big mcu movies but matrix sequels are a good counter argument to keep it contained these guys were really crazy in the manga! they’re Universal monster movie crew! gotta set up this crew for the mmo! still not as hilarious as fortnite palpatine tho

PCjr sidecar posted:revolutions: nope, gotta go to a specific physical location instead of just persistent, distributed network that surrounds everything, for some reason? that part actually makes sense, if matrix security policy is anything like high-security real-world networks there will be services so important that remote management is entirely forbidden so you have to go to where the hardware is and pass through real-world security plus it gave us the shot of the hovercraft breaking through the clouds into blue sky, which is the best moment in movie 3 PCjr sidecar posted:i am sympathetic to marvel tv fans who were disappointed because their show characters didn’t get a cameo in the big mcu movies these people should also remember how the first half of agents of shield season 1 sucked precisely because they tried to sync it to the movies

My hope for Matrix 4 is that it is just one movie. A single, focused, complete story which doesn't try to set up two sequels. That was what got them in 2 and 3, too much universe. Scale it back, stop explaining things that don't need it.

I want to believe Keanu wouldn’t have come back if it wasn’t a really compelling story, but he also came back for 2 and 3 so

That was back when Keanu was still kind of a joke in the biz, iirc. I don't think he has anything to prove these days. He could probs retire on John Wick megabux alone. Who knows though. Hollywood studios never pass on a chance to gently caress up something that should be an easy win.
