    "Meta is easy. Meta might just be the easiest thing you can do. Actors spend their whole careers resisting the urge to look at the camera; meta just means giving in to those temptations. Meta might seems clever, as deep as an endlessly-recursive hole, but I think it's more like an infinity mirror: surprisingly easy to setup and gives the illusion of depth by just reflecting back on itself. That perceived cleverness makes meta a highly-prized gimmick, which mean if you want to min-max the effort-to-payoff ratio, there's no better way than meta."- Matthewmatosis

    This movie is the epitome of cheap, Reddit-tier self-awareness, where it points out all of its flaws/tropes in some vague attempt to be smart or to critic-proof itself, while at the same time not doing anything at all to fix those problems. I mean at the end of the day, actions do speak louder than words, and admitting that you have a problem is only the first part of rehab.

    "Lana was very keen for me to be a part of [The Matrix 4]. I really wanted to because I’m very, very fond of all of them. I had some initial reticence about the idea of going back to revisit The Matrix, after having already done three films, but then I read the script and got an offer to my agent. I immediately responded yes to that, and then we went into negotiation. I was doing a play, at the time, but we were working out dates and things so that I could do both. And then, Lana decided that she didn’t wanna change her dates, so I couldn’t do it. In a nutshell, that’s what happened." - Hugo Weaving

      For one, opinions can't be "wrong", and any clear cut example you probably have against that simply is not an opinion.
      For two, let's just say that you meant something more correct, like stupid or awful, and that's not a whole not better, because it's also just not true; most things aren't super-divisive, the majority lean one way on most things for a reason. Master of Disguise is not a great movie just because almost everyone hated it. If it's widely hated, it's probably bad; if it's widely loved, it's probably good. That's not always the case of course, but it is more often than it's not, and that's the exact opposite of what you said.

    Seeing this in theaters I was initially kind of excited, because very rarely does a movie just blatantly say “fuck you specifically, person who financed this” while also calling its viewers AND its creators idiots, while acknowledging that everyone is trapped in a loop of almighty commerce. I looked forward to a full length film of them just taking the piss. But they were cowards and didn’t commit to the bit.
    And then the middle was just mediocre and confusing and made me sad at the state of the franchise.
    And the ending was genuinely upsetting, because they wasted an ACTUALLY REALLY COOL sci-fi premise. Far future Earth, after the wars, after the Matrix, humans and machines no longer divided along lines of organic and metallic, but on lines of ideology, of “do we like this new world, or do we want to keep fighting and return to the old ways and try to win?”

    Would that make the movie "better"?... No. I suppose it would make a lot of the dialogue better but that doesn't change the fact that the worldbuilding was so dull, the action scenes look awful compared to the original and I found every single performance in "Resurrections" to be unbearable.

    I didn't liked the overall movie on my first watch. But there were still parts that I definitely found very well made, that worked and were interesting.
    After my second watch, I could better place and understand what the filmmaker was trying to accomplish. I did understood that it was a small movie, I mean on the level of conflict. It's a love story about two old relics who died and got the chance to come back and find each other again.
    After my third watch I literally had tears at the ending when Neo and Trinity run to each other in slo-mo with the music building up and grab each other's hands.
    The Matrix Resurrections is basically a retelling of the story of Orpheus who goes to the underworld in order to bring back his deceased loved one Eurydice. As heaving lost my mother at a young age, I completely understood what Lana Wachowski was going for in this movie when she said the death of her parents was the jumping board of inspiration for this film.
    People who are saying this movie is woke trash are completely missing the point. For example, Bugs was a fun character. There was no disrespect towards Neo from her part or arrogance in general whatsoever. Neither was that the case for the rest of the characters. If they handled Luke Skywalker the same way in The Last Jedi, it would have been a better film. I'm all for subverting expectations when done right. The Matrix Resurrections, being a masterpiece, succeeds where The Last jedi fails.
    P.S.: The Matrix Resurrections made me even appreciate Reloaded and Revolutions more.

    Watched it once sober and was underwhelmed, watched it high the second time and I feel it was made to be watched in that format.

    Very glad to see you calling out the tongue in cheek meta bulletin as not clever. This whole movie reminded me that not only should I rewatch the original matrix but I should also rewatch 22 jumpt street where they actually pulled that style off.

    I would refer to Renegade Cut’s video on this film. It’s a pretty interesting interpretation on how the film is much more specific to lana wachowski’s experience as a trans woman. Not that it makes up for the overall quality of the film itself, but thought it was an interesting way to look at it.

      @@DanCrippsey maybe she didn’t want to make it, but was more concerned over the idea of factory farming more sequels like warner brothers almost certainly considered. Guess she wanted to just give some finality to spite the studio pressure exerted.
      Could just have been that there isn’t really anything else you can do with this franchise. It’s certainly indicative of how major studios are investing less than ever on original media, and are instead clinging to brand recognition for quick profit.
      Maybe toning down was the point. Maybe lana didn’t even want to make this film. Maybe that was the point. Maybe the matrix of the film is one that reflects our expectations. Maybe we weren’t even supposed to watch it. Maybe doing that would make us subsume into our own matrix. The interesting line early on is the paradox of the pills, where you made the decision before the question was presented. Who knows? It’s all about the spectacle.

    10:12 I heard about this moment, but I had no idea. That was so much worse than I expected. That on its own is a damning stamp of failure. That was like a knife in the gut. Nothing about that delivery was right.

    I stand by this movie, not because I think it's bad on purpose, but because I honestly think the team tried their best. It's less Sharknado, and more Neil Breen in my eyes. For me, the hackneyed meta stuff felt more like the team trying to have fun with the audience, despite having a flop on their hands. If you're a fan of the original trilogy, I could see you really hating this movie. But given the trajectory of the franchise, this the best Matrix 4 I could imagine.

    FMV (Full Motion Video) video games were rather common in 1999, as they were easier to produce and were considered more immersive at the time than their 3D counterpart. It's actually extremely plausible that a video game in 1999 would have real actors and even have the guy who made the video game as one of the (if not the main) actor. It was EXTREMELY common.

      If that were the case, then the resolution of the clips should be very low and the clips very pixelated since those CD, cartridges or whatever had little memory; but the clips look quite high resolution.
