I love how Neo's and Trinity's sleeping pods were not guarded by a single robot. They literally extracted the two most important pods with barely any resistance, twice and within a few days of each other.

[@ikigai4life437]

Yes, little surprised that wasn’t mentioned as “barely an inconvenience”

[@Gabi-ub8md]

Yeah, since I wasn't understanding much of the plot by that point, I assumed there was some reason for why no one was guarding the pods and I just didn't catch it.

[@rmsgrey]

a) Quis custodies ipsos custodiet? How do you make sure the machine you let go in and spend time unobserved with your very important prisoner isn't going to help free them? After all, they let a couple of machines in and that's how they lost Neo... b) Did you miss the part where they had to sneak past an entire army of sentinels, using specific abilities unique to members of the party, requiring them each to pass their individual skill checks?

[@daryjackson8296]

Man, a whole bunch of stuff was not thought through.

[@roybatty-]

@@rmsgrey During the second extraction they had a party on top of Trinity's pod. Two people, two robots and Morpheuses molecular being. And they were there for a solid 15-30 minutes. The stability of the entire system depended on those two pods. To not leave a single sentinal there on 24/7 watch is just plot convenience.

Best moment of the pitch, specially as the "Have you ever had a dream..." is one of the original Morpheus' most recognized lines.

The guy who played Agent Smith had an impossible task at hand. Hugo Weaving was simply irreplaceable as Agent Smith

[@Dargonhuman]

Same for Fishbourne, honestly. They were both so iconic in those roles that I can't help but think of them as Agent Smith and Morpheus whenever I see them in other movies.

[@robertcooper457]

I'd assume that's why he called Neo Tom throughout and not Mr Anderson, no one could do that part quite like Hugo Weaving.

[@yopedraza]

In spite of that, I feel like he did a good job. The actors did their bit I think. I wish we could've focused more on Buggs, I think that actress is very captivating and could've delivered a great performance had the story worked her character better

[@k--music]

I thought it was such an odd choice to have them both in it, but be different versions of the same characters for some reason. Just made me constantly compare them to the old versions, when they could have just introduced a different villain (which they did) and a different ship captain / guide for Neo (which they also did)... yeah now that I think of it they could've both just not been in it at all

[@HafidzMurshidie]

Yeah, but Jonathan Groff could at least act a little like Hugo Weaving does in the original trilogy.. Like what Bane actor does in the third one, he’s so good at impersonating Hugo Weaving, I bought that he’s actually possessed by Agent Smith.. I’m not saying that there’s only one way to act, but you know.. It felt like a different character entirely, might as well just create a new character..

Smith never actually wanted to Kill Neo, he just rocked up before the merovigian and wanted to talk things out, was even like, pretty please? The weird inconsistency was at the very start where he first momentarily woke up and started shooting at him in the office. But I suppose you could chalk it up to him being a bit disorientated?

I absolutely LOVED "The Matrix Resurrections". For twenty years I have heard rumors about bringing Matrix back. And I could never understand - WHY? In my mind, the original Matrix Trilogy was and still is, an absolute MASTERPIECE of modern cinematography. An apex of film making, story telling, creativity and talent - in every aspect. The BEST movie, by far, that I have seen before or after. I could not understand why someone would try to change or alter the perfection. And now, when "The Matrix Resurrections" hit the theaters and right after hit the filthy rock bottom, I can only say THANK YOU. "The Matrix Resurrections" was SO BAD in fact, that I believe I would finally stop once and for all, attempts to add something to the story so well told.
